Coaching By Lynn

Newsletter

 August 2004

Volume 1, Number 1

“True passion is intoxicating and invigorating, soothing and sensuous, magical and mystical.  I just thought you should know what you’re in for.” From Tazo “Passion” Tea Bag
 

 

 This newsletter is published to share information that I have found to be valuable and powerful in my journey of personal growth and living a life where anything is possible.  It is an expression of my life’s purpose which is to share my wisdom and inspire others.  My coaching practice focuses on coaching women who want to create a life filled with possibilities and realized dreams.  I have learned that you have to stay focused on what you want in spite of the frustrations, challenges, and moments of self doubt in order to achieve the life you value.  I hope you enjoy and find inspiration in the information that I am sharing with you.    
   
  PASSION
Special points of interest:

 

Passion is the spark we were born with and is ready to ignite into a bonfire when our spirit connects with what we are meant to do.

 

Your life’s work is to discover that purpose and get on with the business of living it out.

 

The only daring you need is the courage to find and follow your passion.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

I am enjoying the warm summer days of August in the northeast and as I do so, I realize that summer will not be here much longer.  September will bring a time of transition.  Children going back to school, businesses focusing on completing projects and goals before the end of the year, and individuals energized after summer vacations looking to infuse that energy into all areas of their lives (personal, professional, relationships, health, financial, and fun).  During this time of transition, how about thinking of ways to bring passion into your life and work?   

Passion is the connection we have with an idea, a talent, or another person.  Passion brings out our creativity in whatever we do.  Passion is the spark we were born with and is ready to ignite into a bonfire when our spirit connects with what we are meant to do.  Think of all the times in your life when you were doing something that you were truly passionate about – as a child, a teenager, a young adult, five minutes ago.  Were there times when you felt joyous, fully engaged, connected with yourself and others? Take some time with this.  Let you passion memories percolate.  Write your passion memories in your journal or list them on a separate piece of paper.  What is the common theme(s) to the source of your passion?  That common theme(s) in your passion memories can lead you to your life purpose - your reason for being on this earth.  Wouldn’t it be wonderful to live each day doing what you were meant to do; with passion?

Sarah Ban Breathnach says that if we are to lead deep, rich, fulfilling lives that are anchored in what’s important, what’s precious, what’s real, so that our souls can soar; passion must fuel our flight.  Believe it or not, we are meant to wake up each morning exhilarated, with a smile on our face and we are supposed to go to bed at night saying “Thank you for the gift of an incredible day.”  Passion in what we do every minute of every day allows us to be exhilarated every morning and thankful every evening.

We all have choices to make each day on how we are going to “be”.  How about adding passion into each choice you make?  What would it take for you to be passionate about your job?  What would it take to bring passion back into your personal relationships?  When we have passion in our lives we have more energy, enthusiasm, and vitality.  When we are doing what makes us happy, it often gets done faster and with greater ease.  When we are doing what we love, who cares how long it takes?  My wish for all of you is that you live your lives on purpose, with passion, and that all your dreams are realized.

  The Top 10 Ways to Create a Great Life 
  1.  Schedule time daily to be quiet and listen to your spirit, intuition, and wisdom. 6.  Practice extreme self-care.  Your health, personal growth, and happiness cannot be sacrificed for others or their agendas.
  2.  Go with your strengths and gifts.  Focus on using them to live everyday with passion. 7.  Trust what you know and what you have learned in life.  Take the advice and recommendations of others with a grain of salt.
  3.  Balance your life by choosing carefully how and to whom you give your time, energy, and resources.

8.  Share your skills, knowledge, and wisdom.

 

  4.  Surround yourself with people who support you unconditionally, respect you, and honor your choices.  9.  Everyday participate in something that brings you joy, requires creativity, and feeds your soul.
 

5.   Focus your thoughts and energy on what you want rather than what you fear.

 10.  Give gratitude everyday for your gifts, opportunities, and experiences.

How to Realize Your Dream of Financial Independence

 

Free Teleconference October 28, 2004,

7:00 pm - 8:30 pm EST

In May I attended Dream Coach® University in Tiburon, California.  I am now a Certified Dream Coach®.  I was trained in a step-by-step process to define and live your dream.  There are ten keys that open the doors to realizing your dreams. 

Here is where my passion comes forth.  I think that all women should have dreams – big dreams, and also realize those dreams.  As women, we so often support our family and friends achieve their dreams.  How often do we allow ourselves to dream and then ask for the support to achieve those dreams?  We are very busy caring for and supporting others that we often do not take the time to investigate what are we passionate about.  What is your life purpose?  What are your dreams and what are you doing about it?

I offer a free complimentary coaching session.  Call (516 565 5361) or email me at (lynn@coachingbylynn.com).  Let’s start today to create and realize the life of your dreams.

  ABOUT COACH LYNN
 

My mission is to support women discover their life purpose so they can live their life with passion, fulfillment, and abundance.

 As a coach my style is to create a safe space built on trust and mutual respect.  My desire is that in that space my clients feel free to explore who they are and how they want to live their life.  I am curious and seek to learn more about my clients.  I will ask questions to understand and expand the client’s awareness of self.  I listen to hear my client’s true voice.  Together we plan strategies to accomplish goals and realize dreams.  I manage my client’s progress and hold them accountable to take action toward their goals and dreams.  Successes are always celebrated.

 I have been coaching women since 2003.  My credentials are:

  • BA degree in mathematics,
  • MBA degree. 
  • Professional coach training is from Coach University (www.coachinc.com ), an accredited coach training program through the International Coaching Federation (ICF),
  • Certified Dream Coach® (www.dreamcoachu.com), 
  • 20 years of corporate managerial experience for a Fortune 100 company, and
  • President of a family philanthropic foundation.

Coaching is an ongoing professional relationship designed to support you in producing the results you want in your life, career, and business. Coaching focuses on your present and future.  It's an interactive partnership designed to support you as you transition from where you are to where you want to be.  In a typical session you might share a current challenge or opportunity. I will listen, ask questions, make observations, and offer resources when appropriate. I will support you as you clarify your vision of success, explore possibilities, determine next steps based on your priorities and values, and move into action.  

The coaching is done via telephone.  Our calls are confidential and scheduled at your convenience while you remain in the comfort of your home or office.
