Life Coaching 101 - Stop What You're Doing... It's Not Working!
Stop What You're Doing... It's Not Working!
Do you ever feel like you're spinning your wheels when trying to accomplish anything in life? When this is happening, do you actually take a step back and take stock of what's going on? If not, you need to.
Sometimes we push so hard trying to make something happen when it's just not right or when we're not in perfect alignment with what we are meant to be doing in a particular situation. It doesn't matter if you're starting a new business, trying to work things out with your loved one, or trying to teach your dog new tricks, sometimes, you need to pivot.
No one is meant to stay stuck trying to make something happen or do something that does not work for them. The reasons why it's not working could be anything you can think of. But ask if you are inspired by what you are doing, if it's helping others, or is it just you banging your head against a brick wall?
Remember, there's nothing wrong with course correcting. We have to remember to realign, readjust, re-establish, and recalibrate. We have to hone what we are doing so we can actually reach a point where we are intentionally doing what we are meant to be doing. Now that's a mouthful!!!
Believe in yourself. You can do it!!!

Life Coaching 101 - Why Does Our Nature Doom Us?
Why Does Our Nature Doom Us?
Why do we wait until there is a crisis before we do anything about it? So many people wait until they have a heart attack or get a DUI before they decide to change their habits. It just seems impossible for us to learn from the mistakes of others, but is it really?
We seem to live life with fears and anxiety of the future and regrets of the past. However, when we decide to live in the moment where these things don't exist, how is it that we're choosing to spend our time? Are we spending it frivolously and carelessly with abandon? Or are we using our present moment wisely?
Instead of having regrets of the past, we can learn from it. Instead of having anxiety and fear of the future, we can prepare for it. If we spent our present moment both enjoying it and also learning from our past mistakes and preparing for our possible future, then we wouldn't have to wait for a crisis to happen.
Of course, there are those things that are beyond our control, but for those things that are not, we could at least do something about them. Of course, that is entirely up to you. But, isn't it funny how humans can be? Maybe it's time for us to break the cycle. I think the whole world would be better for it.
Believe in yourself. You can do it!!!

Life Coaching 101 - Awareness Begets Further Awareness
Awareness Begets Further Awareness
Bringing awareness can be very difficult when we are trying to change old habits and patterns. It just seems like it's so easy for us to slip back into unconsciousness. However, I am here to say that every little moment of awareness is a doorway into further awareness. In essence, we are becoming aware of becoming aware.
We must understand that we are trying to break free from very deep ruts that we have developed over an entire lifetime and that's not so easy, because they keep pulling us back in. Rest assured, that every time you catch yourself in that old rut, you are actually rewiring the circuitry in your brain. Eventually that rut won't be so deep and it'll be much easier to pull over into the new pathway that you are trying to form.
The most important thing is that you don't give up. You can never go back to the way you were because you are aware of a new way of being. So, now our only hope is to keep on persevering and to continue to bring the awareness needed in order to change the old habits.
Believe in yourself. You can do it!!!

Life Coaching 101 - Shhh... Listen, the Body is Wise!
Shhh... Listen, the Body is Wise!
For many of us who have been externally driven most of our lives it can be really difficult for us to actually hear what our body is saying to us. It's easier for us to try to push ourselves and overcome whatever physical limitations may be happening.
Now, being able to overcome laziness, lack of motivation, unhealthy habits, etc. is all great, but sometimes we are physically depleted and our body is just screaming for a break. We need to listen to it when this happens.
We must learn to start tapping into what our body is saying to us. If we did, we could prevent injury, burnout, and just flat out setting ourselves behind by not giving ourselves the rest that we need.
When we feel this way, we must sit in the discomfort of it and take account of what is going on. I mean really listen to what the body is saying to us. Maybe it's telling us that we're overdoing something or we've been pushing ourselves beyond what we should be doing.
Just remember, even machines require TLC in order to function properly. When we push a machine beyond its capabilities it eventually breaks down and we are no different. Give yourself the TLC that your body needs so you can come back even stronger when you actually do need to push through something important.
Believe in yourself. You can do it!!!

