Keep you  eyes open for this information which will cover how to know if you are ready to work with a life coach.&lt;br />&lt;br />It still amazes me how many people still do not know anything about life coaching. This of course means they are missing out on an incredible resource to assist them in living the best life ever.&lt;br />&lt;br />If you fall into this category please take a look at this material as soon as it is published. Getting started with a life coach is easy and the option of a complimentary trial session is always available.&lt;br />&lt;br />If you have once thought..."I have goals and dreams but seem unable to reach them" treat yourself to a free trial session. It may be just what you have been looking for.&lt;/div></description><link>http://achieveyourdreamcoaching.com/blog/2006/06/is-life-coaching-for-you.html</link><author>Maureen</author></item><item><guid isPermaLink='false'>http://www.blogger.com/feeds/26955046/posts/full/115086405539495339</guid><pubDate>Wed, 21 Jun 2006 04:07:00 +0000</pubDate><atom:updated>2006-06-20T21:27:35.426-07:00</atom:updated><title>A Weekend of Family Fun</title><description>&lt;div xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml">I'm a little sad to be back after a weekend visit with my family...I must admit I still get homesick  even at my advanced age.&lt;br />&lt;br />Whereas I live in N.J.  the rest of my family lives in Massachusetts. When I drop in for a visit I enjoy a three day open house with brothers and sisters dropping in and out. On top of that I grew up in a gorgeous beach town and taking the jeep out on the beach...laying in the warm sun and listening to the waves is a true blessing.&lt;br />&lt;br />This weekend I was hoping my brother and sister-in-law would be welcoming their first child.....alas I will have to be patient a little longer. I am staying close to the phone and waiting for the call to tell me that I am an aunt again.&lt;br />&lt;br />My family is great and though they may poke fun at me  or give me a hard time they are in truth my greatest supporters. It is o.k. for them to make fun of me but just let someone outside the family try.  It would not be pretty.&lt;br />&lt;br />Family is something I am guilty of taking for granted... I don't intend to, it just happens.  Visiting my Dad really brought that home. His health is failing and I don't get to see him that often. When I do see him I often can't say to him all the things I am truly longing to. Life is short and in the end... for me... family is what I have.&lt;br />&lt;br />My family is a huge part of my connection with the human race. They are the ones that have witnessed my life unfolding almost as long as I have and are not afraid to share their perspective of how it is turning out.&lt;br />&lt;br />I am grateful for the unique, quirky family I have been granted. In my eyes they are the best.&lt;/div></description><link>http://achieveyourdreamcoaching.com/blog/2006/06/weekend-of-family-fun.html</link><author>Maureen</author></item><item><guid isPermaLink='false'>http://www.blogger.com/feeds/26955046/posts/full/115039556871120164</guid><pubDate>Thu, 15 Jun 2006 18:06:00 +0000</pubDate><atom:updated>2006-06-15T11:19:28.720-07:00</atom:updated><title>Maintaining Focus</title><description>&lt;div xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml">&lt;span style="font-family: trebuchet ms;">Maintaining focus is crucial if I want to achieve any important goal. I know on a daily basis that if don't maintain focus  in this business I am creating...it will never be what I want it to be.&lt;br />&lt;br />I work in one business while spending many hours creating Achieve Your Dream Coaching and many days I end up lying in bed staring at the ceiling reviewing what I didn't get done....why?...because I  lost my focus that day.&lt;br />&lt;br />Easy enough to do. I am a curious woman and their are a lot of interesting things that I would love to learn more about.  Achieve your dream Coaching however is my baby. It is what truly represents what I want to accomplish in my life and I love all the work I put into it.&lt;br />&lt;br />If I want it to succeed however I must exercise focus and discipline (I'm working on it). Somedays it is harder than others but I believe that if I maintain focus I will have a great business...I will be able to interact will incredible people... and  hopefully I will be able to make some small difference.&lt;br />&lt;br />Not a bad trade off&lt;br />&lt;/span>&lt;/div></description><link>http://achieveyourdreamcoaching.com/blog/2006/06/maintaining-focus_15.html</link><author>Maureen</author></item><item><guid isPermaLink='false'>http://www.blogger.com/feeds/26955046/posts/full/115025701346354885</guid><pubDate>Wed, 14 Jun 2006 03:37:00 +0000</pubDate><atom:updated>2006-06-13T20:51:12.483-07:00</atom:updated><title>Taking Care of Yourself</title><description>&lt;div xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml">I'm sure everyone can appreciate that feeling of being overwhelmed. Running around in 10 different directions trying to get everything done when in fact it woud be pretty much impossible to get everything done. It's a bit of a dream some days.&lt;br />&lt;br />Well that's been my life lately......but in all honesty I love my life and I don't really want to change too much of it. I would however like a little extra time for me.