| Greetings! |
Welcome to Run Your Own Race - the monthly newsletter from Grove Hill Coaching.
In the glorious words of Slade, 'It's CHRIIIISSSTTTMMMAAASSS!!!!' Well, almost. So what are you going to do? Are you from the 'bah-humbug' school or '5 year-old child' school of Christmas appreciation?
Like the 5 year-old, you could choose to enjoy unwrapping presents with wild childlike abandon, giving presents and of course, spending quality time with loved ones and see how you go. Hope you have fun either way...
By the way, I've just updated my website www.grovehillcoaching.com, so pop by and then share/forward the link to your friends, family and colleagues who you think would be interested or who you think could benefit from having a little more focus in their lives.

Can You Say 'I'm Better Than Yesterday' Today?
|  I overheard somebody in a cafe ask her friend how she was and her friend replied 'Better than yesterday'. They both smiled and continued with their coffee and conversation. Nothing unusual perhaps. Then it struck me that not only was this a lovely thing to be able to say at that time, but wouldn't it be wonderful to be able to respond to that question the same way every day? How much 'better' and happier would people and the world be?
So, with this in mind, what could you do today that will enable you to say 'I'm better than yesterday' tomorrow? |

When was the last time you did something
 in which you really believed? When you took a chance and stood out from the crowd and said 'This is me'?
Maybe people were supportive or maybe not, but it didn't matter as what was most important was for you to do your thing on your terms.
I recently saw Sinead O'Connor perform
on TV and her passion for what she was singing was almost frightening because it was so evident that she so believed in what she was doing. Read more...

What do you like doing? Really like doing? Reading that book you've been wanting to read for months? Skiing? Whitewater rafting? Lying on a beach? Going to the gym? Working? Gardening? Spending time with your family?
Life can be short. So whatever it is, take a moment to make time for it. To make time for you. It may not be for a while, but then, when the moment comes, do it and really enjoy it.
And when you're done, tell me how it went...

Marc & Angel Hack Life

As a coach, I read a lot of personal development and self-help materials especially online, however I have only subscribed to a few more interesting and significant ones.
One of these is Marc & Angel Hack Life and their 'Practical Tips For Modern Living'. Their site has many lists of things to think about to help you live a better life.
Have a look and tell me what you think. Hope you find it helpful...
