1. Loving Yourself is part of Valentine's Day
too! |
|
When people think of Valentine's Day, images of two
people sharing some sort of moment comes to mind. Couple's
everywhere look forward to this holiday with either anticipation or dread,
depending on how they are feeling towards each other at that time. But what about all the single
people? Where do they fit into the Valentine's Day season?
People often forget that Valentine's Day is a celebration of
LOVE, and that includes loving yourself. Therefore every person should be joyfully partaking in
this holiday, regardless of their relationship-status (single or
together, happy or troubled). In fact, if you don't start every day by
loving yourself, you'll have a hard time truly loving others around
you.
I came across a great quote by Lucille Ball the other day:
"Love yourself first and everything else falls into line. Most
professionals who help others for a living (therapists, personal coaches,
ministers, youth workers, etc.) agree with this quote wholeheartedly.
Because the more you love yourself, the better you feel. And that
translates into a more confident self-image that other people inevitably
notice and are attracted to causing endless opportunities for you to
develop new and interesting friendships which may become very important
over time.
So as Valentine's Day approaches, take a moment to
reflect on this: Do you take
time regularly to appreciate who you are and what you've accomplished in
your life? If not, spend time on
February 14th loving yourself as
well as those around you.
For some ideas about how to
regularly take time to love yourself and others (after all, the essence of Valentine's Day
should be celebrated EVERY DAY, not just in February), please see
the Resources section of this newsletter. |

trapped, or restless? Are you

goals to reach?

lives....and then I partner with them for a 5-6 month period to
develop strategies and support them as they make those dreams and goals

DO SOMETHING NEW IN 2008!! DARE TO
ASK WHAT
IF..?
Host a Workshop Party for friends or
colleagues -- invite 6-8 friends or colleagues to your home or
another agreed upon location. This workshop is a wonderful opportunity to
get to know other people better, learn about their dreams, and find ways
to make them happen!
Schedule a Dream Workshop for your staff -- Reward your
hard-working staff by giving them a morning off to attend this workshop as
an opportunity to re-visit the important goals and dreams they've been
putting off. Your active concern for them personally will go a long way to
inspire loyalty, and increase performance, in whatever role they play
within your company or organization.
Arrange a Focused Dream Workshop for your
business, organization, or ministry -- Instead of having a normal
staff meeting, plan a morning to have your staff ask "What
if....?" -- then dream big goals for your business, organization, or
ministry, and see what happens within the next year!
What will you get
out of the workshop? * An understanding of the difference
between goals and dreams * Find out your personality type and see how
it relates to other personalities * Contemplate the question,
"What if? * Review the dream achievement process * Discuss
fear and why most people let it control their lives * Discover what
happens when you choose to commit to a dream * Learn three simple
things a person needs to make their dreams come true

4. Resources |
Finding ways to love yourself and others is actually simple all it
takes is a desire to do so, a pen or pencil, and something to write on
(preferably your calendar). Studies have shown that when people actually
write something down, they are more likely to do it. Here are some
suggestions to make the essence of Valentine's Day a regular part of
your life:
When you wake up
each morning, take a second to choose 2 things you love about
yourself then brainstorm as you are brushing your teeth about
how to use one of those things to celebrate who you are, and positively
affect the lives of the people around you.
Buy yourself 2 gift cards. Keep one in
your wallet and keep the other in your car. When you are having a rough
day and need a pick-me-up, use the gift card in your wallet to remind
yourself how special you are. Use the other gift card as a give-away
anytime someone you care about is having a rough time and needs to be
reminded of how special they are.
Choose to invest in making a long-time dream or goal come
true. Your goals and dreams are just as important as anyone
else's. No matter how many commitments you have, you must make time to
focus on yourself regularly. Love yourself by giving yourself permission
to invest in something you've always wanted to do. A great I love
you gift for someone else is to invest in making their dreams or goals
come true. Best yet is to find a joint goal, and invest in it together.
On the 1st of every month,
block out six hours on your calendar 3 for yourself, and the
other 3 to spend time with a friend or a loved one. That dedicated time
is a valuable way to love yourself and others, enhance relationships, and
give yourself a well-needed break from the craziness of life.
When you go to bed every night, reflect
on all the things you accomplished that day. Whatever you achieved,
or took a step towards achieving, is something to be proud of. If someone
you know accomplished something significant, leave yourself a note to make
a point of telling them how proud you are of them for that
achievement. |
