TODAY’S COACHING QUESTION
Who is responsible for your success?
Great Day!
Our society is plagued with people suffering from what I call entitlement syndrome. They believe that somehow, somewhere, someone is responsible for filling their life with love, success, and happiness. This chronic condition causes them to become stuck in a cycle of frustration and mediocrity. And, if I asked them today’s coaching question – who is responsible for your success – I would receive a multitude of answers, none of which would be the right one.
If you had trouble answering today’s coaching question, let me give you a hint – the person responsible for your success is that stares back at you when you look in the mirror every morning…YOU. You are responsible for your success – or lack thereof.
Now, I must warn you – none of us is immune to entitlement syndrome. In fact if you hang around someone who’d been infected, watch out…this disease is quite contagious. You’ll know you’ve caught the entitlement bug if you start saying things like:”I would be happier if he would only….”; “I would have the career I wanted if they would…..”; “My finances would be much better if the economy weren’t so bad.”
But don’t worry. If you find yourself suffering from entitlement syndrome, your cure is only a question away. Ask yourself – what am I going to do about it?
I don’t have enough clients….what am I going to do about it?
I’m in an unhappy relationship…what am I going to do about it?
I an unfit and unhealthy…what am I going to do about it?
When you shine the spotlight back on you, you stop the blame game and focus on the solutions rather than the problem. Those solutions move your further away from your problems and closer to the life you desire.
