[...] So I’ve been examining my associations with the words “coach” and “life coach”. A lot of them aren’t terribly favorable, so no wonder I was afraid to say it was what I wanted to do with my life. [...]

Hey Victoria! A wise person once said, "... Keep zeroing in - gently. And try to surround yourself as much as possible with the people who will support you rather than judge you for what you want to do. It’s so important to nurture that little elusive inkling of desire." Sound familiar? Go! Go! Go!:) Barbara Martin’s last blog post..8 Steps to Sensually Enhance Creative Space

Victoria, this is wonderful! Yay for you! I remember having so many of these feelings when I decided to go for what I wanted; but then in the process of Doing the Thing, I realized all this time I’d spent doing these other things had become incredibly useful. This so-called wasted time actually helped me help my clients even more than I could have otherwise. It wasn’t a waste at all. Okay, maybe some tiny part of it was, but I consider that part an investment. Because every time I look back, it motivates me to be that much better, just to prove to myself that it doesn’t matter when I started. There will always be enough time. And nothing is ever truly going to waste. You’ll surprise yourself by how much those Other Things will come in handy. Oh, and you’re going to make an AWESOME coach! My coach-dar is ringing loud and clear!

[...] This post by Victoria Brouhard (another thought-provoking blogger) sounds exactly like me, except just possibly for the coaching part. I don’t want to rule it out completely, because it’s in the range for me, but I’m still figuring it out. [...]

@Duff – Ugh – I’d definitely fail at being a success coach. If I can’t be real, then forget it, you know? Thanks for the offer to chat – I’ll definitely take you up on it soon!

@Mocah & @Sandra – Thanks! I’m glad to hear that the post is inspiring others, because that’s what it’s really about!

Thank you for having the courage to publish this! Isn’t it amazing when the thing that we hide inside in shame and fear is the thing that connects us to humanity? Good luck on your journey, you have inspired me to put myself out there a little more and to reach a little further; and to ignore the screaming child inside who tells me it’s no use.

Way to live out loud. Speaking it aloud is a great step to take. It's gotta be in there somewhere with the things you have to do in order to get there. Good on you. Mocha’s last blog post..I Prefer “456 Months Old”
