Step up to the plate!

May 2, 2005

This week I attended a business women's networking
breakfast. Not only did I get to meet lots of great people
and start my day with a great breakfast - I also had the
privilege of being inspired by the guest speaker Anne
McKevitt.

Anne is a woman who does nothing by halves! As a coach I am
constantly supporting my clients to stretch themselves
beyond their comfort zone and to embrace change and
challenges. Anne's message was simple and inspiring ....
you cannot grow without venturing into unknown territory,
you cannot grow if you think the same way about life every
single day, you cannot create amazing outcomes if you stand
still and wait for them to arrive. If you feel fear around
taking bold steps remember that most of the fear we feel is
attached to things that have not actually happened (and
probably won't happen!) so feel the fear but do it anyway!
Step up to the plate and engage fully with life.

I have spent this week being bold and focussing on the
opportunities in my life not the obstacles .... needless to
say it has been a great week :)

I found this quote which sums this all up nicely...

"Far better it is to dare mighty things, to win glorious
triumphs even though checkered by failure, than to rank
with those poor spirits who neither enjoy nor suffer much
because they live in the gray twilight that knows neither
victory nor defeat. "
Theodore Roosevelt
26th president of US (1858 - 1919)

Have an inspiring week!
