resolutions Archives - Lamisha Serf-Walls

The year is flying by and before you know it we will be ringing in the New Year and setting our goals, intentions, and resolutions for the coming year only to find many of those fall by the wayside when our daily lives take over in mid-January. Why not start planning now??

I know there are a lot of people out there wondering what coaching can do for them and have thought about it several times, but for some reason you just haven’t pulled the trigger. You feel the pull to do something different and you know that there is something out there that you were meant to do, but you don’t have the push yet. Maybe you need help identifying your life purpose or need help implementing a plan to make it reality. Either way I can help you. It’s what I do. You don’t have to wait until you are retired to live an exciting, passionate, and enjoyable life. Who wants to wait that long anyway??

You can do that NOW!

But, in order to do so you have to take the first step. Stop with the excuses as to why you can’t do it. I know I have heard them all. There isn’t enough time or money to do it. You have responsibilities, a family, maybe even children to care for. I’ve also heard people tell me they just aren’t sure they can do it or they are simply afraid.

I am telling you that you can. You have permission to live life out loud and absolutely how you want! You CAN have it all. But, it’s not going to come knocking on your door signed, sealed, and wrapped up with a little bow. Nope, you have to take that first step and I would be honored to take that step with you.

Seriously, what are you waiting for? The new year is just around the corner and what better way to ensure you follow through with your dreams, resolutions, and intentions for 2014 than to hire a coach?

Ready to ditch your corporate job and find something that really makes your heart sing?

Do you want to explore the infinite, incredible, life-giving possibilities that will make you jump out of bed in the morning?

Do you have a dream, but you just don’t know how to make it reality? You aren’t sure how to get started and what steps to take? Does it just seem too big and too hard?

I can help.

Hop on over to my new Work With Me page to see the new packages I have set up to help you do just that: Dream It, Do It, and Expand It.

I have to say I can’t believe March is here already. It seems like not too long ago I was thinking, dreaming, and intending my year ahead full of wonder, magic, and awe. Ah how quickly the newness subsides and everyday life takes over. Laundry, work, bills, and life all go on and sometimes our dreams, goals, and resolutions fall quickly to the background. I suppose that is why many resolutions fall by the wayside never to come about again until next year…that is unless you revisit them.

Last Friday it hit me that we are now entering the third month of the year and my excitement for 2013 had dropped dramatically. So much that I wasn’t thinking of my dreams all that often and my passion was waning too. The realization that I was no longer as excited for what is to come as I was in January really got me thinking. How could I let all of that excitement and fire just fizzle out? Where did it go? More importantly, how do I get it back?

I don’t know if there is a set formula to finding your fire again, but this is what I have come up with so far.

Remember your resolutions/dreams/intentions. Revisit the goals you wrote down, the things you told your friends you wanted to do, but most of all FEEL them. Feel the fire, passion, and desire you had when you set them. Revisit your resolutions and make friends with them again.
Know that each month (and each day) is new and you can recreate the newness whenever you want. Maybe at the beginning of each month you want to set a mini celebration for what you accomplished the month before and look forward to what is coming in the next month. Maybe you wan to journal about all the gooey goodness that you had in the month before while setting your intentions for the month ahead. Whatever you do remember every day, week, and month provides a new start.
Bring back the magic. When the clock struck 12, you were likely filled with a sense of wonder and magic for what was waiting for you in the coming year. I can’t tell you how many times I heard or read “2013 is my year” only to find that thought is forgotten a few weeks later. Bring that magical feeling back to life. Read inspirational quotes, stories, and blogs. Find someone you admire and ask them what they do to keep the magic and wonder alive. Embrace positivity and allow it to fill you up each and everyday. Sounds corny, but it works.

I hope the steps above help you to breathe life into your resolutions and goals and you enjoy not only the things you planned for, but also the delicious surprises that await you.

Now it’s your turn. What do you do to keep your resolutions alive? Let me know!
