“Life is what happens to you while you are making other plans.”
-John Lennon
Often life has a way of taking us on a path that we hadn’t intended. Sometimes the path is full of rough waves. Sometimes we find ourselves in depths of despair, disappointment, uncertainty and anxiety when we thought we were on the way to a mountain top.
If you are feeling like you are standing in the “promise of spring”, ready to birth a new idea but feel stuck, overwhelmed or that you are in the passenger seat, rather than the driver’s seat, read on.
“Sometimes I can’t control what happens in my life…
But I have learned I have a choice as to how I respond.”
-Barbara Eisele
We can powerfully create the direction and experience of our life. However, as Albert Einstein said, “we cannot solve our problems with the same thinking we used when we created them”. Unexpected circumstances that throw us a curve often require a new perspective to navigate. In other words, our current thinking could be insufficient for creating new possibilities in our life.
“Good News. You don’t have to change everything for everything to change.”
-Carol Courcy
How do you know what thinking could be limiting you?
This is where a coach comes in. As your partner, a coach helps you identify the inner dialogue you are unaware of or the “stories” you live in that are creating a reality that you believe is real and can’t be changed. It’s probably not as much the circumstances of life that are causing you frustration and stealing your creativity and energy as it is your inner dialogue, your story about you and what’s possible for your life.
“Your life and what you are meant to do and contribute – is special and does matter.”
-Oprah Winfrey
