A last red leaf dangles from a branch on the barren sapling. A gust of wind tugs at it; the little leaf clamps on, swaying dangerously. She holds onto her last sinking memory with waning energy. Full of hope she wrinkles up; not a simmer of disappointment in her vanishing veins! She pulls out of herself. And then irrevocably – snap – almost casual, her paper body disconnects and floats to the earth gracefully to drily rest among her sisters' remains. She swoops free, released, and returns to the source of everything. A gardener gently sweeps up the crumpled red leaves. Shuffling, he crosses the courtyard and drapes them around a green tree that seems to glow. |

"You're already there" Do you sometimes think you need to change something in yourself before you can be happy? This post explains why that very thought is stopping you. "What's life coaching all about?" We wanted to give you an insight into some common misconceptions about coaching, and also give you some examples of powerful coaching in action. "Learning to appreciate technology" This hilarious comedian, Louis CK, explains why we should be more grateful for technology like mobile phones and planes. |

Finding goals One way to clarify your goals is to make a list. It aligns your thoughts and makes things official. The limitation of lists is that they only speak of things you consciously want to move towards or away from - positive change. Things that don't stress you out to write down. Fun stuff. While our most interesting sides are those we don't want to see. The most dramatic changes are those in areas that previously were invisible to us. The energy that frees up is like uncorking, letting your energy stream free. Only, how can you reach those shadow sides of yourself if you don't want to see them? A coach can guide you there, by asking the right questions, giving feedback and assignments. To coach yourself there, you can look what surrounds you. Look at your habits. How would someone that knew the ins and outs of your lifestyle, judge them? Be honest with yourself! Note down how much you do of what (eating and drinking habits, not sleeping enough, treating people a certain way...). Are you doing what you would like to do or even think you're doing when it comes to relationships, health, work, spare time...? Note down any discrepancies. What do these differences say about you? What could change to realise your desired state? What could you do, think, feel? Those are goals! |