&lt;br />&lt;br />I was a little over extended and on a whim I booked myself a massage. I picked just the right girl for me. She barely spoke..... the lights and music were soothing and I had a delicious hour devoted just to me.&lt;br />&lt;br />Wow..... I had once again neglected taking care of me but managed to be taking care of everyone else. I forgot once again that if I want to chip in and help others I must at least value myself enough to take care of ME.&lt;br />&lt;br />It wasn't until I was about half way through the massage that the thoughts of ......"OH this is wonderful. this is just what I 've needed" started running through my head. I need to make myself a priority.&lt;br />&lt;br />Seems simple but as my life gets crazier it's a principle that I keep letting slip my mind.&lt;br />&lt;br />I'll have to keep working on that.&lt;/div></description><link>http://achieveyourdreamcoaching.com/blog/2006/06/taking-care-of-yourself.html</link><author>Maureen</author></item><item><guid isPermaLink='false'>http://www.blogger.com/feeds/26955046/posts/full/114990676810369241</guid><pubDate>Sat, 10 Jun 2006 02:08:00 +0000</pubDate><atom:updated>2006-06-09T19:32:48.180-07:00</atom:updated><title>So What Isn't A  Life Coach?</title><description>&lt;div xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml">A Life Coach is not a mentor or a therapist or a consultant though the roots of coaching can probably be found in all three of these disciplines.&lt;br />&lt;br />A mentor shares their experiences on a particular topic and will share their insights with you. A mentoring relationship is one of a client looking up to the mentor. In contrast to this, the coaching relationship is a partnership with both participants are walking side by side with the coach assisting the client in accessing their own wisdom.&lt;br />&lt;br />A consultant is usually a specialist in a particular field. He or she is hired by the client to provide their expertise and develop solutions. Once the problems are solved the consultant moves on. A coach will work side by side with the client to look at the issue, come up with a plan of action and support the plan through fulfillment. A coach does not have to be the expert in a field, the client is the expert.&lt;br />&lt;br />A therapist is concerned with getting people that are perceived as unhealthy and bringing them to health. They are often concerned with past issues surrounding an issue. A coach in contrast works in the present and is focused upon bringing  the client into an incredible future, achieving the goals and dreams they desire.&lt;br />&lt;br />Where as there may be some similarities between mentors, therapists and consultants, coaching is quite unique in that it is a collaborative and action oriented partnership between coach and client with both parties working for the benefit of the client.&lt;/div></description><link>http://achieveyourdreamcoaching.com/blog/2006/06/so-what-isnt-life-coach.html</link><author>Maureen</author></item><item><guid isPermaLink='false'>http://www.blogger.com/feeds/26955046/posts/full/114956380250319538</guid><pubDate>Tue, 06 Jun 2006 03:05:00 +0000</pubDate><atom:updated>2006-06-05T20:16:42.510-07:00</atom:updated><title>Try To Keep an Open Mind</title><description>&lt;div xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml">Boy oh boy today was one of those days when things kept coming up and I just wanted to jump to conclusions and make judgments about just about everything.&lt;br />&lt;br />The stress level was high and I really felt pushed to the limit.....I just kept reminding myself "try to keep an open mind."  It was a battle at certain points today.&lt;br />&lt;br />Why try to keep an open mind??  Well for one if I keep an open mind I have a much greater variety of choices. I don't see things in such black and white and I often keep myself from jumping to a conclusion that I later regret..... or in other words I look like a jerk.&lt;br />&lt;br />During one conversation with my son it came in particularly handy. I was running late. I had lent him my car earlier in the day and as I headed out the door I couldn't find the car keys....."he must still have them" I thought and now I'll really be late.&lt;br />&lt;br />I gave him a call, kept my tone level and asked if he knew where they were....."right on the counter" he replied. It took a few moments but I found them....he didn't have to get defensive and I didn't look like an idiot.....whew.&lt;/div></description><link>http://achieveyourdreamcoaching.com/blog/2006/06/try-to-keep-open-mind.html</link><author>Maureen</author></item><item><guid isPermaLink='false'>http://www.blogger.com/feeds/26955046/posts/full/114947101138587617</guid><pubDate>Mon, 05 Jun 2006 01:23:00 +0000</pubDate><atom:updated>2006-06-04T19:49:02.616-07:00</atom:updated><title>So What's A Life Coach Anyway?</title><description>&lt;div xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml">Life coaching has been around for sometime and still it's not difficult to find someone who has no idea what a life coach is. They ask "is it like a therapist?" Or sometimes they ask "oh is that like a personal trainer?"&lt;br />&lt;br />So what is a life coach anyway?  Well a personal trainer is a kind of a coach. They help  you achieve certain health goals. They are especially effective if you have been trying to reach a goal but feel stuck.