"It's the wanting. Pain comes from always wanting things" - Aldo Moltisanti, played by Ray Liotta in The Many Saints of Newark. Moltisanti is serving life imprisonment for murder. He has no future, so he probably finds it easier than most to accept his situation whilst contemplating Buddhist philosophy. In coaching, we work on creating goals and how to achieve them: career goals, business goals, life balance goals, health & fitness goals, performance goals, money goals. So can you have a burning desire to achieve your goals (the wanting) and be happy at the same time? Happiness (or maybe contentment) comes from within. When we align ourselves as much as possible with our values, we're able to live authentically, and that means having a strong sense of self - and confidence that we're on the right path. We often talk about "enjoying the journey" towards your goals, but what does this mean? It means being mindful of the moments in your life *right now*. It means making a conscious decision to engage in the present and focus on process. I remember reading a post here on LinkedIn, that emphasised the philosophy of "I'm already here". This means letting go of the idea that your happiness is conditional upon your circumstances. There's no progress without wanting. But it doesn't have to be painful.

For years, my life felt mediocre: "Decent job, decent pay, exercise on and off, watch TV at night etc." But instead of actually filling this void and solving the problem, I would turn to things like "a glass of wine on the couch" or "extra sleep on the weekend" to help. But the truth is, that while these vices might numb the heaviness for a short while, the feelings always come back. “I don’t like feeling this stressed. My life doesn’t feel great.” If this resonates, what you need is not another long weekend. What you need is tools to help you feel better in your current life AND actually make your life better. You need to look at what’s really important to you in your life, and switch up your schedule so that you are ACTUALLY doing those things. -This could be spending quality time with your husband at night instead of scrolling IG. -This could be waking up twenty minutes earlier to exercise. -This could be making a dinner plan in the beginning of the week instead of feeling super stressed each evening trying to figure it out. You also need to improve the way you take care of yourself. (Exercise, good sleep, proper meals etc.) This not only makes you feel great, you also have more energy to tackle your responsibilities. (And actually, the busier you are, the more energy you need to juggle it all.) Once you start feeling good in your current life, you can make a plan to reach your big goals. Then, the entire journey is exciting, because you’re not going from a bad life to a good one, you’re going from a good life, to even better! PS: If you are done drinking wine and waiting for the weekend for your life to actually improve, life coaching is for you. Together, we make small tweaks to make your current life/schedule feel manageable and enjoyable. And then we map out and accomplish your big career and life goals: whether it be starting a business, earning more money, improving relationships, more quality time with your kids, prioritizing your health etc. Schedule a free consultation call to discuss your goals with me, get personalized guidance, make a plan to achieve them, and decide if coaching is your best next step: https://lnkd.in/et49SMi4

As an EQ life coach, I often find myself supporting others in their journey towards self-discovery and emotional well-being. In the next few posts, I am sharing with you my own areas of growth and self-reflection. In this post, I would like to share a pattern I noticed within myself – a pattern of being a "family pleaser." The fear of disappointing my loved ones often led me to prioritize their needs as this brought me an element of joy. By being there for extended family members, I recognized it made me feel a deep sense of being valued. However, this pattern recently came to a head when I had to decline a wedding invitation from a niece due to my health priorities. Despite communicating my reasons with my family and receiving their support, I found myself struggling with overwhelming guilt and self-doubt. The pain of saying no echoed within me, triggering feelings of inadequacy and fear of rejection. It was a challenging moment that forced me to confront the importance of setting boundaries and prioritizing my own needs. Through this experience, I not only discovered the power of self-compassion but also the strength that comes from vulnerability and authenticity. I learned that saying no is not a rejection of others but rather a crucial act of self-care and self-love. This realization allowed me to embrace my worth and needs, fostering a deeper connection with my true self. Self-development is an ongoing adventure that never truly ends. Just when we think we have worked on one issue, another opportunity for growth presents itself. As I continue navigating this journey of growth and self-discovery, I invite you to join me in embracing self-compassion and setting healthy boundaries in your own relationships. Remember, your needs are valid, your feelings matter, and it's okay to prioritize yourself. Let's walk this path together towards emotional empowerment, inner peace, and the joy that comes from honouring our true selves. #beljeetsingh #innerinteractions #eqcoach #sixseconds #eq #6secondseq #selfcompassion #selflove #selfcare #mentalhealth #mindfulness #mentalhealthawareness #healing #selfacceptance #loveyourself #anxiety #selfawareness #mentalhealthmatters #selfworth #wellness #therapy #meditation #motivation #healingjourney #gratitude #youareenough #wellbeing #kindness #personalgrowth #bekindtoyourself 

“Life Work Balance & Sunnah” How Will You Align in your book? → asked my client’s+editor Habibur Rahman Since, he has this question; it's obvious you have to. Let's clarify this. 🟢All those not I learned from a book. 🟢Or that I got from a particular source. 🟢The research actually took over 3 years. 🟢From maybe 35+ different YT & FB videos Ok, my dear reader. Give a closer look at these 2 stories. 📌Story No#1: “Eat That Frog” by Brian Tracy Have you read “21 Great Ways to Stop Procrastinating and Get More Done in Less Time” by Brian Tracy? Then you know he emphasized tackling your biggest task first. Pretty smart, huh? But did you ever link it to Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him)? If yes, Masha'Allah. You're quite smart. If not, don't worry. Let me connect the dots. The authors of self help books, life coach, and motivational speakers altogether shout about 👉Waking up early. 👉Hitting the hardest task. 👉Reaping the rewards all day. Don't they? So, what’s this got to do with the Prophet? You must know the popular Hadith, Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) prayed “O Allah, bless my Ummah (in their work) in the early part of the morning” (Tirmizi #1212). Why did he pray like this? 👉To starting strong, with Allah’s blessing. 👉To complete your toughest job smoothly. 👉To be free rest of the day & concentrate prayers. Isn't that similar to your today's tip from gurus tackling your "Eat That Frog". Make sense? 📌Story No#2: Isolation/Going into the Cave You've heard many times that the Quran was first revealed to Muhammad (peace be upon him) when he was in the Hera cave. Yeah, you've heard. But have you ever tried to connect it to this 21st century? Most probably not. And now, you have a question, “How is it connected?” Ok, don't stress your head too much and turn your hair 50 shades brown. I'll tell you. Tony Robbins is a popular life coach and he mostly used this phrase “Going into the Cave” to motivate his students for isolation and deep learning. And lots of motivational gurus and coaches echo him and say more than thousands of times… 👉Disappear for at least 6 months. 👉Cut off all the social connections. 👉Don't talk even with your friends. 👉Spend 12 hours daily. Learn a skill. 👉You'll find yourself on a higher level. 👉Everybody offers you a starting job. 👉Then lead life on your own terms. Sounds familiar? So, what did the Prophet do in the Hera cave? - Engaging in idle pastimes? - Simply contemplating natural beauty? No, he did the same that today's motivational gurus tell you. 👉Disappear from society. 👉Connect with Allah. Understood? Which story 1 or 2, you love the most? P.S.
