Do You Know If Your Life Is In Balance?

Do you address the issues and find balance in your life?

What are the key areas in your life that you may want to set goals and address concerns around?

I see 7 Key Areas of Focus in life that unless all are in alignment can create the space of being out of balance. I would like to share with you the 7 Key Areas of Focus that may entice you to look deeper into your life and create a more balanced life.

Key 1: Self & Contribution – Who you are matters in the world! How you contribute to others and yourself is your greatest asset. Your attitude in life will either move you forward or hold you back. How do you talk to yourself? Do you feel you are making a contribution in your life?

Key 2: Work & Career – What you to do to make a living matters! What matters is how much you enjoy your work & career. You may want to evaluate your thoughts and feelings around work. Are you satisfied? Do you want to make a bigger difference?

Key 3: Relationships – Who you connect with matters! Have you ever stopped to really think about all the relationships in your life? How do you see those around you? Have you clearly defined your circle of friends? Are there relationships you would like to improve? Are there relationships you may need to let go of because they are toxic?

Key 4: Money & Finances – How you honor your money & finances matter! Have you taken an inventory of your money and finances? Do you avoid looking because it may not be where you want it? What is your income? What are your debts? What is your plan to manage your money & finances? Do you even have a plan?

Key 5: Spirituality – Your sense of meaning and purpose matter! Do you know the deepest parts of you? Religion, nature, art, meditation and pray are just a few ways to express spirituality. What is spirituality for you? How do you bring out your best through your spirituality? What do you do on a regular basis that shows your faith spiritually?

Key 6: Health & Fitness – How you feel in your body matters! How do you take care of your health & fitness? What do you do regularly that takes care of your health? How are your food choices? Do you get enough exercise and sleep? How do you envision your health and fitness? How do you handle stress?

Key 7: Fun & Recreation – How you have fun and re-create yourself matters! When was the last time you feel you truly had fun? What were you experiencing that made it fun? Have you made a list of all the things you love to do? When was the last time you did one of the things on your list? Is it time to do something fun and re-create yourself?

When I have balanced myself in these 7 Key Areas of Focus I find that my life runs a lot smoother.

I take responsibility for my life, my actions and my outcomes. As I am more balanced I enjoy myself, my career, my relationships, my finances, my faith in spirit, my health is important and I have a lot of fun!

Where are you at in each of the 7 Key areas of Focus?

Mentoring Yourself

Mentoring yourself is another great tool. Do you know that it doesn't really matter how others see you as much as it matters how you see yourself?

Other people might be able to look at you and share that they can see your greatnesses. They can truly believe that you are compassionate, powerful, courageous and more. The challenge arises when you do not believe these qualities for yourself. Letting go of many opportunities because you say to yourself "they are not talking to me" or "I will let you know if I see anyone like the customer you are looking for". Are you looking inside yourself to see it that opportunity is for you?

What qualities are you going to commit to awakening every moment?
If you are not willing to acknowledge your qualities then you are not likely going to achieve your potential in life. Making it almost impossible to achieve your goals and dreams. Today is the day to mentor yourself. Mentor your old beliefs and transform them into a powerful voice inside of you that serves you moving forward. Awakening a quality to serve you and practice everyday until you are transformed into believing in it.

How are you going to mentor yourself so you are coming out a winner everyday?

Mentoring yourself takes effort and consistency. Your ability to do this begins and ends with your mentality. Your mind set is to be about serving your purpose and moving forward in life. What will you choose to tell yourself everyday? If you have negative self talk then notice that it is not moving you forward. Putting away the hammer and choosing to take action to mentor you can shift future generations.

As you mentor yourself you create space to mentor others. When you enjoy you then people enjoy being around you. Every contact with another human is an opportunity for a "Mentor Moment". How many "Mentor Moments" are you going to create today?

Confidence

Do you struggle with confidence? Who do you see when you look in the mirror? Is the person you see strong and confident? Do you like the person you see?

A few steps to boost your confidence.

Think about a person that you see as confident and act, talk and walk like them. Model their mannerisms and behavior. It works for them; it will work for you!

Smile a lot! This doesn't mean putting a silly grin on your face. It does mean smile more when you walk down the street, when you meet people and just be happier in general even if you are not feeling that way.

Are you prepared for situations? Are you prepared enough to meet any challenge that may come up? Are you prepared for the meeting, the presentation, the job interview, when you meet someone for the first time? If not, get prepared. The more prepared you are the better confidence you will have.

Learn how to say no to people. Don't be afraid, there is nothing to be afraid of. If you think you want to say no to someone say it. People may not like to be told no, but they will respect you for standing up for you.

No one else can be confident for you! This is your job! You are meant for greatness so step into your confidence today and teach others how to be confident. You may be the person someone else brings to mind to model!
