I have kind of become obsessed with something I just learned. I have shared it on
YouTube, on my
FB page, with friends, and in multiple comments in various places. It has been this weird key for me that I wouldn't have expected, so I am sharing wherever I can, including here.
You know how so many different personality profiling things put you into groups of four? I recently did one I hadn't done before. For the most part, it was similar information but there were some differences. It was more about how they are in business and more importantly what their key motivator is.
There is one group that Merilyn calls the
VisionMaker. They are the people that set goals and visions and that's enough to motivate them. They have the drive to go after what they want.
In consideration of homes, I don't know if they would even come to a blog like mine. They would set a goal, create a vision of what they want their home to look like and go after it. I guess if they were wounded and needed help remembering who they are, they could end up here.
I'm guessing in terms of manifesting, they would take to vision boards and other forms of vision creation like a fish to water. There are so many manifesting tools that are designed to help one create a vision. If you were motivated by vision, then it makes sense that once you knew what you wanted your life to be, you'd go after it. These would also be the people that emphasize inspired action. They may or may not even think of it as manifesting.
The next group is the
PassionMaker. They are the people that get really excited about what they are doing and that excitement is enough to keep them going. That passion is what motivates them.
In homes, they very easily could end up here. Easily distracted and not wanting to do things if they aren't fun or they haven't found a passion for keeping their homes in good order. Yeah, I could totally see that they would be drawn to another way to approach the house, always seeking a passion for it. They may not know that's what they are seeking. If they can find their passion, their home would get and stay in order.
In manifesting, it makes sense that they would love experiential manifesting techniques. The ones where you bring in as many senses while they create. Anything and everything to get them excited about what they want to manifest. These would be the people that do amazing at manifesting when they tune into how their dreams make them feel. If they can stir up the passion, then they will go for their manifesting dreams. I can think of a number of manifesting teachers that use this style and they are doing amazing things in their lives.
The next group is called the
HeartMaker. They are motivated by meaning and purpose. If they can find a meaning in what they are doing, they'll keep going.
Many of these types are naturally organized, often OCD in their perfectionism. They wouldn't usually be drawn to my work because of the organizing ideas I may or may not present. They would be drawn to the meaning I could help them find, or tips for helping them find or unlock their purpose. For a long time, I thought this was the way to be, always seeking meaning and purpose for life. Looking back, I know I wasn't motivated by it, I was just doing what I thought was the way to success.
In manifesting, they are people that need to really get their why behind their manifesting. It's not enough for them to get a dream. It's not enough for them to get excited. They are the ones that have to see a greater purpose in their manifesting.
Before I tell you about the fourth type, let me say that there is nothing wrong with any of the four types. All types of people need to get a vision, find some passion, and create meaning. We all need
all four motivators in our lives. The difference is, a VisionMaker with passion and no vision won't get far. A PassionMaker can have meaning and vision but without that passion, they'll be easily distracted.
I have stopped before mentioning the fourth type because I wanted to talk a bit about how almost all, if not all of the manifesting tools I have ever learned and all of the organizing and decluttering information seems to approach the situation from one of these three ways. I have rarely heard of the fourth being mentioned. Maybe a little in homes, but I seriously can't think of one manifesting tool that really addresses or asks questions that would help the fourth motivation type. I know because this is my type.
I am a
PeaceMaker. I'm motivated by peace and ease. I want things to be as easy as possible. I also am always trying to find ways to have peace. Sometimes parenting is really hard because I have 6 kids and they are not all motivated by this peace thing, in fact, I'm not sure any of them are.
A PeaceMaker could definitely end up on a blog like this. Sure they'll want their home clean but they may not realize what they really want is the peace and ease that comes with a clean and organized home. They'll be interested in the home healing because of the peaceful energy that it could bring to the home. They'll hope that having a clean home would help their families to be more peaceful. They might think, “If we have less stuff, the kids will get along better.”
In manifesting, well I'm experimenting with that one. I know that when I asked myself a powerful question it changed my life. “How can I bring more peace to the world?” For the first time in my life, I was motivated to really, and I mean really, get clear about my message. I was motivated to act on the information I was learning and not stay in that procrastination phase of research. The idea that something I say or do could bring peace to someone's life and/or create ease for them is so powerful. So far, every time I have asked myself the question, even writing about it here, I get tears in my eyes. It makes my soul so happy. The results have been this constant little voice in my head, what can we do next to create peace? Is there a video to make? A blog to write? A FB post? What can we do to spread peace? The sessions I was putting off got done really fast because I might, just might be able to give my clients a little peace.
I'm thinking if that question was able to get me to a place where I was moving forward in a new way in my business, what could it do for manifesting in general? What if I asked questions that got me to see the ease and peace that would come from my manifesting? When I asked myself about my book, the thought came, “Well, I would definitely have more peace without that book nagging me.” After that, I actually started working on my book, something I've been saying I would do for a long time. If I could add an element of ease, I'm sure I would finish writing.
I am experimenting with questions designed to get me in touch with peace and ease. I am experimenting in how I can bring peace into my pocketbook. How I can have peace in my relationships. Not just desiring it, I've always desired it, but now actively asking specifically about ease and peace, knowing that's what motivates me.
Did you know that I have a mantra that always seems to center me with myself? I have had it for a while and now it's kind of ironic.
I am the empress of peace, daughter of deity, heir to the throne of the most high.
Enough about me, what about you? Did you see a possible motivation for you? Maybe you can see some of your loved ones might have a different motivation than you. If you want to really learn more about the four types, you can go to
