Straight Ahead

That is my husband and me at the top of The Ledge of the Willis Tower in Chicago.


I was fine - I didn't freak out at the height (1,353 feet up).  I got in, got our picture taken and promptly got out.  I looked straight ahead the whole time, never down.

 I was thinking that it's similar to going through a rough situation.  Keep your eyes fixed straight ahead - on the future, get through it and get going.  


 In Joy,
Wendy

Are you your own worst enemy?   Learn how to identify and overcome self sabotage during the Ask the Organizer-Coach Q & A Call on Wednesday, March 28th

Self-sabotage.  How does it show up for you? Overthinking? Double booking your calendar? Doubting yourself? Negative self-talk? Procrastinating? Not finishing a project? Worrying? Feeling unworthy? All of the above? Think back to the last time self-sabotage showed up for you.  What form did it arrive in?  Use the list above for a reference or write one of your own. Identifying how self-sabotage is showing up for you is the first step in overcoming it. Often times, negative self talk shows up first.  Only to be followed close behind by self-sabotage. Our greatest enemy is usually - ourselves. Being uncomfortable in your own skin often leads to self-sabotage. Self-sabotage creeps in when we try to control our own destiny......instead of doing the hard work and then letting it evolve naturally.   Join me on Wednesday, March 28th at 11 a.m. CST.  We are going to dive deep into self-sabotage and learn ho...

Change is uncomfortable - but gorgeous at the end.

Change is uncomfortable.  It makes me uneasy.  It's unsettling.   Have you ever felt the same? Change, for me, was also necessary.  Which is totally contradictory to what I just said, right? A few weeks ago, I was talking with my coach and sharing with her that I was feeling super uncomfortable.  I was somewhat aware that I was changing, but I wasn't giving it my undivided attention.   Carol, my coach, explained to me that I was feeling was completely normal.  And I knew it - but I didn't want to necessarily deal with it.  She asked me to embrace it.  Once I did, I got even more uncomfortable.  It was one of the worst feelings I've ever experienced.  It was difficult for me to make a decision.  Who am I?  Who am I changing into?  Do my old thoughts and ideas match who I am becoming?  How is this change going to change the way I present myself, work with clients, live my life? You know what? The moment ...

Freedom, quality time & breathing space

The New Year is giving me permission to let things go that are no longer serving me.   For instance, I had a stack of notecards of affirmations from a mindset program I went through last year.   They served their purpose, yet they were still sitting on my desk.  I let them go. Replaying bad memories.  2017 was just one big %*&# show.  The bad memories of 2017 were definitely not serving me.  So I let them go. Belts!  I had three belts hanging in my closet that I have not worn for years.  They were definitely not serving me.  I let them go. After I let these items and feelings go, I felt free - like I was unblocked and able to move forward. Grab YOUR Lifeline to Freedom here! What is no longer serving you?   Is it time?  Do you feel like you haven't even a moment to breathe?  Is it freedom?  Are you able to live your life your way? Do you want to be able to enjoy quality time and not fee...
