Make It Happen

My Challenge Today:

Make it happen …

By Bernadette Kathryn, LMT, IHLC

Some people want it to happen,

some wish it would happen,

others make it happen.

~ Michael Jordan

How can I make it happen? What do I need to do to make it happen? What if the odds are not in my favor?

These are all really good questions and I have to admit that I don’t necessarily have the answers, other than to try! There have been many things that I have wanted to do and was not ‘sure’ I could make it happen. And, I just ask myself “what’s the worst thing that could happen?” The only way I will know for sure is to give it a shot and try. Life doesn’t have any guarantees, other than taxes and death, they say ~ whoever they are. Well, maybe the occasional heartbreak or two.

So, if we go on the premise that there are no guarantees in life, all we can do is try. It does help to develop a strategic plan of action steps in pursuit of our goals and dreams. A strategic plan of action might include consulting with a professional who is experienced and accomplished in that which you would like to do, such as the image suggest ~ an architect. Our world has become very specialized, I was even scolded once by a client because “our society rewards those whose specialize, not generalize”. That is certainly something to think about … I specialize in Integrative Health & Lifestyle Coaching … I help my clients identify and remove the road blocks that prevent them from achieving their health and fitness goals. I have been asked to be the “quarterback” for my clients, to help them navigate the myriad of information related to their particular health issues and create a plan of action to bring them back into the health balance their are seeking. I love my job, it is interesting, challenging and rewarding!
