Are you striving or are you thriving? How would your life be different if you could make this profound mental shift?

Here’s process my client used to make shift in her life, why not give it a try?

1. She called for a “time out”. She put her life on pause for a moment and reflected. She became aware that despite apparent forward movement in her life, there was still something out of balance. She was tired of feeling stressed. She acknowledged what she was feeling and began to verbalize it.

2. She let herself imagine what it might be like to be thriving in her life instead of struggling. She detailed various areas of her life and painted a clear picture of what her life would be like next year at this time.

3. Then she reassessed her projects: what she did want to take forward with her, and what did she need to let go of in order to prioritize her time according to her values and purpose?

4. Next, she looked at tasks she thought she “had” to do to succeed versus what she “wanted” to do. Much to her surprise, she found they were same tasks; with this reframe, she realized she liked tasks as they were an essential part of her professional expression.

5. Finally, she resumed her activities and strategies, but this time with a very different outlook. She now approached her same life and tasks with a renewed sense of excitement and focus.

Today, she’s thriving. Her energy has increased and her stress level has decreased. Now, she has a bigger problem, business is rolling in. It’s a pretty great problem to have.

It’s YOUR life…imagine possibilities!
