Creator-based® Calamities


 Oh my gosh! I made a mistake and it’s a calamity!  Did you see last week’s post? The word ‘because’ was where the word ‘becoming’ should have been! Eeeeeeeek!  It made no sense and looked so bad!

The things I send out should be perfect right? Wrong.  I’m not perfect.  You’re not perfect.  Why would what I write be perfect?


A Creator-based® life is a whole new way to view (and make) mistakes.


Mistakes can be our safety/pressure release valve.  Have you ever been so crazy busy and frazzled that you make dumb mistakes? That happens to me all the time.  I get all up in my head and start to stress.  Then I goof up.


When I goof up I generally have two options-  berate myself & admit defeat, or forgive in love and move forward.  


Could there be a third option? What if I saw that mistake as an opportunity to notice the speed at which I was moving, take a breath, and choose to restore my focus?


What if I chose to immediately focus on the mistake, deeply and singularly seeing it and then, course correct?  What if I stayed in that loving place and was grateful for the mistake that brought me back to the present?


Seriously, a mistake is a gift. It’s the perfect time to breathe, accept, and move forward on a better, singular path, a little more slowly and probably more sanely.


So, are mistakes catastrophic? Not usually.  Usually, they are a sweet reminder of our humanness, and a call to slow down a little, refocus, and be grateful.


Could you be grateful for that misspelled word or that fender bender? Even when it’s crazy and public?  Maybe.  Try it and see.


Here are the steps:

  • Mistake 
  • Permission to be human  
  • Recognize I was unfocused 
  • Grateful for the reminder  
  • Become present, refocus (fix the mistake)and move forward again


Backward law #3 Slowing down allows us to do more.


That’s how we live a Creator-based® life, embracing one mistake at a time and making something better from it.


Have an amazing week y’all!


love,

Beth

When the Path Looks Different than You Planned....

  Monday Morning Inspiration Faith Fueled, Creator Led. You’re Not Failing—You’re Becoming.   Sweet friend, if you’re feeling weary today… if your dreams feel too far off and your heart is heavy with the weight of trying—this message is for you.   Take a deep breath. Let it out slowly. And hear this with your whole soul: You are not failing. You are  becoming.   This is not the end of your story—it’s the middle. And the middle is always messy and meaningful. Creator-Based® Coaching teaches us that  you are the Creator of your life experience. You hold within you light and truth, the very spark of divine power.    That means no matter what has happened before this moment, you still get to choose what happens next. And you don’t have to do it alone. LISTEN TO THE PODCAST on Spotify One of the most sacred truths we teach is this:  Different is not deficient.   We are different by divine design.   If your path doesn’t look like her...

When you feel stuck in the waiting.... Monday Morning Inpiration can help!

  Monday Morning Inspiration Faith Fueled, Creator Led. Okay friend, let’s talk about one of the hardest and holiest parts of healing:  waiting.   I don’t know about you, but I used to think if I wasn’t “getting there” fast enough—spiritually, emotionally, physically—I must be doing something wrong. And girlfriend, let me tell you... that lie ran deep.   But here’s what the Creator-based® Way has shown me:  Patience isn’t punishment. It’s a partnership with our Creator.  It’s not about sitting still with clenched fists, begging for a breakthrough. It’s about surrendering to God’s perfect pace, learning to rest, and willingly learning in the process. Patience is actually one of the sweetest gifts from God. It’s not about waiting perfectly—it’s about trusting deeply.   Dick Schwartz names patience as one of the 5 P’s of Self, and there’s a reason it’s right at the center.  Patience is what gives our inner world the space to breathe.  It’s what ...
