Coaching Corner: Start small!

Coaching Corner: Start small!

Jan 6, 2017

By "Coach" Marilou Butcher Roth

Earlier this week I was making what felt like my 100th trip to the grocery store, when I spotted some beautiful cahalilys. These particular flowers have centers of creamy yellow, edged with a deep purple -- gorgeous! I promptly added these beauties to my cart and gleefully brought them home. Currently they are on my dining room table which I view constantly throughout the day. Each time I see them, I smile! I know its just a small thing but it truly brings me joy!

What have you done lately that brought you pure joy? The new year often brings different tasks with it, sometimes creating more time spent working than normal. Can you step back from your “busyness” to find those treasured moments that bring a smile to your face?

This week, put your attention on seeking out experiences and items that generate delight for you. Don't go global on this, start small! And, as always, have fun with this!
