[O.W.W.L. Success Tip] Releasing the weight of clutter

The last week of the year is a great time to assess the cost that clutter has in your life and to do something about it so you start the New Year fresh.   I’m not talking about just messy house or messy office. I’m referring to the financial clutter and the clutter your head as well.

O.W.W.L. Success Tip: When your financial clutter and mental clutter are gone, you create the space to have what you do want. (Click to tweet)

clutterClutter is anything that gets in the way of you being your most powerful, productive, and serene self. With financial clutter, you may not know what your bills are or how to pay them. With mental clutter, you may be confused or overwhelmed. With emotional clutter, you may have conflicting emotions or commitments.

Because I know that clutter interferes with my quality of life, I do several things regularly:

  1. At the beginning of each work day, set intentions for that day
  2. At the end of each work day, clean off my desk and prepare for the next day
  3. Have a place for everything, and put everything in its place (thank you, Grandma Mary!)
  4. Track my income and expenses weekly or more often
  5. Pay bills on the first of each month
  6. Hang out with people who love and support me; do not hang out with people who don’t
  7. Make complicated things simple (a gift I give to my clients)
  8. Have a “filing” basket and file once a month at least
  9. Practice what I teach in the Weight of Money Programs

What things can you think of the remove clutter from your life? Choose one at a time and take the next indicated step.

Have a decluttered week!

[My OWWL Journey] Update on my granddaughter

supportThank you to all of you who have sent support after my post of 12/04/14 on my granddaughter and our deep sorrow in learning that she is cutting herself. I had no idea how prevalent this was and how many of you had personal experience with this! I also appreciate the resources you have offered, and the hope that this will get better with therapy.

Here is the update: After much soul-searching, my husband and I offered for my granddaughter to live with us. She declined and instead decided to move back home with her mom. She is looking for a new therapist closer to home and is on an anti-depressant medication. I have been researching all I can about this disorder and have requested that the whole family get therapy in addition to her. I know that for myself, coaching and therapy have been invaluable for me to let go of wounds of the past and embrace wholeness.

With gratitude for your support and loving thoughts,

P. S. My birthday was last Sunday. My dearest gift is my family. My second-dearest gift is my clientele. Please let me know how I may be of service to you. Contact me at Janis@JanisPullen.com.

Success Story:

“I knew how to eat right and exercise, but I couldn’t figure out why I couldn’t do it and lose weight! I was exhausted from trying every diet or exercise program and always starting again with a different program tomorrow, or next week or after the holidays. I was so ready to lose weight and get my life back when I met Janis! Janis’ Ontological Weight Loss Program was exactly what I needed. She understands what is going on beneath the eating and she truly believes in her clients. I have lost over 40 pounds with the Ontological Weight Loss Program, and I’ve kept it off for over a year! Her program is what every other diet or exercise program needs to work for the long run. I would recommend Janis to anyone who wants to lose weight, find a fulfilling career or make any changes to better their lives. She has a gift and has given me more than I ever expected!”

[Current Weight Loss Journey] I’ve been noticing your patterns

breaking-free-of-old-patternsI have been noticing patterns with people for a long time. In coaching, the patterns make a huge difference in success or failure, depending on if they are empowering patterns or disempowering ones. I have been noticing patterns about people, even you if we coach together! 🙂

For instance, one of your patterns might be to be perfect in your food program and in your exercise. That pattern would serve you in your weight loss and maintenance.

On the other hand, one of your patterns might be to go for a while really well and then give up on yourself and slip back into old habits. That is the “zoom-eek” pattern (zoom forward and eek screech to a halt). That pattern would sabotage you in your program.

Another pattern might be to be really sloppy with adhering to your food program, not measuring, having too much of the wrong stuff, not eating enough fat or vegetables, not drinking enough water, etc. This is being out of integrity, again sabotaging your program.

Changing disempowering patterns requires you to notice them, distinguish whether they serve or sabotage you, and take specific action steps to change.

What are your patterns? How do they serve you? Or how do they sabotage you? Please notice your patterns and post them here. If they are sabotaging ones, please also post how you will take action steps to change them so you will be empowered in your weight loss journey.

Thanks!

Success Story

The most “WOW” part of Janis for me, is the ownership that she takes in working with you! She approaches the relationship as a “Partnership”, which means that she takes a “Personal stake” in your results. This approach inspires you to follow her guidance and do the work because you know that she cares as much as you do about your progress!

[Success Tip] Why you need to learn from the best Mastery Level Coaches

invest in yourselfI was at a Mastery Level Coaches training last year along with many of my colleagues, as we up leveled ourselves and our businesses with great educational content plus wonderful networking and sharing of ideas.  It occurred to me that this is really a great success tip for all of us:

Success Tip: Invest in yourself by investing in top-notch training and coaching.

First, obviously when we continue our professional education, we stay current and sharp with the knowledge part of it.  But even more, investing in yourself sends two powerful messages:

  1. The message to yourself that you are worth investing in and that you value yourself and your business.  This boosts your confidence and power.
  2. The message to your clients that as a wise leader in your business, continually learning and growing, that you are worth their investment in themselves as well.  This boosts their confidence in you and also in their decision to hire you.

What is the next place you can up level yourself through investing in your business, yourself, and your future?

Warm wishes for your success,

P. S. Coming Soon…my new book is in it’s revision stages: ‘Lose Weight for Life: 9 Unconscious Reasons You Can’t Keep the Weight Off and What to Do About It’. I’ll keep you posted when it’s done!

Success Story

Janis is a wonderful coach with real life experience to stand behind. Because Janis has been there, she understands the challenges and excuses that arise for everyone; thus she is able to motivate, encourage and guide her clients through their obstacles.

And somehow she always knows the right questions to ask in order to get to the real issue that keeps her clients in bondage to their addiction(s) and/or behaviors.

I am forever grateful to Janis for her commitment to sowing into my life and helping me reach my weight loss goal of 50+ pounds. I couldn’t have done it without her.

Thank you,

~ Melinda
