As we wind down 2012 and windup for 2013, I have been doing some deep reflection on 2012. So, I started to make a list of the things I have done this year, it turnsout a long list. The revelation… 2012 was a HUGE year! Not just getting a lot done, which I did, but in transformation in my heart, mind and actions.
I had set the intention for clarity and passion for 2012 and I got just that and more! With clarity and passion, I got direction, then action and now, results! Things are moving and wonderfully growing… then come the miracles, the ‘unignorable’ serendipity and the out-of-the-blue requests. I read these as small miracles and confirmations, subtle glorious messages. This is how it happens, at least for me.
The Stages; Desire, Dreaming, Deciding, Doing, Playfully Doing and more Doing, and all the while with Deep Gratitude.
In 2013, I will be offering this formula in a workshop called Love Your Life; DreamSetting and Love Your Life; DreamDoing. Think about joining me on January 9th for a Free Live Workshop in New Bremen, Ohio at the Lock Keeper’s House Sign up here: https://zealcoach.com/life-coaching-events/ Look for more information about this same workshop in webinar form in February 2013.
For now I encourage you to make your list, “What I accomplished in 2012: “
Then, imagine that anything is possible, and name the most amazing thing that could happen in 2013. (Marianne Williamson Quote)
This is how it starts.
Below is my list as a message of gratitude to you and the Divine. New awareness of what makes my soul quake. I found the motivation, the heart, the peace, the love for myself and my life again. A huge miracle! Learning to release anger and resentment around issue of my own creation The realization of wanting to live with Zeal and using that desire to fuel my work and my goal for living with purpose and meaning. Amazing what one word and thought can do, liberation! My new office and the wonder of creating a business that speaks my heart and living the changes I want to see in the world Creating a new brand and services, with website, blog and facebook presence with the lovely and talented help of Maryna Smuts and James Graves I received the gift of working with 15 beautiful students on career coaching as they transition to life of their own creation. I presented to more than 300 other students. I hope my message, of finding their unique gifts and dreaming for their future, plants a seed in their soul! My fabulous friends and working relationship with Camp Joy and the hundred or more clients I worked with through them this year. What an incredible place truely living and walking the talk of changing people’s lives! The Dayton International airport. An incredible crew! My lovely new and old friends at Crown Equipment Corp. Nova Creative and their awesome owner, Rose Shultz. She transformed a workplace and her life all at the same time. I watch in awe. Two miracles of watching great friends and clients recreate their lives and finding deeper more fulfilling love, after life scattering divorces. Proud as a mama bear, with my soulful son, Kyle Shell, graduating and going off to college. The bonus is watching him discover and be the man he is. In order for me to survive this transition, I was blessed with the insight to choose the excitement and not the sorrow. Thank you to Michelle Trotta for your beautiful work. Getting back in nature, my most natural spiritual practice; kayaking, walking the dog; wind surfing, tubing, ziplining, climbing, hiking, meditating and, yes, sometimes hugging trees. The life changing experience of getting Certified with Martha Beck and her sage teachers, everyday, I gain more depth of understanding. The infinite gifts of my Martha Beck Coaching Tribe, my soul-sisters and brothers, who are loving the world into kindness and healing. When I am with you, I feel like I am in a diamond field and I can’t pick up all the gems fast enough. My world expands in infinite Technicolor.