Life Coaching 101 - So Much Injustice
So Much Injustice
There are so many things going on in this world that are so unfair and simply just not right. It can drive a person to madness, especially when we feel so helpless to do anything about it.
It's sort of like looking back at our childhood traumas and being frustrated because we were helpless to do anything then, but now we're stuck with the aftermath. The harshest reality is that now that we're adults, we have to deal with it and move on. However, dealing with it and moving on is the best solution. This is how we heal ourselves and show those around us to heal. Or else we say stuck where we're at.
This is the same as all the injustices in the world. The only thing we can do is to work on ourselves. If we strengthen ourselves as individuals then we will strengthen ourselves as a community. As a community of healed individuals, we have more power to actually make a change and do something about the wrongs in this world.
Believe in yourself. You can do it!!!

Life Coaching 101 - Should I Stay or Should I Go?
Should I Stay or Should I Go?
From time to time we should analyze why we are in our relationships. This can even mean relationships other than our romantic partners, such as friendships, work, etc. It's important to take stock of the reasons why we choose to be with that person.
Of course, I understand that there can be so many different reasons why people choose to stay together. It could be romantic love, convenience, or any number of things. Sometimes we just can't leave a relationship that we want to, because it's not in the cards.
We must not blame ourselves for being in relationships that we don't want to be in. However, if our safety is not in question, it is important to be honest with the other person and let them know that this isn't working out. Again, I'll emphasize that this should only be done if you are in a safe situation.
Sometimes, you need to work together and help each other out. This means each person giving the other the space they need to prepare for leaving. This of course, is a very mature thing to do and it isn't always easy.
Regardless of what the situation is, it's important that we honor ourselves in this process. If a situation just isn't right for us, it's important that we don't lie to ourselves and continue something that hurts both people involved.
Believe in yourself. You can do it!!!

Life Coaching 101 - Breakups, Separations, and Divorces, Oh My!
Breakups, Separations, and Divorces, Oh My!
Breakups, separations, and divorces are all difficult and painful in one way or another. Whether you're the person who left or the person who got left, it still leaves some sort of a scar. Even though it hurts and you might be struggling, believe me when I say that it's for the best.
There can be a rainbow of reasons why it didn't work out, but regardless of what the reasons are, it clearly wasn't meant to be. There is no point staying in a relationship that is loveless or abusive or traumatizing or just isn't a good fit.
The important thing is that we take the time to heal and grow from the experience. To realize what we will not let back into our lives or to have an understanding of where we went wrong and to not make those mistakes again.
When children are involved, we must do our best to minimize the trauma they experience. It is important for them to see us eventually become stronger in the experience and for them to not feel responsible in any way. We must remember that they are innocent in all this.
Breaking up isn't easy. However, it is an opportunity for us to become better people. Also, breakups are not a failure, but instead a learning opportunity. Now we get to start with a clean slate, but this time with a little experience under our belts.
We also get a chance to learn to love ourselves again. When we do this, we know who and what we want to let back into our lives. The point is to not make the same mistakes again, but instead, let this painful experience make you stronger.
Believe in yourself. You can do it!!!

Life Coaching 101 - You Are the Lesson
You Are the Lesson
Raising kids can be one of the most difficult yet most rewarding things we ever do in life. We want to do a better job than our parents and at the same time also see our children have a better life than we have.
Even if you don't have children, caring for another living being is a massive responsibility. We pour our love into our caring for others, hoping that we see what flourishes within them blossom into something beautiful.
I try to instill core values into my child and good habits for him to proceed through life. When he does his homework I ask him to have a positive attitude, good focus, and use his best effort. These are great strategies for all occasions in life, however as words they are meaningless.
The real lesson comes from him also seeing me do these things in my day-to-day activities. In all honesty, I haven't always been the best example of these tenants. So, I must constantly improve myself. I know I can do a better job and that is what I strive to do.
Being good caretakers means that we are equally as good to ourselves. This means constant growth and self-evolution.
Ultimately, If we really want our children to take on good behaviors and habits, then we must lead by example rather than simply just talking about it.
Believe in yourself. You can do it!!!

Life Coaching 101 - Waiting for Others to Change is Like Waiting for...
Waiting for Others to Change is Like Waiting for...
Do you ever wonder why someone doesn't change the way they treat you, or a bad habit they have, or some other thing about them that gets under your skin? Well, it doesn't really matter.
What matters is that they are having a profound effect on you in some sort of way. If you have been vulnerable with this person about what they are doing and they are unable to hear you or unwilling to make an effort towards changing their behavior, then is it really worth allowing their chaos to disrupt your life anymore?
So, instead of wondering why this person won't change, it is you who will need to make the change. This isn't always easy to hear or accept. However, you must do what you have to in order to not allow this negativity in your life any longer.
Sometimes walking away is the best solution. You cannot let a person continue to bring you down. Your life is true valuable to waste trying to change someone else. The only change we can ever make is within ourselves and that is what taking accountability is all about.
Believe in yourself. You can do it!!!

