Anamchara - Life Coaching and Beyond

Written by Tony Cuckson


This article shows you seven ways to move into life beyond coaching.

In Corroguerepparttar air is chill andrepparttar 129405 frost is onrepparttar 129406 ground.

On these autumn morningsrepparttar 129407 spider’s webs are glistening like each was arrayed with diamonds. The red berries ofrepparttar 129408 holly stand out againstrepparttar 129409 dark green of their shining leaves. It is a time simply to look and be glad atrepparttar 129410 wonder of this creativity. It is a time simply to stand and stare.

Like many people I receive unsolicited mail. This is by ordinary post and by email. Yesterday I received, viarepparttar 129411 post, a letter inviting me to train as a “Life Coach.” As a writer on “being enough” I reflected on what it is to haverepparttar 129412 need for a “Life Coach.”

In this "Type A" society life coaching might compoundrepparttar 129413 problem of “doing more” and “being less.” So I share with you what I see asrepparttar 129414 blessing of life beyond coaching. This is not to invalidate wonderful work that many dedicated individuals bring to this profession out of a sense of love and compassion.

1.You are a “being.”

In this rush intorepparttar 129415 noise and haste of this 21st Century we forget we are “human beings.” Life Coaching that takes you away from this essence takes you further from “life.” It may take you further into “doing your life.” This may mean you achieve more. You may be more successful. You might achieve more goals, but you might also miss. You might miss this extraordinary blessing of simply being alive. You might missrepparttar 129416 journey and only ever be focused on arriving.

2.You already know “life.”

You are a mystery. You are unique. No one knows you better than yourself. In this respect you are all knowing. You need to start to trust this. You need to start to trust inrepparttar 129417 process. Berepparttar 129418 one who knows. We are taught throughout our lives to accumulate knowledge. We put aside our “inner telling sense” to be filled up with rational thought alone. You are alreadyrepparttar 129419 expert. You do not need more knowledge of how to do. You need to be more and do less. The paradox is that in learning to be more you are able to do more in less and less time.

3.You are beautiful.

Take time for beauty. Beauty is not a function of goal setting and time management. Beauty is your essence. If you miss this essentialness then you truly miss. No amount of “life coaching” will compensate for a life of achievement alone. Beauty is where you belong. It is your birthright. There is nothing you need to do in order to realise this. Asrepparttar 129420 sage Lao Tzu advised. “The way to do is to be.” This is productive beyond measure because it is magical.

4.You are at one.

You are already at one. You are a whole and holy being. This sense of oneness is available at all times. Constantly “doing” your life will only take you further fromrepparttar 129421 real life. This isrepparttar 129422 gift of knowing that you and life are not separate. You can never be separate from life. Thinking that we are separate from life is like a fish inrepparttar 129423 ocean looking forrepparttar 129424 experience of water. We need more relaxation into letting go rather than adding to our ever-increased requirement for achievement.

Going The Extra Mile

Written by Andrew Henry


Do you know people who just won't stop something until they're convinced it's complete?

Do you see people getting great results for seemingly doingrepparttar same as everyone else?

This article is aboutrepparttar 129402 power of Going The Extra Mile.

If you're an Internet Marketer then this could be important for you, for anyone else it should be a fundamental way of life as well.

I believe that our lives are a little bit like a computer game: We start off with all ofrepparttar 129403 variables and parameters available to us with unlimited possible paths and outcomes. As our lives progress, we make decisions and pick up tools alongrepparttar 129404 way. Those same circumstances are there for other people too, but somehow each person makes different choices and takes a different path, ultimately leading to different end results.

If you've been involved in any online projects, or even just been part of a couple of Joint Ventures, you'll see that (just as in a computer game),repparttar 129405 people that approach things withrepparttar 129406 complete game in mind, do a lot of little extra things with miraculously seem to make a lot of difference. They make sure they've considered all ofrepparttar 129407 options before moving forward, but they understandrepparttar 129408 need for urgency in order to finish within time limits. They look for all ofrepparttar 129409 possible opportunities before leaving an area of consideration.

These people gorepparttar 129410 extra mile to ensure that they don't get nearrepparttar 129411 end of their game and realise they missed something vital alongrepparttar 129412 way. These people gorepparttar 129413 extra mile to do allrepparttar 129414 little things that only make a small difference atrepparttar 129415 time but combine to make a huge difference inrepparttar 129416 long run.

For example, if you've been running a website(s) for any length of time and have had visitors come and go without giving them an opportunity to let you contact them with updated information and offers (using an ezine, or autoresponder) - You probably know that you're leaving money onrepparttar 129417 table and not goingrepparttar 129418 extra mile to give those peoplerepparttar 129419 benefit of what you're offering. An email facility (sequential autoresponder) is one ofrepparttar 129420 most effective marketing tools available currently (despite its reduced effect due to Spam), yet there are thousands of webmasters who didn't implement this when they created their site, and have lost money because of it.
