Monday Motivation - I have the power, the determination, and the ability to achieve my biggest goals.
|
Happy Monday Reader! I'm on vacation this week, spending time in a house right on Lake Michigan. My plan for the week was to focus on resting, and thinking about the long term shape of my coaching business. I threw an extra wrench in the works at the end of last week because I also decided to start a 100 day goal! I'm not sure yet if that was genius or foolish--usually I would put something like that off until after my vacation. But starting that process is what inspired today's affirmation: "I have the power, the determination, and the ability to achieve my biggest goals." A while back I purchased this journal on the recommendation of an email newsletter I've been reading for a while now: I've never been good at journaling--I've never stuck with it, and I usually don't find it particularly restorative to do. But the email writer seemed to have the same struggles with journaling I do, and said this is the only thing that has worked. So why not try it, right? It was less than $20 to give it a chance. First I offered it to my husband, but while he seemed interested, he didn't start using it. So I took it back and decided to try it myself! While pondering my goal, I realized the one I had initially settled on was playing too small. So I increased my goal--made it bigger, more audacious. Something that will be more challenging, but definitely still achievable, to accomplish in 100 days. Creating an affirmation to help me stick to this process, to not talk myself out of this audacious goal, was one of my very first "micro goals" on Day 1. And I'm sharing it here with you today, in hopes it will inspire you to set a new, big, audacious goal for the rest of the year. (We're about halfway through, after all! YIKES.) By this time of the year, the vast majority of folks have completely forgotten about New Year's goals or resolutions. Or like me, their idea of what's possible has changed and so has the goal. Halfway through the year is a great time to remind ourselves of our goals. To renew our commitment to them...or to modify them to fit our updated circumstances. I'll keep you posted on how this goal progresses, and my thoughts on the usefulness of this journal! And you can always hit reply to ask about it if I don't mention it for a while. 😉 Keep me accountable! Whether you're recommitting to an existing goal or setting a new one like I am, let's cement our faith in ourselves to achieve them by repeating 21x every day: "I have the power, the determination, and the ability to achieve my biggest goals." ❤️ (P.S. Notice I didn't ever tell you what the goal is?? That's on purpose! There's some research that indicates that telling people your goal makes you less likely to achieve it.) Birthday Mini-Coaching PackageSince I'm still out of town on vacay as you read this, I'm extending my birthday coaching package offer through this week. (Mostly because I am not making time to take it down from the lake! 😂 ) If you've been curious about Time Creation Coaching, or struggling with anything in your business, this is a great option to sample my coaching process without a long or expensive commitment. This mini package includes 4 one-hour coaching sessions you can use throughout the rest of the year. Use them at your pace, when you need them.
Once you purchase your mini coaching package, head to my calendar scheduling page to set up your first session & see how Time Creating Coaching will help you super charge your progress to your goals in 2024!
As always, affirmations work best when you truly believe them. They need to resonate with you and feel achievable. So feel free to modify any I suggest, or develop entirely new ones! Say them as long as you want. I'm sharing a new affirmation each week, but that doesn't mean you have to switch it up each week unless it feels right. You can add new ones as often as you want and have as many as you want. You can say a different affirmation every day, or at different times of the day. You choose! I'd love to hear the impact it has! (But if you decide affirmations are not for you, click here to be removed from this weekly email.) I hope this affirmation sets you up for a kick ass week and I'll see you next Monday for a new one to try! Ready to make time for great things in 2024? I have 1-1 coaching spots available to teach you how to put your limited time, energy, & attention to the work that moves the needle in just 1 hour a week. Hit reply or pick a time on my calendar here to learn more. I always have time for you. ❤️ -- Jen |

Hello Reader, Do you remember learning about "opportunity cost" in school? Opportunity cost is the potential forgone profit from a missed opportunity. In simpler terms, the result of choosing one thing over another. Literally every decision we make comes with opportunity cost, including how we spend our time. I release guilt and negative thoughts around how I spend my time. Instead of feeling guilty or beating yourself up for making a certain choice about how you spent your time yesterday or...

Hello Reader, Our affirmation stays the same this week: I am eager. I am energized. I am open. I am ready. Do you believe in manifesting? That you can think or will something into being? It sounds like total woo-woo BS, right?! I was a complete skeptic until my coach had me try it years ago. It worked in a few unexpected ways then, and now it's happened again! After I wrote last week's email, I received an email asking about my coaching services for a business team. This is not an opportunity...
