It's A Cinch!

Happy March! We are heading toward the end of the first quarter of 2012 - as hard as that is to believe. How are you doing so far? Are you where you want to be? If you could change ONE thing to get you on track what would it be? I would be honored to coach you to do just that ONE thing - it could make all the difference. Read on for a little encouragement.

Spring is all about clearing out, lightening up, knocking down the cobwebs, and bustin' open! Is it physical clutter? Your car? A room? A closet? The refrigerator? Maybe it's emotional clutter - old hurts, a loss, relationships out of order. What about spiritual clutter? Are you confused? Out of touch with God and yourself? Wondering what it is you are actually doing here? Unclear about where you are going or what you really want?

Are there some things you began this year, then lost steam? Is there a change you wanted to make? Where have you focused your time and attention? Whatever has your attention has you! Are you wanting to lose some weight, but the number of pounds seems daunting? Do you want to exercise more regularly but the days just seem to fly by? Health and fitness don't happen after one grueling workout. You just wind up tired and achy the next day. Have you heard the ditty, "Inch by inch, it's a cinch!"? Corny, but true. Discipline coupled with desire, then doing the NEXT right thing - one step and one inch at a time - are what get the job done!

This is true in all areas of our lives. Very often, the hardest step is the first one. It's easy to procrastinate, to get busy with other things, to convince ourselves it's not THAT important. We may tell ourselves that we don't really want it, or worse, that it's not worth wanting. Pay attention to the things that continue to come up for you. Those recurring thoughts and dreams are telling you something.


If you have been thinking about it, reading about it, or talking about it, commit TODAY to ACT on it. Do something - anything - that moves you in the direction of your intention. Spend 15 minutes reengaging with that unfinished project. Make a written plan to accomplish that change, and include victory dates for each step. Then, simply BEGIN, take a stab, make a start, give it a go. Getting on down the road starts with the first step. GO girlfriends!

Make a light,bright new beginning!