&lt;br />&lt;br />A life coach works much the same way helping you work towards any number of goals you are trying to achieve. Their are as many types of life coaches as their are areas people want to improve in their life.&lt;br />&lt;br />Their are success coaches, empowerment coaches, recovery coaches,relationship coaches and divorce readjustment coaches just to name a few.&lt;br />&lt;br />Coaching is a collaborative partnership. Both the coach and the client work towards achieving the goals of the client. Coaching can occur in many settings. A large portion of it occurs via phone calls though it can be face to face or via e-mail as well.&lt;br />&lt;br />A coach will assist you as you clarify your goals and aid you in putting a plan in place to achieve them. A coach will also hold you accountable for what you commit to in order to achieve your goal. You have the answers to what is best for you and your unique life path. A coach can help you uncover those answers so that you can move forward.&lt;br />&lt;br />While there are no set time frames as to how long coaching should last it is wise to be willing to commit at lest three months to the process.&lt;br />&lt;br />Most coaches offer a complimentary trial session to see it the two of you would be a good fit. If you really don't know much about the whole coaching process this is a safe way to do a little exploration.&lt;br />&lt;br />There are many areas in life where we get stuck. We may be able to eventually get unstuck and keep moving forward ourselves. Working with a coach streamlines that process and allows you to achieve goals you may not otherwise have dreamed of attempting.&lt;/div></description><link>http://achieveyourdreamcoaching.com/blog/2006/06/so-whats-life-coach-anyway.html</link><author>Maureen</author></item><item><guid isPermaLink='false'>http://www.blogger.com/feeds/26955046/posts/full/114912947140322700</guid><pubDate>Thu, 01 Jun 2006 02:07:00 +0000</pubDate><atom:updated>2006-05-31T19:37:51.450-07:00</atom:updated><title>What Would You Do.........</title><description>&lt;div xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml">&lt;span style="font-family: georgia;font-family:trebuchet ms;" >What would you do if you knew you could not fail?

"Huh"  I answered coming back from wherever I was in my own little world...."I was talking to you.  Didn't you hear me"?  No I hadn't heard him because I wasn't listening and it got me to reflecting how often do I do that, Just zone out on my husband when he's talking to me......or my kids.&lt;br />&lt;br />These are the people with whom I want to have my most intimate relationships and I think sometimes I give them the least care. I guess I feel that I will  always have time to listen to them.  I think, though that I don't always give them the respect I give to my clients.&lt;br />&lt;br />My clients get my full attention I listen with both ears, to every word, to what they are saying and what they might not be saying.... sometimes that is just as important.&lt;br />I may be missing something important with my loved one if I don't take the opportunity to listen to them with both ears.&lt;br />&lt;br />If nothing else at least they will know they are worth the effort. I suspect my reward will be even greater.&lt;/div></description><link>http://achieveyourdreamcoaching.com/blog/2006/05/listening-with-both-ears.html</link><author>Maureen</author></item><item><guid isPermaLink='false'>http://www.blogger.com/feeds/26955046/posts/full/114869643363332864</guid><pubDate>Sat, 27 May 2006 02:05:00 +0000</pubDate><atom:updated>2006-05-26T19:20:33.643-07:00</atom:updated><title>Enron and Integrity</title><description>&lt;div xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml">&lt;span style="font-family: verdana;">With one of the major news stories concerning the guilty verdict in the Enron trial it makes me reflect about integrity in business. The guilty verdict seems to be the stamp of approval that people are not going to put up with corrupt business practices. That's a positive vote for all of us.&lt;br />&lt;br />&lt;/span> &lt;br />&lt;span style="font-family: verdana;">Business today is hard enough and with so much business being conducted on the web it can be tricky trying to develop relationships with people you trust. When I am at my "other job" almost everyone I deal with is face to face. Learning to wind my way through the worldwide web is a little more challenging. I can't look the person I want to do business with straight in the eye. I can't hear the tone of voice,or shake his or her hand.&lt;br />&lt;br />&lt;/span> &lt;br />&lt;span style="font-family: verdana;">I proceed with a great deal of faith and reading between the lines. I feel I have been fortunate because many of the alliances and relationships I have developed as I create this online business have been  with people of integrity, something I value highly. These are the people who I am thrilled to  associate with and introduce to  the clients I serve. They go above and beyond and are genuinely caring.