The upcoming topic will be "Don't take things personally"! I hope you will check back this week to see more!
This week the topic is Handling Tolerations. I am going to combine the blog posts this week so there will not be an additional post about Tolerations on Thursday. The fieldwork and challenge information are all going to be posted today too, so come back and work through things at your own pace.
After the last few weeks of working really hard on ourselves, this week I want to do something a little more simple but equally as important. We are going to work on clearing up tolerations from our lives.
Tolerations are the small things we keep pushing aside and not taking care of. They end up taking much more time and energy than they deserve. If we handle things right away, how much time, space and energy would we free up?
By not handling things right away, we end up wasting more time and energy on things than we need to. For example, when the mail comes do you go through things right away or do you make a couple of stacks then go through it and move a few things to another stack then finally get to the final stack and handle things? How many times do you touch each piece of mail before taking care of it? How much time and energy have you spent thinking about it, moving it and finally taking care of it? How much time and energy would it take to touch it once and be finished with it?
This is just one example of dragging out something and allowing it to become a toleration. Tolerations are things like household chores or repairs, your to-do list, or anything you are procrastinating about. What do you have on your list that you need to take care of right now?
Questions:
6A
Either journal about these questions or spend some time thinking about each one.
-What are you tolerating in your life?
- What does it feel like to have things in your life you know you need to take care of?
- How will it feel to take care of these tolerations?
6B
- Do you handle things immediately or wait until the last minute?
- How can you be more proactive?
- What will it feel like to take care of your tolerations before they drag you down?
- What will it feel like to not have any tolerations?
Fieldwork 6A:
List 10 things you are currently tolerating and take care of those items.
Fieldwork 6B:
When things show up in your life, start to take care of them more quickly. Don't let the list build up once you have taken care of your tolerations. Handle things one time if possible. If you did not complete your 10 items from 6A or if you list was longer, take care of those tolerations and any additional tolerations you may have.
Bonus Challenge topic 6-
Begin to notice the difference you feel when you take care of your tolerations. What does it feel like to take care of items you have been avoiding? How can you avoid having another list of tolerations in the future?
Quote: Thomas Jefferson- Never put of till tomorrow what you can do today.
Enjoy the journey!

5B-What is your light?
The upcoming week's topic is Tolerations. What are you putting up with and what do you need to take care of? Join me Monday to read more!
Last Monday, we began to look at what our special and unique qualities are. What our special light is! Now that we have started to see that we truly offer something special , let's explore how we share that with others. As always, you can start here, or go back to any of the previous blogs and start with one of those.
For me, I knew I had found my perfect fit when I found life coaching. Even though I have to work on my life just like each of you, I know my light is sharing my coaching with others. I began the blog to share this and to work with others to create their perfect life. When I am able to guide others through my coaching, it makes me smile inside. I want everyone to have that in their life!
Your light has to be yours alone so create this for yourself. Find out what you offer others and find a way to share that even more than you already do. Take what others feel you offer and what you know about yourself and create your mission, your vision and your purpose. Find and share your light!
It is interesting because one of the things I like best about coaching is to see how others progress and change. With the blog, it is hard to see that progress. For some of you reading the blog, something you may be missing from a traditional coaching relationship is the accountability part. With a normal phone or in person coaching session, you have homework after each session. The coaching session itself consists of me asking you questions based on your goals and I hold you accountable for your weekly progress. The reason for my bi-weekly questions and fieldwork is to mimic the traditional coaching relationship as much as possible. As a coach I feel each of us has the answers inside and my job is to bring those answers to light.
Your bonus challenge this week has been created to challenge you and to provide you the accountability factor while giving me the feedback I love the most. I hope you will take the opportunity to share with me!
Bonus Challenge-
Step out of your comfort zone and email me what is special about you. Tell me what your light is and what you commit to doing to share your light with others! Share this at coachgaye@redefinebalance.com
Questions-
Either journal about these questions or spend some time thinking about each one.
- What is your light?
- Do you share your light with others?
- How can you reach out even more and share more readily?
- What benefits would this provide you?
- What benefits would this provide others?
- How would it make you feel to share your light with the world?
Fieldwork-
How can you take what is special about you and embrace that? How can you share that with others? Do at least 2 things this week to share your light! HINT: One can be doing the bonus challenge!!
Quote: Mary Dunbar- We are each gifted in a unique and important way. It is our privilege and our adventure to discover our own special light.

