Top 10 Tips To Achieve Your Best In 2009

Wednesday, December 31st, 2008

newbegin What if I was to say that you have the opportunity to make 2009 the best year of your life? With a global economic crisis on our hands, combined with a multitude of other disruptive events you may think twice before agreeing with that statement. Nevertheless I’m telling you that it’s possible, and it can be done. If you allow it, 2009 can truly be your best year! It all starts with you and how much you’re willing to commit toward personal growth and evolution.

Here are 10 tips to get started:

1. Get over the past:

The past is the past so let it stay there. Personal regret, should have done, would have done, didn’t do, wanted to do…none of that is serving you so let it all go. Living in the past only sabotages the present. Now, if you have amends to make or debts to pay, then of course take care of those; but remember they are in the past and will be accepted and added to your future. The important thing is that you let go of any negative attachments and make peace. Remember what’s done is done and the only direction you can go is forward.

2. Tell the truth:

Part of being real is being honest. When you commit to a life of honesty, notice how your whole padagrim in life will shift for the better. Be you because it’s the person you were meant to be.

3. Identify your emotional and physical needs:

Do you know what your needs are? Most people don’t and that is part of the reason why so many people are suffering and living in an unnatural existence. When one’s personal and emotional needs are not met, then that person may tend to act more impulsive and do things like: overspend, overeat, oversleep, etc.. The rule here is identify your needs and get them taken care of.

4. Take responsibility:

Accept the fact that the sum total of your life and quality is the sum total of all your decisions. As everyone has different circumstances in life, everyone has the ability to take responsibility for themself. To truly be in control of your life is to accept the responsibilities that go with it.

5. Know your gifts:

Do you know what your special talents are? If not, then at some level you are not being completely true with yourself. What can you do well that many other people can’t do? Everyone has a special something, so it’s worthwhile to figure out what your natural gifts are. When you discover them, then you can orient your life around them. For example, Tiger Woods has a natural ability for golf which he continually refines with coaching and practice. What are you naturally good at that you could become masterful with additional training?

6. Exercise random acts of kindness:

The universe works on many levels with kindness in the top tier. You don’t have to take my word for it, but notice what it’s like to randomly offer help. Try it, it feels good. It can be something as little as holding the door open for someone, to offering to help a fellow passenger on a plane stow their overhead baggage, or even paying the toll for the car behind you. There are many different things you can do. Get in the habit of performing random acts of kindness and notice the difference it makes.

7. Create boundaries:

Personal boundaries mark your limits of what you do and do not control in your psychological territory. Another way of looking at this is the conduct in which we hold others too, so we can be our best. Do yourself justice and set strong boundaries and stand by them consistently, otherwise people may constantly test you. Not to mention that when your boundaries are vague then your identity comes into question.

8. Get healthy:

You owe it to your body to keep it in shape. Whether you walk one mile, surf for one hour or even hit the gym, make sure to do some sort of physical exercise / activity at least 3 days a week. Your mind will rejuvenate faster and you will feel better about yourself. Have you ever heard anyone say that they regretted exercising?

9. Create financial integrity

This means being in touch with your financial situation and living within your means. Do you have a reserve? Do you save at least 10% of your income? If you are experiencing fear, dread, or anxiety in the area of your finances, then you are experiencing a lack of balance financially; which is often tied to other areas of your life. Once you become in touch with your real needs, then this matter often sorts itself out. It’s always important to be true to your financial well being.

10. Start living life for YOU

Forget what you think you should or ought to do. Instead, ask yourself what do you really want to do with your life? If you aren’t fully living your life, then part of you is missing or incomplete. Once I had a client who was a lawyer and hated it; however he did nothing to change his profession due to the pressure of following in his father and grandfather’s footsteps who were both lawyers. When he starting being honest with himself, and willing to confront his fears with displeasing his father and grandfather he then started living his life based on his terms. A life based entirely on his own desires and natural gifts. If you are wondering what he is doing now,  he’s a chef and extremely happy. Imagine that and good for him! If you aren’t living your own life, then who’s life are you living? 

Happy new year and wishing you a prosperous 2009!

Are You Living Your Best Life? Commit to Improvement for the New Year

Friday, December 26th, 2008

photo by: Michael WatkinsIf you were to imagine your perfect life how would that picture be different from the picture of the one you are living now? According to Benjamin Franklin a perfect day in a perfect life is: 8 hours sleep, 8 hours work and 8 hours play. Now you don’t have to accept Mr. Franklin’s definition of a perfect day as your own, but you have got to admit that his sounds pretty balanced. Everyone’s perfect day in a perfect life will naturally be different.

The next question you ask yourself is “why am I not living the perfect life I imagined?“.   In the words of Henry Ford “If you can imagine it, then it can be done”.  If you are like most people then you can quickly come up with a multitude of reasons why; which by the way is completely normal. Human beings are creatures of wants and those wants are constantly being sabotaged by personal habits. That sabotaging fueled by habits (us) allows us to justify our situation by creating excuses to serve as reasons for not getting what we want out of life.

How do you get what you truly want and change for the better? The first step is to identify which areas of your life you need to work on in order to move closer toward your idea of perfection. Second is to figure out which habits are blocking you from taking that next step (i.e., you say that you want to physically exercise first thing in the morning but you have a habit for waking up at 11:00 AM). Once those habits have been identified, then you take a moment to honestly evaluate those habits and weigh them in with your idea of perfection. If they don’t fit then you decide to break those habits and together we use advanced NLP (Neurolinguistic Programing) strategies to to rid you once and for all of the habits that are holding you back. From there we create an action plan and continue to move forward. As perfection may always remain an ideal, the closer to you get to your ideal, the better your life will exponentially become.

On a side note: These days with so much information out there and so many distractions few of us can truly afford the steep learning curve of life.

It’s possible that you are now asking: how do I get started? If you truly want to identify those areas of your life that can be improved then it all starts with a complimentary 1/2 hour phone consultation (this offer expires Jan 15th, 2009). I don’t offer e-mail consultation (I will answer brief questions though), because I only work with individuals who are committed to change and to living the life they know deep down that they were meant to live. The e-mail route is not a real way to connect with those kind of people. Ideally I’d like to meet face to face with everyone, but truth be told the phone serves the purpose nicely.

During the 1/2 hour private phone consultation we will have a look at your life and see if there is something that coaching can have an impact on. Maybe you already have an idea of something you want to work on and if that’s the case then great, lets move forward because as the saying goes: haste is waste.

Take advantage of this valuable  1/2 hour phone consultation for free now while the offer still stands. Consider it my gift to you for the new year for us to explore your options for a better life.
