Start looking for the beauty in your life, if you want to feel better about it

Sometimes you need to change your perspective to see the beauty that is right in front of you!!

It may have you lying on your stomach in a wet mountain meadow to catch the magnificent blue of the gorgeous Gentiana acaulis.

It may mean climbing to a mountain top to find other ways out of a valley or gorge.

Or perhaps it just means looking at your life from a different angle to discover all is not bad. To be able to see how you can use what is good to change your life for the better.

Somehow we tend to focus on things not going well in our lives. Things not going the way we want to.

We grumble, bitch and moan about how dreadful our day is or how unfair life is treating us.

In doing so we focus on all that – in our eyes – is not right with us or our world.

In doing so we fail to notice anything good in there as well.

Worst of all, what we focus on gets bigger. More of it will appear into our lives.

Ever noticed how many red cars appear in your life when you contemplated buying a red car?

Focus on the positive and you’ll bring more positivity into your life. Your life and the life of those around you will be the better for it.

I learned a long time ago to focus on good, positive things in my life. Even when things don’t go the way I plan or hope. In those moments especially I look for the perspective that will not take me down a path of negativity.

Negativity has never brought anything positive or good into my life. It only brought fear, pain and failure.

Finding a different, more positive perspective so we can see the beauty in our lives is not always easy. But being able to do so has always made my day and my life better.

Be courageous and abandon your negativity. Find those different, more positive perspectives and discover what opportunities await you there!

As always …

Go Dare Greatly! #LiveYourOwnLife

Daring Guide & Coach

I guide people who are visionaries, change-makers, rulebreakers and those who feel stuck in the frustrating DO-ing of everyday life and work, into quiet, expansive mountains to help them refocus on what life for them is all about.

As we walk through mountains they reclaim their Identity, regain Clarity and take back their Power so they can re-connect with and live in line with who they truly are; with their essence.

The mountains are a magical place; uniquely suited to help us slow down, be present and get a different perspective on life.

A former project manager & consultant with 20+ years of experience, I am trained as a life coach and mountain hiking guide. I have a special gift for taking people on trails – in mountains and in life – they would never think of walking by themselves. I have a talent for both challenging and helping them reach heights they didn’t think themselves capable of.
