My daily reflection on Friday 10th March 7.07am

What went well?

Yesterday - I worked at the Happy Start Up co-working space and that was good. While i was there I bumped into and caught up with Andrea Anderson.  She is a friend and a coach - and I worked with her, as in she coached me for a while, last year - or it may have even been the year before that! Yes it was!  It was really good to be able to share all the progress I had made since then.  She had really helped me and I have made huge strides in all the areas we had discussed.  She has also moved on to wanting to set up a social enterprise and work with younger people.  It was a brilliant chat and it was really good to touch base with her again.  She brought up UncommonSense - and  - I have just started thinking tentatively about that again.  So it was good to be reminded of that goal.

I had a lovely lunch with Hub.  The sun was shining.  Bub did really well at swimming, he has improved so much.  Hub went and spent time with the bunnies we are bunnysitting, Wilfred and Barnaby, so they had a good run around.

Our builder has fitted our new bath and fixed a leak he found.

I had some bad news and I dealt with it as best as I could.  Hub shared with me honestly about something in a way that was real and good and trusting.

Caroline has invited Andrea to the event on the 25th as well.  I am excited about this event.  OH - and not sure if I mentioned it but I also had a good chat with Lis Cashin about ABLC going forward, assisting on being a coaching trainer.

Yesterday had a lovely catch up with Sally, and it seems that we are moving our coaching relationship to be part of the Coaching Circle mastermind.  I think this a good thing.


What could go better
Ah, bad news.  I had 2 bits of bad news.  I could have dealt with it even better.  Or maybe not.  Perhaps I can just give myself a break on that one.

Getting up and doing "miracle mornings" was definately hard this morning.  I allowed myself a little more of a lie and and a little less of the exercise.  I have done the affirmations as best as I can.  And I am determined to continue and keep going even though I really don't feel like it.  I am holding onto being very present and keeping my focus short.  I have a tendency to story off into the future and weave tales of woe that are not necessarily true.  So, I do feel bad, and a bit scared, and shaken.  Not so much.  I mean I am alright and this is a blip.  But only right now.  In the grand scheme of things its so very minor, all lives have blips and bumps in the road.  Am keeping going.

Learn to describe my work as well as I can so that folk know as well as can be, what to expect.

In future, we will arrange building work to be done in very small bursts.  We may have to consider moving to a bigger, more modern house, where building work is not necessary.

Longer term aims - keeping an eye on the bigger picture.
We have a beautiful eco, sound house.  I earn good money doing what I love.  I have set up the dates going forward for Wild Art Journaling, with a new course and some day and or weekend events.  I have dates set up for Lawrences and a newsletter going out on Tuesday for the folk who come to my event.  That event goes as well as it possibly can.  Be curious and open.  Not every one is going to like it or get what I want them to get from it.  It may be a a wild success or - who knows?.  Either way I will survive and I will have learned something. Uncommon Senses is an exciting venture that earns lots of money doing really fun work.  Bub is happy, and has skills to cope with life in the future.  We are all healthy in body, soul and mind.  My customers are brilliant, engaged, curious, vibrant and brave.  I am the best coach I can be.

To  do today.

Give my all to the Wild Art Journaling class.  Dream Landscapes.  Set dates for Lawrences and Happy Start Up.  Talk to builder and arrange a small break.  Sort premium bond money today.  book flights to Croatia in May.  Go to the supermarket and buy fruit and food stuffs to make curry.
