One of the most powerful lessons is acceptance, letting go and unlearning. I’ve come a long way on my journey and helping others with theirs.
I’ve learnt not to force anything: conversations, friendships, relationships, attention, love. Anything forced is not worth fighting for. Whatever flows, flows. It is what it is.
There is one activity that fills my heart with pure joy. It is when I work with my clients in our coaching sessions on becoming more self-aware by exploring themselves, their fears, their limitations, and how they can achieve their dreams.
I have learned how to recognise if I am living my dreams. Today I know I’m living my mission with each a-ha moment that my clients express during our sessions. I also learned to trust my gut. It doesn’t lie to me.
This is a short post to remind you to do what brings you joy.
It is an open invitation to smartly manage your energy, following Pareto’s principle of 80-20.
I dedicate 20% of my time to coaching & consultancy, bringing me 80% of the energy which helps me with day-to-day life and my full-time job.
Everyone says that if you want to feel even better, find what brings you joy, develop personally, grow, and live an extraordinary life. But I know how challenging this can be. I know how that feeling of being trapped. I’ve lived those days with zero to below zero energy levels. I went through dark days with clouded judgement and an inability to point out what brings me joy and happiness. Many of us are used to pointing out what doesn’t make us happy and what goes wrong, which can help as a short-term solution but not a long-term one.
Why is that? (you might think?) Because where our energy goes, our focus is, and if our focus is on what goes wrong in our life, that’s what our life and reality will be about. Shifting from what goes bad to what goes well and moving toward our dreams and goals is easier said than done. But there are tools and ways to do it.
Here are few examples:
- Learning to unlearn (those habits and thinking patterns that aren’t useful to you anymore)
- Learning to let go (of those shoulds & musts)
- Learning to accept (yourself too)
- Learning to forgive (yourself too)
- Learning to cultivate (patience, resilience, and compassion)
- Learning about yourself
If you’re ready (committed) to find some answers or discover yourself without forcing it, then be brave enough and reach out to me, and let’s have a cup of coffee. It can be one of your best decisions.
