Like most coach training, we learn techniques and concepts and then practice on each other, which opens the door for a lot of new learning, breakthroughs, and transformative thinking! A major takeaway for me from the weekend was this: It’s time for me to play a bigger game.

I have been stagnating in a few areas of my life and not stepping up to the plate with my true potential. I’ve been playing it safe, going with “good enough,” and making a lot excuses for not going bigger. I dug a comfortable little hidey hole in my complacency and fear. I have allowed certain beliefs and thoughts to hold me back.

The experience of new training and new thinking challenged me in these areas. It was really uncomfortable, and I felt a lot of resistance at first–which means that is precisely where I need to grow. Once I realized that I was playing small, it became more and more evident to me based on some feelings (and actions) I have had lately.

Now I’m completely energized and excited about the next phase of my life game.

So I hereby make this promise: I promise to play bigger. For myself, for my clients, for the world.

How will you show up for a bigger game in your life?

Lately I’ve been dreaming again! A personal revelation opened up the door to many new possibilities in my life and business, and I’m enjoying the dreaming process. And, it seems, once you open the door to new dreaming, much more comes through! Beyond my business, I’m dreaming of opportunities and goals in many other areas of my life!
What are you dreaming about?

He has a point. Some things have stuck with me, though–like quilting, and such. Other things, not so much: my fascination with fountain pens, for example.
I recently came up with a plan that allows me to eat at gourmet restaurants. See, as great as my hubby is, he doesn’t really care for the super-fine dining I’d like to try out. I corralled a couple of girlfriends into being my dining partners, and we are having our first comestible outing next week. I’m delighted, and both my friends seem excited, too! Suddenly, I’m dreaming up big plans! Monthly visits to fine restaurants, all of us taking a cooking class together, even perhaps a gastronomic weekend tour of somewhere awesome. I have no idea what will become of our group, honestly. Even just one really great dinner together is worthwhile.
I’m enjoying the dreaming phase of this project formation. It’s a great time–infinite possibilities, no roadblocks yet. Maybe this is what I crave when I switch from project to project.
How do you dream? How do you approach your projects?
