Posted on October 11, 2017 by Hannah Truong, One of Thousands of Career Coaches on Noomii.
Sharing my takeaways as a coach on how to bring back that fire in your belly that makes you feel alive and passionate.
In my work as a Coach, it’s important that I help my clients to come up with practical solutions in order to deal with the cycles of energy they’re under. Luckily, because of what I do, I was also able to identify what was going on in my personal birth chart that was contributing to my own stagnant energy at that specific time.
The outcome? The birth of these 4 C’s to help you reignite your inner flame and passion to live a purposeful and fulfilling life
1. CREATE
“Creativity is a great motivator because it makes people interested in what they are doing. Creativity gives hope that there can be a worthwhile idea. Creativity gives the possibility of some sort of achievement to everyone. Creativity makes life more fun and more interesting.” ~ Edward de Bono
We all have a unique expression and even if you don’t think you’re creative, I’m here to tell you that you are. You’re a soul that incarnated into a unique human vessel and that in itself is creative!
Creativity is simply taking an idea and evolving it into another new form. It could be an article, a painting, a new way to solve a problem, a new solution to get your kids ready in the morning, even Facebook started out as an idea then was put into “form”.
When you’re not creating you’re denying an entire part of your brain and your right to express yourself as an individual. Creating gives you purpose, excitement, a sense of ownership, and it ignites that inner flame!
What will you create?
2. CONNECT
The phrase, “No man is an island, entire of itself” by John Donne speaks volumes.
Life is about connecting. It’s about forming relationships. It’s about having human contact and giving someone a hug or having a deep conversation that captivates your soul. Connecting helps you move out of your head and into your heart where your fire is waiting to be lit.
When you get in those ruts and the cloud of depression starts to roll in, most of us withdraw from connecting which is the one thing that usually makes it worse.
Your heart chakra is yearning to engage – who will you connect with?
3. CONTRIBUTE
“Don’t ask yourself what the world needs; ask yourself what makes you come alive. And then go and do that. Because what the world needs is people who have come alive.” ~ Attributed to Howard Thurman
Everything you do affects someone else because we’re all connected and we’re all here to help one another.
What can you contribute and give back to society? What can you do that will help humanity? This is not about being Mother Teresa; this is about being your wonderful, fabulous, quirky self and showing up despite all your insecurities, fears, and limited beliefs in order to contribute to something larger than yourself. Doing so will give you a sense of community and help raise your self-worth.
How will you contribute?
4. CLEAR
It’s important that you’re continually checking in with yourself and clearing out anything that’s no longer serving you. Yes, it’s time to cancel and delete any “static” in your life. It’s important to say no.
“Respect yourself enough to walk away from anything that no longer serves you, grows you, or makes you happy.” ~ Robert Tew
When things feel stagnant, energy gets trapped and doesn’t flow with the natural rhythm of the Universe – that’s the problem, you’re stuck! Something needs to be removed in order to make space for the new. This can be actual objects around your house, toxic people in your life, or old limited beliefs that have kept you prisoner in your mind for too long.
What will you clear so that new energy has space to come in?
So, the next time you feel yourself falling into that zombie-like funk, break out this tool kit, address these 4 C’s, and begin to take inspired action.
When you do your world will be brilliant and dazzling just like a diamond!
