Today, I encourage you to focus on change externally.
Who do you know who is facing a significant change in his/her personal or professional life?
What could you do to help this person? Sometimes, it’s as simple as spending time with them and listening; others, help requires taking action of some sort.
As you spend time with this person, and listen to his or her story, could you help them to see the situation from a different angle? As a coach, this is one of the things I do with my participants — help them to see another perspective that might allow them some new insight or ideas they may not have otherwise considered.
You might be able to help them come up with a couple of different solutions, and evaluate them…decide if they need to do something new, stop doing something they currently do that no longer serves them, or maybe even both (Yes! use the tool you learned yesterday — Know, Evaluate, Act/Change).
Who do you know who is facing change?
How much do you know about their situation?
What options are you aware of that they might want to consider when developing a solution or action plan?
Does the situation call for them to start something new, stop something in progress, or some combination of the two?
What is the best thing you could do for this person at this point in their life?
