How To Use Mindset To Unleash Your Consciousness | What’s the difference between mindset in consciousness? In my opinion, mindset is just the path that helps unleash our consciousness. The more we undo our old programming the more we can hone in our own true essence. IMO psychology and spirituality always work best hand in hand!
Thank you so much for watching!
Imagine it now: feeling, living and breathing success.
Success consciousness is the ultimate state of mind. It’s that wonderful way of creating your own success by believing in it before you see it.
And that has everything to do with successful manifesting!
Like I always say, manifesting is easy. People are hard! Shifting the gears inside your mind to move out of victim mode and into writing the reality you really want is crucial for your success, in both manifesting and in life!
Whatever you focus your energy and attention will always expand!
So why not use that consciously? Creating success consciousness is simply about moving towards success, starting from the inside out.
Creating success consciousness is simply a new way of doing life!
Mastering success consciousness is an awesome way to become a powerful manifestor! After all, if you truly believe that you’re unstoppable, what choice does the Universe have in the matter? It’s as good as done.
So the big question now is: how can you start to adopt success consciousness into your life?
You’re in just the right place! I’ve got four tips to get you started right here:
To be a success in life you’ve got to get this one part straight: you are not a victim.
Take a look at any successful person: are they telling you how hard their life has been? Are they giving you excuses? Are they pointing the blame finger at anyone else?
Of course not! That’s because success is self-made. Every success story has defied the odds in one way or another. Those people are writing their reality, not finding excuses for not living it.
If you want to follow their path, you’ve got to start taking responsibility for your life right now in order to start fixing it. If you’re sitting around waiting for someone to give you a break because of X/Y/Z then you’ll likely be waiting a very long time! You can moan and groan all you like but few people will give you an extra credit for your victimhood. That negativity is definitely not doing you any favors!
On the other hand, right now you can decide to be the hero of your own story. You can decide to overcome your past and write your future. But please just know, you can’t be a victim AND a hero at the same time! You only get one choice. So what’s it going to be?
Humans are natural storytellers! In many ways, that’s a beautiful thing. Stories bind us together. They allow us to understand each other. But there’s also a dark side to this talent of ours.
We’re also wonderful at creating stories that get in the way of our success. We all have stories about why we’re not where we want to be. Of course, those stories feel very real to us because there are elements of the truth in there. Maybe your boyfriend did dump you or your boss fired you or your professor gave you a really low grade on your final paper. But by continuing to hold up that story as the ultimate reason why you’re not doing what you want to do is totally false. You always a choice. You always get to go out there and succeed anyway, no matter what has happened to you.
Want proof? There are lots of people in the world who’ve come from terrible circumstances to do amazing things! The only real difference between you and them is mindset. Those people looked at their so-called limitations and kept going. They refused to be defined by them.
The way you think of yourself is the most important thing–and that has a lot to do with your story. So no matter where you’ve come from, it’s time for a rewrite. And here’s a big tip: remember you’re at the beginning, not the end! So where do you want to go from here? And who do you have to become in order to make that happen?
Worthiness is the secret key to successful manifestation! That’s because if you don’t deeply believe you’re worthy of your goals, you’ll never be able to manifest them. Instead, you’ll put up invisible blocks and barriers that get in the way of you claiming the things you want.
Shame is the tight-knit shield that’s covering up your worthiness! We all feel inherently shameful about certain topics or events in our life. That feeling of shame is what gets in the way of our worthiness. So, while it might not feel good in the moment, diving in and learning more about where your specific shame comes from is the only way to heal those wounds and to start feeling worthy of your goals.
But I get it: it’s common to think all that stuff from your past doesn’t matter any more! After all, we’re all grown up now right? But a surprising amount of our current motivations actually stem from major events in our past. It’s crucial that you put in the work to totally love and accept yourself (and your life!). Feeling deeply worthy of your goals is necessary for success consciousness!
Newsflash! My beautiful human, there’s something important I need you to know: you are meant to be happy. Life isn’t about working really hard forever and ever and putting off rewarding ourselves until we’ve hit artificial deadlines.
Every single goal of yours is there for a reason! You want those things because you want to feel good. But don’t make the mistake of putting all your eggs in one basket! There are a million ways to feel good so please don’t believe you have to wait in order to do that.
The happier you are, the better your energy is and the more beautiful things will naturally flow your way! Being in a high-vibe is crucial for successful manifesting.But it’s also more than that: being happy is the whole point of this human existence. Learning how to do it is just winning at life.
It’s not something that just happens. You can decide to create your own happiness any time you like! So stop waiting and start practice flexing those happiness muscles today!
The bottom line is that success starts on the inside. When you live it and breathe it, you’ll have no choice but to actually achieve it! Expecting success will have the very real effect of making it happen for you.
