Creating the Commitment: Stretching your Goals
A recent thought on goal setting inspired this post. Imagine if your commitment levels were set by how much you were stretched by your goals? As a life coach, I work with highly driven individuals. Some of whom want to achieve success at all costs. What surprises me the most is not how high they set their goals, but how committed they seem to be to achieve them. It would also seem that the bigger the goal, the higher the level of... commitment. The higher the level of commitment, the more creativity and energy that is created as you take steps to achieve those gigantic goals. I have ten questions that I would like you to ask yourself about your goals. My guess is that right now, your goals are far too small to release the motivation inside of you to truly reach your full potential and achieve greatness. Is your goal clearly defined and specific? Do you have a solid understanding of your own motives and behaviours and why it is you want to achieve this goal? Do you understand the full implications of the sacrifices required to reach your desired outcome? Can you visualise what it would look like if you were to achieve your goal? Do you have a long-term plan that is created to achieve the goal? Are you doing something every day that contributes to achieving your goal? Are those around you in your everyday life supportive of you achieving your goal? If you achieved your goal, would you make the lives of those around you better? When you think about your goal, do you become worried you won’t achieve it? Do you have the skills you require to face up to the tasks needed every single day that accumulate in your achieving your goal?
Remember, these questions were thought about in the context of long-term goals that are meant to inspire you to take action. Set huge goals that you only dream that you can achieve. Set yourself a long-term plan to gather the experience, knowledge and skillset required to chase down your dreams and scale every obstacle on the way. Motivation will flow through you like never before when you set goals that take you outside of your comfort zone, and inspire thought on a completely new level of thinking.
How do you set your goals? Are you setting them right ones? Or they are simply another form of limitation that you are setting on yourself? Get in touch to speak about how we could transform the way you think about goal setting, and ultimately transform the way you live your everyday life.

Three ways to increase your work ethic
As a life coach, I’ve worked with people across the world who have had success bread into them. The funny thing is, the people who reach out to me for executive coaching? They’re already extremely successful. They’re asking “How can I be more successful?” Working with highly engaged and passionate people gives me a great understanding of human behaviour and what motivates us. But it also allows me to see where most people are being held ...back. If there were three ways to increase your work ethic that were simple, would you employ them in your daily live to increase your motivation and efficiency? Luckily for you, there is. Set the right goals Are you sure you’re working towards what is right for you? We often set our goals based on our belief on what would make us feel successful. The trouble is, we are very fluid as people and our opinion is moulded and shaped as we have new experiences that make us question what we truly believe. These experiences don’t have to be major (though the ability to change after serious life events is often the “blessing in disguise” we always speak of when something tragic does happen), it can just be a result of passing time and maturity. The way you can increase your work ethic with your goals? Re-write them! Take the time to consciously think what it is you are working towards, and rewrite your life goals to ensure they are what you truly want. Set up your environment for success One thing that really helps a lot of my high-performing clients? When they wake up, they’re prepared themselves for success. Their home. Their office. Their lifestyle. It’s all calculated and planned. They have taken control of their environments, and set themselves up for the day they truly want to life. And they’re extremely more productive because of it. Make sure that you prepare for every day. Write down a to-do list the night before. Prepare your meals for work the night before. Get up early and create a great morning routine. This could instantly increase your productivity ten-fold. Surround yourself with the right people Who do you surround yourself with? Are they supportive? Do they have the same ambitions as you? What are your common interests? The highly successful people that I coach? They’re not down with people who aren’t on their level. No matter who they are. Old friends? Family members? If they’re not playing the same game? They’re out. Take control of who you surround yourself with. Understand it is your responsibility to yourself that is important. Loyalty to others only goes so far, especially when the people you are being loyal to are potentially the people who are keeping you down.

Your brain is over 7 million years old and its split into 3 smaller brains. The reptilian brain, the monkey brain, and the leadership brain.
The reptilian brain (amygdala) has a primary focus to survive and when you perceive a threat it fires of your patterns of fight or flight.
The monkey brain (limbic) is our relationship brain and it looks for connections but it gets easily distracted and struggles to focus on any one thing it's constantly chattering away to itself and if ...it asks questions that create doubt it will feel threatened and call upon the reptilian brain to get ready to run or fight.
The leadership brain (neocortex) visualises into the future, creating and building a better world for itself and others it is our logical brain that can also solve problems in creative ways.
Successful entrepreneurs live in their leadership (neocortex) brain and know how to control their monkey brain while keeping their reptile (amygdala) asleep. However if you are carrying around unresolved issues in your personal or professional life (baggage) it's hard to do as your monkey chatter keeps on waking up your reptile brain and SHUTS DOWN the neocortex (leaders brain).
Once you live more of the time in your leaders brain it is only a matter of time before you become way more successful. Call Stuart - 07825 599340 stuart@stuartdowning.co.uk www.stuartdowning.co.uk

Self - awareness& Self -development ; Two of the same ? Self-awareness and self-development are both parts of the same package. As we learn more about ourselves, we are slowly tearing back layers of mental barriers that we’ve attributed to our experience we call life.
Our limitations are our own making. Looking at those who we believe to be successful in society, they are extremely self-aware. They have developed a true (authentic or congruent) image of themselves: their stre...