&lt;br /> &lt;/span>&lt;br /> &lt;br />&lt;span style="font-family: verdana;">Revisiting the  Enron scandal again today has just reinded me that though there are people out there operating from greed and personal satisfaction, honesty and integrity are still valued by the majority. &lt;/span>&lt;/div></description><link>http://achieveyourdreamcoaching.com/blog/2006/05/enron-and-integrity.html</link><author>Maureen</author></item><item><guid isPermaLink='false'>http://www.blogger.com/feeds/26955046/posts/full/114857449414173410</guid><pubDate>Thu, 25 May 2006 16:27:00 +0000</pubDate><atom:updated>2006-05-25T09:58:17.136-07:00</atom:updated><title>Do You Commit or Do You Try?</title><description>&lt;div xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml">I&lt;span style="font-family:arial;"> was having a conversation the other day and someone (my coach) asked me to do something and the first response out of my mouth was "I'll try".  "Let's start over" he said and as he repeated the same request I knew he was looking for a commitment...&lt;/span>  &lt;span style="font-family:arial;">&lt;br />Which I gave him. So now I was stuck because I had to come through. If I had been allowed to slide by with "I'll try" I would have had a wonderful trapdoor just ready to escape through if the going got to tough.&lt;br />&lt;/span> &lt;span style="font-family:arial;">Being the great coach he is, he knew that and what he wanted me to commit to was ultimately for my benefit. He also knew enough to understand that for me a commitment means I have to follow through.&lt;br />&lt;/span> &lt;span style="font-family:arial;">I started thinking back on how often I use "I'll try" as a way of leaving me an out. More often than I want to admit and perhaps that's why I'm not always getting the results I want.&lt;br />&lt;/span> &lt;span style="font-family:arial;">I always hated it when our parents would say "we'll see" to almost every request we made. That was their trapdoor, their way out if they didn't want to follow through. From a child's perspective it is one of the most dreaded responses because you know it's code for "no".&lt;/span>  &lt;span style="font-family:arial;">&lt;br />Trying may get something accomplished but a greater success rate will be achieved if we just commit to whatever we are stuck on at this minute. If it's a bad habit ...."I'm trying to quit smoking" or  a response to someone making a request in a relationship.."Do you think you might make it home a little earlier tonight?" or even at work "Are you able to get me the paperwork I asked you for?"  Trying just doesn't seem to inspire any confidence.&lt;br />Commit to edging out the word try  as you approach things and see if there is a positive result. I know that is my new intention.&lt;br />&lt;/span>&lt;/div></description><link>http://achieveyourdreamcoaching.com/blog/2006/05/do-you-commit-or-do-you-try.html</link><author>Maureen</author></item><item><guid isPermaLink='false'>http://www.blogger.com/feeds/26955046/posts/full/114843997775076949</guid><pubDate>Wed, 24 May 2006 03:06:00 +0000</pubDate><atom:updated>2006-05-23T20:15:49.886-07:00</atom:updated><title>Self-Esteem and Self-confidence</title><description>&lt;div xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml">&lt;span style="font-family:verdana;">I have been spending most of the past week researching and reading about self-esteem and  self-confidence for a project I am working on.&lt;/span>&lt;br />&lt;span style="font-family:verdana;">This is some heavy stuff.&lt;br />&lt;br />&lt;/span>&lt;span style="font-family:verdana;">I know there was a time in my life when both my self-esteem and self-confidence were at basement level.

Where I live in western N.J. we have volunteer fire departments and rescue squads. They have many fund raisers and we try to help support them whenever we can.&lt;br />&lt;/span>&lt;br />&lt;span style="font-family:georgia;">Tonight they had an Elvis impersonator come in and do his show "Memories of Elvis Presley."&lt;/span>&lt;br />&lt;span style="font-family:georgia;">I wasn't quite sure if it would be any good and to be honest Elvis is a little before my time, but I talked my husband into taking me since I had already paid for the tickets!&lt;br />&lt;/span>&lt;br />&lt;span style="font-family:georgia;">We really had fun. I knew almost every song which just proves to me we should all learn to music because I didn't even know that I knew some of the songs until he started singing.&lt;/span>&lt;br />&lt;span style="font-family:georgia;">(are you following me?)&lt;br />&lt;/span>&lt;br />&lt;span style="font-family:georgia;">Anyway the whole audience seemed to be having a great time and my husband and I were sitting there with goofy grins on our faces, singing along....what a picture, right?&lt;br />&lt;/span>&lt;br />&lt;span style="font-family:georgia;">Boy did Elvis Presley put out a lot of music. It was fun listening to it and it was for an important cause. I can't express the amount of respect that I have for the members of both these squads.&lt;br />&lt;/span>&lt;br />&lt;span style="font-family:georgia;">My husband's house caught on fire...before he and I met.  If it was not for the quick response of our local volunteer fire department it would have been a complete disaster. We both have a great respect for what they do and the time they give to their communities. We support the fire and rescue squads because we have needed them on several occasions and they have never let us down.&lt;br />&lt;/span>&lt;br />&lt;span style="font-family:georgia;">Oh and by the way, if you are ever looking for a great Elvis Presley impersonator  try Joe Angerosa.