So go out and try it this week. And please come back and let me know how it went. I’d LOVE to hear your results with this!
Thank you so much for reading!

If you’ve been reading this site for a while, you’ll know that I frequently talk about the importance of listening to your intuition!
But even though I speak of this often, I still get a lot of questions about this topic!
Many find it confusing–and for good reason! Let’s be real: there are MANY voices inside of us each and every day.
So how do you know which voice to listen to?
First off, it’s important to understand that the internal chaos and contradictory messages are simply stemming from different parts of our consciousness. If it feels like there’s a war going on inside you, that’s because there is!
But this war is more complicated than just black vs white or good vs evil.
Intuition always comes from our heart or gut. It might be a form of wisdom from our higher self or maybe from the Universe itself. Your intuition is here to guide you both spiritually and emotionally through life.
However, it can be a little tricky to unearth. It often communicates without words and is much quieter than the bossy voice of your ego mind! Your intuition often allows you to just “know” something, without any rational reason or explanation. It takes practice to trust in this truth.
Our ego creates some problems for us but it’s not inherently evil or wrong! We all have an ego; it’s an important piece of our sense of self. So please don’t think the ego is something that can be eradicated entirely!
Your ego’s main job is to protect you, both physically and mentally (a very important job!). However, our ego is also heavily influenced by the world around us. The society and culture we grew up in and our past experiences and fears give our ego excess ammunition to work with! So the ego becomes overdeveloped in most people.
That means you don’t have to worry or stress or endlessly stress because you have a source of divine knowledge and knowing inside you at all times.
The only problem is separating that from our EGO–which can be very demanding, loud and–infuriatingly–logical.
So now that we understand the difference, let’s find out some sure-fire ways to tell the difference between your ego and your intuition.
One of the most tell-tale signs that the ego is in charge is a message of scarcity. The ego will always assume scarcity over abundance! Its got its own best interests in mind at all times, of course. But that means instead of trusting in abundance, it will panic and try to control or manipulate situations in order to get what it wants.
In contrast, your higher self understands the true abundant nature of the Universe!
It won’t freak out and try to micromanage things because it’s able to surrender and trust, knowing scarcity is just an illusion.
Ego will typically back up its choices with a long list of reasons why you should do it. The list of reasons (and justifications) is often logical and lengthy. It can be difficult to “argue” with such facts! But despite the evidence the ego is giving you, it doesn’t necessarily have the right answer.
Conversely, your true intuition will give you just one answer! No further explanation or justification is needed when you know the right answer. It might seem confusing to listen to that one answer because it doesn’t come with all the justifications that the ego provides! So just know that your intuition will still be right, no justification needed.
The ego absolutely LOVES to use things outside of itself to make itself feel better! For example, this can happen when relationships, shopping addictions, business or career success or even addiction to exercise become our primary source of confidence or happiness.
The major problem here is that (of course!) all of those external things can be taken away from us! And some of them don’t even work that well in the first place. It will only make you feel happy to have money when you compare yourself to people with less money than you. If you start comparing yourself to people with more money, you’ll start to feel badly about yourself again! So all those good feelings only come from an illusion.
The other problem here is that those outside solutions are never quite enough! The ego will keep promising you that you will feel good if only you push yourself a little farther–then a little farther again. But the finish line never really comes!
In comparison, our intuition doesn’t really care about those artificial pleasures! Your higher self knows the only real source of love comes from the inside. All that outside stuff is just a nice-to-have, not a primary source of happiness.
The ego is always grasping at knowing what’s best; that means sometimes it will jump wildly from one answer to the next, even if the answers are contradictory. This is just a wild attempt to retain control over a situation that it can’t truly control! If you keep changing your mind about something, then it’s a true sign the ego is in charge.
On the flip side, your intuition will not waver from its first choice! The message you receive might not be as loud but it will not change with time. It’s common to receive the same message or phrase over and over again.
Your intuition comes from your higher self: a place of self-love and acceptance! Conversely, your ego is often your inner mean girl: a voice of criticism and even contempt. If you’re convincing yourself to do something because “you’re stupid/fat/etc” then it’s a red flag that your ego has gained control!
Your intuition might not be as obvious to recognize, but it’s message will be neutral and free from self-hatred.
The ego always assumes the world is an unsafe place and it will do anything to keep you safe! Protecting us and creating boundaries is important but the ego tends to go a little overboard and keep us paralyzed rather than taking action even on things we truly want to do! The ego creates a false sense of control, which can be difficult to let go of!
Our intuition always comes from a place of love and security. The focus will be on expressing yourself, not on gaining control of a situation.
I hope this post gives you some clarity on which inner voice you should be listening to! When you’re used to living from your logical mind, it can be a real challenge to listen to your intuition at first! But there’s so much wisdom waiting there for you that it’s well-worth the effort.
Thank you so much for reading!
