[O.W.W.L. Success Tip] Are you following Fabulous and Fat-Free Forever principles in all areas of your life, even if you’re not overweight?

yoga-phrasesAs an Ontological Coach I was divinely-inspired in 2008 to create the “Ontological Weight Loss (O.W.L.): Your Once in a Lifetime Solution” programs, workshops, and books which address the nine sabotage patterns I have identified and how to shift them permanently. (Ontology is the study of the being of a human being, including conscious and subconscious behavior patterns.)

The sabotage patterns for weight loss are also applicable for other areas of your life: money, career, relationships, hobbies, etc. You may be running some or all of the sabotage patterns and don’t even know it. Some examples of sabotages that may be affecting one or more areas of your life are “Playing Small,” “Sacrifice & Entitlement,” and “Unmet Needs/Unexpressed Emotions.” I am giving a talk next week in Albuquerque to address some of these.

Ways to shift your sabotages: You may start to immediately identify your own sabotage patterns just by being present and aware. How do you hold yourself back? Where do you get off track? What is underneath that?

Once you know what you’re doing, an easy way to shift sabotages can begin with doing just the opposite. This method is simple enough, but it is often difficult to do without guidance, unless you have someone you trust to help you through the process. We don’t always recognize our own “stuff.”

Another way to learn to shift sabotages is by attending my talk, even if you don’t have a weight problem. In the interactive, engaging presentation (see below) taken from my signature O.W.L. methodology you will learn 3 secrets you can use immediately in order to stay fit, slim, and energetic forever. These 3 tips introduce you to the sabotage patterns that affect ALL AREAS of our lives, not just weight.

[OWWL Success Tip] Have you made an assumption?

assumption_quoteOne of my clients called for emergency coaching recently, worried sick about an upcoming circumstance and was afraid of what might happen. She was tempted to turn to comfort foods or to “retail therapy” to subdue her anxiety. I recognized immediately the sabotage of “making assumptions.”

OWWL Success Tip: “Assume” means “making an A** out of U and Me.

I asked this client to distinguish her interpretations vs. the actual facts, the emotions vs. the factual details as a newspaper reporter would report. We found that she was making many assumptions about what had happened and what might happen.

Once she stated the facts as a reporter would, she realized that she had over-dramatized and was living in an uncertain scary future that had not yet happened or might never happen (“what if…”) instead of living in the true here and now.

FEAR is an acronym for False Evidence Appearing Real. It appears real because of our interpretations and assumptions. Your practice of focusing on the actual facts will direct you toward serenity, peace, and empowerment. Drama queen can go back to sleep, and your food or money program can stay in integrity.

[Current OWWL Journey] Wisdom from my granddaughter about your business

My 2 granddaughters. They both give me so much wisdom.

My 2 granddaughters. They both give me so much wisdom.

I have been attending the National Arabian Horse Youth Championship, a week-long competition for ages 18 and under. My granddaughter did not make the cut into finals in her first three class events. She has more events to go, but her attitude has impressed me, and I wanted to pass her wisdom to you.

After every failed attempt, she had a “meltdown.” Disappointment, anger, sadness – a virtual tornado of emotions. After that passed, she spoke with other people (my daughter, for instance, who trains her) to find out what she did wrong. Then she got back on the horse and practiced more, in preparation for the next time.

Later, when I asked her how she was feeling, she said, “I can’t think any more about that class; I have others to prepare for.” So wise from a 17-year-old!

The mark of a winner is the ability to bounce back quickly from setbacks. In my book, my granddaughter is a winner, regardless of what else happens this week.

Where in your business have you made mistakes, got over them, and bounced back? Where do you need to learn this lesson?

[Current OWWL Journey] Good news with fitness and weight

My plan is working! I realized recently that I didn’t want to be old, fat, or frail as I age. (Yes, I will age, as we all will, but I don’t have to be an “old” old person. Do you know what I mean?)

Here I am at my first yoga lesson last week with my instructor, Sydney with the fitness studio Body Language, and my friend Karen Stilson.

