This manifestation trick is so fast, so easy, and so effective that you won’t believe it actually works. If you’re a visual thinker, this is totally going to change the game for you — even if you’re not, there are ways you can incorporate it into your life in a positive way.

Laura Day, author of “The Circle,” teaches a manifesting method similar to this — but we’ve put our own little spin on it. Here’s how it works… picture a circle in your mind with you at the center. You’re a magnet in the center of your circle. Place other things that you desire for the day in the circle. Feel them in your presence and imagine that you are attracting them to you. Just by putting them in your circle and keeping them in your mind, it will force you to take action. If you’re not a visual thinker, physically draw out a circle and hand-write what you want to attract inside of it.

That’s it! When you picture what you want, you bring it to the forefront of your mind, subconsciously encouraging yourself to take action towards those goals. It’s dead simple; imagine your circle and draw in the life that you want.

 

We’re talking to the powerhouse ladies behind The Product Boss, Jacqueline Snyder and Minna Khounlo-Sithep. I never thought I would have a physical product, but after talking to people, I got really excited about the potential. This is for anyone who’s thinking of launching a product, wants to grow their existing product, or is still in the early days of simply starting a business. This will spark something within you or reignite the fire that’s already burning.

 

Question Highlights:

• What got you interested in products?
• Why are you obsessed with creating multiple streams of income?
• How do you know what platform is right for you?
• What advice do you have for introverts in business?
• What’s something that is now second nature that used to feel painful?
• What’s a block that you want to strip away this year?

Jennifer Parrott had struggled with her hair her whole life. She started getting extensions when she was 15 years old but she could never find a product that was all-natural, cost-effective, and non-damaging. She put together a business-plan, but put it on pause when she became pregnant with her son. While on maternity leave, she decided it was now or never and finally took the leap. Fast forward to today and she’s featured in several national retailers and still expanding! She asks how to embrace fear and discomfort, and how much she should be sharing online. We also talk about how her experience when her son contracted leukemia led to a whole new, philanthropic side of her business.

 

Questions Asked:

• I know you’ve talked a lot about embracing fear and I completely subscribe to the notion that everything great sits on the other side of our fears. Can you share some tips on how to get through those uncomfortable moments and manage anxiety, as well as how to keep embracing and moving towards the things that scare us the most?

• I really struggle with how much I should share about my personal and professional life on social media. On one side, I feel like I should keep so much private – especially the really messy stuff (i.e. skirting bankruptcy more times than I’d like to admit, how hard it is to ‘balance’ growing a company, and trying to be a good mom, wife, friend, etc.). On the other hand, I feel like it’s so important to share the bumpy road that it’s been. What are your top tips for building a personal brand? How do you manage to do such an amazing job focusing on your businesses as well as your personal brand?
