I’m tired of people telling me what to do!

There is an energy out in the world right now that is really pushing us to be our authentic selves. We really need to be true to US. Who WE ARE. What we want. We need to stop worrying about what other people might think or say or do.  We have been PROGRAMMED (mostly by the media).  They keep telling us what to do, or who we need to be to fit in.

Stop being so afraid to be yourself!  You are wonderful!  You need to let your OWN light shine, NOT someone else’s idea of what or who you should be.

People can Respond to us being us, or they can React to us being us, but either way, that is their ‘stuff’ not ours.

I want to share that I am going back to my maiden name for most aspects of my life.  If I call you now, you will see my maiden name on your call display.  If you join the Global Information Network as an Affiliate under me, you will see my maiden name.  My maiden name is Hadath.  Not quite as pleasing to some as Hawk, but Hawk became my surname in my early 20’s, I’m turning 47 this year and its time to change back!  (no reflection on my current relationship, his name is not Hadath or Hawk).

I am ME.  I am happy to be ME.  Proud to be ME.  I will take back my given name.  My website will stay the same because its been www.tamarahawk.com for almost 10 years and I will be easier to find that way.  But some other communications from me will say Hadath.

I had a “business professional” tell me that it would not be a good idea to do this, that it might confuse people or put them off.  I am going to do what I need to do and bet that you will be okay with it.  I will practice what I preach (and listen to the messages/nudging I get from the Universe), and I will be ME.

So far today I have “unsubscribed” to 4 email lists.  Yesterday I unsubscribed from two.  As they come in, I will unsubscribe from more.  Not that I have a lot more, but some.

There are quite a few that I will stay subscribed to, but I am tired of getting emails that tell me what I need to do to grow my business, or what I need to change about WHO I AM to be successful.  I will keep the ones that are encouraging me to be the best ME that I can be.

I already consider myself to be successful.  I have this picture on my wall that I bought about 5 years ago.  I look at it often, almost every day.

This is how I feel.  I feel successful.  I AM living my life in my own way.

I was talking to a coach the other day, not my regular mentor but a coach.  (I coach people, but I think its important for Coaches to have a coach too!).  Anyway, he says to me, “I think you will just have to get yourself a niche, and change your specialization and/or what you say you do”.

I was like “WHAT?!?”  Are you kidding me!  I am who I am, I do what I do.  I am all for adjusting, learning, changing and growing.  I have changed many things over the years.  One thing I will NOT change is who I AM or what I do.
