Coach Lori Park

We are fully in Spring and the evidence of new growth is everywhere.  A New Season!

Some people go through the house doing their spring cleaning. Others go through the garden and clear out the old to make room for the new growth.

How about you?  Are there old things, habits, or beliefs you need to clear out and let go of?  Have you made room to welcome new dream and desires?

You are the designer of your life. 

Live with Passion.  Live on Purpose!

Every 24 hours begins a new day.

A day to try a new adventures. 

Make plans.  Change plans. 

Change the way you look at things.

Start new friendships.  End unhealthy relationships.

Appreciate things that are going well in your life, and changing the ones that aren't.

Notice and appreciate one new discovery about yourself.

WE ARE CREATING SOMETHING NEW EVERY 24 HOURS.

Remember when things used to be simple?

Just because we're adults now, with responsibilities, doesn't mean we have to be stuck in the challenging part of life.  Actually, it's quite the opposite!  The more challenging life is, the more we need those refreshing breaks of sitting in nature and laughing.

If we don't have some resemblance of balance, then we really aren't any good to anyone!

Make a list of things you enjoy doing.  Make sure it offers a variety of time duration and cost.  Some days you'll be able to take a full day, while other days you might only have 15 - 20 minutes.

It doesn't have to be elaborate, it just needs to be a regular practice of feeding your soul some joy.

This is a powerful tool to teach your children.  Teaching by example is always the best way.

Make life worth living!!

When it comes to YOUR life, how clear is your vision?

Many people have a hard time seeing the forest from the trees.  They allow the outside world and other people's opinions blur their path.

People may be well intending, but they don't see or understand all the different variables in your life, like you do.  So their lack of understanding can point you in the opposite direction of where your internal guidance is trying to steer you.

This is a perfect time to pause, and focus on the things that make you happy, fulfilled, and enriched.

This is a perfect time for new strength, new clarity and renewed hope

A perfect time to Design Your Life on Purpose!

When you look in the mirror, what do you see?

Do you see someone who is not good enough, or a person with lots of faults?  Do you see yourself as a precious soul that's learning and growing?

The way you answer that question has everything to do with how this New Year will unfold for you.

One viewpoint is negative, and the other is positive.  Since whatever you believe will govern what comes into your life, then right now, today, you get to design this year ahead.

Choose Wisely.   Be Bold.   Dream BIG!

What does the word AUTHORITY mean?

"The power or right to give orders, make decisions, and enforce obedience." 

If we are talking about "Your Life", who has the right to make decisions for you?

If we were talking about someone else's life, who has the right to make decisions for them?

This the simplest and most clarifying way to define that we each have the Authority for our own life.  Don't allow others to take the authority away from you.  By the same token, make sure you don't take the authority away from anyone else for their lives.

You can always ask for peoples opinions, but understand, YOU get to make the final decision.

Break free from the bondage of other peoples beliefs and expectations on YOUR LIFE.

We are here to experience and create through our life.  So don't cheat the world.

 Be Authentically YOU!

"Laziness kills Ambition

Anger kills Wisdom

Fear kills Dreams

Ego kills Growth

Jealousy kills Peace

Doubt kills Confidence

 Life is an Adventure, and unfortunately there are too many people sitting on the sidelines.  They are missing out on learning and gaining of information that propels them forward.

Maybe they tried and it didn't work out, so they gave up.  What most people don't realize until later, is they learned something though that experience.  Maybe several things that later became invaluable to their life.

The secret isn't in how many times you get knocked down, but in how many times you get up..

So what's your next adventure?  What makes you come alive and feel inspired?  What are your gifts and talents?

Be adventurous and discover the differences you're making in this world.

Thank you for being YOU!

For Everything, there is a season.

A time for rain, a time to sow.

A time to plant, a time to reap.

I look at Autumn as a very reflective time.  It gets a little cooler out, kids are back at school, and the sun sets earlier.  Which affords us a little more quiet time to assess our life. 

We are also told, we will "Reap what we Sow".  It's a wonderful time for us to notice, "what is our life producing?"

Am I seeing in my life, what I want...or what I don't want?  This is a great question because once you know the answer to that, you can make any necessary adjustments.

If you're seeing a life you want, then keep doing whatever your doing.  If you're not seeing what you want then ask yourself two questions.

1) What do I want?

2) What do I need to do today that will lead me to my desired outcome?

All the answers to your life, is inside of you.  It's important to ask yourself good questions in order to get the best answers.  Once you got the answers, write them down and work towar...
