Rock star, don't leap too far!

Firstly, congratulations on your brave approach to life! I bet you have had some adventures, and could share a story or two around the camp fire!

But I've got to ask - do your decisions to leap out of your comfort zone always result in you landing the right way up? Or do you sometimes have regrets?

If so, I'd love to share my life hack for decision-making with you.

The trick is to know WHEN to leave your comfort zone - AND it might not always be when you think.

Taking that big leap outside of your comfort zone isn't always appropriate either, despite what some motivational speakers might preach.

I believe that the trick to knowing when leap, and also knowing when to go easy on yourself and stay safe, is to understand your core values...

When you truly know what makes you tick and is most important to you, then the decisions you make will come from a place of self-awareness. In my experience as a Life Coach, these decisions are the most authentic and the most satisfying.

You can ask the opinions of as many people as you like, but at the end of the day, this is your life to live. And the only person who is qualified to decide for you, is YOU.

If you would like to learn HOW to discover your core values, and how to USE them for decision-making, then I have a new book that I think you might like.

Balanced and sensible

There is nothing wrong with caution, or with asking the opinions of others. But I wonder, might you be a bit bored, lonely, or frustrated with always being the sensible one?

There is a great big world out there to explore and you might be missing out on some great opportunities.

The trick isn't to throw caution to the wind and start being reckless - so don't worry!
