Don't make New Year's Resolutions
Whyever not? BECAUSE!
Because they don’t work. Because they’re just wishes, not based in any reality. They’re an empty hope, waiting for the Wish Fairy to wave her magic wand.
Not goin’ to happen!
You have to actually visualise what it is you want, and then become the person who fits that vision.
Then all the steps will fall into place and you’ll find yourself getting there!
The wrong way to do it
It’s so easy to think about things you’d like to do or achieve in your career or business, think about them for a moment, say, “That’s too hard,” and shelve them again.
I know! I’ve been there!
I’ve had great ideas that have come to me, which I KNOW will work well in my business and help the people I’m dedicated to working with.
And what do I do? I say, “That’s too hard,” and push them to the back of my mind.
If we don’t plan things … they’re unlikely to happen. You don’t want to get to the end of the year and realise you didn’t do any of the things you wanted to do!
NURSE that great idea of yours. Whether it’s to move house, start a new activity or career, or grow your business. Encourage your ideas, don’t dismiss them through fear!
(This is why it’s such fun being a Transition Coach - watching my clients blossom is wonderfully exciting!)
A new vision
Plan what you really want in your life. In detail. And don’t for one moment be practical! Put down what you want, regardless of cost or current possibility.
Then, keeping that image clear in the front of your mind, you can focus on that and it will guide your every step.
If you’ve got an idea lurking in your mind - whether for your life in general or for your business - GO FOR IT! Start investigating the possibilities!
The best things we do tend to be born out of struggle. It’s through working through that struggle that we solve problems, find answers, and create something meaningful!
As a Coach I hugely enjoy seeing my clients grow in confidence as they realise they CAN do what they want. Especially when everyone else told them they couldn’t!
Can you see how you may be holding yourself back from a true enjoyment of your life through habits that don’t serve you, and a natural fear to step out and do something new?
Staying in your comfort zone is unlikely to break new ground!
You begin to realise that staying the same is not going to work to get you where you want to be.
And when that fear of staying the same becomes STRONGER than the fear of taking action - that’s when we’re motoring!
That’s when you can really get to grips with designing your future - just as you want it.
