An Exceptional Life

#coaching abundance love success transformation Aug 26, 2021

“If you want to live an exceptional and extraordinary life, you have to give up many of the things that are part of a normal one” Srinivas Ro

Do you get a little anxious when reading that quote? Why do I have to give up anything to have an extraordinary life? Can’t I have it all?

Why would you? What you have now is not all that you want. What you have is keeping you from achieving your potential. It’s scary to think that you need to give up safe and comfortable things for the uncertainty of what’s next. Who is that person that needs to be discovered, unwrapped, sculpted to achieve greatness? I love the analogy of our lives being a piece of marble, and we are the sculptor, the artist that chips away slowly, uncovering the beauty that is ultimately there. I think of Michaelangelo sculpting David.

It’s exciting to think about living an exceptional life. Though are you willing to make the sacrifices. Are you ready to leave behind the comfort of the...

Focus

abundance business coaching focus productivity success Aug 24, 2021

When Warren Buffet was asked the most critical thing that a person needs to succeed, his answer was Focus.

If you don’t have focus, and I will add clarity to the mix, you will be hard-pressed to have the success you desire. Of course, you can still have success in life, though not to the level that one wants.

So what does it take to have this type of focus and clarity? How to sustain it consistently throughout your life. Like life itself, there is an ebb and flow. As you are traveling through this journey, your lens will be in and out of focus. Your objective is to keep it focused for as long as you can. As it starts to get cloudy, fuzzy by circumstances arising out of your control that fog up the lens, readjust, pivot, change it so that you can get back to being productive and back to where it is focused again.

The stronger the WHY, the easier the how becomes. The stronger the WHY easier it is to Focus. To be clear as to the direction that you want to go.

Great! We have...

How to accomplish...my morning mantra!

abundance business coaching morningmantra success transformation Aug 03, 2021

"I am going to stay out of my own way today, I am going to keep my Ego in check, and I am going to fight The Resistance every step of the way. "

Easier said than done for sure. So how do we do this?

First, be aware that these are just obstacles in our lives. Remembering that obstacles are opportunities for growth. With that mindset, how can you not have a great day? A failure is only one if you don't learn from it. Any day that you know something new is a good day. So let's start from that perspective.

I am going to stay out of my own way:

How are we going to do that? Well, to say there is one correct answer is foolish. So I am going to just make some suggestions. Things that have worked for me in the past and are still working. Realize that as you grow and change, the actions you need to take will need to change. So be flexible.

Set up your day the night before. In other words, have a good evening routine. Know what your day will look like...

My Morning Mantra...

abundance morningmantra productivity success transformationalcoaching Jul 29, 2021

“I am going to stay out of my own way today, I am going to keep my Ego in check, and I am going to fight The Resistance every step of the way. “

This is my morning mantra. You might have even noticed it on FB and LI if you follow me there. These are all references from books that I have read lately and have resonated with me. Staying out of my own way is from The Big Leap by Gay Hendricks, Keep my Ego in check is from Ryan Holiday’s book Ego is the Enemy, and The Resistance is from Steven Pressfield’s book The War of Art.

I mention the books because I think that you would get a lot out of reading them as I did. I also mention them as a bit of insight into who I am and what is important to me in my work and life. I just don’t guide others through their journey’s I, too, am guided through mine.

In helping myself, I can be a better coach, guide, mentor however you might see me.

As I so lightheartedly respond when people ask me what I do, I...

What could your life look like?

businesscoaching success transformationalcoaching yourfutureself Jul 27, 2021

Mine, yours, does it really matter. What could our lives look like? I could use coaching just as much as anyone else. Maybe even more.

We all have similar issues. Some of us are aware of them, and some are not.
Awareness is the first step to progress.
Some people aren’t even aware they are the problem. They are the bottleneck, the obstacle getting in the way of who they can be and what their lives can look like.
There are so many books written about all of this. It’s never an easy solution though it does sound simple. Just Do It! That’s what Nike says. And if it was that simple, we would all be where we want to.
What a wonderful world we would be living in then. But is it that simple? Is it that easy? I am sure you have all heard the saying,” It’s simple, not easy. “ I guess they are both not easy. What a surprise!
It takes work and willingness and insight, and the help of a few friends. And who knows what else along the way. Oh, and I...

Are You Deserving?

Are You Deserving?

Is it a tricky question or a trick question? I've heard people say, "you are what you're committed to. " Measuring this by looking to see what you have in your life. At your relationships, at your bank account, at yourself in the mirror. What you currently have and what you see is what you are committed to. You can also say that's what you deserve. Don't mistake that for what your potential is but what you deserve. Not what you are worthy of but again, what you deserve. The work that you have put in each and every day is what you currently have in your life. So if you don't like what you see, you have can choose to change it. But you need to be brutally honest with yourself. You have to be truthful. Otherwise, nothing is going to change.

This is what I was faced with and the question, amongst many others, that I ask myself often. If things aren't going as I planned or hoped, am I deserving? Usually, the brutally honest answer is no. There are things that I...
