Happy New Year, family and friends! I hope you enjoyed your holiday season and are looking forward to what 2019 has in store.

On that note, I’d like to share an article from a Coach who teaches at Coach Training Alliance, where I received my training. While I prefer “intentions” to “resolutions,” this article very much resounds with me.

Please enjoy! 💖

Creating Positive Change

by Laurie Cameron


It's that time again ...have you made your New Year's Resolutions?

Or are you like many well-intentioned people who have decided it's a losing battle and not worth the aggravation?
New Year's Resolutions are always filled with good intentions and hope for a better life this year than we had last year. But what happens when February rolls around and our good intentions have become a source of frustration and self-recrimination? There are many reasons why resolutions don't stick. See if any of these feel familiar:

Too big or too unrealistic; they create a sense of "Overwhelm-Induced Inertia".
"Floating" Resolutions; they're not attached to your vision.
Externally motivated; they're what someone else thinks you should do or want.
There's no detailed plan or strategy to reach them, they're all talk and no action; or your plan is too broad and not specific enough. Lack of motivation or follow-through.
Too rigid or absolute.
If you want to create positive change in your life, here are some strategies to help you increase your chances for success:

Choose a resolution that feels manageable, yet still challenges you.
Be sure your resolution or goal is clearly attached to your vision; achieving it will take you toward your vision rather than away from it.
Be clear that your resolution is something YOU want.
Have a plan that not only defines the major steps over time, but also the small, individual action steps you can take on a daily basis.
Create some system of accountability; enlist the help of a Buddy who is as motivated as you are.
As you work your plan, allow the process to evolve and be refined.
Step up and resolve to make it a powerful and fulfilling 2019!

Very happy to announce that I successfully completed my DiSC certification!! If you are unfamiliar with DiSC, here is a brief explanation:

DiSC is a personal assessment tool used to improve work productivity, teamwork and communication. DiSC is non-judgmental and helps people discuss their behavioral differences. If you participate in a DiSC program, you'll be asked to complete a series of questions that produce a detailed report about your personality and behavior.

The DiSC model provides a common language that people can use to better understand themselves and to adapt their behaviors with others. This can be within a work team, a sales relationship, a leadership position, or other relationships.

If you have questions or are interested in having your DiSC profile completed, please get in touch!

First Skype session with an international client today!! Luckily I work with techy-folks, or it would not have been as successful due to issues, on my side of the pond, of course. ;)

Very confused: FB has changed the data on my personal page to say I am a "former" Life Coach. Not true, my friends! Also, I can't seem to delete an old Bloom with Ellen page...hmmm.

Oh, and and update on my last post that a new website was coming. It is still in the works! My non-techiness has slowed the process down. :)
