Your Past, Your Present and Your future is of one constant and that one constant is YOU.

YOU are that VERY STUFF that will make up YOUR FUTURE.

What it means is simple, if you keep doing what you have always done, you will keep getting what you have always gotten. The world does not change but you change. You make that choice to shift and as you shift and transform, so do your inner world. A shifted inner world brings out a completely different experience of the external world.

But how does one shift? How does one ever come to a stage where one grows in awareness that there’s a need to shift? How does one do that? But most importantly why does one do that? What is the need to shift, if ever there is such a need?

In coaching, we spend hours digging with the coachee. We go to the core to uncover along with the coachee – patterns, programs, beliefs, values, rules, agreements, relationships, identity, intentions, expectation and remembering. (We do more than that but I am keeping it simple right now)

A person is more than just his/her inner beliefs, values, rules, agreements, relationships, identity, intentions, expectation, remembering. But still, the amount of energy that that person invests in his/her beliefs, values, rules, agreements, relationships, identity, intentions, expectation and remembering, carry the potential to shape his/her world.

“Your life GROWS where you INVEST.”

 

So where are you investing right now?

Tell me more about your investment? Describe it to me? Help me understand so that I better hold space for you.

Show me how you do that investment?

If I were to get into the theatre of your mind – what will I see, feel and hear?

Is that investment supporting your growth? How do you know this investment is supporting your growth? What evidence do you have?

 

Are you confused? Did I confuse you?

 

Then let’s simplify things. Tell me about your self-talks.

What stories do you tell yourself? When you are with you in those moments in time, what words do use to talk to yourself? What do believe about yourself? What do you believe about this world? What do you believe about life?

Define growth for me. What do you believe about growth? What do you value about growth?

Are your self-talks adding value to your life/growth?

Are your beliefs supporting you to grow?

What pieces of evidence do you have as you answer each of these questions?

 

If that which you are doing right now is not supporting your growth, what are you deciding about it? What are you choosing to do? Remember it is all about you. You are the one Constant of Your Past, Your Present and Your Future.

Do you want to keep doing the same?

Fair enough, then remember

“Your life GROWS where you INVEST.”

 

Your present will be become your Past.

You hold the POWER to be

your “KIND OF STUFF” stepping into that future.

 

Someone who steps into a coaching relationship does so with a specific objective geared towards a future. Keeping limited beliefs, unhealthy habits, unresourcefulness drain the energy and life out of your life. Most of the time, we go through life with much unawareness but as you grow into a little of your own awareness, it is becomes almost sinful to shut off to this life living within you.

 

Choices and decisions scare us for we hold no clue to a future future. There’s one undeniable truth, as you invest in opening up to what resonates to you, your life deepens and lightens, things that no longer serve you start living your space. Yes, you lose relationships, things, materials, places and spaces. But you lose all that no longer serves you.

 

Your Past, Your Present and Your future is of one constant and that one constant is YOU.

 

YOU are that VERY STUFF that will make up YOUR FUTURE.
