Hold That Thought

49.1%


Every Thursday I share three useful things to help you turn overthinking into expert thinking. Here are this week’s picks:

1.

As I write this newsletter, we are 49% through 2023

How are you feeling about that? Are you where you want to be?

If you've tried SMART goals and found them not your style, maybe try making a PACT instead?

Also know that not having goals is an option too. I've helped people make that approach work well for them, so I know it's possible!

Claire Pedrick has been instrumental to my learning and development as a coach. If you're interested in becoming a coach, or embodying a coaching mindset in your interactions with others, I cannot recommend the book Simplifying Coaching enough — here's where you can get your signed copy

3.

What is flow and how to get into it: ​the 4 questions you need to ask​. A fantastic post by Leah Smart on LinkedIn

Extra thought:

As you can see, I don't have it all figured out either. But I do have an accurate picture of how it's going, what's worth celebrating, and what I need to do next. Please get in touch if you'd like that clarity for yourself; I can help!

Until next week,
Kim
