Razor Sharp Focus

You cannot depend on your eyes when your imagination is out of focus. Mark Twain.

Everything else are just details.

Yes You Are

Life is not easy for any of us. But what of that? We must have perseverance and above all confidence in ourselves. We must believe we are gifted for something and that thing must be attained. Marie Curie.

In my life coaching practice, the thing that I have repeatedly come to see over the years is that, more often than not,  people know what they want. It’s just that they don’t do it.

Why? Because they can’t get past their self-limiting beliefs. They come in a variety of disguises, all starting with ‘I’. There are as many of them as there are people. Here are just a few of the most common ones:

  • I’m not smart enough.
  • I’m over qualified.
  • I’m under qualified.
  • I don’t have enough money.
  • I don’t have enough time.
  • I have too many other responsibilities.
  • I am not quite ready.

You are not alone. We are all afflicted with them from time to time. After all, we’re only human. But it is important to remember there is always another way of looking at challenges. The trick is to creatively find a way around them.

As I am fond of saying, attitude is everything. Your present circumstances might not be be ideal but it is not your circumstances that determine how far you can go. What ultimately determines your breaking through is how well you respond to the road blocks standing in your path.

We are all responsible for how we respond to life. The question is, if you are running into a self-limiting wall, how are you responding? Are you responding in a negative, self-defeating manner or seeing it as an opportunity for a bigger, more creative response than you thought you had?

It takes courage. Everything in life does. It isn’t a matter of wishfully thinking, ‘yes I can,’ but rather reminding yourself that you are bigger than you see yourself and already are what you wanted to be. Pat yourself on the back.

This isn’t psycho babble. You only get one life. If this is resonating and you are consciously considering making some changes in your life, you won’t want to miss the latest session of my new 3rdAGE Workshop. All the information is in the box below. See you on Oct. 26th.

Keep On Going

Opportunities to find deeper powers within ourselves come when life seems most challenging. Joseph Campbell.

The road of the warrior is long and arduous. It is never over, until it’s over.

We are shaped by our thoughts; we become what we think. When the mind is pure, joy follows like a shadow.

There are only two mistakes one can make along the way; not going all the way and not starting.

Hmmm…
