Know that Nothing is impossible!

I am 56 years young and I know that my very best years are ahead of me.

The last 3 years I have seen exponential personal growth in me.

I’m investing in me in exactly the same way I’ve invested time, energy and money in everyone else, it’s my turn now.

For me …

QSCA with Christy Whitman (became a certified life coach).

Feminine Power – Claire Zammit, (needed to unleash my feminine power).

Abundance Now – Lisa Nichols.

Writeandspeak 2019

I KNOW that nothing is impossible for God and the universe. I’ve asked, I’ve believed and I am receiving. When I was told a couple of years ago to be ready for the delivery and be ready to sign for it. I shifted up a couple of gears.

‘Show up in the potentiality of your future’ ‘Be that women now’ Embody it now’ ! (Thank You Claire Zammit).

So I started to re think it through, dream it, write it down and feel it, send out the vibe and wait for the timing and rendezvous. Too early and you don’t know what to do with it. The right time and voila! There it is, everything in sync just as it should be.

The right people just pop up at the right time, the right tribe, all supporting and sharing.

Don’t give up peeps because …

#Its never too late

#Work in progress

#Epic adventure

Go get yours and if you need some help to navigate, give me a call.

Too good to keep it to myself.

Have a super blessed day xxx

And sharing my latest picture, drum roll please … Ta dah!!!!

Pretty good ain’t it …. LOL. Loving it.

Stay the course even when the odds are against you.

So this evening sports history was made. Tiger Woods is back. He is again the Masters golf champion for the 5th time.

He said he kept the focus and presence. Keeping his emotions in check and being in the moment. He hasn’t won a championship for some 14 years nor a green jacket for 20 years.

During that time most of the sponsors fell away, the newspaper and social media mocked him. He experienced a point of deep shame. But today with his skills, his gifts, master time, personal commitment, practice and persistence he roared home to success. Hugging his son as a father in the same way that his father hugged him after many championship when he was alive.

What lessons to learn and draw from this? love him or not, I’ve got to salute The Tiger, who stayed the course, remained dedicated and blocked out the noise.

It’s only over when you say it is.

Remember …. It’s NEVER too late.

Happy People Don’t Have Dead Grass!

 

I was watching a film over the weekend and the main character’s sister became obsessed with her dry front yard.  Every day as she pulled up in the car her heart would sink because of this yard.  She would often snap at her husband yelling ‘have you seen the yard? It’s dry, why don’t you ever water the yard?’  He had the answer,  it was winter everyone’s yard looked dry or dead in the winter time. She mused on this and in the spring she asked the same question.  This time it wasn’t winter and the grass in the yard looked dead. If you want the grass watered why don’t you do it yourself ? !!!!!  Not quite the answer she was looking to hear, but if you get where this is going he was absolutely right.

You see in this life we are the keeper of your own ‘grass’, your heart, your soul, your being.  It is our responsibility to feed our grass in a special way and pay attention to what makes us happy in this life.

We should,  in fact we MUST be the custodian of our very own happiness.  We must do the things that fill our souls with joy, bring out the inner child and make us smile broadly and laugh out loud just because.

Each and every day we must treat ourselves as if our lives are golden.  We must find and understand the value and purpose for our lives. We often complain about the rain but without rain nothing would grow.  Without the rain there would be no fertile soil.  We often need a good old soak and wash, water cleanses so many things. Having compassion and appreciation for our selves is paramount in this life. 

Know how to support you. Your values, your self worth, your self esteem, your integrity.  Give yourself a big old hug often, make it tight and heart filled.  If we understand this premise and give ourselves the best, it teaches other’s how to treat you too.