When We Don’t Love Ourselves, We Can’t Be Loved By Someone Else When we don’t love and accept ourselves fully, we can’t ever have a great relationship or a happy life.
Our partner may whisper, “I love you so much” and we won’t believe them. We’ll always be looking for evidence that they are secretly losing interest.
... Did they call us when they said they would? (If they didn’t, it’s because they don’t love us.)
Did they initiate sex, or cuddle like they used to, or hold our hands when we walked down the street? (They are losing interest. They’ve met someone else. I’m less desirable than I was ten years ago.)
We can’t tell them our secret feelings or fears, because it will push them away.
We feel like we “aren’t good enough” to date our crush, or we settle for someone who is “safe” or “fine” but who doesn’t make our heart leap with joy.
We don’t trust our partners (they aren’t telling the truth). We think they are cheating (where was she last night?)
We carry around the pain of never feeling good enough to have the kind of love other people experience. We doubt ourselves; we doubt our partners; we doubt love.
We let challenges demoralize and deflate us, and it’s not long before we realize we’re a much smaller version of ourselves. We won’t ask for a raise; we’ll stay in dead-end jobs.
We’ll lose weight and feel fatter than ever. We give up on our health, thinking it’s too hard or takes too much effort.
We’ll look for quick fixes to make ourselves feel better: a new haircut, a one night stand, a bottle of bourbon, a brownie sundae.
But none of these fixes fix us at all. They leave us feeling lonelier, emptier, sadder.
And we will remain that way until we stop looking for other people to give us the love and care we yearn for and deserve.
After all, why would someone else love us, if we don’t think we are worthy? Call Stuart -07825 599340 stuart@stuartdowning.co.uk www.stuartdowning.co.uk

When is a relationship over ? Most people I have coached or treated were in relationships they knew were over for a year or so before they actually ended it.
This is really common. It happens for many reasons: Fear of leaving something. Fear of being alone. Guilt of hurting someone. Hope that it will get better. Not being sure if it’s you, or if the relationship really isn’t fixable. Not wanting to be the one who ends it. Thinking you can change someone. Not wanting to live ...

Getting the utmost from life coaching Stuart Downing - Professional Life & Business Coaching-Anxiety, Stress,Confidence To create value from life coaching , the client needs to make space for it in their life. Set aside time and set aside current projects and distractions, in order to focus on your scheduled session.
Coaching is more likely to reap the rewards you are looking for when you are brave, candid and even outspoken. Be willing to tell your coach everything, nothing ...is too small or large. If your coach ends up knowing more about you than almost anybody else, that is usually a desirable outcome. Be ready to brainstorm, be candid if you experience difficulties in the coaching process, be prepared to communicate your feelings fully in your safe, confidential environment.
Own the coaching, giving your life coach the opportunity to assist you to create your own ideas for solving problems, inventing your own strategies for reaching your goals. One of the main uses of coaching is to trigger your enthusiasm and unleash your personal brilliance. This is more likely to happen when you take responsibility for your choices.
Effective life coaching reinforces the cycle of discovery, intention and action. Following through on your intentions will probably reveal new insights that, again, you can translate into intentions and action. Each time you move through this cycle of discovery - intention - action, you create new value and new outcomes in life.
In daily life, we can all be guilty of forgetting to lift our eyes to the horizon, to the long term, comprehensive vision of what ultimately we want, the big picture. Often in life, we get lost in the details of daily to-do lists, we see the trees not the forest, the most urgent tasks instead of the most valuable ones. By meeting with a life coach, you can prevent this outcome. Use your life coach as your dream-catcher and goal magnet. Speak your short-term and long-term goals. Speak your life purpose, your dreams and your passions. With your life coach you can create a life plan - a detailed long-term vision of what you want to have, do, and be for the rest of your life. Ask your coach to write down your dreams, keep them in his consciousness and keep bringing you back to them.Then fulfil those dreams by taking action.
Many of us work and live in places where no one asks us what we want for the short-term and long-term future. And even when we start to say what we want, there's often nobody to listen.
What a gift it is to meet with a coach whose job description is to hold our dreams as sacred creations! Call Stuart -07825 599340 for a free telephone consultation stuart@stuartdowning.co.uk www.stuartdowning.co.uk Skype Coaching available - please enquire
