| Hi!
I hope you are doing great :)
I've been extremely busy lately finalizing my coaching program and it should be ready early next week. I'm extremely excited about this!!
Before that, there was something I wanted to share with you. Something that came across my path many, many times and recently I had it again.
I was talking very enthusiastically to a friend about launching my new coaching program and about starting a website for my artwork (I love to paint, I paint watercolors, also with Chinese ink, and what I love most is to paint for someone in specific, I connect with this person at an intuitive level, a text and an image come through and I put it on paper, this painting is then very unique for the person concerned).
So I was talking and this is a very good friend of mine. All of a sudden, she starts asking me: Do you think this will sell? Why did you set up a website for your artwork? Isn't painting more a hobby for when you're retired?
And I was really transfixed, I didn't understand. Why didn't she share my enthusiasm? Why did she try to pull me down?
And I have to admit that this is really a trigger for me, a voice I heard many times in my life, the undertone of these questions is: who do you think you are? Why do you want to stand out?
I told her that the day I heard the doctors say that I had 6 months to live, I decided NEVER, EVER to bury my dreams again.
So when I drove home, I could clearly see from which place these comments came. She feels partly unfulfilled in her life, she is controlled by thoughts of how one should behave in life. And all I could feel was compassion for her, compassion for the jail she is putting herself in.
At the same time, I was determined to not let those comments drag me down or ruin my day.
I wanted to share this to remind you that when someone criticizes you, it ALWAYS tells you more about them, it tells nothing about you.
So never let anyone else take away your enthusiasm, your zest, your sunshine!!!
You are here to show the world you're unique gift :)
Wishing you an awesome day!! Love, Barbara. Certified Life Coach