I just was having one of those days. I don't know if it's the weather or what but I have been in a funk. My son-in-law whom I work with seemed to be in the same mood and since we were the only two on in the furniture store, it made for a long quiet day.&lt;br />&lt;br />I finally stopped and asked myself...O.K. what if this were it??  What if this was your last day on earth? Is this how you want it to be?? I chewed on that for awhile and eventually my mood started to lift.&lt;br />&lt;br />All in all my life is wonderful. We all have days that are downers but, I can change my day anytime I want. I can just start it over.  I have good friends and I am a good friend.&lt;br />&lt;br />I work hard at business and the returns are quite evident.&lt;br />&lt;br />I have a great relationship with my kids and my husband and oh yes, my connection to a higher power is one of my greatest strengths.&lt;br />&lt;br />I have a coaching business that I love and it puts me in touch with the most fascinating people.&lt;br />&lt;br />As I write this now I can honestly say it's been a great day.  I'm home, working on my coaching business, which is truly my passion in life and all is well.&lt;br />&lt;br />I hope it turned out to be a pretty good (or even great, because why settle for pretty good) day for you as well.&lt;br />&lt;br />If not, starting looking inside for your best. We all have wonderful assets we bring to this world.&lt;br />Don't let us miss out on yours.&lt;/div></description><link>http://achieveyourdreamcoaching.com/blog/2006/05/look-for-best-inside-yourself.html</link><author>Maureen</author></item><item><guid isPermaLink='false'>http://www.blogger.com/feeds/26955046/posts/full/114798996080228061</guid><pubDate>Thu, 18 May 2006 20:01:00 +0000</pubDate><atom:updated>2006-05-18T15:06:00.860-07:00</atom:updated><title>Improving Self-Confidence, Stop Comparing</title><description>&lt;div xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml">&lt;span style="font-family:arial;">I noticed today as I was watching a morning talk show (something I don't do very often) that I started comparing myself with many of the women in the audience. This one was thinner than me, that one had nicer clothes than I do, and the girl in the back row really knew how to put herself together and on and on.&lt;br />&lt;br />&lt;/span>&lt;span style="font-family:arial;">So here I am taking a few minutes out of my day to relax and I'm starting to feel as though some how I'm not good enough. "What's this about?" I asked myself. I tried to figure out why I automatically started painting myself in the negative as I made these comparisons. &lt;/span>&lt;br />&lt;br />&lt;span style="font-family:arial;">I understand that our brains are huge computers, taking in tons of information and analyzing it. That is why I even picked up on differences between me and these other women. It was something else that cast the negative light on it. That was the little voice that sometimes creeps in and says "maybe you're not good enough." &lt;/span>&lt;br />&lt;br />&lt;span style="font-family:arial;">O.K. after I told that gremlin, the little voice of self-doubt to shut up. I looked at the audience again. This time I looked at the woman who looked so put together. I could pull that off. In fact I thought I could even do it a little better. &lt;/span>&lt;br />&lt;br />&lt;span style="font-family:arial;">The woman with the nicer clothes... well maybe her clothes were nicer or maybe I needed to try some fresh combinations of favorites I already had.&lt;br />&lt;br />&lt;/span>&lt;br />&lt;span style="font-family:arial;">The woman who was thinner.... I may never be as thin as she is but I am working harder each day to get in the best shape possible.&lt;br />&lt;br />&lt;/span>&lt;br />&lt;span style="font-family:arial;">Now instead of making negative comparisons my mind was looking at some possibilities. &lt;/span>&lt;br />&lt;span style="font-family:arial;">Making comparisons that cause us to feel negatively about ourselves rob us of our self-confidence. Try looking at possibilities that build you up and get you looking at what is positive instead of falling into the negative comparisons with others that leave us feeling less than.&lt;/span>&lt;/div></description><link>http://achieveyourdreamcoaching.com/blog/2006/05/improving-self-confidence-stop.html</link><author>Maureen</author></item><item><guid isPermaLink='false'>http://www.blogger.com/feeds/26955046/posts/full/114792265795271600</guid><pubDate>Wed, 17 May 2006 21:29:00 +0000</pubDate><atom:updated>2006-05-17T20:24:18.030-07:00</atom:updated><title>New England Floods Cause Havoc</title><description>&lt;div xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml">I am originally from New England and spent a lot of time in the area of N.E. New England being affected by the floods from recent rains. My daughter currently lives in one of the areas that has experienced major flooding.&lt;br />&lt;br />As I looked at the photos she forwarded to me of the damage done by the flood waters I couldn't help but be in awe of the power of mother nature. We may think that we build heavy duty dams  and provide for rainfall but it was no match for the onslaught of water that hit in such a short span of time.