Life Coaching 101 - False Evidence Appearing Real
False Evidence Appearing Real
Fear is natural and something that we all experience in life. However, our fear must be analyzed and recognized for what it is. In some cases, the fear is rational because what we're afraid of poses a real threat. In other cases, it is irrational because there is no threat, but it's still scary all the same.
Our fear is here to keep us safe and to actually make us stronger. If it is rational fear, then we can be grateful that it is helping us survive. However, if the fear is irrational, we need to realize that it is controlling us rather than us controlling the it. We must face that fear and expose ourselves to it so that we can live our lives free from it.
Remember, the only way to move past our fear is to move through it.

Life Coaching 101 - Vulnerability is a True Badge of Courage
Vunerability is a True Badge of Courage
Vulnerability is one of our greatest strengths. Without it, relationships remain surface level and lack any depth.
That being said, vulnerability within any relationship can be very scary. It's not always easy for us to tell others how we feel or what might be going on with us. But without vulnerability, how can there be true communication?
I think vulnerability can be frightening because we're not always sure how the other person is going to take what we say. There is always the chance that they will not hear us, or become defensive and justify their actions. Or, that they will judge us and shame us for what we are being vulnerable about.
However, if someone truly loves us or really cares about the relationship, they will hear us. Or, they will do what they can to support us or change a behavior if it is hurting us in some way. If someone is not willing to change or hear us, then perhaps more help is required.
It is just as equally important that we hold space for those people in our lives that are vulnerable with us. We must pay the same respect that we expect from others. I would question any relationship where someone is not able to be vulnerable back.
Remember, if something needs to change within a relationship, it is up to us to initiate that open communication with the other party. And if somebody initiates with you, it is up to us to receive them with an open heart.
Believe in yourself. You can do it!!!

Life Coaching 101 - Is it Really the End of the World?
Is it Really the End of the World?
Does it ever feel like it's the end of the world? Like there's just no way to keep on going? Like how are you going to achieve the goals you've set for yourself? Let alone the mundane day to day tasks.
I suggest you stop and take account of what is happening in that moment. Are you hungry, tired, lacking energy, feeling unmotivated, sick, or in some other way not at your peak? If so, this is probably the reason why you feel like you've got the weight of the world on your shoulders.
There are three major pillars to being at your best. Good rest, good exercise, and a good diet. These are not always easy for everyone to do. But at least just getting two of these things down can drastically change your outlook on life.
Whatever it is that is preventing us from being at our best, we must take a hard look at that and see if it is either necessary in our lives, or if there's a way that we can change what it is.
We must remember to be kind to ourselves. If life seems impossible in the moment, it's probably because it is in that moment. So, that's a good time to stop the catastrophizing and make a slight change to address what is happening rather than trying to solve all yours and the world's problems.

Life Coaching 101 - The Gift Horse's Mouth is a Two-Way Mirror
The Gift Horse's Mouth is a Two-Way Mirror
Do you always discredit a compliment when it's paid to you? Or do you shy away from help when people are genuinely trying to offer it? Why do we do this?
Important to know that this behavior is all about us and we need to explore why. When people are genuinely paying us a compliment or trying to help us, it actually does us more harm to not graciously accept, then it does to accept.
Of course, we need to know the source, but I'm talking about real honest help and compliments. Not somebody who's out to hurt us or gain for their own benefits.
When we can a truly accept someone else's graciousness, we learn that we are worth it and people care about us. We matter to others and therefore learn to matter to ourselves. It's such a powerful lesson to learn.
Remember, when someone lifts us up, it gives us the power to lift others up as well.

Life Coaching 101 - It Takes "YOU" to Tango 💃🕺
It takes "YOU" to tango 💃🕺
When we are in situations that are uncomfortable having to do with other people, it is very hard for us to sometimes see our part in it. However in order for the situation to change, it is necessary for us to see how we are contributing to it.
Of course, this doesn't apply to situations where we truly are victims such as things that have happened in our childhood, in abusive relationships, etc. Also, there are certainly situations where one person is definitely more at fault, however the situation is not beyond our control and we still have a part in it.
So, if the situation we are in is somewhat within our control, then we must recognize this and see it for what it is. We must bring an awareness to our part in the situation and accept our role in it. Once we can do this, then we can take accountability for it which will then spur action.
Taking responsibility is not always easy, but it is so necessary for our growth as human beings. Once we take responsibility, we have the power to change anything in our life.
Believe in yourself. You can do it!!!

