What We Appreciate, Appreciates…

By Karen McMahon


“I will not let anyone walk through my mind with their dirty feet.” – Gandhi

You know how something can happen that you find distasteful and you replay the events and words in your head over and over again. You actually feel the upset as if it is happening now; and yet it has already passed – it is now just an illusion, a story in your mind. You are on automatic pilot, ‘living in this past experience’ while the joy of the present moment is being lost. Perhaps you are driving down the road, not even noticing the sunshine, the color of the trees and the beautiful day or silly chatter and laughter of the kids in the back seat.

What we appreciate, appreciates. In other words, what we give our attention to grows in value.

So are you problem-prone or solution-centered? It is the difference between choosing to BE in a negative, low energy, victim mentality or in a positive, energetic, opportunity driven mentality. Every situation is an opportunity for us to stretch, grow and learn. Do you find the opportunity in each ‘problem’ or ‘challenge’ that you face or are you stuck in the details of the story and the pain of the hurt.

A Life coach partners with you to help you overcome obstacles; to not only consider new perspectives and see the opportunity in every situation but to use every situation to attain your own dreams. With our support and encouragement, you clarify your dreams, turn problems into opportunities and consistently take steps to achieve your life’s goals.

“There are no problems or challenges, only opportunities.” – Bruce Schneider, iPEC Founder
