PLAYING FULL OUT!
Happy
New Year! Are you ready to have your dreams come true?
Is there one dream you would like to manifest this year?
Is there
one thing you are willing to commit a 100% of your energy,
time and heart to having happen?
Here’s
the good news – you can create your life exactly
as you want it, one step at a time, if you are willing
to commit 100% to your dream. In coaching speak, it’s
called Playing Full Out.
Even people
like Katie Holmes (Mrs. Tom Cruise) who have a fabulous
career and marriage, had to work hard to get where they
are. When she told her parents she wanted to move to
LA and become an actress, they told her okay but to
give it her all. In other words go for it 100%. It worked
for her career, and I can only imagine that’s
part of what won Tom Cruise’s heart.
That was
intention, determination and pure commitment on Katie’s
part and look at the results.
You
can have similar results if you are willing to get clear
on what you really want, if you are willing to commit
to it 100% and if you are willing to both work for it
and allow it.
There are
two parts required for manifestation – one is
energetic and the other is physical, the actual work.
The
reason I keep stressing 100% commitment is because anything
less than that will be read by the Universe as weak
energy, and weak energy can’t attract to you what
you want. Also, you won’t give it your
all, which is what it takes. Then you won’t succeed
in realizing your dreams. You’ll end up feeling
badly about yourself and your life. So if you won’t
give it your all, then choose something else, or put
it on the back burner until you will.
Perfect
Example of Playing Full Out
David
Wagner played sports all through high school and into
college, until he was paralyzed from the waist down
in a freak accident in 1995 at the age of 20. He would
never walk again.
After
a long hard period of rehabilitation he finished his
college degree.
Then
searching for something he could do athletically, in
1999 he found something he loved - wheelchair tennis.
In
2004, at the Paralympics in Athens Greece he won the
Olympic GOLD for Quad Doubles wheelchair tennis and
the SILVER for singles Quad Wheelchair tennis.
Commitment,
determination, hard work, overcoming overwhelming physical
and emotional obstacles, and having fun - David Wagner
is one of my heroes.
What
You Need to Do to Achieve Your Dreams
Most of us
don’t have the kind of obstacles that David had
and will continue to have the rest of his life. So the
obstacles we face are in our mind, which can be overcome.
Suppose you
decide you want to get into great shape and get healthy
this year. Then hire a trainer and a nutritionist, go
to the gym, do the exercises and follow the plans the
experts give you. If you’re not going to follow
everything then don’t set yourself up to fail.
Just accept that you’re comfortable with where
you are. It’s perfect, it’s all just what
you choose to commit to and focus your energy on.
My clients
who have successful careers have devoted lots of time,
training, energy and determination to succeeding. And
they get the results.
The
same is true for my clients who’ve wanted to be
in a loving, joyful relationship – many of them
are now either married, engaged or are living with a
fabulous person.
They
were committed and determined to feel good about themselves
and from that place they attracted fabulous partners.
I’m not going to kid you, they worked hard, they
read books, coached week in and week out on their issues;
they were willing to tell themselves the truth and willing
to do the work to silence their critical inner voice.
They were willing to stop playing games and
stop playing with only half a heart. They were willing
to commit to themselves – to realizing how amazing
they are.
Now
what if you want to have a great relationship - either
a new one or you want to improve the one you’re
in - you can do it. But do it from a place of honesty
and courage. Don’t do it half-heartedly so you
can tell yourself, if it doesn’t work out, well,
it wasn’t really your fault. Don’t cop out
on yourself like that. You’re setting yourself
up to fail by not committing. Remember the Universe
reads the energy you send out, so make it strong.
One of the
main reasons you don’t have what you say you want
is because your commitment is to what you don’t
want, not to what you say you do want.
I’ll
go into that more in the next ezine. In the meantime,
decide what you really want in your life this year.
Choose one thing and decide if you are willing to give
it your all.
Then
look at hiring a coach, taking a workshop, reading relevant
books, surrounding yourself with positive people who
already have what you’re longing for in your life.
Daydream
each day for 15 minutes, concentrate and commit to having
your dream come true. It will.
Choose to
believe. Choose to commit 100%. Choose to let the Universe
respond.
Imagine the
possibilities…

As a certified coach, I’m a huge advocate for
hiring a certified coach. Most of the great programs
require a two-year commitment, which includes classes,
labs, supervisions and a grueling certification exam.
I also have
a degree in Sociology and a minor in Psychology. Many
coaches have educational and professional backgrounds
that enhance their coaching skills.
You want
to hire someone who understands what they’re doing
and knows when coaching is appropriate for you and when
it isn’t.
I attended
Coaches Training Institute and on their website you
can search for a coach based on your interests and requirements.
Try it and
see for yourself the great benefits of coaching to help
you achieve your dreams.

I teach people
to overcome the obstacles that keep them stuck yet longing
for romantic relationships, more self-confidence and
inspiration to accomplish their dreams.
We sometimes
forget what it feels like to live from our hearts and
souls. We forget the thrill of taking the brakes off
and flying. Life is dull if we just live from our minds.
Are you -
or someone you know - settling, for less than exciting,
either in relationships or a career?
