Ideal vs Reality

Coaching Thought:

Very often, our biggest stress in life is created by us wanting reality to be different to what it actually is. We waste a lot of time and brain energy wishing things were different. This builds inner tension and leaves us little energy to deal with and face what's in front of us. Either we need to take action and change the situation or we need to face challenges, deal with them and move on.

Coaching Questions:

How well do you deal with the day to day realities of your life?
How does wanting things to be different affect you?
How could you be easier with dealing what is?

Letting Go
Written by Yolanda MacIntyre

Whatever it is, if it doesn’t make you happy, walk away, give it away to someone else who wants it. Let it be their next dream; let it flee from you. Then you have room to grow, to allow magnificent things to fill the vacuum of those seemingly empty places.
