Stop Chasing What Isn't Meant For You and Start Attracting Opportunities

Here's the thing about constantly chasing after opportunities, people, or outcomes—it's exhausting, and most of the time, you're running after things that weren't meant for you in the first place.

I've seen it with my client’s time and again. They're hustling for clients who don't value them, pursuing business models that drain them, or forcing relationships that should have ended years ago. It's like patching a leaky sink that needs to be completely replaced—a temporary fix for a bigger problem.

The Shift That Changes Everything

"I don't chase, I attract. What belongs to me will simply find me." — Jamie Kern Lima

This isn't some fluffy, wishful thinking. This is about having enough confidence to stop forcing what clearly isn't working.

Let's get clear on what this means:

• Chasing means desperately pursuing opportunities that consistently reject you

• Attracting means creating so much value that the right opportunities can't ignore you

When you shift from chasing to trusting, you're not being passive—you're being strategic. You're focusing your energy on building something worth being found instead of exhausting yourself running after things that keep moving away from you.

Start Attracting Opportunities

My Own Leaky Sink Moment

When I finally stopped chasing what I was supposed to do with my life and walked away from the golden handcuffs of my government job, I was finally able to start living my dream—moving to rural Ontario and building a business on my own terms.

Was it scary? Of course.

Did I second-guess myself? More times than I'd like to admit.

But here's what happened: the moment I stopped chasing the security of that paycheck and started building something that truly aligned with my values, the right clients found me. Not because I got lucky, but because I finally had the clarity to be visible to the people who needed exactly what I offer.

Fix Your Foundation First

If you're constantly chasing, something in your business foundation needs repair.

Maybe you're:

• Undercharging, so you need more clients just to survive

• Unclear about who you actually serve, so you're chasing everyone

• Stuck in a business model that doesn't suit your strengths

• Too afraid to be visible, so opportunities don't know you exist

Before you can attract what's meant for you, you need to fix these leaky sinks. You don't need more motivation—you need more clarity.

Your Solution Finder Challenge

Think about something you've been chasing that consistently moves away from you. A type of client, a business model, a particular outcome.

Now, ask yourself:

1. What if this isn't meant for me?

2. What would happen if I stopped chasing it?

3. What could I build that would attract the right opportunities instead?

You are more capable than you think. Stop chasing what's draining you and start building something worth being found.

Let's fix this—together.
