Theme:?Transitions ~ Summer to Fall

No alt text provided for this image

Summer is coming to a close?and Back-to-School is just a few weeks away.?Not only do I have so many things on my plate, many of my clients are telling me that they are also busier now than ever before.?The world is filled with so many things right now, and it seems like it’s one of the busiest times in recent memory.

?

During these busy times, we need to make sure we protect our time and our health, both physical and mental.?When life gets this stressful, it’s important to not only find time to focus on your own self-care, but to also consider the importance of an abundance mindset.?

?

The?continuous demand to innovate, adapt, and execute wears on even the most high-performing individual or team, leading to stress, frustration, and even burnout.??I’ve spoken many times about self-care, so today?I invite you to choose to focus on abundance over scarcity.?An intentional abundance mindset creates the long-term and sustained success that people desire, especially leaders.

?

What is an abundance mindset??It’s knowing that there is enough to go around for everyone.?Those with an abundance mindset tend to move forward in life with fulfillment and confidence in what they have and what they’re capable of having because they believe in the power to create what they want.?

?

When people work toward developing an abundance mindset, they become empowered and see everything as an opportunity instead of a challenge or defeat.

?

The opposite of an abundance mindset is a scarcity mindset.?Someone with a scarcity mindset sees the world in terms of what is lacking.?Those with this mindset lead with fear, or a view that nothing is ever enough, and never will be enough.?They often shy away from anything that doesn’t feel realistic or doable.?

?

Someone with an abundance mindset approaches difficulty by learning what skills they need to develop to make their desires a reality and then moving forward to learn those skills.


How can you develop an abundance mindset?

Here are three simple ways you can start practicing an abundance mindset:

  1. Get curious. Make your first response one of curiosity. Think: How can I make that happen? What can I change or alter to give us the results we desire?
  2. Surround yourself with abundance-minded influence. If you are around only those with a scarcity mindset, you will be influenced. Therefore, be intentional about making sure you are around those with the mindset you are trying to develop. When you face difficult times, you will have them around you encouraging you and pushing you -- instead of feeding your fears.
  3. Shift your perspective. Whenever possible, flip your perspective around when it's not serving you. Challenges are opportunities. Change is an adventure. Failure is growth and learning.

What is one step that you can take today to further develop your own abundance mindset?


So as the warm breeze turns to a crisp chill, the beach days dwindle, saying goodbye to a well-spent summer may be challenging.?This year’s summer may have brought you cherished memories, wonderful travels, a chance to relax, and a fresh start.?

?

It’s best to celebrate and look back on those moments with gratitude and look forward to the remainder of the year with an abundance mindset.?Below are a few quotes that may soothe your summertime blues and induce you into autumn with high spirits.?

?

"To say it was a beautiful day would not begin to explain it. It was that day when the end of summer intersects perfectly with the start of fall."

– Ann Patchett

?

"September was a thirty-days long goodbye to summer, to the season that left everybody both happy and weary of the warm, humid weather and the exhausting but thrilling adventures."

– Lea Malot

?

"It is the glistening autumnal side of summer. I feel a cool vein in the breeze, which braces my thought, and I pass with pleasure over sheltered and sunny portions of the sand where the summer's heat is undiminished, and I realize what a friend I am losing."

– Henry David Thoreau

?

"I could never in a hundred summers get tired of this."

– Susan Branch

?

“The tans will fade but the memories will last forever."

– Unknown

?

“One must maintain a little bit of summer, even in the middle of winter.”

– Henry David Thoreau

?

?

If you're really committed to connecting with yourself as you're going through this transition from Summer into Fall, our Pathway to Purpose Women’s retreat would be the perfect space for you to do that without all of the noise that happens in the outside world.

"The explanations and strategies in the PQ portion of the course surprised me in a good way; I didn’t realize I was going to learn that much! It exceeded my expectations in our 1:1s when Kathy quickly zeroed in on what I needed and addressed it with references to what we were learning in PQ and sent me additional information that was particularly relevant."

What's Next?

Wow, last week was such a busy week for me - and one that filled me with so much joy & happiness!

Of course, I was coaching my incredible private practice clients as well as my Enterprise contract clients through ExecOnline.

These conversations are so gratifying, and I had 6 individuals share with me that they had each tried on a new perspective and felt that it gave them new insights that helped them move forward towards their goals. AMAZING!

I also had an incredibly fulfilling 2-Day Microsoft Leadership Team offsite. The focus was on co-creating their team charter, their mission, vision, and purpose statements. Not only did we achieve the objectives, but we also went on to co-create a legacy statement and supporting actions that the entire team agreed to. And to top it off we laughed, had fun, and each person left feeling valued individually and as a "TEAM".

Finally, I spent a long, lovely weekend celebrating my husband's birthday. Every day was something special for, and about, him.

My week took presence, focus, and for me to serve from love.

No longer do I wish I could live my life as I want it to be - I AM living my life the way I want it to be.

My life is exactly how I choose it to be.

  • In September I will have 3 spots opening up for private practice coaching clients.
  • I am also available for a Corporate Offsite/Onsite or Workshop.
  • I am beginning an 8-Week Positive Intelligence PQ Mental Fitness Program.?

?

So, if you'd like to work with me,?let’s have a call?to see if I can help you find what you're looking for.
