Redefining Success One Moment at a Time

Posted on May 5, 2010 | Leave a comment

What’s your marker of success?  How will you know when you are successful?  Will you have 40 million in investments, a second home in Florida or Tuscany, CEO of your own Multi million dollar company or happily married or retired from a job you dread?

What if you could be happy now?

 I now choose to measure my success by the sense of peace and joy I feel each day, in the moment.  Yes in this very moment.  For this moment is the only moment we are guaranteed.  Time spent fretting about past events or worrying about future events only keeps us from enjoying and being present in this moment.

 Take a deep breath and notice how you feel in this moment, tension in your body, anger sadness, fear or joy or a sense of peace.  By the way are you breathing or holding your breath?  We only exist in this moment – no longer are we in the past and the future has not yet happened.

 I choose to be fully alive and thoroughly embrace this moment.  Yes I would choose to have millions in the bank or be happily married or spending the afternoon at a villa in Tuscany.  Yet we know that neither money nor a relationship is a guarantee of happiness. 

 Last weekend in Santa Barbara, I gathered with Kathlyn Hendricks and several of my Hendricks buddies – other Hendricks coaches from the Hendricks Institute to play and learn in an Advanced Leadership Training Program.  The experience left me feeling expansive and joyful. 

 Learning to be present in the moment sounds so simple yet for most of us it is quite difficult.  In the moment I may feel angry or sad or scared yet, being in the moment allows those feeling to pass through me and to return to a sense of peace and joy. Mastering these skills is an advanced move.  As a coach I am ready to assist those who are ready to learn these and other tools to transform your life and allow you to love the life you are living now!

 Until next time,

 Amy Barnes,  Life Coach for Body, Mind, Spirit and Relationships.

The Value of Persistence

Posted on January 4, 2010 | Leave a comment

So you’ve made those New Year’s Resolutions so what now?

Are you going to be like the vast majority of people who either don’t make resolutions or give up on them before January is even over?
On a December trip to Santa Barbara I had the privilege of meeting with Gay Hendricks who brought along his friend, Bob Proctor, who he had just picked up at the airport. Bob Proctor is known for his work in motivation. I can see why.
Bob Proctor talked of growing up being a fan of Napoleon Hill. Napoleon Hill spent his life researching what makes a successful person a success. Proctor reads the chapter on Persistence each day for 30 days at least once each year. He brought with him his original copy of  Think and Grow Rich that he carries with him always. He was also a featured presenter on The Secret.

One percent of the population earns 96 percent of the money. Bob Proctor states that you could be part of this  one percent.  He asks if you are willing to do what it takes regardless of what is happening in the outside world. He asks if you are willing to be in control of your own destiny instead of letting others outside of you control you destiny.

Persistence is not necessarily an easy habit for many of us. Yet the universe is willing to be incredibly helpful if we just put forth a little effort. It’s amazing what making one small commitment to yourself and keeping it can do for both your self esteem and your motivation.

I recommend starting with something small. Working out five days a week in the gym for an hour each day could be a bit much if you have not worked out in years. Starting with a minimum of five minutes two days a week is doable. Deciding to make fifty sales calls a day may again be overwhelming but deciding each day to focus on your top three accounts and setting up a meeting with a new prospect may again be manageable and not so overwhelming.

Find something you can agree to do and stick to it. Persistence. It’s one of those major traits that all successful people have in common.  How can you best use persistance to obtain the abundance and success you desire. 

If I can assist you with your level of motivation and persistence or any other coaching issues, please give me a call.

Happy New Year!

Until Next Time,

Amy Barnes, Leadership and Transformation Coach

No Longer Trying To Fit In

Posted on September 30, 2009 | Leave a comment

I’ve spent most of my life trying to fit in.  I’ve always felt out of step.  As a young child I read developmental psychology books to see what developmental stage I should be in and how to act that way.   I’ve felt that if I were really me no one would like me.  This sense that I am not like everyone else has always, until recently been with me.  I loved reading The Ugly Duckling, Cinderella, Rudolph, The Red Nosed Reindeer and even Harry Potter. All those children’s books and many more dealt with not fitting in.  Maybe others feel this same way since this is such a popular theme in children’s literature.

