After a few warm and sunny days, our weather has slipped back into drizzly rain and overcast skies. I'm struck by how this word picture can also describe a human being's journey through our daily living experiences. I'm also reminded that when I encounter sunshine or drizzle, my experience of it depends on how I CHOOSE to experience it. I choose whether the sunshine is glorious or a nuisance in my eyes as I drive. I choose whether I experience the drizzle as a downer or a watering of the plants to keep them green. What choices will you make as you experience the days of this coming days?

Using Intentions For Any Experience

Coach Training, Community of Coaching, Life Coaching, Human Wholeness  

I have learned in my 10 years as a coach that setting intentions really does make a huge difference in the experiences I have.

After I set my intention and choose some actions and/or attitude that will support the intention, I set myself free to be PRESENT and live in the present moment.  Preparation (Intention) supports presence and increases my likelihood of enjoying my experience and feeling success.

I am getting read for a trip to Viet Nam and I again want to set an intention for that experience. 

My Intention for my trip to Viet Nam is:  I say %u2018yes%u2019 to new opportunities, relish every experience, bask in the light (physical and emotion) and refresh my spirit.

 I%u2019ll be writing a blog from Viet Nam%u2014let%u2019s see how I do!

Intentions are the magic behind the 'secret' of manifestation!

Meaning

"Meaning is not something you stumble across, like the answer to a riddle or the prize in a treasure hunt. Meaning is something you build into your life. You build it out of your own past, out of your affections and loyalties, out of the experience of humankind as it is passed on to you, out of your own talent and understanding, out of the things you believe in, out of the things and people you love, out of the values for which you are willing to sacrifice something. The ingredients are there. You are the only one who can put them together into that pattern that will be your life. Let it be a life that has dignity and meaning for you. If it does, then the particular balance of success or failure is of less account." John Gardner

This quote touched me when I read it in the book, "Fish!" by Stephen C. Lundin, Harry Paul & John Christensen (www.fishphilosophy.com). I spent much of 2009 contemplating and clarifying the meaning behind a huge miscommunication and upset within one of my business partnerships. As I examined my beliefs, attitudes and values, and had open, honest conversations with my partners, I became clearer about the meaning I choose to create in my life during 2010 and beyond.

I now pay closer attention to the conversations I have with others. I make time to visualize my own dreams and goals. I connect with Nature in ways that support me in being fully present in my life moment to moment. I'm noticing that while I have multiple things going on in my life that many would label as 'overwhelming,' I am experiencing them as stimulating and manageable. I attribute that to the new meaning of 'presence' I've assigned to my life.

What's the meaning you currently seek in your own life?

Gratitude

Having just enjoyed time with family and friends for Thanksgiving, I'm aware of what gratitude is able to add to the quality of life. As I looked around the dinner table at the faces of people I care about, participated in numerous and varied conversations and helped prepare the meal and then clean up afterward, my heart was filled with a peaceful sense of belonging. There was an ease of camaraderie, a gladness for being together and genuine eagerness to be together again at Christmas. I'm reminded to say to you, "I'm thankful that you are a part of my life." What are you most grateful for right now?

The Nature of Time

As we get ready to set our clocks back by one hour this weekend, I find myself contemplating the nature of time. I've noticed that my experience of time either expands or contracts, depending on how I'm focusing on it. When I say, "I don't have enough time," it's true; when I say, "There's plenty of time," that's true, too. If time is simply a device we human beings have agreed upon so that we can make certain appointments with one another and be there together, what is the benefit to us to allow time to constrict our experience outside those intersection points?
