One week down

Whew, I thought I lost my blogg. Okay, i found it.

I am grateful for the strength that I have, even though I am in pain to entertain my friends, and cook meals for my family.

I have a peer coach for my business. He explained that it is not as hard as I think it is. He is right. I worry too much. I need more self-confidence, and I will be fine. It was really cool, how he did some physiology exercises. They really helped.

I had my first trial session, which was pro bono. I was a little stiff at first, but I know it takes practice. We learned that listening is the most important aspect of coaching. Just listening, and reflecting back to our client makes them feel safe. I am confident I will build a good practice, and get referrals. After all, what is good for the goose is good for the gander. Whatever that means. If I can coach someone who needs more self confidence, I can coach myself. I have to value myself, before I can value others. So, if I want to be an effective coach who helps people shift negative perspectives about themselves, I better start with me.


Okay, I had a big weekend, and I am exhausted. Tomorrow is another day. A new beginning. Find a job you enjoy, and you will never have to work another day in your life. Confucius

I'm really going to enjoy my work
