I Wish My Life Was Different

So you wake up one morning and think, “I wish my life was different.”  And you go on to imagine some different aspect or outcome for yourself.   Perhaps you desire a partner to wake up beside you, or you long for a different partner, or to simply wake up alone.  Perhaps you desire to wake feeling better in your body, having more energy or less anxiety.   Perhaps you desire to feel eager and excited about your day.  Maybe you desire to not worry about how you will pay your bills or get your children through college.   I could go on and on.  The list is endless.

Day after day, you wake up and think for a few seconds, “I wish my life was different.”  Then you either get out of bed and get busy with the tasks of the day, pushing the thought of “something different” out of your mind, or you roll over and pull the covers over your head to block out the dull drum of desires that are dying a slow death within your heart.

Today, I invite you to make an appointment with yourself and give yourself the opportunity to express in writing that inner desire that lurks in the corners of your mind.  Don’t worry about how you will satisfy that desire.  Just befriend it and allow it to have a voice.   Right now, open your calendar and pick 30 minutes for this exercise.  Schedule it within the next 24 hours.  Take fast action!   Don’t delay another day.

Now that you have scheduled the time to meet your desire, you are to plan where you will meet.  Choose a private spot in your home, a shady chair in the back yard, or the corner table in the break room at work.   Take a notebook and pen or your electronic tablet.  And ask this question:   What do I wish was different in my life right now?  Then write it out.  Don’t edit it.  Don’t dwell on it.  Just write it out and save it.   We will work more with it in the next Stepping Stone.

Are Your Ready to Do Things Differently

Boom, boom, boom. The fireworks exploded, the ball dropped, and a new year began. By the time you read this article, you may have already trashed your resolutions. Please don’t despair. There is hope! If you got into your car and headed for an adventure in another state, you would need a roadmap or a GSP. You would make a plan and lay out your route. But you probably don’t do that for your life goals. So year after year you ponder the “what ifs” and then settle for “what comes.” The new possibilities offered by a new year are stimulation and motivation – at least for a day or two. As much as you don’t like change, your brain actually needs it – actually, your brain craves change. Your brain needs to experience new things and new stimuli and challenges in order to keep it from deteriorating. As that new year rings in, you declare, “This will be the year!” “This will be the year I lose those pounds, find my perfect someone, make the money I know I can make, heal my body, or travel abroad. And, then, by the next week, you are filled with disappointment for you have absolutely no idea how to get from where you are to where you want to be.

Are you ready to do things differently this year? Here are some tips from your transformational life coach. Take out a couple of sheets of paper. Make a short list of your most important roles. For me, it was life coach, minister, wife, sister, aunt, business owner, and self-care giver. The next step is to write about what you really want to accomplish in each of your important roles. You may write one or two goals per role. Some roles may have more goals. Listen to your heart and keep asking yourself, “What would I really love?” Be careful to not overwhelm yourself by making a huge list that will only frustrate you in a week or two. It is better to get some wins under your belt.

Once you have made your list of roles and goals, pick a couple of goals to break into steps. You can begin to work on these bite-sized pieces.

If you want help with this process and your personal development, schedule a fre consultation with me. For my friends in Georgia, I am presenting my Create Your Best Year: Your Roadmap To Success on January 24, 2016, at Unity of Gainesville, Gainesville, GA. Check out my calendar for more information. If you are not in Georgia, we can work together via telephone or through Skype. Let this year be your best year yet!


Best blessings,
