Coaching Corner: One more time!
By Marilou Butcher Roth, Master Coach
Each year, as we approach the end of December, I address how to align yourself with your upcoming desires for the new year. If, in fact, you stay current with my posts, you might recognize some of what follows. No worries! These are the types of concepts that bear repetition.
As you begin this process, give yourself some space. Create a supportive environment that is quiet and calm. So NOT in front of a TV screen!! Have paper and pen ready to go. Next step is to allow yourself the space of pure curiosity. What do I truly want for my upcoming year? As you begin to identify items, stop at each and ask yourself if this is a “should” (from yourself or someone else), or a want? If it is found to be one of your shoulds, please take it off of the list. This list is precious, covering only those items that you truly want to accomplish.
Now that you have this cleaner list, ask yourself why this item is important to you. How will your life be different? Who might it impact? Let yourself dive deeper into what is motivating each item. And, it helps when you are able to experience a sense of excitement! For me, this is necessary.
That’s it really, keep it simple -- clean and clear and you will find more of your desires making their way into reality!!
Enjoy!
