Problems and Opportunities

A recent quote from Coach Andrea’s Tought for the Day  by  Margaret Mead is so powerful, we’d like to share.

 ”We are continually faced with great opportunities which are brilliantly disguised as unsolvable problems.”  Margaret Mead

Today’s Coaching Exercise

Spend time over these last days of 2007 considering how this quote can help you overcome just 1 or 2 of your current problems/hurdles …   Record your thoughts in your journal.

For those who are celebrating the birth of the baby Jesus,  we hope you had a wonderfully blessed Christmas Day!

Until next time … Take GREAT Care!

Let Your FEAR Lead to Your SUCCESS

Sunday Inspiration #2

Today’s Thought:   Fear (when properly managed) can promote creativity, preparedness and excellence.

This Week’s Coaching Exercise

Get out your journal (if you don’t have a journal- you can order one here) and write down the 3 things that scare you most about making a transition that you know you need to make in 2008.    Your transitions may include things like (i) changing law firms; (ii) positioning yourself for success as a new partner; (iii) transitioning to a government position; (iv) moving in-house; (vi) leaving the legal profession altogether or (vii) moving to a new city for what looks like a fantastic opportunity. 

workflow

List 3 things you can do or systems you can put in place to reduce the chances that what you fear will become a reality.   This exercise supports your discovery of what concrete steps you need to take to get past your fears so that you can achieve accelerated success.

Now … schedule time to put the steps you have identified in action.   Let us know if we can help.  You will find that a structured coaching program can help you achieve greater success … faster!      Until next time … Take GREAT Care!
