Coach's Corner

“It never ceases to surprise me at the infinite capacity of the human mind to resist the introduction of useful knowledge.”
- Thomas Raynesford Lounsbury

The comeback is always stronger than the setback

Cliches are cliches for a reason. They hold a nugget of valuable wisdom. But you must be open to hearing it. The people you surround yourself with, have an influential impact on who you become. That cliche has never been more accurate throughout my life. Over my sixty year journey, I have keenly focused on the art of relationship building while finding opportunities to develop and nurture authentic, sustainable and genuine win-win partnerships with people. I am not the person I am today without these relationships.  

We must become more informed about our bodies and minds. To move forward from where you are standing, you need to see where you are. Life is an evolution of change. You can reinvent yourself and change your mind at any time. Seeking fresh experiences, learning different skills, opening new doors, inspire and educate us in a way that promotes mental clarity. The best way to learn is to ask questions. The more questions we have about life, the more we will improve. Give yourself the chance to see the beauty and wonder in every aspect of your life. 

To excel, we must have the courage and discipline to show up at our very best. On your self-discovery journey hold yourself to the highest of standard, while freeing yourself of automatic judgments that arise in your mind with every experience you have. Pay attention to the noise you let into your ears. Always be a work in progress. Our life is what our thoughts make it. When reacting to your judgments you are only seeing your interpretation of what is there. Letting go of those judgments helps you understand things as they actually are. 

Life is about turning obstacles into opportunities. Create your own manual and handbook for living. All of us have to earn our life on Earth. It is not a free ride. To better support others you must always focus on building yourself up. When you get rid of the clutter in your life and mind, then growth and progress are able to transpire. Explore the outer depths who you are while never forgetting to clean your room, before saving the world!
