Today’s blog is all about seizing the day – something I am passionate about. The one thing I really enjoy about living in England is how everyone makes the most of the good weather (which is hopefully going to return this week-end).
I thought my Jack Russells were the perfect subjects for this blog, as I never get bored watching their attitude to life. I believe we can learn a lot from our feisty four legged friends.
Their approach to life is one of constant curiosity for EVERYTHING, they have never ending passion and energy, boldness and bravery – they will never accept defeat or believe anything is bigger than them. They approach every day with the same intensity as if it had never been seen before and was never going to be here again. They are loyal to the dying day and love like there is nothing to lose. In a nutshell nothing gets them down – ever!
I believe we can all do with a little bit of JR attitude. The first thing is to wake up and say ‘thank you’ for your day – it is a gift and you never know when it will be your last. The second thing is to be mindful of your attitude throughout the day and notice when you are slipping into negativity or feeling defeated. Life Coaching is all about creating change which is in two parts, the first being awareness of what you want to change and the second is conscious discipline and action to change what you don’t like about yourself.
