20,000 people around me in the Delta Center, Salt Lake City. On the screen a film was playing about doTERRA’s project in Kenya. And then it happened: goosebumps all over my body. The 20,000 people disappeared. It was as if that film was playing for me alone. And I knew: I’m going there.
Didn’t hope, didn’t wish. I knew it.
With every cell in my body I felt myself already standing there. Among the elephants and lions. On the fields of tea tree plants. Laughing with the farmers. Helping at the school doTERRA had set up there.
A year later I stood there. Exactly as I’d felt it. As a Blue Diamond leader, with my own team, making impact in a way I’d only dared to dream of. The chance it would really happen was small. But doubt? I had none. Because that’s how it works for me: when you feel the outcome so clearly and so deeply, you start acting on it too, every single day, until reality begins to fall into line with you.
Welcome to your turning point
That dot in GOOD. isn’t just a piece of punctuation. It’s THE moment. The zero point where everything changes. Where you stop hoping your life gets better and DECIDE that it happens now.
Dr Joe Dispenza calls it “becoming the personality of your future”. Bob Proctor spoke about paradigm shifts. I call it: f*ck the past, I’m dating my future now.
Knowing instead of hoping: what happens in your brain
For me there’s real power here, and there’s ordinary neuroscience underneath it too. Your brain partly doesn’t make a sharp distinction between a vividly visualised experience and a real one: with intense visualisation, partly the same brain areas become active as when you actually live it. Top athletes have used this for decades (mental rehearsal). And by repeatedly directing your attention and emotion at something, you gradually shape your neural pathways, that’s called neuroplasticity. Your brain literally starts to filter the world differently: you suddenly see the opportunities that fit where you want to go.
That’s how I felt Kenya in every cell. My attention, my choices and my behaviour were already tuned to that future, and the rest followed. Call it manifestation, call it reprogramming your brain, for me it comes down to the same thing: you become the person who belongs with your goal, and act from there.
But take note: visualising without action is like a car without petrol. Pretty to look at, but you get nowhere.
From dreaming to doing
When I started with doTERRA, I was a mother with two small children. Time? What’s that. Money? Even less. But I had a burning desire: to be healthy, to care for my family, and to help others experience the same.
I started small. Shared what worked for me. Lavender for my skin. Enzymes because I don’t do so well on bread and milk. Probiotics for my microbiome. Glucose-conscious living, optimal movement, the right supplements, emotional balance. People saw my change and wanted the same.
What began as “let me just share this oil that helps me” grew into a movement, from the Netherlands to Germany to international. A business that gave me not only financial room, but also time: I set my own working hours, I choose who I work with, and I can be there for my children. To go to Kenya. To live from abundance instead of scarcity.
Your springboard to more freedom
doTERRA has renewed its compensation plan, which has made it more accessible to build something alongside your work. Even if you’re “not a salesperson”. Even if you think network marketing isn’t for you.
Because here’s what I’ve learned: when you help others feel healthier and happier, physically, mentally and emotionally, a lot comes back. You grow, they grow, and the world becomes a little more beautiful.
This isn’t “get rich quick”, and it isn’t a promise. This is building something that fits who you are. To be honest: results vary greatly from person to person and depend on your effort, your time and your network. Most people build this up calmly, alongside their lives. What you win along the way regardless:
- Your own health changes
- You inspire others by your example
- You learn skills you take everywhere
- You make an impact that reaches further than your immediate surroundings
Shaping your new self
Bob Proctor said: “Your income can only grow to the level that you grow.” That’s why every change, whether it’s health, relationships or work, begins with becoming a new version of yourself.
Who are you when you’re healthy? How do you walk, how do you talk, what do you eat? Who are you when you feel freer? How do you think, what choices do you make? Start living there now. Not only when you’ve reached your goal. Now.
Write it, feel it, anchor it
Grab pen and paper. Write who you are exactly one year from now. Not what you have, but who you ARE. Begin every sentence with “I am…” and write in the present tense. Let your hand move without thinking.
Then make your own GOOD. blend to anchor this vision.
Roll-on recipe (10 ml):
- 20 drops Frankincense, for focus and a sense of connection
- 16 drops Wild Orange, for an upbeat, creative feeling
- 12 drops Ylang Ylang, to open your heart
- 8 drops Cedarwood, for a sense of grounding
- Top up with fractionated coconut oil
Scents have a direct line to your limbic system, the part of your brain where emotion and memory come together. By linking this blend to your visualisation, the scent becomes your anchor: every time you smell it, you call up the same emotional state. Use it as a perfume.
The daily practice
Every morning, after my VMG+ green smoothie, I do my visualisation. I use my GOOD. roll-on on my wrist, my heart area and in my palm, rub my hands, cup them under my nose and breathe in deeply.
That scent helps me switch to calm and focus, and sets the tone for my day. I close my eyes and feel. Not think, feel. What it’s like to be that person. That leader making impact. That mother who can be present. That woman who lives and gives from abundance. Then I open my eyes and act from that energy. Every choice, every conversation, every action comes from that future version of myself.
The moment is NOW
You stand at a turning point. You can carry on as you are, hope it gets better, wait for the perfect moment. Or you can decide. Now. Here. This moment.
Decide that your health becomes a priority. That you create more room and freedom. That you’re going to make impact. That you play the lead in your own life.
This isn’t “fake it till you make it”. Call it “become it till you see it”: you first become, on the inside, the person who fits your goal, and act from there, day after day, until it becomes visible.
From surviving to abundance, the choice is yours
I know where you are, because I was there too. That feeling that there must be more. That urge to grow. That voice saying “you were made for more than this”. Listen to that voice.
Whether you choose optimal health, emotional balance, more freedom, or all three: it starts with one decision. This is your dot. Your turning point. The question isn’t WHETHER you can. The question is: do you dare?
Because if a mother of small children with zero time and even less money can do it, if I can go from surviving to doTERRA Blue Diamond, if I can stand in Kenya exactly as I felt it, then so can you.
Let’s f*cking go! 🎯 Love, Tanja