&lt;br />&lt;br />As I watched people being interviewed on television about how they felt having to evacuate their homes I couldn't help but be impressed. New Englanders are a hardy sort. They grabbed what they could and determined they would deal with the aftermath when possible.&lt;br />&lt;br />During one phone conversation with my daughter, she was just returning from a friends apartment where they had been placing the furniture on stacks of cinder blocks. This was to help shield it from the water that was already at the back door and very sure to be coming in to some degree.&lt;br />&lt;br />My thoughts go out to all those who have suffered with the situation  of flood waters in New England and the havoc they have caused.  I see damage being done to places I have lived and it makes me sad.&lt;br />&lt;br />My thoughts and prayer go out to all living in that region.&lt;/div></description><link>http://achieveyourdreamcoaching.com/blog/2006/05/new-england-floods-cause-havoc.html</link><author>Maureen</author></item><item><guid isPermaLink='false'>http://www.blogger.com/feeds/26955046/posts/full/114780351375815093</guid><pubDate>Tue, 16 May 2006 18:06:00 +0000</pubDate><atom:updated>2006-05-16T11:18:33.766-07:00</atom:updated><title>After Mothers Day</title><description>&lt;div xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml">Just wanted to check in quickly and see how everyone made out after Mother's Day. Some people absolutely love it and for other people it is a struggle.&lt;br />&lt;br />I am a Mother. I have two children and  three step-children Only two of them live close to home though. I don't live close to my Mom  and was not going to be able to spend the day with her. That is always a little hard for me.&lt;br />&lt;br />In fact I spent the day working in our family business which was just as well. It gave my step-daughter the day to spend with her two kids and her Mom.&lt;br />&lt;br />I also have a sister in law who is pregnant with her and my brother's first child and another brother and sister in law who have gone through many attempts to conceive without success. For one couple Mother's Day is a joy, for the other it is a struggle.&lt;br />&lt;br />I have friends who are Mother's but have already lost their own Mothers.  For them the day is bittersweet.&lt;br />&lt;br />Where ever you may fall amongst the women who have just made it through Mother's Day, Please know you are being supported.&lt;br />&lt;br />You are supported with good thoughts, well wishes, and prayers.&lt;br />&lt;br /> Until next time....&lt;/div></description><link>http://achieveyourdreamcoaching.com/blog/2006/05/after-mothers-day.html</link><author>Maureen</author></item><item><guid isPermaLink='false'>http://www.blogger.com/feeds/26955046/posts/full/114757379998629197</guid><pubDate>Sun, 14 May 2006 01:45:00 +0000</pubDate><atom:updated>2006-05-13T19:30:00.020-07:00</atom:updated><title>Dealing With Overwhelm</title><description>&lt;div xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml">&lt;span style="font-family:lucida grande;">I wanted  to make sure I posted to my blog today after taking yesterday off. I was so overwhelmed by Thursday night. I have been either working, out at meetings, or traveling every single solid day for the last 4-5 weeks.&lt;br />&lt;br />&lt;span style="font-family:times new roman;">I&lt;/span>&lt;/span>&lt;span style="font-family:times new roman;"> kept wondering why I was so low on energy and typical of me, I figured I would push harder and would just be able to "shake it off." As the days went by and I didn't appear to bounce back I decided to talk to my coach about it.&lt;br />I am a Life Coach and sometimes it surprises people that most good coaches have a coach of their own. My own coach encourages and helps me forward myself so that I can do the same for the clients I work with. As I talked to my coach he asked a very important question, which was....When is the last time you have taken some time just for you to do whatever you want to do? Not what you need to do. Not what you have to do. What you &lt;span style="font-weight: bold;">want &lt;/span>to do.&lt;br />&lt;br />It had been a very long time. Then came the next question....How do you expect to feel invigorated if you never actually let you body and mind relax so that it can recharge itself?&lt;br />&lt;br />I am a fairly intelligent woman and deep down I knew I was running myself ragged and tapping all my energy resources. I also knew I would have to slow down at least for a short time. The voice in my head however kept screaming, NO! There's too much to do! In fact I was overwhelmed by everything I was trying to get done.&lt;br />&lt;br />My coach asked me to make a commitment to taking Friday afternoon and evening off. I was to nothing that would take much energy. I was just supposed to kick back and enjoy myself, let the feelings of overwhelm  dissipate.