The Strong Suit Consulting

Here is an interesting concept I pulled from The Queens Gambit the other night. Having a team behind you will always make you stronger. We know this, but we still find our selves working it alone. Struggling, muddling along in life, unsure of the next turn and direction to go in. A mindset instilled in us from a different generation. Protect yourself and your loved ones by not being seen. Don't give any information away about yourselves. To share anything would make you weak,... exposed, vulnerable. But why? We are all crippled with this mindset. We need to change. And change we will! Message me so that you can join my team! Let’s work together to build a remarkable life.

Personal Growth and Mindset - What are you trying to do? There are challenges with everything in life. You just have to choose what type of challenges you are going to have. The challenges that are a result of not trying, being lazy or angry and anything negative is no harder to deal with than the effort required to garner the results of the opposite positive life. I will even wager that you will find yourself spending the same amount of time working on them.... You simply have to choose what you are going to spend your time doing. On the one hand you can work hard at justifying where you are today, or on the other, you can work hard at building a better tomorrow. Choose your hard. There is no situation that can't be improved. So let's improve on whatever life you are currently living!

What is a Life Coach and what can they do for you? A Life Coach is a Wellness Professional. Life Coaches aid their clients in improving their relationships, careers, and day-to-day lives. ... Life Coaches help clarify goals, identify the obstacles holding you back, and then come up with strategies for overcoming each obstacle. Through working with me, my clients have rekindled their relationships, learned innovative parents techniques, found passion in their careers, happiness and fulfillment in their lives and have rediscovered their purpose. My purpose is to give you a boost! Reach out to me to find out how I can specifically help you achieve what you desire most.

Behind every successful person is a pack of haters One of the hardest things I had to do was define my boundaries. What this meant for me was identifying people, places, habits or things that were holding me back and start to make inroads of reducing the frequency that I experience them or shedding them off entirely. To walk my own path without bad influencers has been rewarding and life-changing!

I found this free character survey by the Via Institute to be a fantastic tool in determining not only what your top traits are but how to use them to your advantage. I invite anyone interested in learning more about themselves to take the survey and I will personally go over the results with you. Now, how's that for value?...

I hate to say it but, You are your own worst bully. Your inner self-talk goes on and on like verbal diarrhoea and a lot of it isn't that nice. It reminds you of every failure, every embarrassment, and every shortcoming you have made and plays it back to you on rewind over and over again. It makes sure to let you know that you aren't as smart as you think and is hard at work making supporting arguments for each, ultimately constructing a very skewed sense of self-worth. We le...arn to do this at a young age and then carry the behaviour forward as adults. So how do we stop this insanity? The first step is to become laser sharp at identifying when it is happening and secondly is to replace those negative statements with ones that are far more positive in nature.

The brain is a powerful thing and will create what you tell it to! I remind myself that there are 16 solutions for every problem. As I start to list them, I find it super easy to pick one that has the most desirable outcome. There is no "can't" in my mind, only the decision of which way I will turn at the next corner.

When faced with an overwhelming challenge ask yourself these questions to start moving forward immediately. What part of this situation IS in your power to change? What options do you see for yourself? What have you done in the past when faced with a similar challenge? ... What worked? Who may be able to help you? What’s the first thing that comes to your mind? What option are you leaning toward? There are on average 16 solutions to every problem. If you are stuck I would be happy to help you find them. :)

Tina and I woke this morning to breakfast in bed made by our son Colter. I love random acts of kindness!
