Goal Setting and a Compelling Future
Why the fuss?
Setting goals allows you to consciously make a choice of where you want to go in life. It concentrates your efforts, allows you to notice and handle distractions, motivates you, gives you an indication or measurement of where you are and most importantly helps you focus on what you want!
There are many goal setting techniques available today and I suggest you use the one or combination that get you to your desired outcome, goal, target, rose by any other name.

During my life coaching program I provide you with tools, techniques and learnings to assist you to set goals, to create a compelling future and to use this practically in your life.
Stress and Anxiety
Stressed?
You know that the word “stress”, as used by most people nowadays, refers to the consequences of a person’s failure to respond appropriately to actual or imagined emotional or physical threats. Let me rephrase that somewhat, Stress is your body’s way of responding to demand. It is a NORMAL physical response by your body to events and demands around you. It serves you when you need to react quickly in an emergency, or to keep you focused during that important sales meeting or to give you that extra push when studying etc.
Our wonderful body does not distinguish between physical and psychological events when it comes to stress. The stress response is can be the same whether you face a life and death experience, a busy schedule, a divorce or any of the millions of other things out there we can stress about.
Long-term or excessive stress can cause us health problems. Out of a stress perspective we are build to function as short distance athletes. We cope well with short bursts of stress with ample rest periods in between. We don’t cope well with long bursts of stress with no rest in between.
Do you really need examples of events that can cause the wrong kind of stress?
Social issues: Relationship Conflict, Divorce, Deaths
Life experiences: Employment changes, deadlines, job demands
And many other things
Anxiety
Anxiety is that unpleasant state you are in because of stress…It is the “normal” reaction to stress. As with stress anxiety is good in moderation but not in excess.