Trying to fit in is exhausting.  I’ve given that up.  It’s time to be me.  It’s time to be me to like myself.  It’s time to be comfortable with who I am.  Kathlyn Hendricks refers to being authentic, to being yourself.  Over time the persona I was playing became too tight.  I lost track of who I was.   Here I am in middle age shedding my personas, searching for the authentic me.  I am inspired by my much wiser children who decided to be themselves and to live their own lives at much younger ages. My youngest said, “Mom you let each of us be ourselves.”  I consider this the highest of compliments.

I’m still exploring and wondering.  Each day brings new discoveries.  Today I sat with employees dealing with the death of a fellow long term employee.  I also sat with a young woman feeling exhausted from not living up to her own self imposed perfectionist standards.  I support people in the opportunity to feel heard and to be empowered.

Perhaps I am so passionate about helping others know themselves and love what they do because I know what that feels like from the inside.   Instead of not fitting in, I encourage them to find value in their own voice and sing their own song.

Until next time,

Learning to Trust your Gut

Posted on September 18, 2009 | Leave a comment

As a coach, one of the hardest things I ask my clients to do is to be in the moment, to notice and observe without judgment the feelings in their body at this very moment. Learning to listen to our bodies gives us the information we need to “trust our gut” instead of relying on information outside of us to make decisions.

Many successful business leaders have learned to trust their gut.  As Donald Trump said, “Leaders are people who can discern the inevitable and act accordingly. When people talk about business acumen, discernment is a big part of it. It’s a bit like gut instinct, but a little more developed.”  Gay Hendricks in his book The Corporate Mystic talks about the importance of leaders learning to trust their gut.

Most of us have been taught to disregard what our bodies tell us. Some of us have even been taught the opposite. That we should never listen to what our bodies tell us but only make decisions based on hard core evidence. Would you like to be more comfortable making decisions? Learning to trust you gut is one of the best tools you have for making reliable decisions.

Just try it for a moment. Start with the more obvious. Do you have a headache? Is you stomach growling because lunch is long overdue? Now, what else are you noticing? Are you holding tension anywhere? Does any part of you feel heavy of constricted or open or expansive? Many of us hold tension in our upper back and neck for instance.

Once we learn to listen to our bodies we can gain all sorts of information. Our bodies receive information even before our brains receive the information. Dr. Jill Bolte Taylor, a neurosurgeon, wrote My Stroke of Insight. In her book, she describes how our bodies actually produce chemical reactions which allow us to feel different emotions such as anger, sadness and fear in different parts of our bodies.
Learning to Trust My Gut

Your next question may be so if I listen to my body what do I do with that information.  Great question.   We’ll talk about that another day.

Until next time,

Amy Barnes, Life Coach

What are your Big Questions?

Posted on August 27, 2009 | Leave a comment

What are the questions you have been grappling with?  More and more I have become interested in big question.    Asking bigger questions allows my focus to shift, my out look to change.  Focusing on what’s for lunch is a very different question than focusing on how can we best allocate the world resources so everyone can have lunch.

So many questions and so few answers.  Can I be at peace without the questions answered and be at peace or even happy or joyful in the moment?  Am I using my time wisely?  How can I be the best me I can be?  What’s the purpose of life? What old beliefs do I want to surrender what new ones do I choose to believe in?

How can I best use my talents and gifts that I have.  What are the talents and gifts that I have that others would find useful?

How can I increase my capacity for joy and abundance?

How can I make this world a better place?

How can I most easefully and joyfully live, work, play and create abundance in my zone of genius and inspire others to do the same?

I love Gay Hendricks questions in his book The Big Leap. http://www.thebigleap.net/  “What is my Genius?  How can I bring forth my genius in ways that serve others and myself at the same time?   What is my unique ability and how do I articulate it?”

For Einstein the big question was  “Did God have a choice when He created the Universe?”

What’s your big question?
