Coaching Corner: Hmmm, what do you do?

Coaching Corner: Hmmm, what do you do?

Happy Friday! It's early and not the normal time that I write my blog, coming dangerously close to not writing anything as my mind is not cooperating and my creativity seems to be at a standstill. Here’s the thing--there would not be a problem at all if I chose to forego this week’s blog. Except for one thing ...

Writing my blog each Friday is an agreement that I have made, both with Ohio REALTORS and more importantly, with myself. Waking up this morning, I knew that if I just flaked out, I would not feel integrity within myself. So, here we are--looking at agreements and how we feel if we do not keep them.

This week, place some awareness on your agreements. Don't make them if you don't want to. Extremely important, if you make an agreement, (whether it's with someone else or yourself), keep the agreement. If you need to change the agreement, communicate that change--even if it's with yourself.

Making, keeping and consciously changing our agreements are critical to our integrity. If we are out of alignment with our agreements, we run the risk of feeling bad about ourselves, whether it's on a conscious level or not, it still impacts!

Here’s to agreements! Cheers!
