Imagine you are in an excellent company.
Whether you are the owner or a worker, you see that as the company
succeeds by your efforts, there is a greater potential for fulfilling
work, more opportunity for financial reward, and increased job security.
You can more clearly focus on results at work that make a difference
for customers, coworkers, and the bottom line. Doing so brings fulfillment,
not frustration, to even a long day.
Remember that feeling when you first took
your position in the company? Excited about the opportunity, hopeful
for the future? Imagine feeling more like that each day when at
work. So much so, that the occasional thought of work when you are
not at work is not a burden and is focused on solving a problem
or seeing a solution that you bring back with you when you return.
Away from work you are clearly focused on and engaged with those
things that bring vitality to your life. Being mostly at peace in
your life, work and non-work support and compliment each other.
As more individuals gain this realization through your example,
everyone benefits, like boats rising in a tide.
Does any of this really sound
possible? We deny the possibility of such things in our life, but
coaching is a human technology that can direct us toward such possibilities.
Coaching guides us, inspires us, challenges us, and helps us find
the truth in life, that all these things are possible for most of
us. When we include ourselves in this possibility a whole new life
opens up before us. Dare to dream, and dream big, fulfillment in
our life comes from such dreams.
