We can because we believe we can
Countdown to the Festive Season…
As we approach the festive season I remember that I promised in my last blog a little history about me and my life to date so here it goes…..
Growing up was non-conventional and certainly an experience, moving from 47 degrees to minus 20 was a memorable occasion but a realisation at a tender age of 5 that the world was a huge place! My father was in the Oil Industry and oil rigs combined with many different places in the world became a way of life; we of course followed him, although not onto the rigs!!
Moving from Oman being looked after by a nanny and fed curry every night to a remote croft in Scotland was indeed a change! So from an early age I guess you could say that I was used to adapting myself to any situation so it still amazes me that despite my desire for variety I spent the first 9 years of my working life in a bank!
However I decided that after 9 years working in a bank – although focused on coaching and mentoring as part of my job, was restricted by rules and regulations and never allowed to be totally ‘me’.
So deciding to set out on my own in June 2009 I certainly gave myself a stretching goal!!! But as a coach I believe in doing what I encourage others to do – so the beginning of my journey began…….
Wow what a change! – from a strict routine of, up at 5, gym by half past and at my desk by 7 , to freedom, time, space and the ability to really focus on what I wanted to achieve. The feeling of being in control of ones own destiny and begining to develop and live those dreams is truly magical…
So I have shared a little about me, my journey so far and how much I am looking forward to building and generating a truly great coaching practise – one that adapts to people’s individual needs, requests and helps people achieve those life changing dreams and goals.
Next week I would love to share some stories of great inspirational friends I have met – one in particular who is about to embark on a sailing trip across the Atlantic – when a year ago she could not keep a rubber duck afloat in her bath!
So until next week – wrap up warm – appreciate the wonderful autumn colours and remember that;
Our truest life is when we are in dreams awake.
Henry David Thoreau
