The other day I was speaking with one of my favorite clients. She was telling me about her feelings of despair and disconnect from her goals. Isn’t it uncanny how you begin the New year with great hopes only to find them all shattered by February 1st? As we reviewed her feelings and current events of her life, we came to the conclusion that without the intentional act of having goals and regular “check ins” it is so easy to vacillate and become stuck in life. This client is no different than you or I. When I set goals for myself and do not review them daily, no matter how good the outcome could be, I slowly become stagnant. So, how about you? Can you relate to this pattern of behavior in your life? How did January go, have your progressed toward your life’s dream or have you found yourself disconnected from what you really want? If you are like most folks, you will agree that you want more for your life, for your fami- ly, and possibly your business, but you just do not know where to begin. The good news is you are not a basket case who is incapable of progressing; on the contrary, you just do not have a team that surrounds you and supports you in your goals. I want to remind you that your life has great value, it has great purpose, the world is waiting for you to “show up” and be the person you have always desired to be. It never ceases to break my heart when I see my neighbors and friends who have lost , hope. I challenge you to think about your life. Ask yourself this. Are you living the life Michael Armfield you have always dreamed of? Are you challenged by your work and able to end the Mentoring, Training day with peace and contentment? If there was a way to change the course of your life, are you willing to take those steps and create the life you desire? & Coaching I am ready and waiting to meet you and learn more about your desire for your life.
