Write up from the Commanding Business podcast.

Knowing who you are are being clear about what you want can be some of life’s biggest challenges. Make an appointment with yourself for a self discovery session. Use basic questions as tools to clean out your subconscious of all the data energy that has been stored for years. Gratitude can help to put life into perspective. Where your awareness goes your energy will go. Give as much value to your energy as you do your money and you will have more of both. Finish what you begin.
