Even Coaches Have their moments!

As a Coach, I coach from a Holism approach. If one aspect of your life is not working, we will look at all the other aspects within the Whole Circle :

For example: Self, are you taking care & nurturing yourself? Your physical, mental & social well being? Your Finances is the integrity in? Paying your bills on time? Managing them accordingly if it's not possible at the moment? What of your home life? Is there harmony within the Family/ Social aspects of life? Your career ? Is it where you want it to be? Social/ Community? Spiritual? Mental/Intellectual?

Coaching allows you to create a balance in your life around this Holistic approach to living. When the scales get tipped, we revisit each aspect.

I myself , for those who have been following me , found myself struggling with my own well being yesterday. I committed to 10,ooo steps / day & I hit 18098 steps by the end of the day. Created success around that game. However, the game of journaling has been a struggle. I've been resisting with the excuse of no time. When I looked honestly at who I was being...I found myself not wanting to fess up that I had 5 chips with lunch yesterday. I spent a good portion of the day beating myself up! Ugh! Wasn't worth it. Bottom line was I enjoyed those 5 chips & wished it could've been the bag! When I turned the conversation around, I looked at my success for NOT having eaten the whole bag, I was able to move on , look at my time management skills & set aside a time each day to successfully complete my journaling for the day... whether I like to or not! I got to be my commitment!

What I learned for myself was exercising control with my food intake! Just like financial savings! They all align!

What I wanted to eat, I ate without remorse or regret after turning the mind thought around. I also spend without regret.. . asking is this a want or need? I now have the luxury of saving . Whether it be food stores of savings for another 5 chips or money. Finding it easier & easier to be more optimistic about life when I look from a Holistic approach to living now.

We become successful in every aspect of life not by chance or luck but rather by CHOICE!

Choice to be willing to want to for yourself & others. You deserve it!

What are you choosing to take on today?

Your comments & thoughts are always welcome!

Thank you for following the Journey!

Who is Human after all?

Who is Human after all? I am! I committed to taking 10,000 steps each day & increasing my exercise , decreasing my waistline by the New Year! I've been playing with it & having fun with myself. Taking my own coaching advise , by giving up the significance & playing with my commitments!

Yesterday was a challenge to get the extra steps in as I was busying myself with a recent move & going thru the toils of putting my home & life back in order.... Got up , walked the dog, maybe if I walked the dog again... I'd have a "happy dog", hummm..... than the phone ran, than, than.. than... I got my mind off it... watched & wrote down everything that crossed my lips... than went to a friends house & there were cookies on the counter. Me the cookie Monster extraordinar! There, staring me in the face... I hadn't hesitated for one iota of a moment...I took the cookie in hand as if I was the boss ( and of course I am..) put it to my lips took the smallest taste , than put it down. I was satisfied! I own the Power over cookies, food... I made a commitment & my integrity means more to me ! It was such a rush to get that power! Who knows..

When I got home , I revisited the back of my bottom drawer & looked at that beaded, exotic bikini hiding there for too long & created the possibility of revisiting that baby once more!! Besides it's too cool to have it hidden in the back of a dark dreary draw..... So, who is human after all? I am and so are YOU!!

How many times have we allowed ourselves to get distracted, have conversations of unworthiness??? Not deserving.. being in the moment ( oh, just this once ) ?? Would love to hear your comments.

Feeling stuck. Feel free to contact me for a consult.

As always, Namaste & thank you for the follow!
