Balance the Struggle of Life | Lifestyle Coach
As Creator of my YOUniverse and as a lifestyle coach, I’m constantly struggling with balance. Life tends to pull us in many directions and give us lots of things to juggle. If you’re a normal person like me, keeping all the balls in the air while walking on a tightrope can be quite entertaining to others, but it feels and looks more like being a clown. The costume of putting on a front stage face to fit in with culture’s demands can be exhausting! My mood and emotions can change from one minute to the next. After all, everyone knows it’s easy for a clown to turn its frown upside down, right? Sometimes I’m able to fool others into thinking that I’m a master juggler and I’ve got it all under control, but when I drop a ball, reality always humbles me and reminds me that I’m a normal human being–aside from being a successful life coach.
Life was perfectly designed to test us and show us who we are being and what we are creating. Life demands that we know who we are and what we want to create. Its natural course is set to challenge us to align our actions with our best self BEFORE we reap the rewards.
As a life coach, I’ve spent five long years discovering the secret RECIPE 4 LOVE to help you create love in your life. Whenever you are feeling the need to balance the struggle of life, refer to these tips:
Lifestyle Coach Advice: The 1st ingredient is PASSION
First of all, it takes energy to create. So, you’ve got to take care of your body to fuel your fire. Love your body by nourishing it with good food, rest and fun! It’s unbelievably crazy how fun fuels the fire. Even though life takes a licking, you will keep on ticking. So, shut off everything on the exterior that’s been draining you and get down to the heart of the matter. Follow your heart and do what makes your heart sing.
Lifestyle Coach Advice: The 2nd ingredient is WISDOM
Life will make you decide what you REALLY want in order to create it. You need to know where to focus your energy. Where energy goes is what grows! The juggle of the struggle begins when you have a whole garden of “wants” and don’t want to weed the garden. For example, I want to create financial security AND promote my new coaching career. That means I need a job to pay the bills AND time or flexibility to do what I want. Since I want two things, I have to weed out spending time on things that won’t get me what I want. I had to cut out things that were distracting me from accomplishing my goals like the constant pull to escape my life through mini vacations, house maintenance projects, getting caught up in other people’s drama and pleasing people. Why do we care more about helping someone else create their dream instead of our own?
Lifestyle Coach Advice: The 3rd ingredient is WE
Life was never meant to be lived alone. How boring would life be if there was nothing that existed outside of our self? Just as an actor needs an audience, we need each other. We are not expected to have it all or know it all. The great diversity is what keeps life going. So, when you need help, just ask. Small miracles happen when we have the opportunity to serve each other. See the beauty in the balance of karma. When you help someone, someone will show up to help you. Realize that you are co-creating with ALL that is. Don’t get caught up in yourself. Open your mind, heart and arms and embrace all the resources the Universe has to offer.
Lifestyle Coach Advice: The final ingredient is ACT
Life forces you to take responsibility for what you are creating in your life by giving you physical proof. This undeniable evidence shows what you believe about yourself, who you are being and what you are creating. Stop reacting to pain and fear and intentionally act love in every moment. You can’t expect receive what you have not given, so make a conscious choice to act what you want to attract. Make the decision to rise above and be your best and life will meet you and greet you at the door with open arms.
Life is all about testing you to see if you’re ready to step into your shoes as a conscious creator. If you want to balance the struggle in life, then you need to practice making my RECIPE 4 LOVE and start making love in your life today.
