This week’s theme – What’s your vision?
What do you see on “the other side”. In last week’s podcast, I asked you to share what you saw when you got to Happy Land!! In the podcast, I suggested you draw a picture (nothing elaborate) or even write down what you want. What you SEE and how you would FEEL once you get to “Happy Land”.
So – what IS your vision and how the hell do you get there?
About 3 years ago, I had a woman come to me and say “I want to make better choices”. At first it was really all about physical health. The usual – lose weight. Well, I’m not a “health coach”, but I understood she needed help with the “how” and the accountability. I agreed to take her on as a private coaching client. As we would meet and talk thru what she wanted, it wasn’t well “you can’t eat this or that, you have to work out, or you won’t succeed”. It was conversations full of her why. Her VISION. What did she see in her HAPPY LAND?
Stop eating McDonalds every morning for breakfast and starting to walk at lunch is the obvious part. Her vision included financial, emotional AND physical health. WOW – that was a lot more than she mentioned, but that is what happens when you’re COACHING someone. You don’t just focus on the obvious…because usually that’s a result of something bigger – deeper.
WE HAD TO DETERMINE WHAT WAS CAUSING HER TO MAKE UNHEALTHY DECISIONS.
THINK ABOUT: What it is YOU want. AND what you need help with (this can be the hard part – so who can help you determine that?)
So this week – I want you to think about who it is that YOU want to become. What do you want your legacy to be? If you died tomorrow… what would you hope that people are saying? What do I want you to do? Write your TOMBSTONE MESSAGE! HAHA…YES, THAT’S WHAT I SAID!
Make sure you post your message in the comments section!
And, if you need help like this client did – with:
- creating your vision,
- determining the how, or
- keeping you focused and holding you accountable