&lt;br />&lt;br />Tentatively, I took my book and went out on my back porch. It was a beautiful day. Sunny and 70 degrees. I put up my feet and just lost myself in the pages. I ordered take-out for my husband and myself and watched  T.V&lt;br />all night. I got to bed early and woke the next morning feeling a little less overwhelmed.&lt;br />&lt;br />Often times it's hard to determine that we are overwhelmed, that we need a little break. It's important however to try and notice when those feelings are starting to take over. Dealing with feelings of overwhelm can be pretty easy especially if we nip it in the bud.&lt;br />&lt;br />Just stop all the constant doing.  The world isn't going to fall apart if we take a few hours off.&lt;br />&lt;br />Choose something you like to do. Get a book and curl up. Schedule a manicure or pedicure or better yet get a massage.&lt;br />&lt;br />Go for a leisurely walk or just take a long nap.&lt;br />&lt;br />If you have kids, recruit your husband, a good friend, or a babysitter if need be to give you a few hours of just "you" time.&lt;br />&lt;br />The rewards will be well worth it. You won't feel as overwhelmed. You're stress levels will lessen and your outlook should be a little brighter.&lt;br />&lt;br />Now remember to keep taking time for you on a regular basis.&lt;br />&lt;br />&lt;/span>&lt;/div></description><link>http://achieveyourdreamcoaching.com/blog/2006/05/dealing-with-overwhelm.html</link><author>Maureen</author></item><item><guid isPermaLink='false'>http://www.blogger.com/feeds/26955046/posts/full/114740381552160057</guid><pubDate>Thu, 11 May 2006 23:39:00 +0000</pubDate><atom:updated>2006-05-11T20:16:55.553-07:00</atom:updated><title>Weight Training Routines Revisited</title><description>&lt;div xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml">&lt;span style="font-family:courier new;">&lt;span style="font-family:trebuchet ms;">Well, last night when I was posting I was a little tired and I knew I would be getting up early to go to the Super Slow Zone near where I live.&lt;br />On reflecting back I remembered that I forgot to include some of the greatest benefits I enjoy from this kind of weight training routine.&lt;br />&lt;br />1. The routine only takes 20- 25 minutes. In this time I cover all the muscle groups and receive great aerobic benefits from the type of breathing used while training.&lt;br />&lt;br />2. You work one on one with an instructor who has had intensive education in this particular weight training routine.&lt;/span>&lt;/span> &lt;span style="font-family:trebuchet ms;">That allowed me to reach levels of fitness I probably would not have&lt;/span>  &lt;span style="font-family:trebuchet ms;">achieved on my own. The accountability factor can be very motivating&lt;/span>&lt;br />&lt;br />3.&lt;span style="font-family:trebuchet ms;"> You do not have more than 2 people working out at the same time. There is no loud music. There is no chit chat. You go in and focus on your weight training routine and you get out.&lt;br />&lt;br />4. You only work out twice a week. It is extremely important that you let the body recover in between workouts. If you want to enjoy a walk, run, or bike ride in between workouts it should be more recreational and less intense. This is to allow you to reap the greatest benefits from this type of weight training routine.&lt;br />&lt;br />5. I see college kids, young women, older women, very old men as well the buff body builders one might expect. This is a weight training routine that can be tailored for every age. You develop your strength at a rate that works for your individual needs.&lt;br />&lt;br />As I mentioned before you can get more information on this type of weight training at  www.superslowzone.com.  This type of weight training is becoming more widely recognized for it's health benefits. If you are tired of your existing routine or no longer seeing the benefits you would like,Super Slow might be for you.&lt;/span>&lt;/div></description><link>http://achieveyourdreamcoaching.com/blog/2006/05/weight-training-routines-revisited.html</link><author>Maureen</author></item><item><guid isPermaLink='false'>http://www.blogger.com/feeds/26955046/posts/full/114731860780388735</guid><pubDate>Thu, 11 May 2006 03:08:00 +0000</pubDate><atom:updated>2006-05-10T20:47:34.270-07:00</atom:updated><title>Weight Training Routines</title><description>&lt;div xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml">&lt;span style="font-family:arial;">Weight training routines have been talked about extensively over the past few years. The benefits women can derive by adopting a weight training routine are realized by most people these days.&lt;br />&lt;br />Even though women are hearing about how good weight training is for you, I still know many women who have neglected to make this a part of their overall fitness program. I don't think they realize how detrimental it is to not have a good weight training routine.&lt;span style="font-family:arial;">&lt;br />&lt;br />As a woman who has used weight training as a major portion of my&lt;span style="text-decoration: underline;">&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;">&lt;/span>&lt;/span> regimen of exercise, I would like to share a little about my weight training routine. Though I spent many years working with free weights with pretty good results, I was introduced to a weight training routine by the name of Super Slow Zone last August.