Spring Cleaning With Life Coaching

Spring is the time of year when we clean out the cobwebs in our homes, yards, boats, cottages and garages. In spring time, we get rid of the muck that we collected over the winter months and we embark on renovation projects and clean our closets. Isn’t also a great time to clean our minds and examine our lives? There is an enormous sense of satisfaction and joy that comes from doing these upgrades and renovations. The same thing happens when we clean up our minds by working with a coach.

We tend to see things differently and we gain new perspectives and view our surroundings differently. I too just had some renovations done at my office and I feel very much as I did when I first had the space designed. With this new renovation, I feel energized, refreshed and ready to take on some complex and challenging projects. This is very much the same way I feel when I work with my Coach.

Coaching is Refreshing

Coaching is a process that is refreshing, renewing and that allows one to see the world in a new and different way. It’s a process that helps to clear the mind and cause one to ask questions that change old limiting thoughts and beliefs, by replacing them with new energized thoughts that are more relevant to our future growth and success. After a great coaching session, one feels energized, has clarity in thinking and new perspectives to take on new decisive actions towards their goals. My clients often comment that they feel this way after a great coaching session.

Spring Clean Your Life

It is probably easier to determine if your home needs a good spring cleaning than it is to determine if your life could use a spring tune up. I’ve provided the following questions to help you decide if you could use coaching. Please answer yes or no to each of these questions:

1. Do you have difficulties concentrating and are easily distracted?
   
2. Do you feel unmotivated and unchallenged?
   
3. Do you feel incomplete and unclear about what you should do next?
   
4. Are you feeling uncertain, upset and confused about a decision you need to make?
   
5. Is your daily to-do list getting longer with no end in sight?
   
6. Do you need clarity and focus to reach a goal?
   
7. Do you feel stuck, mucky and blocked?
   
8. Do you need to set a specific goal but can’t seem to get going?
   
9. Are you managing the stress in your life well?
   
10. Do you feel that you are using your time as efficiently as possible?
    
11. Is there a task that you are putting off doing?
    
12. Are you in a negative conflict relationship at home or at work?
    

If you answer yes to any of the above questions then you will find a Certified Coach very helpful in your quest to move forward. Coaching
will put you in a better frame of mind for which to enjoy a beautiful summer, fall and winter. Remember, working with a Coach is an investment that keeps on giving you returns for a long time to come. More about Life Coaching…

Alignment for Success

 

Welcome to a Journey with Joyce

Interpersonal Wellness Tip – Alignment

Alignment

Are you finding that parts of your life are not aligned as you become more successful? Is it harder to keep things in focus and to balance?

Alignment is a core element of a successful and well life. Alignment of your core values with your life principles will boost your self-confidence and help you build a solid success wellness plan. This will form the base from which to measure and define your success and wellness.

Many clients complain that the have little time care for themselves and do that things that will sustain their wellness. As a result hey spend far too much time being ill or not being at their optimal level to get maximum results. Would you prefer to schedule time off to rest and relax at your leisure or forced time off being ill? What of multiple fuggy and sluggish days this seem far less productive.

Reflections

Here is how to identify your values:

• Ask yourself, what are my values?
  
• What are the things that are important to me?
  
• How do they reflect my integrity, my spirit and help to give me a sense of balance?
  
• How do they help to define me?
  
• Who do they say I am?
  

Those who master success without a plan to align their wellness are more prone to headaches, heartburns, indigestions and a wellness deficit that looks something like this: achievement + success = −wellness.

No more!! I want you to learn a new math that adds up like this: achievement + success = +wellness. Yes, you can have your cake and eat it too! This is great math that amounts to a well balanced and full life.

It is our responsibility to manage our success well at each level so that we can enjoy success well in all areas of our lives.

Here is how you can align your core values and life principles to gain balance and a foundation from which to build your success wellness plan. Ask yourself these questions and take some time to write out a sentence or two that helps you put them together in a functional way.

Coaching Action

1. What do I need to do to reflect this value in my life? How can I renew my strength and confidence through this knowledge and practice?
   
2. What does this value say about who I am and how can I use it to develop a vision for my wellness success and my overall quality of life?
   
3. How can I live this value daily and how does this give me hope for the future and make my life a source of strength for others?
   
4. What is one thing I need to stop doing to more fully reflect this value and how can I do this daily?
