"it’s all about daily actions you take, after all your beliefs become your thoughts"

Myself, Meghana Bhansali, am an architect by profession and had taken a sabbatical from work during my pregnancy…..15 years later I’m still on a sabbatical……..

My son was rejected by each and every daycare in our area. The reason being was he cried a lot!! He was just not willing to stay back without me. Finally, my husband and I had to take a tough call and I decided to be a homemaker. 
I always thought of myself as a career woman and in this new role, I felt lost. There were many things I wanted to do but felt overwhelmed. Sometimes felt like a drift wood lost in the ocean of life. There were times I went on a guilt trip, not being able to work, and I often found myself asking: Am I living the life that I truly want to live?
 I was happy cooking and taking care of my family but also felt something missing. As I was looking for something that could help me, show me a way forward, I came across this course on MindValley.

Lifebook helped me understand what I really want from life and where I should refocus my attention. Most importantly, I understood what areas I have neglected and how to improve them by being more conscious in all categories of life. 
Few chapters came easy but certainly started out as a struggle like financial, career… Lifebook helped me understand the areas I have neglected and how to work on them by being more conscious in all the other categories of life. 

For me, the financial and career area was always a challenge. I was pleasantly surprised to find that the impetus to work in this area came to me not by focusing directly on money or my career, but on my spiritual life, my vision to leave the world a better place than it already is.
Surely, I had to do some real hard work out there, some serious contemplation. I had to re-write certain chapters quite a few times and in some I have only a one premise and one vision, one purpose and one strategy……but at least I was aware of the area’s existence, its impact on the other areas….
I feel the best part of the programme was that they allow you to borrow from others, if their thoughts resonate with you. That made the process so much simpler as it became easier to pen down your thoughts. 

From there on, I have kept on adding content and certain areas like fitness, character, and social life have already started to look up.

Also I had a lot of baggage….I had met with a burns accident when I was 20 years old and sustained 30% burns to my right side. In spite of a loving and caring husband who didn’t mind the scars at all…I was ashamed of them. 

It was during the course of Life book that it dawned on me that what truly matters is what lies inside, and for this I shall be ever grateful to Jon and Missy for coming out and sharing Lifebook with us. It’s indeed very noble of you both.
Lifebook helped me to stop, re-evaluate and devise a plan to move forward. It made me take a look at the self-limiting beliefs that prevented me from making profound changes in my life.
The coaching calls were really helpful as they provided much needed support and guidance.
Also a big thanks to Alex…totally loved the 33% Social Life Rule.
And last but not the least, thanks to Vishen for bringing Jon and Missy to Mind Valley.

My biggest take away from the programme
Goals that don’t change your behaviour are completely useless…it’s all about daily actions you take, after all your beliefs become your thoughts.
