Bye 2021...hello 2022

Bye 2021...hello 2022:

Honest Assessment of 2021: I did not make this a priority in 2021. I feel like I have built and continue to build good coaching material, but I am not putting it into a form that can help others. Is this just lazy? Or not thinking enough of what I have to say in the way of inspiring and motivating and educating? Think about it and remove the blocks....IF this matters to you. If not, and you want to keep this to yourself, that is ok too. But that really deprives you and others.

Vision for 2022 with the why for commitment: Start thinking legacy Celia. You have made progress in so many areas. Stopping smoking, stopping binge drinking, stopping bulimia, date rape and letting go of victim mentality and the stories that you though would garner supportive love and attention...and SO MUCH MORE! You don't have to have this all down in the perfect words or have the perfect answers. THERE ARE NONE. Just share what worked for you and hope that it triggers something in someone else. Be willing to be vulnerable. Little by little. challenge by challenge. Acknowledge it to yourself and expand upon it for others. Ask their advice and direction for others...the regular guys and the professionals.

Purpose: devoting your time to projects that spark your imagination, inspire, excite, and satisfy you

Most humans are not born consciously knowing what their purpose is. It must be found through exploration.

Most living things belong to a particular soul group and are born knowing their purpose in life. An animal will spend its day foraging for food, taking care of itself and its young, and creating a home. No one tells an animal to do this, yet it instinctively knows how. Humans, for the most part, are not born consciously knowing what their purpose is.

Purpose gives our life meaning. When you discover your purpose, you can live your life with intention and make choices that serve your objective for why you are here on the planet. Finding your purpose is not always easy. You must embrace life wholeheartedly, explore many different pathways, and allow yourself to grow. Your purpose is as unique as you are and will evolve as you move through life. You don't need anyone's permission to fulfill your purpose, and no one can tell you what that purpose is. Finding and fulfilling your purpose can be a lifelong endeavor. To figure out what your purpose is, ask yourself what drives you -- not what forces you out of bed in the morning, but what makes you glad to be alive. Make a list of activities that you wish you were involved in or think about a career path that you would love to embark upon. These are the endeavors that can help you fulfill your purpose and bring you the most satisfaction.

Picture yourself working on projects that don't interest you or fulfill your purpose, yet they help satisfy your basic survival needs. Imagine how living this way each day would make you feel. Next, picture yourself devoting your time to projects that spark your imagination, inspire, excite, and satisfy you. More often than not, these activities are some of the ways that you can fulfill your life purpose. Time spent on these endeavors will never feel like a waste. Live your life with purpose, and you will feel significant and capable because every action you take and each choice you make will have meaning to it.

Kix Coach

 

Ok, so I had a great talk with Kimberly about social anxiety and what other people MAY be thinking or saying. About family and judgements and unconditional love. About being perfect - not in a conceited kind of way, but because thinking anything else would be an insult to God. I told her about the Life Wheel and that I would share that with her. She can help and coach me for the swim and I will reciprocate with some Life in Balance work to help her:-)

 Balance. Quiet time when I just hang. and Manic Idea time when I am all lit up with excited plans. The Monday.com tool has me organized and aware of all the areas that I need to pay attention to. As I bring back out the Labyrinth Book and the Areas of Life Management tools that work together so well - I think there will be even more opportunities to find new ways to find balance as I reach for highest potential - visualizing the future I want and not living in the past. Not letting those memories crowd out my ideal. This is a work in progress, but there are some definite thoughts I do not want to carry into my future with me.

Accountability!

 Heeeey! I am back on track with Margie, my Accountability Partner. I also told Donna that I want her on my Dream Team. I was coaching Shena on her Coaching business and it reminded me how good the tools are that I have developed over the years as I learned from other coaches. I just looked at the Mind Mapping concept and created some of my own - I think this will be a good tool for me and to add into my client services - both professionally and personally! I will also ask MaryJane and some of my other clients to help me as I help them!!

New place & space; Mentally and Physically!

I have settled into a new place & space mentally and physically for sure. I  LOVE my new office, and feel blessed that I had been able to spread out in the big house for the year of transition. Now I have a beautiful working space; still loving my Fort Celia (with a new bed) and a happy Gracie! I have adopted intermittent fasting so my physical body is healthy and happy and always evolving toward more flexibility, strength and endurance. Between my hikes, and paddling and stretching I plan to add more weights and yoga. I am adding art with friends, and a social walking club. I feel more in balance than ever! I will do another life wheel and know there are areas to work on, but overall I am doing really well. HOTM is helping me see other areas of shifting old patterns and habits, and I am loving the renewed focus on meditation and using chanting to stop the monkey mind. Podcasts are a new thing for me - there are so many smart people out there and I love listening to them!
