What Would You Do?

What would you do if you were confident you could do it?

Imagine having all of the information you need, doable steps laid out before you, and the motivation to propel you forward.

What might you be capable of achieving?

So often we talk ourselves out of pursuing things that would bring us joy or fulfillment because the end result feels so far away. It can be overwhelming to think about all of the steps in between where we are now and where we want to be, or worse—what it might feel like if we don’t make it.

But how often do we consider what it would be like if we did?

I recently came across a post on Instagram that struck me in the heart. They were the words of a psychotherapist I follow named Gabes Torres that read,

“This year, I learned how much it hurts to dream. I also learned it hurts more not to.”

I feel that sentiment so deeply!

Coaching is one of the few spaces where we are encouraged to explore what life would be like if things went well. Free from “right and wrong”, “shoulds” and “have to’s”, it’s a safe and supportive environment for us to discover what we really want and how we can move towards it in a practical way.

Creating a personal wellness vision that is inspiring and energizing is the source of long-term motivation. It’s what keeps us going in the face of challenges that could otherwise knock us off course and it’s what helps us get back up when we fall.

Visioning is not woo-woo. It’s about designing your life in alignment with your values so you can feel good and be happier.

Who doesn’t want that?

If you are feeling unmotivated, stuck, or dissatisfied with your current state of affairs, consider working with a board-certified coach who can guide you through the visioning process. Don’t be surprised if you find some fresh motivation to help you take that first step!