&lt;br />&lt;br />This routine is incredible. It is the most physically and mentally demanding  weight training routine I have ever participated in. The rewards I have seen have been huge. I definitely have a strong love/hate relationship with this routine.&lt;br />&lt;br />No, I don't look ready for a body building contest or a pin-up photo for a bodybuilding magazine.&lt;br />I am however, stronger and more toned than I have ever been.&lt;br />&lt;br />It's hard to imagine, but this program has also helped me with my mental focus as well my discipline in everyday life..&lt;br />&lt;br />Super Slow Zone is a franchise. If you search for them on the web you will probably find one close by. Go try a complimentary session and see if it may be a good addition to your exercise routine.&lt;br />&lt;br />It's the best weight training routine I have ever found and I intend on sticking with it the rest of my life.&lt;br />&lt;/span>&lt;/span>&lt;div   style="border: 0pt none ;

Ever since I was in grade school I felt as though my esteem was lagging even though I didn't have a name for it at that age.&lt;br />&lt;br />I don't even like to think about those awkward teenage years... I still cringe.&lt;br />As I moved into adulthood and beyond I realized that I was going to have to take charge of increasing my own self-esteem. No one was waiting in line to do it for me. (don't I wish!)&lt;br />&lt;br />I have done a lot of reading about self-esteem and listening to programs about it. By implementing many of the tools and suggestions I discovered, I have positively raised my level of self-esteem on a continuous basis. The results I experience have been well worth the effort.&lt;br />&lt;br />I was introduced to Dr. Joe Rubino by way of a teleclass this evening. He is a very caring and dedicated individual when it comes to the subject of developing self-esteem. He has an extensive background on working with people developing self-esteem both personally and professionally.&lt;br />&lt;br />After listening carefully to what he had to say, I determined that I would get a hold of his workbook on developing self-esteem.  If developing self-esteem is an area in your life that you would like to work on, I suggest you check out his book at www.theselfesteembook.com.&lt;br />&lt;br />Don't hesitate. This could be just the help you have been hoping for.&lt;br />&lt;br />&lt;/span>&lt;/div></description><link>http://achieveyourdreamcoaching.com/blog/2006/05/deveoping-self-esteem.html</link><author>Maureen</author></item><item><guid isPermaLink='false'>http://www.blogger.com/feeds/26955046/posts/full/114730871909760360</guid><pubDate>Thu, 11 May 2006 00:26:00 +0000</pubDate><atom:updated>2006-05-10T17:51:59.116-07:00</atom:updated><title>How To Build Self-Confidence</title><description>&lt;div xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml">&lt;span style="font-family:arial;">Building self-confidence in social situations can be difficult unless you remember that the other person is usually just as nervous as you.&lt;br />&lt;br />Why do you think so many people want a drink or two to loosen up?&lt;br />&lt;br />If you are a naturally curious person, learning how to build self-confidence will be a cinch.&lt;br />If on the other hand you tend to not want to know much about other people you may have to hone your questioning skills a bit.&lt;br />&lt;/span>&lt;br />&lt;span style="font-family:arial;">Introduce yourself to the first person available. Ask them what they do? What brought them there?&lt;br />Most people love to talk about themselves. After all it's a subject they know lots about.&lt;br />&lt;br />Ask questions that give the other person room to express themselves. By asking a "you" question instead of making an "I" statement you will find yourself quickly in a conversation.&lt;br />&lt;br />People will think you are a wonderful listener and they will want to naturally be around you.&lt;br />&lt;br />This is how I learned to build self-confidence in social situations. I used to dread going into a room full of strangers and would find the nearest corner to hide in.&lt;br />&lt;br />Now I look forward to an opportunity to meet people I have never met before. Try it and let me know if it works.&lt;br />&lt;/span>&lt;/div></description><link>http://achieveyourdreamcoaching.com/blog/2006/05/how-to-build-self-confidence.html</link><author>Maureen</author></item><item><guid isPermaLink='false'>http://www.blogger.com/feeds/26955046/posts/full/114598585802616338</guid><pubDate>Tue, 25 Apr 2006 17:23:00 +0000</pubDate><atom:updated>2006-04-25T10:24:18.033-07:00</atom:updated><title>Welcome</title><description>&lt;div xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml">Welcome to the Achieve Your Dream Coaching Blog!&lt;/div></description><link>http://achieveyourdreamcoaching.com/blog/2006/04/welcome.html</link><author>Maureen</author></item></channel></rss>
