A lot of people struggle to progress in their business.
They want to get more clients, get events happening and get the business success they know they’re capable of.
But not a lot of people actually do what it takes to take the right consistent action to go to the next level in contributing and succeeding.
I hear people say things like, “How has another week gone past and I still haven’t achieved X?”, or “How has another week gone by and I didn’t finish Y?”
When we don’t align what we’re doing on a day-to-day basis with our bigger goals and vision, we don’t have consistent progress. This causes us incredible frustration.
If you’ve noticed yourself in a pattern of putting hard things off, procrastinating or not following through on things you told yourself you’d do, this blog and video will help you.
What I love helping people in business with is not only WHAT to do, but WHY they are NOT doing things.
If you can ‘unplug’ the blockages, the flow starts to move again. It feels amazing!
It’s easy to get our head in our laptop and get stuck into actions and not think about whether they are the BEST actions to be doing right now.
Whenever I’m feeling like this, I love revisiting universal laws, because they are solid truth. Universal laws don’t change.
So, if want to perform at a higher level and improve your results – it helps to come back to universal laws.
Understanding universal laws can provide us with a compass to see where we’re currently at, and a roadmap for how we can move forward.
What I like to do is look at universal laws and truths through the lens of an entrepreneur and how to use them to grow in business.
There are many different universal laws, however, in this blog I’m going to talk about 3 of them.
1 – The Law of Vibration
The Law of Vibration states that “Everything in the universe has a frequency and a vibration,” “Nothing ever stands still, as everything is always either being pushed away from you or pulled towards you.”
Items of similar vibration are attracted to each other. So, to use this law to manifest what you want in business, you need to match your vibration with that of what you want.
Whatever you believe with feeling becomes your reality. You feel positive about yourself to the degree of your vibration. You feel negative about yourself to the degree of your vibration.
If you’re low, flat and annoyed, resentful and disappointed, you’ll attract more of those feelings. And we attract more of those things into our business and life.
If you’re feeling inspired, determined, confident and amazing, you attract more of that. You attract people who are also feeling like that way.
Have you noticed this in action?
Failure breeds failure. Success breeds success.
A client of mine recently said she’d never had a flat tyre in her life, and then she had 4 in 1 month. I locked myself out of my apartment 3 times in one week.
When you’re putting out positive vibes, positive things start to flow around you. I’ve seen this so many times in my life and the lives of people around me.
For me personally, when I get on a roll and things are going wrong like if I get angry, kick my toe, or smash a plate, this law is triggered. You attract that grumpy person at the post office or you find that everyone is driving slow when you’re in a big hurry.
What are you expecting to happen in your business? What are you actually expecting?
If you expect that you’re meant to be a great success in life, you’ll press through to your goals. Nothing will stop you.
But if you believe it’s just luck or a fluke, or it doesn’t really matter what you do today because nothing works, then you won’t push forward and you will be disappointed.
Happy people attract other happy people. A person with an abundant mindset attracts other people with abundant mindsets.
Everything you do and have in your life is because of who you are and who you have been. You can have and do more because you can change who you are being.
You can keep your thoughts on what you want and refuse to think about what you don’t want.
The more you think of yourself and your life as uniquely brilliant and important, the more you attract the resources, ideas, opportunities and people to help you become the person you see in your future.
You’re surrounded by the outcome of decisions you’ve made in the past. You are also fully capable of making other decisions and attracting a different set of circumstances.
If you’re in the vibration of consistency, you’ll keep showing up and being consistent and writing content and doing those FB Lives and running those webinars that are going to lead you to success.
The more you believe it, the more likely it will happen. If you keep telling yourself that webinars don’t work, or Facebook ads don’t work, you are creating your own self-fulfilling prophecy.
Your beliefs become your reality. You have to believe in your success and practice believing it. It takes work to raise your vibration.
Whatever you expect with confidence becomes your own self-fulfilling prophecy. What you get is not necessarily what you want in life, but what you expect.
Successful people expect to be happy, fulfilled, liked, and successful. People who show up at their events expecting to get clients are seldom disappointed.
Unsuccessful people have an attitude of pessimism, cynicism and negativity that causes situations to work out the exact way they are expecting.
The Law of Attraction and Vibration work in parallel with each other. You apply the law of Attraction and Vibration in your business by confidently expecting to gain something worthwhile from everything that’s happening to you in your life.
Instead of going down the path of negative thoughts that say it’s too hard, I can’t do this or things have gone terribly. Choose to confidently expect that things are going to work out for you.
Imagine if you lived your life absolutely convinced that everything was conspiring to make you happy and successful? I have an action prompt for each of these 3 universal laws.
The first one is – What is a question I could ask myself every day to prompt a positive vibration?
The questions we ask ourselves before we get up and before we go to sleep are the most important questions we can ask ourselves.
If we want to produce more, at a higher level and achieve more progress and productivity, we want to wrap our day with powerful questions.
This is one way to raise your vibration.Your unconscious mind goes to work on the question throughout the day or the night.
