Relationships - Life Success Coach

 A true relationship is one with yourself. We are constantly searching for happiness externally,but give little thought about our internal happiness. If you cant commit to looking after yourself and being honest to youself, then you will attract those people in you life, who arent honest and are not comitted to you.

Your outside world is a reflection of your inner mind.

Whatever is going on in the outside world of you, it is refecting what is going on for you in your own life. If life is chaos, and people are letting you down, or not treating you well, you need to look inside and see how you are letting yourself down and in which ways you arent treating yourself well. The people we attract into our lives are mirrors of ourselves. The people who we love to have in our lives, will have similair qualities to us.

Your outside world is a reflection of your inner mind, that includes the relationships you have as well. External relationships are reflections of your relationship you have with yourself.

Create a Dream Board of all your goals and dreams - Life Success Coach

 Well, we are moving through the year already. We have had some super weather. We have had some many opportunities to get out and enjoy some sunshine. Hopefully you have managed to have some holidays along the way. How is the year going for you?

A few years ago, I held a dream board workshop. Dream boards are a great way for putting your ideas on paper. Whatever it is you want to achieve, you can put on a poster. Cut out pictures or words that have meaning to you. Get yourself a big piece of cardboard and glue them on, you can even draw and write sayings that are important to you. You don't need to know how you are going to achieve your goal or dream. You just need to have a strong desire to achieve it. When you complete your dream board, it becomes a visual reminder, and if you have it up on the wall, you are constantly being reminded of what it is you want to achieve. As well as your conscious mind achieving it, your unconscious mind will be noticing as well.

We all know how effective most TV advertising is. This is sort of advertising is done at a subliminal level. That is, it is directed to your unconscious mind, by using key words and phrases that you might like to hear. Your conscious mind filters some of the incoming messages, but if you are in automatic pilot, it side steps the conscious mind and goes to the unconscious mind.

This is the same way that Dream Boards work. You might have some amazing pictures and ideas on your dream board and when your conscious mind sees it, it might say, "Yeah Right, that is never going to happen", but when you go about your daily routine and your conscious mind is busy, then those gorgeous pictures, photos, words and phrases are seen by the unconscious.

So, the same way that advertising works to trick your mind, you can trick your mind into believing that you deserve all of the things on your Dream Board. Your conscious mind can sabotage your thoughts and lead you to believe that you do not deserve or are not capable of getting your dreams and goals. 

However, Dream Boards can change those self-limiting belief's around, and help reinforce to your conscious and unconscious mind that you can achieve whatever it is you desire.

Stress Managment - Life Success Coach Online business

 A lecturer, when explaining stress management to an audience, raised a glass of water and asked, "how heavy is this glass of water?"

Answers called out ranged from 20g to 500g.The lecturer replied, "The absolute weight doesn't matter. It depends on how long you try to hold it."

If I hold it for a minute, that's not a problem. If I hold it for an hour, I'll have an ache in my right arm. If I hold it for a day, you'll have to call an ambulance.

In each case, it's the same weight, but the longer I hold it, the heavier it becomes.

He continued, "And that's the way it is with stress management. If we carry our burdens all the time, sooner or later, as the burden becomes increasingly heavy, we won't be able to carry on. As with the glass of water, you have to put it down for a while and rest before holding it again.

When we are refreshed, we can carry on with the burden.

So, before you return home tonight, put the burden of work down. Don't carry it home. You can pick it up tomorrow. Whatever burdens you are carrying now, let them down for a moment if you can. 

Relax, pick them up later after you have rested. Life is short. Enjoy!!

What does success look like to you? Life Success Coach

 hen we talk about success each one of us has our own ideas that come to mind. In my workshops over the years, I have done many brainstorms with people and results have always varied. Here are some ideas of other people's meanings of success. Money, nice house, nice car, Bach, nice thing, health, happiness and contentment. Sometimes we can try and reach for what we believe success to be and when we get there, there is a feeling of emptiness.

 We are conditioned all of life with messages about what success is. You just need to look at TV advertising and magazines advertising, you will soon see how bombarded with messages directly and subliminally. Direct messages are the ones that get you right away. The subliminal messages are those directed straight to your unconscious mind, that is the advertising that is getting planted into your mind. Advertising companies are clever enough to know how to get you at every single level so they can sell their product.

As with everything in life, you need to live by your values. Values are what you believe to be true about life, they are the rules you live by, and you will defend your values to the bitter end. So therefore, it makes sense to make your meaning of success tie in with your values. If you are striving towards being successful financially and you are not seeing your family as much while you are doing that, it is self-defeating. The guilt of not seeing your family and working many hours under the disguise that it is good for the family can only be counterproductive and cause problems. 

We all need money to live on and life is pretty awful if there isn't enough money, but it does all come down to balance. People often take good health, family and friends for granted. When you start adding up your success in life, look outside the square, and move away from the thought of financial success. Those who take their health for granted soon figure out it was a mistake when their health packs up, and that money can't buy it back.

Look at your life and think of all the things to be grateful for, you can even keep a gratitude book. I am sure many things you come up with will not be about money. It is good to have goals, and always be looking for how you can move yourself forward. Have value goals, that is, things you are aiming for that are in tune with what you value in life. Don't worry about what the Jones's are doing, it is really irrelevant to your life. Often people think money is the answer to everything. If i had money I could...... and the list could go on forever. It is what you think that money will buy you that is more important. It might be a holiday, and that might turn into going away with people you care about. It could be a nice house and come down to being about providing a nice place for your family. 

Make sure you understand what your goals are and why they are important to you. And if you don't have any goals in mind, think of something you could aim towards, tomorrow is always a new day, and out mental health needs to be moving towards something positive.

The power of positive people - Life Success Coach Online business

I hope that you have had a good week, I am sure you have. Let's talk about the power of positive people.

