Day Twelve: Joyfully Organized - A Cuppa

Each day from December 7th through the day of the Joyfully Organized Teleclass - January 7th - I will be posting each day about something that made me happy, joyful, smile or laugh - you get the idea.

Today was a kind of tough day.  To come up with something to be joyful about.  Ever have one of those days?  

 I finally came up with something that I could be joyful about.  Coffee.  (I know, right?)  Now, I had my usual two cups this morning before I left to work with a client.  When I got home and walked into the door I thought how wonderful it would be to have a cuppa.  So I did.  Of decaf.  It was delicious and I thoroughly enjoyed it.

I just thought of something else I am joyful about!  During the session with my client this morning she asked if I would mind if she played Christmas music.  Well of course I don't mind.  It was so nice to get to enjoy Christmas music while we worked.

 I know it's not always easy to be joyful but if you can, you can usually think of just one thing to be joyful about.  So I ask - what made you joyful today?

In Joy,


Wendy

Intentions

A couple of years ago, my husband and I traveled to Italy for a 3 week trip. On the way to board our plane to return home, we got questioned by the gatekeepers at the airline.  What was your business in Italy?   What did you purchase?  How long were you here?   When I told the guy 3 weeks, he didn't believe me because we had no checked luggage.  We only had the two carry on's that you see here - along with my purse and a backpack. "You mean to tell me that you've been in Italy for 3 weeks and this is all the luggage you have?", said the attendant.  Yep.  His next question, "What did you buy?"  2 DVD's and a pair of shoes.  "Your joking, right?"  Nope.  I said that we traveled to Italy to enjoy the experience, not to shop.  Apparently this is not the norm. So much so that the attendant guy said that people bring empty suitcases with them so that they can fill them with their purchases.   Us doing just the ...

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 ...
