Welcome to this meditation for visionary entrepreneurs.
(gentle relaxing music)
Life applauds your resilience and tenacity.
Entrepreneurship always came with its challenges,
but even moreso now.
Let's begin with a nurturing focus on you
and then we'll move on
to important aspects of your business.
Because you're busy,
because so many responsibilities and decisions await you,
it's all the more necessary that these 10 minutes
are spaciously taken to center yourself.
If you have to chop a tree, begin by sharpening your ax.
That's what meditation does.
It sharpens your awareness and helps you make clean cuts
where and when appropriate.
So please sit or lie comfortably.
Loosen the muscles between your eyebrows.
Unclench your jaw if it's been locked tightly.
Let your shoulders drop as if strong, heavy,
and friendly hands were resting on them.
(flowing relaxing music continues)
Bring your attention to the tiny muscles around your mouth.
Are you tense there,
or puckered as if you've just sucked something bitter?
Let a brightly colored fruity thought
come and sweeten your lips.
(gentle relaxing music)
Now take a moment to envision
some of the other vibrant and enlivening foods
that will nourish you today.
Care for yourself with at least one unhurried meal
with fresh aromatic herbs, spices for delicious flavors,
and with minerals, vitamins, and nutrients
that will energize your mind and body.
Consider the beloved humans and animals you may live with.
Feel their love for you, and likewise
extend your love to them.
Can you find more patience and forgiveness for them,
and for yourself?
(flowing relaxing music continues)
Give thanks for the caring touch
and hugs you have access to.
And if you don't have access to regular touch,
consider budgeting for regular massages.
Wholesome touch helps our humanity thrive.
Another flourishing factor is an orderly
and beautiful working environment
that supports your growth and idea generation.
Clutter and noise is normalized,
but it can significantly decrease mental performance.
It's fun to discover and use fragrances
that can elevate our feeling state
so that you conduct business from a place of grace,
generosity, and benevolence.
What are some fragrances that you associate with wellbeing?
(gentle relaxing music continues)
Maybe you can add a scented candle or essential oil diffuser
with that aroma to your workspace.
How about a curated playlist of songs
that help you focus, execute, or deliver?
However you may be inspired to,
create a bubble of tranquility for yourself.
Then see yourself carrying out your business
from that tranquility.
This is how positive virality is created.
Now let's give some favorable and energetic thought
to your marketing.
(flowing relaxing music continues)
The purpose of marketing is to attract
and magnetizing the right customers, clients,
and audience to you for the right reasons.
When you are fully activated, engaged,
and true to yourself,
what is it that you offer the marketplace?
Is it your best?
(flowing relaxing music continues)
Could you make it even better?
Can you expand your heart, mind, and imagination
and behold novel ways to over-deliver
to those who have entrusted you with their funds?
Be at ease while you ponder this for a bit.
(gentle relaxing music)
Identifying and hiring the right individuals
to support the functions of your business
will multiply your impact.
So we now call into operation clear seeing
for knowledgeable eyes that recognize value.
Retain it, reward it.
Delight in joyful collaborative genius
that enriches everyone involved.
When you cultivate a culture of kindness around yourself
others will gravitate toward you
and they want to remain nearby.
How does that thought about authentic magnetism
affect any ideas you may hold about marketing?
(gentle relaxing music continues)
Is it even possible to do what you are?
Can you actually hire others
and thereby enable and empower them
to do what they are?
Could you really be a part of a heavenly economy like that?
Of course it's possible.
And yes, you absolutely can contribute
to a heavenly economy like that.
In fact, it happens as a natural and effortless
sequence of events in proportion to the degree
that you are centered.
(gentle relaxing music)
These are just a few reasons why consistent meditation
is both essential and lucrative for entrepreneurs.
Being in business for yourself gives you the chance
to lean toward happiness, healthiness,
and a more beautiful perspective in the world.
Take every opportunity you can to level it up
just because it's in your power to do so.
Rumi said, "Wherever you stand,
"be the soul of that place."
Can you be the soul of your corner in the marketplace?
Entrepreneur is really just another word for alchemist.
It's now time to make some gold, my friend.
(flowing relaxing music)
This concludes our guided meditation
for visionary entrepreneurs,
but it does not conclude your ability
to defy limits set by others.
It does not conclude your capacity to live your values.
And it certainly doesn't conclude your connection
to tireless, bottomless support from life,
both within and around you.
Nothing can conclude that.
