How Does the Law of Rhythm Affect Your Business?

The universal law of rhythm states that the energy in the universe is like a pendulum. A pendulum will swing to the right and then to the left. There's a rhythm. There's a pattern. Just like the sun rises and then the sun sets. The stock market goes up and then it goes down. Real Estate prices rise and then  they fall. The seasons come and the seasons go.

Everything has cycles.

As a solopreneur, I'm sure you have ups and downs in your business. When the pendulum is down, what are you focusing on? Is it your lack of clients, your poor health, your children arguing, or  is it that you have a home to live in, you have food to eat, and you can see and hear?

I'm asking you these questions because what you focus on you bring about. If you focused on the fact that the pendulum is about to come back up rather than focusing on the negative, can you see how much better you would feel? No one feels good all of the time. It's just not possible. We need the low feelings in order to appreciate the high feelings.

When you're in the ocean and the waves are very rough, you need to swim through them, not against them, right? It's the same with life. When you swim through the current of life great things will be waiting for you on the other side.

Remember, we all have our storms. “Serenity is peace within the storm, not freedom from the storm.” The most important thing is how we deal with them. Be aware of this law of rhythm. It's happening all the time. If you don't like what's happening, just know that you'll flow through it.

So when the pendulum is down, you can feel the feelings of sadness, frustration, fear or anger. You can acknowledge these feelings that come up for you and then move on. Remember the times when things were flowing. When you felt abundant and joyful. And focus on those feelings.

It's not always easy to go through those rough times alone. We all need support. We need the support of friends. We need the support of business associates. And, most importantly, we need the support of a mentor. Mentors know where you need to go. They know what you need to do. They teach you how to get out of your own way. You can do it alone but it will take you twice or three times the amount of time and the effort. Having a mentor will  increase both the level and the speed of your success.
