I love Christmas

13th December 2012

I love Christmas, it is one of my favourite times of year. It gives a real chance to relax and unwind, spend some quality time with the family, and to indulge in some delicious food and drink. It also provides a chance to reflect on the year that has just past, and of course look forward to the coming year. Consider what worked and what didn’t work in 2012, and then concentrate next year on more of the successful strategies, and avoid the areas where we made mistakes.

Certainly 2012 has been the toughest year I can remember, and most of my clients have found it so. However, they have all managed to work their way through it, and if anything are going forward far more positively now.

The coaching I have been doing has therefore not only been covering the practical and technical aspects, but a fair bit has been concentrating on keeping my clients positive, and looking at a certain amount of self development.

As we all should know, self belief, or lack of it, is hugely limiting, and in tough times, it is easy to find yourself wallowing in self-pity, wondering what went wrong, and why it has happened to you. So having someone to talk to, ask advice of, but, most importantly, not let you dwell on the negatives, is every bit as valuable as some of the tools in business, which are the obvious things which people should know about, understand and use.

So if you have found yourself feeling lonely and on your own, unsure of what to do next, and how on earth you will survive another year of turmoil, get yourself a coach. Someone to give you some tough love, someone who you can rely on and turn to, and someone to be a friendly ear when all around seems lost. Perhaps a coach with a big smile, someone like me! Happy Christmas