5A- What is your light?
5A-What is your light? What is unique and special about you?
Last week we looked at what we admire in others and we worked on realizing there is plenty for everyone. With abundance, there is the freedom to create any life we want.
This week, I want you to look at what is great about you. What makes you special and what do you offer others? We all have unique traits that make us wonderful and much of the time, we don't even notice or realize how special each of us is. We have characteristics that are unique to us and we have skills and abilities that we bring to all of our interactions. What could be better than knowing what our special light is and being able to offer that to others? If we can each embrace what makes us special and we live our life giving that to the world, what a great world we would have.
Last year I went to the beach with some girlfriends and I got everyone to write down something special about the other women there. We all got to take home the notes about us and it was interesting because when each of us read our notes, there were such similarities in what each person wrote about us. We were given a reminder of what it is that we bring to others. Without seeing what each other wrote, it was amazing how certain qualities stood out about each of us. We all appreciated very similar things about each person. Many of us did not even know that we offered these things to others, but once we saw the messages, it was a great way to get a glimpse into our own special light.
We can begin to find our unique traits by asking others or by looking into ourselves to see what we feel we offer others. I want each of you to find your special light and find a way to share that special light with the people around you.
Questions-Either journal about these questions or spend some time thinking through each one.
- What is special about you?
- What would others say they admire in you?
- What do you feel you present to the world?
- What do you offer others?
- What do you bring to your relationships?
- What do you love to do?
- What makes you smile?
- How can you incorporate all of this to be even more true to yourself and your purpose?
Fieldwork-
Ask a few close friends or family members what you bring to that relationship. What are your special characteristics that make you unique and wonderful? What would they say your light is? Take this information and begin to appreciate what is so great about you!
Enjoy the journey!

4B This Week's Topic is Abundance!
The upcoming topic is What is your light? What is unique and special about you? Check back Monday for the latest blog and fieldwork!
Topic 4-B Abundance
If there is plenty for everyone and we can all have what we want, how do we get it? The first step is to figure out what we truly want? By looking at others and their skills and traits, we can begin to decide if those fit for our perfect life. When you see a trait or skill someone else has, either appreciate that quality in them and acknowledge it or if it is something that fits for you, decide how to incorporate that into your life. Don't be afraid to test things out and continually work on defining your perfect balance.
When you see someone that seems to have the perfect life, would you really want everything they have? The good and bad? The trials and successes? If you could really see every ones complete life, would you want to be anyone other than yourself? Probably not. Take the bits and pieces that work for you and create your ideal life.
Look at everything around you and decide what you want. You are on the right path when you begin to understand who you are and when you realize you can have and create anything you want in your life. Remember there is plenty for everyone!
Questions-
Spend some time thinking about these questions or take some time to journal about them.
- What traits and characteristics do you admire in others?
- Do you want those for yourself?
- If so, how can you create that for you while remaining true to who you are?
- Who do you want to be?
- If you could create anything for yourself, what would it be?
- What is the first step you need to take to begin to create that?
Fieldwork-
If you have found things you want to add into your life, begin to take the steps you need to create that for yourself. Start small and keep building from there. Become the person you want to be!
Bonus Challenge topic 4-
The first step to creating your ideal life is to get a clear picture of how your ideal life will look. If there is plenty for everyone, what do you want in your life? How will your life look if you can have everything you want? Think about your ideal life and don't limit yourself. You can have it all!!

4A This Week's Topic is Abundance
Topic 4A-
This week's topic is Abundance. By abundance, I mean there is plenty for everyone. Sometimes it is easy to look at others and see what they have or what they do well and we may become a little jealous. If we know there is plenty for everyone, we can appreciate what others have and look at the parts we may like and we can use that information to create what is best for us.
Instead of being jealous, acknowledge what others have and allow them to have it. If you want something similar and it fits with your true ideal life, then create that for you. There is no limit to what you can create for yourself. Instead of looking at others with envy, appreciate them, get to know yourself and what you truly want and create that for yourself!
We can all have what we want. Come from a place of abundance and it takes away the competition and jealousy. What is it you want??
Questions:
Take some time to think about your answers or journal about these questions.
- What are some things you appreciate in others?
- What have you envied in others?
- Can you allow them to have that and acknowledge and appreciate it for them?
- If you know there is plenty for everyone, does it help?
- If there is plenty for everyone, what do you want in your life?
- Who do you want to be?
- What steps do you need to take to create what you want?
Fieldwork:
Think about the traits and characteristics you admire in others. Acknowledge what you appreciate in them and allow them to have that. Tell at least one person what you appreciate and admire about them. Be more willing to share what you think is great about others.
Quote: Tara Meyer Robson- If you want a limitless, abundant, loving life, make sure that all you believe is limitless, abundant, compassionate and loving.

