Good day! Are you asking yourself any of these questions on a regular basis? How do I change my life? How do I move from where I am to where I want to be? How do I get more of what I want? How can I be happy? How can I improve my health? How do I earn more money? How can I have more freedom? These questions can make you feel sick to the stomach, exhausted, depressed, stressed, fearful, and sometimes angry. Is this how you are feeling? It becomes a constant flow of negative thoughts and affects everything in your life. Often we will find external reasons why we feel like we do, like the economy, Covid, our partner, our boss etc. This takes the responsibility away from ourselves and therefore it’s highly unlikely anything will change. If you want to change you have to take on the responsibility and control the process of change. You need to find a way to change your mindset to a positive one. Almost everyone has or is going through some of these negative thoughts, including myself. Through my studies I have the tools to firstly recognize when I’m going into a negative spiral and then how to get myself out of it, quickly, before it becomes embedded in my life. If you find yourself in this state of life and want help to change it, please contact me let’s chat and discuss how I can help you realign your thoughts and achieve the success you deserve.

Good day everyone! Wow it’s already April, are you still on track to reach your goals? After a holiday or long weekend like we just had it’s often quite a challenge to get the motivation back and get back into the rhythm of your plan. Now there’s nothing wrong with having a break, a few days to kick back and relax. If you had factored this into your plan there would be very little post holiday stress because you would still be on track to meet your goals. So again it’s really important to take into account as many factors as possible that could influence your plan. It’s very motivating to stay be up to date with your plan, been motivated to achieve your goals is a fantastic state of mind to be in and goes a long way to getting you over the finish line. If you find yourself been demotivated, struggling to find the time to do what you need to or want to, beaten yourself up because you not accomplishing what you should, don’t be afraid to reach out for help. A coach will be able to help you to get back on track, maybe formulate a plan B. A coach will find ways to get you motivated again and achieve your goals. Have an amazing week.

“Achieving my goals is simply setting out a plan and following it…. “ Good day all! Formulating a plan is the foundation to achieving your goals. However have you considered the potential obstacles you will encounter and how you will overcome them? As an example, did you factor the Easter weekend into your plans you set earlier in the year, how did it affect your time management, are you behind on your plan? Encountering challenges or road blocks can often completely derail your plan and destroy your motivation. As a Life Coach I am trained to “take the blinkers off” and provide a 3rd party perspective. I will challenge you on your plan and explore with you the potential challenges you will face and I will assist you in formulating a plan B. By doing this should a particular road block occur it won’t stop your progress in achieving your end goal, you will remain motivated and confident of achieving that goal. Have an awesome, productive week, take care.

Some great feedback from a client “When I first reached out to Graham I was feeling stuck in both my personal and professional life, unsure of how to move forward and achieve my goals. From our very first session, Graham impressed me with his empathy, insight, and expertise. He took the time to truly understand my challenges, aspirations, and values, creating a safe and supportive space for me to explore my thoughts and feelings. I learnt a lot about myself, I learnt about things that might stop me in my journey and how to tackle them. I Learned how to set goals, time management and most of all to be confident in myself. I am deeply grateful for his guidance, support, and unwavering belief in my potential”.

"The journey of a thousand miles begins with one step."- Lao Tzu This quote is very true, but then the journey continues with another step and another. To get to the end of the journey and achieve your goal you have to keep taking those steps, over all the obstacles and challenges you will face. How will you, and who will help you keep motivated and keep focused on the goal? A Coach isn’t there to tell you what to do but to provide advice, guidance, and often to be the discipline you need. A Coach will help you set out a clear and defined plan to get you to your final goal, supporting you all the way on your journey. You don’t have to do it own your own.