Life Coaching 101 - Emotions Have Rights Too!
Emotions Have Rights Too!
Why is it so difficult for us to be around other people's negative emotions or even our own? It's because they don't feel good. It triggers something within us that is uncomfortable. This is worth exploring.
Our emotions and feelings are there to tell us something. They deserve their place, because they are an important process that our minds and bodies need to go through. We're having them for a reason and that should not be tucked away or covered up.
If we can just allow the emotions and feelings to have their space without trying to fix them or stop them, we may find some truly valuable information within them. And they often go away very quickly when we allow them to have their space. If we don't, then they will come out later in weird disjointed ways.
So, remember to be kind to your emotions and your feelings, because they are actually there to help you. Most importantly, be kind to yourself and the ones you love.
Believe in yourself. You can do it!!!

Life Coaching 101 - To Know Thyself...
To Know Thyself...
So many of us that have had externalized points of view have such a hard time actually knowing ourselves. This is because we look to the world outside ourselves to know ourselves, but can never find it out there and eventually, if we're lucky, we are lead back to ourselves.
We often develop this from some sort of trauma at childhood where our safety depends on pleasing and manipulating the world around us. If we can shape the world to what makes us feel safe, then we assume we will be okay. This is often not the case. In fact, it very often backfires on us.
To truly know oneself means to look inward and to sit with the process that happens within our own body. To understand the inner workings of our own mind, to be with what the heart feels, and to learn to trust what the gut inherently knows.
Once we can do these things, then we can truly know ourselves. We can learn to love and trust ourselves in this process. When all this actually takes place we are then truly being ourselves.
Believe in yourself. You can do it!!!

Life Coaching 101 - What Else Might There Be?
What Else Might There Be?
Why do children always bounce back? Where does all the resilience come from? Why are they so accepting of their situation?
I believe it is because they have very little life experience to go off of and also their safety depends on it.
As adults, we grow up and we realize that our childhood wasn't everything that we thought it was or that it wasn't a "normal" childhood.
In what ways are we still living our lives like this? How are we being resilient to our current situation? How are we being accepting of our current situation? And what else might exist that we are not realizing from our limited experience?
There is an entire world out there. There's no reason why we should just merely survive as adults. Now that we are not children, we have choices and options now, and we can all choose to thrive.

Life Coaching 101 - Are You Ready To Give Up?
Are You Ready To Give Up?
Taking on a new task or trying to quit something to improve our lives can be a very daunting journey. There are so many parts of this journey that must be experienced and overcome in order for us to succeed.
Wanting to stop or quit is just another part of this journey. It's really not about getting to the final destination, but more about getting through the stages before that happens.
Just know that you're not the only one. There are so many others out there going through the same thing that you are going through right now. There are so many people experiencing what you are experiencing. You Are Not Alone in this.
You can build a community of people who are having the same experience and can support you and vice versa. Don't surround your self with people who enable you and your self-defeating or bad behaviors. Surround yourself with people who will push you in the right direction and will help you succeed.
Don't give up! You can do this!!!

Life Coaching 101 - Why Must It Be Your Last Day?
Why Must It Be Your Last Day?
We always hear people bringing up the thought experiment about, "what would you do if it was your last day alive?"
What if we were to bring a new perspective to it and imagine that it was our first day alive. I don't mean like when we were born, but more like we just woke up without the baggage from the past and the worries about the future.
Imagine the potential that holds in it. It just takes a slight shift in our perspective and we can live our lives as though it is our first day. Of course, we all have our reality we live in, but imagine how you can start to shift your reality by adopting this new perspective.

Life Coaching 101 - Not My Finest Modeling Moment
Not My Finest Modeling Moment
If we take an honest look at ourselves and examine the way we handle ourselves as adults, what do we see?
Is it safe to say that our responses and reactions to situations are similar to the way our care takers would have responded or reacted?
For me this is the case in many situations. And now that I have a child, I see the same thing happening with him.
So, it is my job to try and course correct. Not only do I have to change my reactions and responses, but I must also teach my child how to change his.
We often fall into the behaviors and habits that were modeled for us. And so, it is my job to model healing and growth for my son.
It is okay for our children to see us make mistakes. It is even more important that they see us correct these mistakes and to make the changes that are so vital to breaking the cycle.
This way it doesn't get passed on to their children and so on.

