Success Comes From Massive Action

Success Comes From
Massive Action


Most of us would agree that if we want to accomplish anything we must take action.  

I have two questions for you: 
  • Have you ever wondered why you aren't taking action? 
  • Have you ever wondered why you can't stop the action you don't want?
Here is the answer to both questions - It's because of the way you feel.  

Your feelings drive your actions. Your actions are always going to create the results you want in your life or you don't want in your life.  Your actions create your results. 

What causes your feelings?   Our thoughts. Period.  

Now we forget this, we don't remember that everything we think is within our control.  We think that our thoughts are not within our control, and in fact most of us don't even know what we are thinking.  We are responding to our thoughts that we aren't even aware of. 

Why does this matter?  It really, really matters because our thoughts are what create our feelings.  And everything you do in your life is because you want to feel a certain way.  If  your feelings are caused by your thoughts and everything you do in your life is in order to feel better, wouldn't it be important to know what you are thinking?  It absolutely would. 

So our thoughts create our feelings,  Our feelings are also important because they drive all of our actions.  They are fuel for our actions.

So when you ask me the question, why am I not taking action? - It's because of the way you feel. 

Or why are you taking action you don't want to be taking?  It's because of the way you feel.

If my thinking is driving everything, if it's creating my feelings, if it's creating my actions, if it's creating my results, then I need to know what I am thinking. And I also nee to know how to change that thinking if I want a different result in my life.  

This is the beginning of mindfulness.  Notice the the thought you are thinking when you feel stressed.  Notice the actions you take when you feel stressed.  Notice your results.  

Do this with compassion and awareness.  Leave out the judgment and self criticism.  

When I work with clients who want to manage their stress and manage their eating, this is where we begin.  

I would love to help you get started creating results and actions you want to take.  In a short mini session we can't notice the thoughts you are thinking which make you feel certain ways, which cause you to act in certain ways and give you the results you have.  We can then explore the other thoughts that are available to you and the feelings those thoughts will generate. 
This is the best pale to begin to create lasting change; To create success in  any area of your life.

"For I have known the thoughts that I am thinking towards you -- an affirmation of Jehovah; thoughts of peace, and not of evil, to give to you posterity and hope." - Jer 29:11

You are so worth it,

The One Thing You Need to Know...

The One Thing You Need to Know...  What is it?  What is the one thing you need to know in order to achieve your goals? If your goal is to lose weight, is the one thing you need to know, a diet , powder or pill? If your goal is to manage your time, is the one thing you need to know, the best planner? If your goal is to exercise, is the one thing you need to know, the best workout? If your goal is to have more self confidence, is the one thing you need to know, the best mantras? Would you believe me if I told you that the one thing you need to know for accomplishing   any goal does not come from outside of you?  It comes from within.  One day, I was hosting a group call with my coaching clients, and I asked the question, "What is the one thing you need to know in order to continue in the wellness steps we have been practicing?" I listened to the answers from the group and then they asked me the one thing I needed to know. My ...

Are You Okay With It Taking Time?

Are You Okay With It Taking Time?  Every change we make, every accomplishment we achieve takes a certain amount of time.   We could even agree that the greatest accomplishments take more time.   But when it comes to losing weight, we want it to be fast.  This messes with our mind, our emotions and our commitment. I want you to think about when you enrolled in college.  You decided on a field of study and a degree you set out to earn and graduate.   Or, you can think about High School.  You set out to graduate.   When you signed up, you expected that it would take a number of days you would need to continue taking action.  You made a plan, followed through and repeated.....Over and over and over.   When you were a sophomore, did you say to yourself, "I haven't graduated yet I think I'll quit?" In the 6th month of your Senior year did you throw up your hands and stop completing the requ...

The New Normal

The New Normal How do we decide what normal eating is? Who decides?  Is it us or is it culture? Is it my thoughts, or society's thoughts? What is the association we are creating with our thoughts about food being part of our life events? Do we really need pizza and beer to make watching football more enjoyable?  Do we need to have sugary treats to celebrate the Holidays? I personally, had to spend time questioning my involvement in spreading this confusion during family gatherings. One of the qualities I wanted to be known for was to be a good cook.  I had to decide what I thought a "good cook" meant to me.  Was it to bake foods that were loaded with mind altering substances? Or, could I decide that preparing food that was actually higher on the nutritional scale is of more value? Hmm, what an interesting question.  What is my new normal? Another question I asked myself is, "How am I going to feel after I eat those mind-altering foods?  W...
