Coaching Corner: Be bold!!
By Marilou Butcher Roth, Master Coach
Today I am keeping things quite short and hopefully sweet! I was sharing a story with a class recently about being presented with an opportunity that quite frankly scared the %^&* out of me! This has happened to me several times in my life and each time I wanted to vehemently respond with a resounding NO. What kept that response inside was imagining how I would feel if I walked away, and each time I realized that I would not feel good about myself.
What opportunities are there for you? Do you have options in life that make you nervous? Just to be clear, these are good opportunities, and ones that scare you. You might be afraid of looking silly, or it may just be outside of your comfort zone. Tune into what is uncomfortable for you and imagine how you will feel if you say no, and also how you would feel if you complete the activity.
So, that’s basically it. Embrace what life brings to you ~ be bold!!
