"Be Here Now"
Your Success Thought for the Week of December 5, 2007
I received numerous comments following my
November 7th Success Thought
entitled
'Coaching
Wisdom,' where I explored the distinction
between being in 'your story' vs. 'present
moment.'
As you may recall, 'your story' is something stuck in your mind that has little to do with today's reality. For example: looking at your 30-year-old business executive son and still seeing him as your ten-year-old. If you are, instead, in-the-moment with the impressive young man he's become, your interaction are more rewarding. Many Ah-Ha moments were shared by readers, like the COO who stopped taking his family for granted that day (his 'story' was that he was the only one in the family with pressures.) Peter instead looked more compassionately into his wife and children's eyes and started asking more questions. The result is increased spontaneity, laughter, and intimacy. Peter's choice to be in-the-moment benefited his entire family. At your request, below are the top five techniques that help my clients stay in-the-moment when the world around them is moving too fast and they are deluged with stories about pressure, stress and 'no way out:'
All of these techniques take time to develop. Only you can judge if it is time well spent. Experiment with the technique that spoke to you the most this week and let me know how it goes for you. It's always rewarding to hear back from my readers. Want a little cheater sheet reminder about these tips to cut out and put into your wallet so you can sneak a peek when you need to? Here you are!
Enjoy your discoveries and have an outstanding week. Ann
