My dear, dear friend,
At the beginning of a year we traditionally set goals for the year coming.
It has no use to set goals, to change habits and to pressure yourself to 'become' successful or fulfilled.
This only adds pressure and stress to an often hectic life.
More powerful and life-changing is this question:
Who are you becoming as a human being while you are trying to reach your goals?
Self-acceptance & self-love are key in the process of becoming a true leader. And we are all natural born leaders.
Accepting yourself completely, deepening compassion for your flaws and so-called failures are the place where the magic happens.
I have witnessed clients' lives change drastically through going deep in self-forgiveness, self-acceptance & self-love.
And it might look simple but it is not.
It takes courage to shine your love & light in every dark corner of your soul, to question every thought and belief that shaped your life until now.
True leadership, true success is built from a powerful heart and and an unshakeable mind, knowing your inherent worth as a human and helping others to see their worth and beauty always.
So in 2018 when things aren't going the way you visioned or expected, when you are dealing with pain, suffering or challenges, do NOT resist suffering. Do not run away from the pain. Dive fully into it.
Do not be ashamed of tears, for tears are the witness that you have the greatest of courage, the courage to face your pain and all the untrue stories about yourself and to wash them away, the courage to rise above all that was holding you back until then.
It is with great love that I wish you a 2018 where you'll discover the true power & the leader within yourself.
As always, loving you deeply, Barbara.
PS For those of you interested in personal guidance by me in 2018, I have availability for one or two new clients at this time. Send me a message with the subject: 'Interested in guidance' and I'll get back to you asap.
