Editor's Notes
Name;
Business;
Counselling, mentoring, facilitation, harassment advisor, supervision, training
Goal setting – Helping you set and achieve realistic and exciting goals that will change your life for the better. Really important. Recognising area not happy/fulfilled & deciding to do something about it.
You are the expert in your own life; if retired – really enjoy retirement
Negative thoughts, lack of confidence
GROW – Acronym
G – being clear abt what you want
R – What have you done?
O – Expanding – beyond what thought so far
W – Action plan
One of things holding us back – limiting values and Beliefs.
Values & beliefs are important – if we know and understand where they came from and that they serve us well.
Trouble is – we grow up with beliefs about ourselves which hold us back.
‘I’ll never be any good at…
‘I’m not going to enjoy this’
Limiting beliefs often start with:
‘You mustn’t, you shouldn’t, ‘you are too…’ ‘you are not…’
Eg – sewing teacher – announcing to my parents I wd never be any good at needlework.
I never have.
Not problem to me – but if I wanted to be a fashion designer it would.
The mind doesn’t hear the word ‘Don’t’
Expand focus
Not just the obvious
Best friend – if job related, other people can see the obvious; put yourself in their shoes looking in
Sometimes we limit ourselves before we start
Think outside the box. Can narrow it down later.
Personal illustration – ‘I am dippy’ becomes ‘I am Smart, Witty and Popular (SWAP)
Syzygy Group Exercise with Guided Meditation
Group exercise on turning around negative thoughts.