Morning Questions to Raise Positive Vibrations
- How can I best be of service today?
- Who needs me to be at my A-game?
- How can I be my most powerful and confident self today?
- How can I use my time most effectively today?
- How can I show kindness today?
I think to myself that I have a community of people watching my life (and so do you). You have a community of people watching your life and you have influence over them. I don’t take that responsibility lightly.
You can change someone’s mood with your vibration and positivity. The way that I show up affects other people.
Coaches know how much this is true. If you jump on a coaching call and you’re struggling, you can’t fake your vibration. It’s important that you start each day making powerful, positive choices that increase your positive vibration.
Evening Questions to Raise Positive Vibrations
- How many ways can I continue to become an even more effective coach?
- How many ways can I continue to become an even more wealthy business owner?
- How many ways can I trust more?
Using the law of vibration to our advantage is so motivating because it’s about our BFS – our Best Future Self. So it’s not just about having more money or more clients, it’s about the IDENTITY of WHO we want to be and see ourselves being in our future.
2 The Law of Correspondence
The Law of Correspondence states that your outer world is a reflection of your inner world. This is your true self. Your outer world of health corresponds to your inner world of beliefs about your health. Your outer world of finances corresponds to your inner world of beliefs about money.
When you work on your inner world, you start to reflect and produce the result in the outer world.
Our lives are created by the subconscious patterns we repeat every single day, and these patterns either serve us or hold us back. And most of our patterns are unconscious, in fact around 90% are on auto-pilot.
Any thought or idea that you accept as true in your conscious mind will be accepted in your subconscious mind. It’s really important what we put into our conscious mind what we want and not what we don’t want.
This is because your unconscious mind will immediately go to work to bring it into your reality, making all your words, feelings, actions and even body language fit a pattern that’s consistent with your dominant thoughts and goals.
If you look at someone who is hunched over and really small in their body, no doubt their dominant thoughts are negative about themselves.
We can activate this law by becoming aware of your own patterns, and then consciously taking action steps to break them. We need to be intentional about this.
We need to take time each day to soak your mind in positive and uplifting thoughts. Whatever you dwell on long enough and hard enough, will eventually materialise in the world around you.
The more you think about something, the more it comes towards you. This is where coaching is so powerful. We can’t see our own blind spots.
Coaches reflect our unconscious mind back to us. They reflect back what’s really going on in our inner world. If your business, or your health, your relationships, your finances are not thriving, you need to clean up your thinking.
So I have a simple challenge. Give yourself one word to focus on every week. It could be brave, joyful, inspiring, grateful, organised, flow, consistent, abundant, focus, calm, resilient.
Repeat these words and write them down somewhere you can see it a lot and when you see it, speak it out over yourself. Doing this sets your sail in the right direction.
Words change how we feel. If we have worry, confusion, doubt and overwhelm playing around in our mind, our outer world will reflect it.
3. The Law Of Cause And Effect
The Law of Cause and Effect states that any action causes a reaction. Whatever you put out, whether it be good or bad, you are going to get right back at you.
There are specific actions for being successful and for being unsuccessful. Most people think that life is just happening to them and they are just an effect of what’s happening.
They don’t realise that they have the choice to be the cause. When you’re a cause, you take full responsibility for your results.
It’s not always easy to admit this. It’s a bit of a wakeup call. When you realise that everything you have or don’t have, is because of you, it can be confronting.
A lot of people are looking externally at other people or things instead of being present to themselves and the opportunities that they can create.
We’re thinking thousands of thoughts every day. When we’re at the effect side of the equation, the thoughts are usually about what is happening TO us, not what we are creating.
When we live at cause, not effect, we realise that if we want to attract something into our business or into our life, WE have to take ownership. We need to realise I’M the cause of what’s happening.
If you want incredible clients, you need to be an incredible client. If you want incredible wealth, you need to invest time energy and money into your wealth.
When you realise that everything that is happening in your life is because of you, you start to become present to opportunities, clients and creativity.
A lot of people are deleting and rejecting opportunities constantly because they’re living in effect and not taking productive quality outputs that really matter. If you want to attract something into your business, you have to be it!
I want clients who don’t get stuck in hesitation, so I don’t allow myself to get stuck in hesitation. I want clients who are happy and committed, so I am happy and committed first. I want clients who give referrals, so I work at being a coach who is worthy of referrals.
Whatever you are reaping today is the result of what you sowed in the past. If you wish to reap a different result, you need to plant different seeds today.
Sometimes reaping the seed you’ve sown takes patience. If you have planted seeds in the ground, keep watering them with positive thoughts, positive words and actions. One day they are going to come up fast like bamboo. But it requires trust.
There’s sometimes a lag time between sowing and reaping. It’s almost like a test. Your life is not a sprint, it’s more like an ultra-long marathon.
This law shows you that we will be compensated for our work as long as we’re open to receiving in all the many ways that results can be delivered to us.

Here they are:
The first captivation weapon is compelling content.