Life Coaching 101 - Get Out of the Way
Get Out of the Way
Think of a time when you were able to actually accomplish something after overcoming all the obstacles that were in your way. Think of how this felt to do it all on your own. What it was like to make mistakes, but to get back up and to keep going. Wasn't it an amazing feeling?
Why do we rob people of this experience? If we could just remove ourselves and allow people to do what they need to do on their own, they will learn so much faster what it is that they are meant to do and to even figure out whether it is something they want to do.
I think of this when I think of raising a child. Of course we want to keep them safe, but we also need to let them make their mistakes, learn how to handle those mistakes, and to grow from those mistakes.
The more we insert ourselves into somebody else's process, the less of a chance they get to develop their own skills and ways of dealing with the obstacles in life.
So I say, get out of the way 😉

Life Coaching 101 - Trigger Happy
Trigger Happy
When we are triggered, we are almost instantly thrown into an intense emotion. These triggers are often linked to things from our past that are traumatizing to us. The trigger puts us right back in that situation and we tend to lose control over ourselves.
I personally don't believe this is a bad thing. Our triggers are signs that tell us something about ourselves. They are there to remind us of what still needs to be worked on.
The gap between the trigger and the emotion is extremely small, but if we start to bring awareness to the effect they have on us, we can start to bring pause between the trigger and the emotion. This little gap between the trigger and the emotion will begin to grow, and in that space we will be able to decide how we choose to act. This is where we begin to have self-mastery over ourselves. This is where we begin to have a little freedom over those things that have had control over us.

Life Coaching 101 - Let's Do This Thing... Final Thoughts
Let's Do This Thing... Final Thoughts
So, we've been talking about the fact that we can do anything we want to in this world and I want to wrap up that conversation. So here are some final thoughts and reminders.
First, let's talk about the final stage of doing something. The "being" stage. This is when you've done something so often that it now has become a part of who you are and you no longer have to think about it. In this stage, muscle memory has taken over and you can focus your attention elsewhere.
We also talked about the fact that it's okay to not know what you want to do. It's all part of the process. You will eventually be inspired by something.
Next, if you are going to do something, make it worthwhile. Do something that will actually help the world, not something pointless and meaningless that just wastes time and energy.
Lastly, just remember that this isn't about the destination. It's all about the journey. During the third stage which is the "doing" stage, you are meant to build resilience and character so that you can do whatever you want. If you can overcome yourself, you can overcome anything, and in turn truly create something worthwhile and meaningful.

Life Coaching 101 - It's Not What You're Doing, It's How You're Doing It
It's Not What You're Doing, It's How You're Doing It
If you've been following my videos for the last few days you know that they're all about the fact that we are able to do whatever we want to in this lifetime with very little standing in our way.
Yesterday I started talking about the four stages to getting something done. The third stage is the doing stage which is actually where the "getting done" happens.
However, what's important is not so much what we're doing but how we're doing it. This is the stage where we have a lot of setbacks, oppositions, roadblocks, failures, and anything else that can possibly stand in our way.
So it can be said, that this is a stage of character building. How you handle these setbacks and these failures determines how able you are to pursue and persevere what it is that you are meant to do.
So, whatever you do, don't let these setbacks stop you. You must rise to the occasion and carry on. You got this!
When we are in the process of doing something or making some sort of change,
Next comes to third stage which we will talk about extensively in tomorrow's video.

Life Coaching 101 - Whatever it is... It's a Process
Whatever it is... It's a Process
Since we have the ability to do whatever we want in this lifetime, there are certain steps that we need to take. These steps, are just the natural order of how things come about when we are trying to accomplish something new. So it's not so much something we need to follow, but more of something we need to be aware of.
There are four steps altogether.
Thinking
Talking
Doing
Being
In the first stage we are letting our thoughts come together. We are taking our experiences and our influences and formulating some sort of idea.
During the second stage we are bouncing our ideas off of the rest of the world. We are trying to decide whether it is something we want to do or not do by getting the input of others. Eventually we decide to stop talking about it and start doing it.
Next comes to third stage which we will talk about extensively in tomorrow's video.
