Welcome to 2008 and welcome to my new blog ;-)
This is my first foray into the world of blogging so please bear with me while I get to grips with it all!
So why blog? And why now? Well this is my way of seeing through one of my New Year's intentions, and fulfilling one of my personal commitments......that is, to help more people become Happier, Healthier and more Fulfilled by sharing ideas, thoughts, insights and resources that can be used to make a really positive difference in peoples' lives ;-)
At this time of year many of us are consciously thinking about what we want to achieve, and how we want to live over the coming months. Some of us may be making great progress and some might already have gone adrift. Infact, the newspapers and TV are currently full of reports about how many people give up on their resolutions, and are offering tips for staying on track.
So how are you getting on? And what helpful tips do you have for the rest of us?
This blog is evidence that I've achieved one of my resolutions..........the next part is keeping it going ;-) That's where a little help, and maybe the occasional reminder or prompt, might be useful. Infact, research does show that group support can make all the difference. There's something really nice about being encouraged and spurred on by your friends, and something very motivating about knowing you've made a commitment and that other people are waiting to hear how you're doing ;-) That's what many clients find particularly useful when working with a coach.....it's easy to make excuses to ourselves, it's less easy making excuses to someone else, especially when you've asked them to help you stay on track!
So one simple tip for now....... make a commitment to yourself, write it down together with the reasons why you want it, and share it with someone who will encourage and support you.
Thanks for reading
Til next time
Have fun
