This post will be a bit vague until I am able to talk more openly about it but hopefully the principles will still come across and be helpful.

So this last week I had another coaching session. During it, we talked about thought transformation. I was realizing a deep held limiting and false belief and so she had me turn it around. I turned it around and then listed out ways that the new belief was truth. Another thing that we looked at that I’ve used with my own clients is if you were to put yourself as if you were talking to a friend who had had this limiting and false belief and was wanting to turn it around into a truth, what would you say to them as an outside perspective? I was able to list the different things that I would say.

One of the things that I want to focus more on is some of the things that came to me as part of the conversation. I talked about how there is an ebb and flow to life and that I am not in charge of the way someone does or doesn’t respond to a situation, their reactions. It really helped looking at this situation in a different light because it has been something that I have really been worried about, I’ve had stress and anxiety over it as well. I was able to come to the place of I don’t need to stress about this, it’s going to be okay.

Another thing we discussed was having changed the way I looked at this certain situation and if things changed in my life, in my family’s life, what would your life be like in 10 years? As I thought about that and mainly the pros of having life change in a different direction, it would be so much better for me and my little family.

Another thing that we discussed is Who knows what God’s plan is…sometimes change is hard even if it is the best thing. And even when it may impact or affect others, our Father in Heaven knows what is best for all of His children even if it is not known right away.

I hope all of you who may read this that any upcoming changes and decisions that you may have come up (life is always changing), that we can all do our Father’s will and that the decisions that need to be made will be what is in your best interest.
