Are You Ready To Be In Charge?

Stopping Self Sabotage

Any of these scenarios sounds familiar ?

· You book tickets or make appointments to do something nice – and then consistently arrive late for such events.

· You need a day off for yourself, but when you take it, you end up committing to spend the day doing jobs for someone else.

· You want to lose weight, but keep eating the same volume/types of food.

· You want to get fitter, but there never seems to be enough time to exercise.

At times, we can be our own worst enemies.

Despite the desire to have/do something consciously, our subconscious has other ideas.

It seems no matter how hard we try to attain or achieve what we want, we struggle to get there.

In short, our subconscious and conscious mind are in conflict with one another.

And because our subconscious mind is outside of our awareness, it can be difficult to identify when we are self sabotaging.

However, the fact that you are not achieving what you want to is a big clue ;)

The first step is awareness of the choices you are making that are preventing you from getting what you want.

What do you want to achieve in life?

What is stopping you from achieving your goal?

If you want it to happen, are you ready to take on the personal responsibility to make it happen?

I AM THE MASTER OF MY FATE I AM THE CAPTAIN OF MY SOUL

Invictus - Poem by William Ernest Henley



G etting what you want out of life is your personal responsibility.

Are you ready to be in charge ?

Mental Health is Worth Talking About

by Maria Whyte • 12 January 2018
Did you know its Time To Talk Day on 1st February? https://www.time-to-change.org.uk/get-involved/time-talk-day-2018   "It’s easy to think there’s no right place to talk about mental health. But the more we talk about it, the better life is for all of us.   Too many people with mental health problems are made to feel isolated, worthless and ashamed. Time to Talk Day is a chance for all of us   to be more open about mental health – to talk, to listen, to change lives.   Wherever you are – at home, at work or up the top of a mountain! – have your conversation about mental health this Time to Talk Day" 1 in 4 people will experience mental health problems in their lifetimes....so why are we still struggling to talk about our problems? Some may view it as a weakness to seek help and support. I don't know about you but if I wanted to run a marathon for example, I would need some sort of training support to enable me to get through the challenge of it - does that mean I am weak for making use of the right support? Consider what it's like, knowing you are struggling with something and not getting the right support to assist you. Week after week does this make the situation feel easier or harder for you? Now consider what its like facing the same challenge in the knowledge that you have the right support in place. Support from a professional who will listen to what you have to say, be non-judgemental, respect you, value you, be with you every step of the way. Week after week, how do you think this type of support would make you feel? If it feels hard to consider opening up and sharing your troubles with a counsellor, is it really any easier having to go through whatever it is alone? Why not explore counselling to see what its like for you. What have you got to lose?