The moral of the story …. at the ending of the film my girl took to watering her yard each and everyday.  She had no idea that something as simple as watching water flow, hearing the sound, feeling the cold drips upon her  skin could be so refreshing and give so much pleasure.  In no time at all, the grass grew lush, green and pretty.  It made her smile, it lifted her spirts. She quickly realised that sometimes you literally have to take things into your own hands.  Make a decision and take action.  It’s not up to others, like your partner to make you happy. They can enhance your happiness, they can add to your happiness, they can bring out what you already have however, they are not solely responsible for your entire happiness.  And to be honest it’s a great big ask of someone in the first place and secondly then to hold them accountable for our happiness especially when we don’t ourselves know what happiness looks like for us.

So know what makes you tick, know what makes you truly happy and get a little of it on the regular.

Make this day a day to you from you.

Crazy but true

It’s been a crazy 7 days of travel for me and I’ve never felt so energised. It’s really early and I can’t sleep. When you are living your passion it’s not work it’s what gives you joy.

So this time last week I was in Abu Dhabi at the ST Regis Hotel (pure niceness), giving a key note speech on living YOUR best life. This experience for me was a de ja vue moment for me because I was reminded, this is where I saw myself at age 25 only to realise then that there were others on the journey with me and I simple couldn’t realise that dream then. My aged mum, an autistic brother, a husband and 2 young toddlers.

Fast forward 30 years and here I am. Me as I am take it or leave it, no qualms no stress just an authentic product. Life gives you experience and you gain wisdom. It’s been an incredible time of learning.

Yesterday was IWD and this time I was hosting 430 people mostly IBMers 120 in the room and the others via live stream.

The theme #Balance for better. The keynote speaker was Kiko Matthews (check her out, she is so comical as she shares her experience). From adversity to a world record holder.

I also celebrated 30 years at IBM last week. 9 different jobs across 4 functions. Client services, Finance and Planning, HR and now Global Mobility. I have colleagues now friends all over the world what richness this adds to ones life.

What have I learnt?? You can have it all but not all at the same time. Have a goal and know you will achieve it but there are others in this journey with you and your dream may have to take a back seat whilst you help others to thrive and grow and then you need to be ready to pick up where you left and cook on gas! Be prepared to reinvent yourself and adapt.

I realise in 30 plus years I have the most unusual and eclectic mix of people in my network. Really it looks crazy on paper.

So what does the next 30 years look like, well my colleagues created a 30 year video for me when kinda made me cry, and they asked the question.

Well by Gods Grace healthy happy and looking after some grand children. Travel, a book, more painting, sharing my resources skills and expertise. Walking on the beech playing netball (yes it’s possible Rose and Sue in my team are over 70 and still rocking it) 👌 enjoying afternoon tea, spa days and other such delights.

Technology is galloping at a super pace so the world as we know it is in for a major shift. Get up to speed or be left behind.

I have a cohort of mentees the longest one over 15 years, you see I was doing the mentor and coaching long before it became fashionable.

I will watch them grow and flourish and they will over time reverse mentor me as I age mostly gracefully but there a bit that will go disgracefully, why not?? I will continue to nurture my friendships because they are golden and I cherish them like fine china in that I don’t want to damage or break them. But know if they become negative or toxic I’m not afraid to let them go. We all owe this honesty to ourselves.

Well Happy Women’s month. Thanks to the gorgeous scrumptious men in my life who hold that space for me to be me, no criticism no judgement just love.

Have a super wicked weekend. I’m out with 2 of the youngers today they are reverse mentoring me. So today I’m Auntie Janet and it’s going to be pure laughs. I won’t be driving all food and drink is on dem. What a fabulous life.

Peace 😘

Carpe Diem

I’ve loved this term for as long as I can remember. Carpe Diem is latin for Seize The Day! Make the most of the present. I add to that, Make It Count.

This is the day that the lord has made and we really should rejoice and be glad in it. We are alive.

Take responsibility and own your day. Set the intention that no matter what, it’s going to be a great one, and if you can’t go for great go for good it’s a start. That way we have more fulfilled days, winning weeks and thriving months.

Join the movement … Nothing but the best will do. Because I am fearfully and wonderfully made.

Stay blessed.
