Misaligned

You have heard it said, your actions tell more about what you believe than what you say.  That is a true statement, but what if what you think you believe and say you believe don't line up with your actions?  What if they are misaligned?  You truly believe that if you exercise and eat healthy you will lose weight.  But rather than monitor your eating habits and going to the gym, you eat what you want and don't exercise.  You truly believe that spending less money than you earn is a wise way to live.  But you still find yourself caught in credit card bills.  Trust me I know what you are going through.  I've been there and if truth be told I'm still there in a few areas of my life.  You want to change, but how?  You want to do things differently, but how?

First of all be honest with yourself.  You aren’t doing what you say you believe.  Then get someone to challenge your actions and beliefs.  Someone on the outside can help mirror for you things that you aren’t doing that conflict with what you say you believe.  This is why coaching is so powerful.  In coaching, your coach helps you get to the change you desire by asking you questions that challenge your current way of thinking.  Also, a coach helps keep you accountable in your commitment to line your behavior with your beliefs.  It is through this shared partnership that you can start to see the desired outcomes in your life.  Lastly, it is important to consistently do those actions so you they become like second nature to you. Imagine how you will feel when you are doing what you believe!  It’s empowering!  Start that journey today.
