Hello 2016!!!! A new year brings new beginnings, new hopes, new dreams and new goals! There is something so energizing and refreshing about a new year. All the hustle and bustle of the Holidays and parties are behind us. Now you have the opportunity to unselfishly focus on YOURSELF and what will bring you joy for the year to come.
I had the best experience today…. I was invited to give Life Reimagined® at try. It is a program that allows you to experience a personal life coach session in the comfort of your own home. It is free to get started too…all you need to do is visit the Life Reimagined website and take the easy “My Canvas” questionnaire. Here you will answer a few questions to get a feel for your passions and strengths…
After you answer a small series of questions you will end up with what they call as your “purpose statement”. This statement maps out what is truly important to you in your life and your goals. Here is a sample of my complete statement below.
Next was the fun part… I was gifted a 1 hour session so I can map out my 2016 and put a few things I am struggling with through the ears for an expert. I am hoping to get guidance by putting them into perspective and set goals. In order to do this I needed to go “shopping”. Shopping for a life coach is great because they all have special areas of expertise…. whether you need help with work-life balance, healthy lifestyle, job transitioning or EVEN, for my blogger friends, a media specialist!!!
I had selected Elaine Chaney, I loved all her areas of expertise as they seemed very well rounded and would hit all my areas that I wanted to touch upon. Selecting my appointment was beyond easy and I was even able to make a next day appointment.
I do recommend you follow the emails directions on getting your computer “prepped” for your session prior to your scheduled time. I procrastinated on this step and it took me a little longer getting the video conference program installed than I thought it would. This caused me to miss the first 10 min of my appointment.
Other than that, my session when off without a hitch. She asked a few questions to get to know me a bit better, then asked me about my goals. We have had a difficult year with my husband’s job and it is just starting to level out now for the better and I was wondering: now what? I had a few financial questions and a lot of should we do this or that or maybe this….. I was very indecisive on which direction we should be heading. She walked me through my thoughts and had great points.
By the end of our conversation, I filled out a form called my Playbook this put our whole session into motion and gave me accountability. It will also give me a reference for progress. I filled out 5 scale questions about my current concerns/goals that will allow be to track growth. There were also 3 “baby step” goal that will help me reach the big picture with action and timelines. The steps I chose were: to gather information about mortgages and property with a 2 month timeline, to focus on a healthy lifestyle by going to the gym during my “dead hour”, this will help me feel more productive…… starting TOMORROW! 🙂 Finally, I will continue to live by my motto: “Embrace the Day”. No matter how hectic and crazy your life may be, always find a way to embrace the joy in every day!!! In addition to your one on one video session, you’ll have access to online tools and resources that will help you define your personal mission statement and create a personalized action plan.
I walked away from this session with a very realistic agenda. I am looking forward to putting things into perspective and setting small attainable goals for the year to come. I can’t tell you how positive this was. I am so looking forward to my 30 min follow up session in a month to see how my progress is coming along.
Check out these affordable plans, a personal Life Coach is more attainable than you may think. Get 2016 off to a great start and get on track to make this year a great one and set those goals in motion!
