Right Where I Am Supposed To Be


Have you ever been in a situation where you look around and you immediately start to compare yourself to everyone else?

This morning I was surrounded by a group of women, many of which were around my age. We were meeting for the first time, so introductions were on the agenda. Not my favorite thing.

I’ve accomplished a lot myself, too, and plan to keep going.

I am thinking that this is going to be fun!


And this is what coaching has helped me to do. To be aware of my thoughts. To be on to my brain, and to decide to think whatever it is I want to think in what ever way that serves me best.
