Right Compass to Rise Above Hard Times

Sitting around with friends, family and others comparing notes on how bad the economy is and what it has cost one can only bring more despair. I know what it is like to be challenged financially and with life threatening cancer more than once. I have learned that within the bad there is the opposite – good!

Taking responsibility for what I could control while using the support of physicians, CPA’s, coaches, friends, family and faith in a Higher Power created new opportunities. What I could control were my thoughts, feelings, actions and beliefs. Intuitively I listened to my inner compass. And, yes, not all of the recovery was uphill, but I knew where I wanted to go. It makes a big difference when we know where we want to go rather than visioning the worse.

Our inner compass takes us in the right direction. It doesn’t lie and give us false readings, unless, of course, we damage the workings with false reasoning that we are stuck, we are too old, too young, and nobody wants what we have to offer. That is a compass “out of order” and yet convincing enough to lead us down the wrong path. We weren’t meant to follow someone else’s compass. Our compass is true. Getting caught in the negative thinking is destructive.

“We can’t solve problems by using
the same kind of thinking we used
when we created them.”
– Albert Einstein

Tips to Succeed Using Your Inner Compass

• Take an R&R (rest and recuperation) from the daily news. Today I went on the Internet purposely looking for good news. The popular news websites are flooded with stories of despair and tragedy. Killings, unprecedented unemployment, warring factions, people losing their houses due to foreclosures, plane crash, floods, etc, etc. etc. Take control of what you watch and put in your mind!

• When you awake in the morning notice what your first thoughts are. More than likely they are a continuation of what was on your mind before going to sleep. For example, if you are a TV watcher before retiring and the scenes were of violence, you will more than likely wake up with those scenes in your mind. Think something positive before retiring and sleep on it. Notice the difference in your attitude when you awake.

• Whenfear, doubt, giber jabber, swirls around in your brain without a sense of direction and seeing the worse the result is you create more grief. You are in control of your feelings and attitude. I am not suggesting that from the worst of times you jump for joy and say, “Hallelujah.” It is being with your sorrow while being an opening for directions from your inner compass to where you are headed. Acknowledge this situation and ask:

o What can I control?
o What am I willing to let go that no longer serves me?
o What are my resources/supporters?
o Where do I want to go from here?
o Why is that important?
o What tiny steps can I take to get me from swallowing in my grief to answer what I am called to do next?

• Hard times are awakenings to your individual calling and self-leadership. Farrah Fawcett won’t let herself be a victim of cancer. She took control of what she could and released the rest while cancer was warring in her body. In her demonstration of self-leadership she was a leader for others with a life threatening disease to not let the disease define who they are.

• I promise that if you want bigger and better for yourself and those in your life, Right Track Coaching programs are targeted to train you to get your heart’s desire. Check out our upcoming events here. Our website outlines the programs and investment to create financial abundance and success.

• Remember: Anything is Possible – You are the possibility that makes the impossible possible!

Recommended Resource: “What’s Your Body Telling You?" by Steve Sisgold

This book reads like a detective story where the body conceals and reveals many of the answers we need to feel more stable and confident in today’s uncertain times.

What’s Your Body Telling You? will teach you how to raise your Body Awareness Intelligence (BQ) to successfully navigate your way with concentrated focus and confidence, discerning truth from fear and avoiding dangerous knee-jerk reactions. You will learn to breath into your emotions, release stress from your body and maintain your physical and emotional health.

As a result, your career, your personal relationships and your financial situation will become easier and more enjoyable. Enjoy!!
