Positive thinking results in positive experiences. There is a direct connection between my expectations and experiences. I am encouraged to keep my thoughts on good things.

Having positive expectations means knowing that my hard work and effort result in great payoffs.

I maintain a positive view of the people I interact with daily. I let others know that I think highly of them. This approach results in mutual respect and healthy relationships.

Having healthy relationships means experiencing successful collaboration. I let my coworkers know how much faith I have in their abilities. Doing this encourages them to give their best effort, resulting in impressive projects.

Sometimes I feel overwhelmed, but I avoid throwing my hands in the air. I remind myself that I am blessed.

I know that expecting blessings results in them coming in wonderful proportions. I spend my time focusing on the things I can change and allow everything else to unfold as...

One value of working with a Life Coach is the power to get a fresh, informed point of view on challenges that you encounter. In addition to offering new insight into those challenges, a Life Coach helps you find negative patterns standing in the way of your success. Sometimes negative habits can be in words you tell yourself.

The strength of words is impressive, and they describe everything in our life. The words of our inner voice can be the most powerful of all.  When it comes to thinking good about yourself, learning how to use affirmations is helpful. There are so many opportunities to manifest abundance and love.

Affirmations can be potent, and they are also easy to use. Today, I will discuss the importance of gratitude affirmations to increasing your overall life satisfaction.

THE IMPORTANCE OF GRATITUDE AFFIRMATIONS

If you begin to form thoughts and repeat similar things, again and again, you start believing in the ideas. If we can create our...

There is a common misconception that optimistic women are a particular breed and always make the right choices when handling their emotions. But a negative mindset forms when a woman consistently gives in to the negative thoughts that will naturally pop up for all of us.

On the other hand, a positive mindset starts when a woman consciously tries to replace those negative thoughts with positive ones. So, all that it takes is some effort. You need to put negative thoughts to the back of your mind and strive to find the positive in any situation.

Have a Growth Mindset

This is needed to end everything that ever holds you back from bettering your life. With just your mind, you can affect how your day will go, how you will feel about the circumstances you encounter, and the overall outlook about your future.

The mindsets you hold come naturally, which means most women do not even realize how they conduct themselves. A first step is to recognize the type of...

November is here.

You might be feeling the frantic pace of the holiday season, along with the pressure to finish everything on time. There is a lot to do, from shopping, wrapping, packing, planning, and traveling, to cooking, cleaning, hosting, and attending year-end events. All of this Holiday frenzy can cause a lot of stress.


Phew. Relax and take a deep breath.

Before you jump into the busyness of the holidays … before the stress gets the best of you, take a moment to reflect on God’s promises of peace and pray.

A Prayer for the Stressed

Most gracious heavenly Father, please grant me your peace during this busy season. Help me to focus on you and recognize your grace in my life each day. Replace my stress, worries, and anxiety with gratitude and your peace that surpasses all understanding. Thank you for carrying my burdens and for your constant presence in my life. I ask for all of this in your Son Jesus' name. Amen.

My life is an open path to new experiences on my trips. I embrace new ideas and challenges while I travel.

I remain open to new possibilities in my world.  

My vacation is a wonderful opportunity to experience new adventures. Each day provides exciting new prospects, and I avoid letting fear or anxiety stop my pursuit.

New experiences are always within my reach while I travel, as long as I allow myself to try new things. My choices affect what I experience, so I am careful about my decisions.

I can balance new ideas with my old beliefs during a vacation. I embrace the education from each new concept I find. Different cultures and languages provide valuable lessons about the world around me. I am enriched with this new knowledge.

I appreciate the different lifestyles I encounter while on vacation. I make new friends. I pick up new tips and advice. And I learn from their cultural backgrounds and histories.

My travels help me appreciate...

November is a month of gratitude and I wanted to express my thankfulness for your support. Life coach for Ladies is here because of you and your support and I do not take that lightly.

Give Up Procrastination

When tasks feel overwhelming or provoke anxiety, they are often avoided. Women put off tasks because they do not believe they will enjoy them and want to avoid making themselves unhappy, or fear they will not do the tasks well.

Definition from Oxford Languages https://languages.oup.com/google-dictionary-en/

Procrastination is a barrier to self-improvement.

You will start the diet tomorrow. You will set boundaries after this next family vacation. You will change your negative habits when you have more money, time, or a better life situation. Procrastination becomes your habit.

When you realize how it happens you can replace it with a better habit. This is the key understanding to help us overcome...

The weight of challenges lifts off my shoulders when I seek spiritual guidance.

I can take all my hardships and challenging times in stride because I rely on spiritual guidance to keep me strong.

Some of my most challenging experiences serve as life lessons instead of hindrances because I accept wisdom from a higher place.

When I feel weighed down by emotional gloom, I pull myself out of it with the assistance that comes through my faith. I know that I receive happiness and peace, so I lean on that belief to propel me to a better emotional place.

I view family challenges as blessings because they teach me to embrace my loved ones regardless of the circumstances. I pray for spiritual calmness to see the path I need to take to resolve the issue.

The weight of challenges grows continuously lighter as I rely more and more on the spiritual path that guides me. I know I support a more extraordinary being, and I lean on that support when it feels like I...

 A genuinely decent or ‘nice’ woman is always a blessing to those they come in contact with throughout their days. It is an admirable quality that anyone would wish to have more contact with, especially to offset the spite and hate that can sometimes seem predominant.

Terrible news happens every day. And it is also extensively broadcast. People have never been more divided by what they believe and prove themselves correct, sometimes reaching a point of violence.

The world could make use of some altruism and genuine kindness today. The glaring truth is that we would live better if more good-hearted women were around in our midst.

But when you are a good and decent woman who is nice to the point of enabling others, it can often cause more detriment than benefit.

This occurs in two ways:

• there are always people who will take advantage of a woman’s good nature, or
• if these ‘nice’ behaviors manifest for the wrong reasons, it can be...

Take Healthy Risks

It is human nature to reach your comfort zone and remain there. This can take place in all parts of your life. You can get to a certain point with your finances, health, relationships, and weight, and you remain for the long haul since change is risky. But sometimes, you need to accept change for growth.

Growth means you may have stretch. It would be best if you reached outside your comfort zone. Usually, when women sense a challenge to step away from what is known and leave it behind, they start to retreat.

Women all have perspectives on what is attainable and what is out of their reach in our personal and professional lives. But, taking risks and making mistakes are essential learning experiences. And healthy risk-taking can build confidence!

You might list dozens of ways why it is better to stick with what you know than dive into that unknown. You may want to go back to school or start your own business, and you have...
