A Few Notes From Cheryl
Happy October!
Welcome to all of our new readers -- many of you have joined this
online community recently, so welcome aboard. Be sure to check
out the **f*r*e*e** early holiday gift below - this is a gift to all of
you, our
loyal readers. Hope you can join us and experience the fun of a
teleclass!
For those of you who received this e-zine from a friend and wish to
start receiving these newsletters each month, you are invited to sign
up at http://www.goalsinsight.com/Newsletter.htm .
This month's feature article below is based on two quotes that have
recently
come across my desk multiple times. I believe there's a reason
they came my way, so I'm sharing them with you.
From time to time, InSights
includes tips from featured guests to help you live your
desired life. Our featured guest below is Pam Condie, who
helps individuals and organizations organize their home and office
spaces. I have personally experienced Pam's services, and found
her to be amazing -- she is extremely helpful because she customizes
her approach to your specific needs in a non-judmental way that helps
you determine the best system for you. See below for some great
organizing tips to help you create your ideal space!
As always, we love to hear
your feedback, so please let us know what you think about having
periodic guest contributors in the future (and the topics you'd like to
read about to help you live your desired life)!
Enjoy,

Feature Article: What's in a Quote?
Have you ever had the same piece of information come across your desk
once, then twice, and maybe even a third time within a short period of
time? I recently had this experience, and these quotes came
to me during a time when several of my
coaching clients were experiencing similar challenges. After the
third time, I finally had an "aha" moment and
realized that the universe was trying to help provide me with
information that I could share with others!
I am sharing these two quotes with you with the intent that they
may be as helpful to you as they were to some of my clients:
1. "Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our
deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure. It is our
light, not our darkness, that most frightens us. We ask
ourselves, who am I to be, brilliant, gorgeous, talented and
fabulous? Actually, who are you NOT to be? You are a child
of God. Your playing small doesn't serve the world. There
is nothing enlightening about shrinking so that other people won't feel
insecure around you...as we let our own light shine, we unconsciously
give other people permission to do the same. As we are liberated
from our own fear, our presence automatically liberates others."
- Marianne Williamson
2. "Remember, no one can make you feel inferior without your
consent."
- Eleanor Roosevelt
These quotes are about playing BIG in the world -- going for what you
want and showing up fully in everything that you do. For
those of you who have worked with me, you know that this is one of the
biggest benefits to coaching -- living your life more fully, and making
conscious choices to create what you want!
I invite you now to take a moment to reflect on these questions:
- What part(s) of these quotes resonated with
you? Why?
- What's the biggest learning for you in these
messages?
- What is one thing you will do differently,
starting today, to
start playing BIG and letting YOUR light shine?
- Who will you ask to support you and hold you
accountable
to make the changes needed for you to start playing BIG?
As always, I love hearing what you'll do
differently as a result of these monthly
inquiries, so feel free to send me an e-mail
with your
thoughts!
Guest Article: "Clearing Our Clutter" by
Pam Condie
Clutter is nothing more
than postponed decision making. Here are some organizing
tips to get you started:
1. Decision making for getting
rid of excess stuff: Ask yourself, "Do I need it?
Do it love it?" If you get two no's, out it goes! If you
get one yes, it can stay.
2. Keep things where you use
them. If you need more than one pair of utility scissors,
for example, keep a pair in the kitchen, office and wherever else you
find you need them.
3. Donation station. A
box or large plastic bag in your closet will save you time and trouble
when you donate to a charity.
4. Launching pad. To
remember to take things with you when you leave the house, use a large
basket or even a section of the floor near the front door. If you
will kick it, you will be reminded to pick it up and take it with you.
5. Landing strip. A
place to put your wallet, change, glasses and keys when you arrive home
will save you searching when you are in a hurry to leave.
