Feng shui is all about creating and maintaining balance. Whether we’re talking about homes, businesses, our personal lives, we each have different likes and dislikes that can create a sense of imbalance in our lives. In many cases, it’s not what happens that matters; it’s how we respond to what happens that can make or break us psychologically and emotionally.
Let’s Get Into Some Mistakes Your Feng Shui Consultant Might Be Making:
Mistake #1: “Your Career/Business/Other Project Will Come to You”
This is a common mistake. For some people, feng shui alone can make desired outcomes appear out of thin air. But this isn’t how it works! If you want to achieve a certain outcome or an improvement in your life – whether it’s a new job, a promotion at work, or even a new relationship, you need to take proactive steps towards your measurable goals.
The problem is that most people think feng shui only takes care of the “outcomes” for them… but this isn’t how it works! The universe will not send an abundance of money, love, or any other good thing into your life by itself.
Of course, you can use feng shui to attract positive things into your life, but if you want to enjoy the best possible outcome for anything that matters to you, it’s important to remember this: You have to take action! Leonardo da Vinci is famously quoted as saying, “Realize that everything connects to everything else.”
Your feng shui consultant can help you set up your environment so that outcomes are more likely to come to you, but you have to work for it. Feng shui works in mysterious ways, but remember this – it’s not magic!
Mistake #2: Ignoring Your Health
In many cases, we can put our health on the back burner when we focus on achieving other goals. In some cases, neglecting our health can be the best strategy, but not if you want to make your dreams come true!
If you neglect your health to achieve your goals, it’s likely one or more of these things will happen:
- Negative outcomes (like failing relationships, bids for contracts/jobs that don’t go well) can deplete our energy and leave us feeling ill. This could lower our chances of success even further!
- If we suffer from an injury or illness that prevents us from working towards our goals at all, then this will stop us dead in our tracks – possibly permanently.
- Take it to the extreme and consider someone who gets very sick because they live on nothing but fast food. This person might fail to accomplish their goals not so much because they’re unhealthy, but because they don’t have the energy left to pursue them!
Mistake #3: Giving Up Too Soon
When we don’t have much experience with feng shui or even with inner work, it can feel incredibly empowering when we notice improvements in our lives due to this kind of work. But if you give up too soon, your results might not come through as quickly or as powerfully as they could have!
For example, let’s say that you resolved to be more creative at work because you’ve been struggling lately. You read a few books on creative thinking and came up with a plan for yourself that involved several changes in your life, including new thinking habits. But when things don’t seem to be changing through these new habits after a week or two, you think, “this isn’t working,” and you give up.
The fact is that if you follow this plan for months or even years instead of just weeks, you have a much better chance of reaching the point where it’s natural for you to be creative! And once this happens, not only will it feel natural to come up with ideas all the time – but your good vibrations about being creative might also attract people who are interested in hiring someone like yourself.
