| BREAKTHROUGH |

Do you limit yourself by underestimating your capacity? Do you want to stay in your comfort zone? Of course we all tend to do that. Is there something you want to step up to but instead you step on the brakes? You can't have a breakthrough with your foot on the brakes.

I invite you to name one breakthrough in 2013 that would make you feel very successful. Here are some clues in determining if something is going to be a breakthrough:
1. Something you always thought was unattainable.
2. Something you've tried many times.
3. Something that will make you feel uncomfortable at first and maybe even frightened.
4. Something that might make you excited
Here are some possible breakthroughs:
Sign up for a class, such as: cooking, music, voice, painting, jewelry making, dance, public speaking, etc.
Start dating
Reconcile with someone; ask for forgiveness
Deepen a friendship or relationship
Enroll in a challenging class at a local college
Volunteer to take leadership in a not for profit organization
Volunteer to teach something
Explore the values of another religion; attend a different religious service
Call a friend and plan an exciting camping, floating, or mountain adventure
Write the title and the outline of the introduction of your first book
Join a gym
Hire a personal trainer
Challenge yourself in your career
Confront and be honest with your supervisor
Confront and be honest with your staff
Explore a new career
Explore starting your own business
I invite you to select what your breakthrough will be. Make the selection this week. You don't have to know how to do the breakthrough - that will come later.
Of course I would love to hear what your breakthrough for 2013 will be. I coach people to acheive breakthroughs and am available to assist you. Invest in yourself. You're worth it!
