How often do you celebrate taking action (instead of the successful result)?

Up-coming Live Coaching-Infused Conversations (free)

>>> A 30-minute conversation to inspire you to start taking action RIGHT AWAY – toward that better life / career you dream of!

Q&A (about coaching / what I do) (July 5)

What’s really, really stopping you? (July 12, July 19)

=> Check out the Events page for more details!


I just realized that it’s International Chocolate Day at the end of this week (July 7th)!!!

I really, really, really like chocolate – especially dark chocolate with sea salt (my favorite at the moment!)…

And celebrations are an excellent excuse to have some chocolate…

Which reminds me of a question I like to ask my clients:

How will you celebrate taking that action you’ve just committed to (not waiting to see if you get the result you wanted)?

Somehow, many find it difficult to answer…

Because they think that “celebration” has got to be like a big party;

Because they’re used to only celebrate successful results that they can “show off”;

Because they’re used to just move on to the next “to do”…

Is that how you too see “celebration”?

But what if, instead, you celebrated taking that one action toward you goal?

What if you celebrated getting out of your comfort zone, even if just a little bit?

What if you took a few minutes of your time, just after taking that action, to acknowledge yourself?

Would that not motivate you to keep going, one action after another, often out of your comfort zone, taking you closer to your goal? – It certainly does it for me!!!

This week’s Coffee-break Coaching conversation

>>> A short conversation / reflection about a specific challenge that YOU’re facing right now, with YOU leaving with ONE action (designed by YOU, for YOU) to take right away!

This week’s topic: Celebrating taking the action, not waiting for the result

Think about one thing you’ve been wanting to do for a long time, something that takes you a little out of your comfort zone – like asking one of your LinkedIn connections (that you don’t know well) for a chat…

In theory, it’s not that hard to do… You know you can do it… But you’re not doing it…

***

Now, imagine that the next 20 minutes are just about YOU (your time, your space, your voice, your thoughts…) and you’re having a deep conversation with me, your coach... Just let your mind wander as you reflect on the questions below…:

  • Imagine you’ve done it (you’ve said something at the meeting, you’ve asked for the chat) – but you haven’t had any return yet. How do you feel? What do you notice within you?
  • If time was frozen right then, and you could “stay” with these feelings, what would you do? – Get your favorite drink or treat, go for a walk, journal…
  • Going back to the “real world”, how could you make any one of these activities happen – creating your own “celebration” moment?
  • Knowing that this “celebration” moment awaits you, how motivated are you now to take that action that takes you a little bit out of your comfort zone?
  • What did you get out of this conversation?

>>>> So, HOW will you CELEBRATE your next “out of your comfort zone” action?

It's so true, sometimes we forget to celebrate the small wins. For me, taking that first action towards a new client (especially the legal kind with all that paperwork!) is a huge accomplishment. Maybe my celebration isn't a giant chocolate bar (although that sounds tempting!), but acknowledging the progress keeps me motivated.

So powerful to celebrate every step of the way. I belong to an accountability group and it's a great for bragging, celebrating, and getting support.