3B This Week's topic is Practice Self-Care!
The next topic will be Abundance. Check back Monday for the latest post!!
Self-Care 3-B
Hopefully at the beginning of the week, you were able to take some time to practice self-care. Today, we will look at how taking care of yourself makes you feel. Look back to topic 3A to see more or start at topic 1A and work your way here.
Remember in this process to be true to you and move along at your own pace. If a topic hits home, spend more time there or if you have mastered a topic already, create a challenge for yourself or give yourself a break. You are in charge of your life and what you get from it so use the blog a resource, but always be true to your needs.
For some of you, practicing self-care may have been very hard. I know there are many people out there that give to others and only think of themselves if there is something leftover. I hope you were able to do a little something just for you this week so you can explore the different feelings this brings about.
As step 2 of practicing self-care, I want you to notice your feelings when you take care of you. By starting to look at yourself and your needs, and by beginning to take care of yourself, you can change your whole approach to life. Each time you do something for yourself this week, notice how you feel during and afterwards. Are you smiling? Are you happier? Is there a change from the way you normally behave?
Last week we went on vacation and I did not want to have any delays in my blog posting schedule. Well, needless to say, things happened that changed those plans. My plan was to do my Thursday blog posting during our layover in the airport but we had a major delay and ended up running through the airport to catch our next flight. So, I did not get a chance to work on my blog. Then, yesterday, I had other things to do during the day but I knew I still needed to get my blog posted. Finally, last night, I was going to sit down to do my blog, but I checked in with myself and knew that if I postponed the blog by one day and took the evening to relax, I would be much better off. I had been going and going and I could keep that up and feel stressed, or I could take some time for me and have a much better evening and morning! By checking in to see how I was feeling, I was able to make choices that kept me happy, which in turn made my interactions with others better too.
Questions- Spend some time thinking about the answers or journal about your thoughts!
What did you do this week to practice self-care?
How do you feel when you spend time doing something that gives you joy?
How does this change your perspective?
How do you approach others?
How do you approach life?
What is your perfect balance of taking care of you and keeping your tank full vs. taking care of others?
What does it feel like to come from a place of happy/full vs. rundown/empty?
What can you do for yourself to make sure you are taking care of you and your needs?
What will you do tomorrow to put a smile on your face?
Fieldwork 3B-Each time you do something for yourself, acknowledge how it makes you feel. How does it feel while you are doing it, how does it feel after you do it and how does it impact your feelings for the rest of the day? What does it feel like to have a full tank vs. an empty tank?? Do you see any benefits to practicing self-care? If so, what are the benefits?
Bonus Challenge topic 3-
One of the major reasons for practicing self-care is to improve your overall life. By taking care of you, you will enhance your interaction with others! This week explore others reactions when you are coming from a place where you are taken care of and happy vs. running on empty. Do they react differently, is your interaction better, what benefits do you see in your approach to others when you take care of yourself? Recognize your impact on others! How can you be your best?
I would love to hear your feedback! If you have any questions or comments, email me a coachgaye@redefinebalance.com.

Quote of the week: Eda LeShan= When we truly care for ourselves, it becomes possible to care far more profoundly for other people. The more alert and sensitive we are to our own needs, the more loving and generous we can be toward others.

3A This Week's topic is Practice Self-Care!
Practice Self-Care 3-B will be coming on Friday this week. I have been traveling and am going to take the night off from making blog updates!! I hope you will check back tomorrow!
Thanks for understanding!

Practice Self-Care 3-A
Last week we worked on Balance and started to define what your perfect balance would look like. Hopefully you were able to make some shifts so you are more aligned with your ideal balance. This week, we will explore how taking care of yourself can be beneficial to you and to the ones you love. If you are practicing self-care for the first time, it may feel like you are being a little selfish, but once you begin see the benefits, I hope you will realize it is actually healthy. Practicing self-care goes hand in hand with our last two topics; Happiness is a Choice and Balance.
By taking care of yourself, you are better equipped to help others around you. If you come from a healthy and happy mindset, everyone will see the benefits, not just you. Think about your friends, your spouse or your children. If you don't take care of yourself and you are unhappy, how do you think this affects them? Now, think about how it affects them if you take care of yourself and are happy? You have more to give when you are happy and if you have children, what better gift could you give them than having them be raised by someone who loves their life??
Here are 2 quick examples. On the airplane, they tell you to put your mask on before you help others. If you do not take care of yourself first, you are unable to help anyone else. Also, think about you car, if the gas tank is empty, you can not go anywhere. The same is true for you. If you are running on empty and don't fill yourself up, you have nothing to give. So, can you see how it is beneficial to take a little time for you to make sure your gas tank is full or you have your mask on before you help others?
Don't put yourself last and everyone else first. Be healthy and take care of yourself so you have more to give others!
Questions-
Either journal about the questions or take some time to think about them.
- What do you do for yourself each day?
- If you could choose anything to do for yourself, what would it be?
- How would it make you feel to take care of yourself?
- What is holding you back?
- Can you overcome those obstacles?
- What will you do for yourself tomorrow?
Fieldwork 3A-Explore how you spend your time. Do you put everyone else first or do you take time for yourself? Your fieldwork is to take a little bit of time every day this week to do something for yourself. It can be big or small, you decide.
Enjoy your journey!

Here are 2 quick examples. On the airplane, they tell you to put your mask on before you help others. If you do not take care of yourself first, you are unable to help anyone else. Also, think about you car, if the gas tank is empty, you can not go anywhere. The same is true for you. If you are running on empty and don't fill yourself up, you have nothing to give. So, can you see how it is beneficial to take a little time for you to make sure your gas tank is full or you have your mask on before you help others?
Don't put yourself last and everyone else first. Be healthy and take care of yourself so you have more to give others!
Questions-
Either journal about the questions or take some time to think about them.
- What do you do for yourself each day?
- If you could choose anything to do for yourself, what would it be?
- How would it make you feel to take care of yourself?
- What is holding you back?
- Can you overcome those obstacles?
- What will you do for yourself tomorrow?
Fieldwork 3A-Explore how you spend your time. Do you put everyone else first or do you take time for yourself? Your fieldwork is to take a little bit of time every day this week to do something for yourself. It can be big or small, you decide.
Enjoy your journey!
