2011- Positive Changes (for you)?
2011-POSITIVE CHANGES?
May you LIVE all the days of your life-Johnathan Swift
Another new year. Another year entered into with the best of intentions.
Ever look back and really measure the changes you planned to make in 2010 and where you sit today? For most, their resolutions are but a fading dream about 2 weeks into a new year. My grandmother drilled it into my head- the road to hell is paved with good intentions.
Fact is, if you don’t take massive action, you will likely not make changes in you life, particularly major lifestyle changes. Another fact, few can make changes without help, and the better the help the more likelihood that success will be achieved.
I quit making new years resolutions years ago. Seldom did I do the things I resolved to do even though my intentions were there!
So what is it you plan to change in 2011?
Are you looking to tackle the year with a more positive, upbeat outlook? Is there a habit, addiction or behaviour you intend to modify dramatically? Is there a dream you’ve harboured for a long time that you intend to make a reality?
Unless you are prepared to take massive action and get the help you need and deserve, nothing in 2011 will change dramatically from 2010.
For me, 1995 was a year during which I made huge positive changes. I gave up a depilating addiction, shook frequent depression, rebuilt the most important relationship in my life, had a spiritual awakening and began to enjoy each day as it came along. Major change brought about by taking massive action and getting the right help for me; people who were experts at success!
How is your head entering into this new year? What changes do you want to make? Have you got the life you want? You do have choices.
I’ve been through it and procrastinated for many years. I lost more than I wanted to lose, but lost what I had to lose for me to take action. While I was fearful of radical change because I didn’t know what I would find, I am eternally grateful that I harnessed the courage within to do what had to be finally done.
I coach people to success for a living. That being said, my passion is to see others succeed. Over the next couple of weeks I would like to be a part of helping others to find the key to actually taking action to make positive changes in 2011. While I am always looking for the “right” clients, as a service, I love to chat with others to try and help them find the courage to take the path THEY need, and there are many options available.
If I can be of help in getting YOU to realize your dreams for 2011, please feel free- and it is free- to contact me through khbray@hopeserenity.ca or through www.hopeserenity.ca. I’m here to serve.
As a start point to hitting you resolutions for 2011, why not share them here along with the action you are planning to take and what date you will do this by? Let’s make 2011 a year where you find serenity in your own skin and a you that YOU love!
Let’s not enter 2012 saying I should of or I wish I had of!!!!

बेत्वीन यौर EARS
Between The Ears
“Life is a game played on a 5 inch course, the distance between your ears”
As well move into a new year, the above statement is worth remembering, only because it is true. It is adapted from a quote Bobby Jones made about golf.
I am often struck by the similarities between golf and life, and how many lessons learned through gold apply to life today.
So what is 2011 going to be for you?
To do the same thing repeatedly expecting a different outcome is, to me, the best simple definition I know for insanity.
So if you think yourself sane, and are not completely happy with your self and/or outcomes in 2010, what are you going to change, and even deeper, how are you going to make change happen? As always, just based on your own good intentions? Look at where you’re at and remember the old adage, “the road to hell is paved with good intentions”.
Time you made a big change in the real play area, the space between your ears. Maybe you can connect that space to the space deep inside you, the space generally ignored; the niggling voice inside; that says change is needed.
Want to get into the game of life and love playing it?
Get some help. Set some goals that you really want. Find someone to hear you and act as a sounding board. Make a measurable plan. Be held accountable and be pushed. Take action and make it happen. Get that critical 5 inches turned around.
There are many reasons that individuals may want to change and many things that may impact, amongst them addictions or escape through behaviours. The results are the same including depression, lonliness, not feeling that you fit, discomfort in your own skin, never enough, relationships that are crumbling, under achieving from a financial perspective.
For most, the reason is the same. A bad personal 5 inch space and not being connected to the real you.
There are many solutions available and coaching is but one.
If you can relate to this article and want to improve your life by dealing with the five inch space, then accept that you have issues and take massive action. Whether it be coaching, a self-help group or a psychiatrist or a combination, is you can relate, please take action.
In the game of life as with the game of golf, your outcome is a direct result of what happens in that 5 inch course. (Keith, www.hopeserenity.ca)

अत थे एंड ऑफ़ यौर ARM
AT THE END OF YOUR ARM
The best place to find a helping hand is at the end of your own arm. --Swedish proverb
Every now and again a quote comes to you that is just so obvious but true!
There are so many looking for help, looking to others to “fix” them and take responsibility for them
Getting help does start at the end of your arm; it sure did for me.
We are entering into a period of time which for many of us is supposed to be “Joyous” and fun no matter what your religion. For many this time of the year has a strong religious component.
For far too many, this is a very tough time of the year. It is depressing, particularly when you feel you are not a part of what’s going on, you have a black cloud over your head, or you are not materially in a good place.
Like many others, I believe that we have lost what is really important;” the spirit” of the season.
I marvel each year at this time as people come forward and give to others. Whether it is toys, money, food, clothing or more, many do what they can to insure others can materially enjoy the basics of the season.
What troubles me is that there are far too many that take all they can from the helping hand, and do not look at the end of their own arm. Nothing changes unless something changes and in my case, that something had to be me. Courage is needed to break the negative cycle some get caught up in. To get help, your arm must reach out.
This is a season that is truly spiritual, and in reaching out you may be directed to something inside of you; at your very centre.
I am a long time recovering addict and I do believe in holistic life recovery with a spiritual component (not necessarily religious). I read “recovery” literature and often quote from it. From the book “Keep It Simple”, a Hazelden publication, the following hit home today:
“We do this by finding our spiritual center. This is the place inside of us where our Higher Power lives. We turn our will and our lives over to this spiritual center. We do as our spiritual center tells us. And from our spiritual center, we'll find our values. We'll live better lives. We'll come to trust ourselves again.”
While the “this” talked about refers to self-trust, if you reach out and look, you will find that this “spiritual centre” is the fulcrum for a mentally healthy balanced life.
To my Christian friends may you fully embrace the spiritual base of this holiday, to all others, may the “spirit of the season” touch you as you have some time to relax. If you’re looking for a hand, start at the end of your own arm. You will never know where it leads until you try. (www.hopeserenity.ca)