Here I am at my first yoga lesson last week with my instructor, Sydney with the fitness studio Body Language, and my friend Karen Stilson.

So I shifted my exercise priorities from “comfortable and easy” to “fit, healthy, and strong.” You have probably seen some photos of me on Facebook: after my first yoga class and on a 3-hour hike. If not, please check them out. I also shifted my approach to eating priorities to reflect the new mantra of “fit, healthy, and strong.” In just a few weeks, I have noticed the definition in my triceps and the strength in my quadriceps improving. This morning as I dressed, I realized that the belt I wear often needed to be cinched in by two notches. My weight is also dropping. Good news, indeed, that my plan is working!

In our O.W.L. Weight Loss and O.W.L. Certification & Training Programs, we talk about our “Big Why,” otherwise known as our “Vision” in our Customized Strategic Design Plans. When I dropped the 50 pounds 20 years ago, my Big Why was to compete in Latin and Ballroom dancing looking fabulous with a younger partner. Now I want to take it to a new level, because my Big Why is to age with…you guessed it…fitness, health, and strength.

What is your Big Why in what you are doing, whether it be weight, health, business, finances, or anything else? I would love to hear from you about your Big Why.

P. S. Here are some resources for you to help you or your clients with their weight:

  1. FREE Training Class for a limited time: “Become the Ultimate Coach: Three secrets to extraordinary profits and results in your weight loss practice.” If you are a coach or a health practitioner who would like a booming business and would like to help people keep their weight off forever, this free audio is a MUST for your business!
  2. 2014 Coach Certification & Training Program began last week, but registration is still open, since the calls are recorded. For new coaches or experienced ones, we cover the four essential elements of a successful coaching business in depth. Check it out!
    1. Shifting the 9 unconscious sabotage patterns that keep us from success, for both you and your clients
    2. An authentic way to market and grow your business
    3. A healthy relationship with money
    4. Coaching support to help you be a courageous and powerful force in your business
  3. 9-Week Weight Loss Coach Training Intensive Home Study Course, “Become the Ultimate Weight Loss Coach: Unconscious sabotages every coach needs to know so clients can drop the weight forever.” This course solves the problem that even though weight loss coaches can help their clients with the nutrition and exercise and with short term motivation, they don’t usually know how to help their clients identify and overcome the unconscious sabotages that result in weight loss plateaus or, worse, regaining the weight their clients lost and more!

Success Stories:

kristenowens2testI enrolled in the O.W.L. Coach Certification & Training Program because, as a holistic nutritionist, I am already offering the facilitative portion of weight loss (food and movement). I know that the emotional side of weight loss is, I believe, the most important part of the process.

I found it very exciting to experience in the clients I enrolled within the program (one enrolled even before I started the program!) the transformations they saw in their weight and also in other areas of their life. How you do weight is how you do everything! These sabotage patterns really do work in every area of life: money, weight, health, relationships.

I was enrolled to learn how I can service my clients in a bigger way, but I also got value for myself. I was able to apply these tools into my own life even though weight is not a concern they shifted my thinking and how I see myself.

If you are thinking of whether you should enroll, I will make it easy for you…just do it! You will benefit more ways than just one. For you to be a fantastic coach you must transform yourself first! That will just happen and will be fun and easy at same time.

[O.W.W.L. Success Tip] Is what you’re doing today getting you to where you want to be?

Questions1Recently when I was getting coaching on reaching my own 2014 goals, my coach asked about my 5-year goals. I had been focused totally on one year at a time instead of reviewing my long-term project plan. Last week during my sabbatical, I asked myself some tough questions.

O.W.W.L. Success Tip: Start with the end in mind.

Here are the questions:

  • If I had one year to live, what would I do every day?
  • If I want to retire in 5 years, what would I do differently?
  • Assuming I want to retire, what would I do afterward?
  • If I were enough, what would I do more of? What would I do less of?

Have you asked yourself any of these questions? Did you make some different decisions?
