Overcoming the Obstacles to your thriving Life

Between you and what you wish to accomplish in life, there are a multitude of habits to change, modify, amplify, or eliminate.

Changing habits... That sounds easy enough, right? Well, sometimes it is. But not always, and certainly not for every habit.

These, down below, are the obstacles that you may have to overcome in order to start a new habit, launch a new project, or make a change in your professional or personal life

These obstacles are very real and can prevent any change from happening, even when things are not going well for you.

You see, I don't believe in "excuses".

I don't believe in sayings like « when there's a will, there's way », especially when they're thrown at someone who might already be drowning in difficulties.

And I don't believe that people don't want to improve their life, or make their dreams come true.

I just don't.

But those obstacles... Those obstacles, not only do I believe they're real but I also understand how they can hinder any change or even desire to implement change.

What I also believe is that changing habits for the better (for oneself) requires energy and courage.

It does requires energy and courage:

To learn how to be fully present with oneself through the good and the bad, without distracting oneself endlessly when things get hard
To create a professional life that excites you so much that you excel without even trying;
To keep striving to do better as a woman, a partner, a mother, a friend, a sister or a daughter...

All of this requires levels of energy and courage that you may not necessarily have at the end of a bustling and/or exhausting day.

But what I also know is that it's possible to overcome all these obstacles to create a life that fulfills you.

I see my clients achieve this, and I know it's possible for you too.

Keep trying despite the obstacles. You got this !
