Coaching Moment #191 Comfort Foods

Coaching Moments used to be exclusively for my coaching clients and Champions members. We've now opened them up to share them with you via this blog. Coaching Moments are shared each Friday and meant to encourage you on your path to greater enjoyment and/or success- whatever you happen to be reaching for. They remind us to think about our paths, our decisions and our priorities. Hopefully they make you think about something and refocus. Enjoy.

#191 Comfort Foods

What are your comfort foods? Name them. When do you like to have them? Do they remind you of being a child in your grandmother’s kitchen? Or, do they help you suppress your feelings? Be careful. Make sure your comfort food doesn’t become your vice. “Comfort” can be a gray area fraught with trouble if we don’t evaluate it correctly.

#190 Dare to Dream. Dream to Act.

If you were in charge of a nation, what is the one thing you would change or institute? Think it through – all of the benefits, challenges and implications to other programs. Dare to make a difference. Then, once you have your national model of change (for what ever focus or area) consider how it can be adopted on a smaller scale in your company or in your community. Then, propose it and lead the charge. Sometimes it helps to think big to begin to think and act locally.

#189 Step Aside

Take 2 minutes. Think about something you could do for someone else today that would make them smile. Next, take the 5 or so minutes it will take to do that very thing. Put yourself aside for this time and focus on making someone else’s day. You’ll reap the rewards. I assure you.

Go ahead. I dare you. Anything worth happening or that you want to happen… put it in writing. Read it each morning and each evening. Something magical happens when you do so. It will become reality.
