I have just completed one of two coaching sessions designed to complete 2008 and set a brilliant context for 2009. I am amazed at how one hour can change the way I perceive a year of my life and I am left with this thought:
" It is only when you have experienced the right place that you have the distinction that allows you to identify when you are in the wrong place. So if you have only ever been in the wrong place… how are you to know that there is something else, someplace else you should be ? How do you know that there is a better place, one where you will feel alive, excited, enthused ? If all you have known is duty, boredom and normality and that almost low grade misery that seeps into everything you do and think ? "
All I know is this...if you keep on doing the same things you will experience the same results!!!! The only way to find the right place is to stop doing the wrong things. Who was it that said, sometimes you have to take that step off the cliff and trust that you will learn how to fly, failing that, trust that you will find a place to stand.
"What do you do when you have done the courses and read the books and you are still.. you ?" What if who you are is not set in stone and that elusive secret to success and joy is to stop focusing on what you are doing and start to focus on who you are being ? written by Verna van Schaik, Guinesss World Record Holder, this blog explores those questions... and the life lessons Verna learnt breaking not only her limits, but those of the world
