What's the topic?

 

Perspectives - how many can you have on the topic you want to explore or do something about?

Choices - what are the options, which is the best one for you right now?

Planning - what's the plan?

Commitment - are you willing to commit to your goal, your plan?

Actions - clear, step by step actions

 

All so that your topic -  idea/dream/goal becomes a reality.....

 

Got a sheet of A4 and some colour pens ( yes permission to excite your brain!) - jot down some thoughts and have a look at them, what do they tell you ...... what's your next step?

A Change is as good as a rest?!

This time last week I was in beautiful Devon, a very lovely long weekend away.

When is the last time you had a change - a change of environment, a change of routine?

Shift happens, change takes place when we explore, try something new, take action.....

This coming week - what small step could you take to change your routine or go to a new place, meeting room, train station, coffee shop, place of interest, walk a different way?

Be in a "new place" physically and therefore perhaps metaphorically?

Change your routine, your journey to work, experiment a little......Are you looking for change? Change something - and see what happens? How did you feel? Has it started movement to get you to where you want to go? Has it opened your mind to new possibilities?

Enjoy change, feel refreshed ( change in organisations at the moment has bad press, restructuring, stress, unknowns, jobs disappearing) .......

What can you change in your environment or routine that will fulfill you and lead to greater things?

Job done!

Sometimes  - it's about pushing through, working hard, using your energy well ...... when one of my client's got one job offer recently on a Thursday and then another the following Monday - it was all worth it for them.

I was inspired as I watched them keep going, be courageous in the tough times, work hard, focus when so much was going on - job done - they did what they started out to do.

What do you want to say job done about?   Do get in touch to chat - and to explore more about how coaching could work for you. A coach walks alongside you, I can support you clarify and achieve....

Be at your best ...... make it happen!

 

I loved this,  that a client said to me the other week:

"The best thing I can be is me at my best"

 

 Many years ago a fabulous coach asked me:

"What are the conditions for success"?     

 

I can still remember the question and what we were discussing. So connecting these two thoughts together.

 

What are the conditions for success for you to be at your best?

Take just 2 moments now to answer that question for YOU....

 

Coaching is all about possibilities, opportunities, potential and making it happen - action by action, step by step.  Enjoying the experience along the way, insightfulness  - all moving you towards what you want - whether at work, leading your organisation/department/team, moving to the next phase in your career or business, regaining a balance in your life that you're happy with, improving relationships and situations that are wearing you down....or whatever?

Make reading this count for you!    Be at your best and what do you need to make it happen?  Take a step, just a small step towards it - doing it today is a choice that you have, choose YOU!

What lense are you looking through?

Are you focused, are you distracted?

Are you seeing black and white - is there colour around?

Are you looking at what you want to be looking at?

 

What do you see?  .................yes that's right, that's the only question right now 

What do you see?
