Ok, you are ready to do something different, but what?
3 Things Needed for Re-inventing. Maybe you have always known what you want to do, just not sure where to start..maybe you want to start your own business or maybe you are ready to jump in to add some more excitement in your life. Mostly, we have been taking too much space and not really living our lives.
After a long marriage you want to venture onto something else or leave your job prospects open..my friend Lisa, I had asked her what she was doing to get work. She gave me her formula – even though she was married she had the full support of her husband, not every partner is willing to do this. Some partners decide it isn’t worth it to repair or re-commit to their marriage. One of my friends, took a risk, of having her own get away vacations from her husband. Their marriage was getting stale, to save herself she goes to Sedona, AZ where they have a condo for 4 months out of the year. Since she has been doing this, her husband and her have become closer. When we are 60’s it’s the new 40’s. We see so much more and a variety of possibilities that is open to us.
The three things we need to recognize that we need in order to re-invent ourselves:
Resilient – We have to be willing to rebound from any challenges we are faced with. By working with a coach will help you to find new ways to cope and even begin to enjoy your new life or business.
Reliance – We have to be willing to reach out and ask for help – have a circle of people that can help us. It requires us to ask for help.
Renewal – We need to be flexible take the leap of faith, sometimes we don’t feel there is a net below us. We may feel scared because we are venturing off into the unknown or will leave behind what we are used to having. When you get stuck it is important to have someone like a coach that you can reach out for support. As our old structures are no longer valid.
If you have been unemployed for a while, you may begin to do the same things of which you did before you got the last job..it isn’t working this way anymore. We need to revaluate where we want to go, find a new way of expressing or manifesting what we want.
How far do you want to go? Are you willing to think out of the box?