Being a 'Success Coach", I am often asked about success, and what I consider the keys of success to be. One of the main ones I would say, would be, surround yourself with likeminded, positive people. 

As we begin our day, we have so much energy that needs to last us the whole day. Have you ever had one of those experiences, when you chat to someone, and it's all doom and gloom, and prior to the conversation you felt positive, and as the conversation with the person unfolds, you tend to feel rather deflated as you talk to them? Also, because it is natural response to want to be in rapport with people, we tend to talk about things they want to talk about, and before we know it, we have fallen into some negative talk ourselves ad a very negative conversation.

Start to become aware of the people you mix with, the ones that drag you down, and start to limit your time with them. If you have a great idea and you want to share it with someone, tell a positive person, who will be supportive. Sometimes though, negative people, do have a good purpose, and that is, if you are flushing out a new idea, they will be happy to point out the negatives for you. This can be great feedback, as sometimes they might point out something you haven't thought of, that maybe you should have thought of. 

Apart from that, I don't see too many other uses for negativity. Surround yourself with likeminded people, become aware of how you speak to others, and how you speak about yourself to others, become aware of the people around you, if you have lots of negative people around, ask yourself "why are you letting them into your life"? If you have lots of positive people, well done, as they will keep your energy levels up when your energy is flagging, and likewise, you will keep their energy levels up when they are flagging.

And sometimes life deals us things that aren't that great, but look for the positive, the evets of life are dealt out to us, sometimes beyond our control, however we can control our reaction to those events.

Perception is key - Life Success Coach

Life can be a bit of a roller coaster at times, and learning to take the good with the bad can be quite a skill. Some people can take knock after knock and still come up smiling, while others take every knock really hard.  A good thing to look at is our perspective of life. If we perceive life to be hard and a struggle, if often can be. There are many people out there who struggle all the time but will readily have a smile on their face and offer a helping hand even though they are struggling.

Perception is key. How do you perceive life? If we believe that we are hard done by, then every event that comes along will play to that perception. If we believe that life is good, then often it will seem much better. We often hear people talking about the power of positive thinking, but does it really work? Things will happen in life to all of us, good and bad. It is how we handle these situations that matters. If we get into the mindset of "here we go again", then you have already framed up tin your head, that it's another problem to put onto the mountain of problems you already have. If you can hold a belief that you can manage anything coming along, then you will feel much better. 

The reality is life deals blows to all of us. If we have unresolved things going on, and if they are taking up you head space, it's a really good idea to try and sort something out so you have peace of mind. Otherwise, any other issues incoming will mount on top. It's like not doing the washing, day after day, you pile clothes up to be washed, if you don't start sorting the washing out, you will end up with no clothes to wear. Same thing, if you don't sort through issues bothering you, then issues will mount up on top of you until you feel you have no resources to cope. 

A great idea is to sit down and list the things that are bothering you, and take action, what do you need to do to resolve these things? Sometimes we can't resolve things, so learning acceptance is another great skill. If something is bothering you and someone else around you have been through similar, ask them for some tips on getting over the issue. There are many resources in the community that would help you out too. Reading self-help books is a great idea, as just one of the suggestions in the book might resonate with you, you might learn something else. 

Years ago, I was a volunteer at Wilson Home for Crippled Children. I was a teenager myself at the time. My friend who I visited for years became il quickly and then died, then a week later, his roommate died and then a couple of weeks later their other friend died. These kids taught me to not take life too seriously. These kids could laugh and make light of the world even though they were living on borrowed time and in wheelchairs. My perception of life changed all those years ago, and I have never forgotten that experience. Sometimes we get caught up in the little stuff and we allow it to fill our heads and it can leave us feeling negative.

To have gratitude for all you have now, and an acceptance of those things you simply cannot change, can go a long way to dropping stress levels.

Your intuition is always right - Life Success Coach

Some people say to me that they were quite intuitive, but they have lost it, or the other extreme that they don't have an intuitive bone in their body.

We are all intuitive, we all have those feelings that lead us to do, or not do things, sometimes we are aware of our actions and sometimes we are not. Life is so busy and sometimes we forget to listen to that voice in our head that might be telling us something useful. It might even be a feeling that you get about something or someone. For our intuition to work well, we need to quite our minds. We are so busy running from one thing to the next that a lot of us don't take time to be by ourselves, or if we do we fill our time up with more things to do. Intuitive thoughts and feelings are always present, it just depends how busy you are and if you are listening to your intuition at work.

You might be around someone and have a good feeling about them or the opposite, a bad feeling about them. It might be that you are going to do something, or going out somewhere and your gut feeling is telling you not to go or that you must go. Intuition is always around you; it gets lost in us being too logical about things. You might get a feeling to do something, but because it is not logical or something that you would normally do, you would dismiss it. As you begin to work with your intuition and see results that the thoughts you have are true and helpful, you will learn to trust your intuition and stop and even check in with yourself before doing things. 

Learning to trust your intuition is a helpful life skill. Going along with a gut feeling can save problems later. As your trust in your gut feeling gets stronger, so will your self-esteem. If you truly believe what you are doing is right, then you will have the self-esteem to act on your intuition regardless of what others think.

 Decision making can be a big issue for some people. Some will make wrong decision after wrong decision and sometimes that can lead to not making any decisions, because if you don't decide then you can't be responsible for the outcome if its not right. When we make decisions, we can check in with our body, about what feels right. If you are about to make a decision and you have butterflies in your stomach, a dry mouth, or a racing heart, you might be going down the wrong track. As simple as that sounds, we can be that busy in life that we don't feel those sensations. If you make a decision based on your intuition you will find you won't have any negative physical reactions, instead the decision will sit well with you, and you will feel content.