To grow your business, you need to create consistent content that’s valuable and relevant to your ideal client.
It’s the type of content that your ideal client really wants.
Being consistent and constantly showing up and giving compelling content builds trust. People get to know you, like you and trust you.
We do business with people who we like, who we can trust, and who we feel gets us.
There are many people that have signed up with me as a client and said they just feel like I get them and speak their language.
There are a lot of people who watched my business over time before they decided to work with me and this built trust due to the consistency.
I never used to enjoy doing Facebook Lives. But I decided that I was going to do them consistently. There has to be a time where you get serious about your business and say, ‘I’m doing this and there is no ‘out.’ You have to decide to burn your bridges and go all-out in your business.
When I first committed to consistency, I assumed that consistency was going to pay off, but I had no proof. Now, I do!
The benefit of consistency is that you build trust with people who don’t know you. You’re not here today and gone tomorrow, you consistently show up because you want to help people.
When you’re consistently showing up with compelling content, you get to teach people what you do and you get to teach people new things. Through that, they will realise if they’re a match for you.
There’s a piece of research that was done recently where someone did a study that showed it takes seven hours of consuming content for people to make a significant buying decision.
So if you’re reposting other people’s quotes, you’re not really building that trust through your own consistent content.
You need to start increasing the time you are providing content. If you’re doing Facebook Lives, I encourage you to consider running a 60-minute Zoom event.
If you’re already doing 60 minute events, up it to 90-minutes then 2 hours, then commit to running a half-day then a full-day workshop.
Running online events and webinars with Zoom is one of the fastest ways to build up connections with people because when people book into an event, they’re more invested.
I recommend that you do both written and video content. If you’re better at one than the other, then just start with the type of content you are good at, and you will grow as a content creator the more you do it.
The more you put yourself out there doing videos, the less you will need notes, and the less nervous you will be.
Video is the way of the future. It’s also the way of NOW.
Putting out valuable video content builds your personal brand. You’ll get more people referring you as a go-to expert and you’ll be known as a reliable business owner.
One of my clients wanted to build her business, so we worked together. She was so committed to putting out regular content. She kept showing up and she now has over 40,000 followers on Facebook and she got them really quickly!
She was genuinely showing up and building her tribe and creating valuable, consistent content.
This is the first powerful captivation method
The second method is creating crafted online events.
Events are about organising your knowledge and having actionable steps for people to follow. It’s structured and organised.
You don’t have to be a great speaker. You don’t have to be an extrovert (I’m an introvert). You just have to have knowledge that can help people.
Repetition is the mother of increasing your skills and it’s the same with running online events. They are so powerful as you can reach more people at one time.
You can build rapport and connection with more people at one time by doing online events. It maximises and leverages your time.
Every hour that you spend with someone, you could spend that same hour helping 50, 100, or 500+ people via an event.
Doing online events allows you to educate people and inspire them. It can open so many new exciting doors of opportunity for you.
If you’re willing to run an event, people often start inviting you to speak in their groups and you become known as the go-to expert.
I suggested doing online events to one of my clients, Gaynor. She literally laughed, as she didn’t know how she could find the time, as she had her business and was also a busy mum.
I encouraged her to step out and when she did, her results were brilliant. Her first online event brought in $2,368. It was by no means perfect, but she still had people show up and get helped by it.
Since using that online strategy she’s gone on to make over $25,000 and now she has an online course. She used to run retreats in the UK and now she’s taken everything online. She never thought she could do it, but she did!
It takes work when you first start doing them and organising your knowledge, but the hard road gets easier and the easy road gets harder. Events are SO worth it!
The third marketing method to build more followers, engagement and trust is to have a client attraction funnel.
The thought of a client attraction funnel may freak you out, but they are actually simple once you know how to do it.
A funnel is basically an automated way to turn strangers into clients. They are where people can sign up to your services 24/7.
They may come across your post on a downloadable freebie that you created. They click to download the freebie and it takes them to a funnel landing page.
A landing page is a simple one-page website. The people opt-in, they put their name and email in your funnel and they get your freebie to download. In return, you get their details.
You capture people, get their information, and then you can continue to build a relationship with them. A lot of people get my emails and they don’t sign up straight away. But after nurturing them, they come to a point where they are ready to buy.
A funnel could also be a landing page that leads people to your event. A funnel could also be a landing page that’s a freebie that people download and they go into your email list and nurture sequence.
A nurture sequence is a series of emails that give more help and free gifts. Your ideal client will eventually work out if you are the right match to work with them.
Only 3% of people are ready to buy immediately when they come across you. Others need more time to build that rapport with you. A funnel is a way for you to consistently build relationship. You share and give value through your funnel system.
The right people will want to keep working with you. These are the people who see that you’ve sufficiently educated them and inspired them to actually take action.
These skills are all learnable and at some point, if you want to be a successful business owner, you do need to learn these skills.
Remember it’s all about just taking action, and it can be imperfect action.
It’s about making a decision and going for it.
