Or should this post be entitled, "When is a self-limiting belief not actually self-limiting"?  I was inspired to write this post by one of my FaB clients who I coached earlier this week on a self-limiting belief around money.  I felt this life work balance tip would help you with your self-limiting beliefs.

It's never easy taking a career break, but sometimes ‘you've just got to do, what you’ve got to do,’ as the saying goes. This is particularly appropriate when you have to make preparations for - and welcome into the World - a new arrival. Mum can be very focused indeed when it comes to the significant challenge of raising a child and it is understandable that her main focus may not, for the time being, be on her career, which will be on hiatus. Thankfully, our society is very understanding and mum is very rarely in a financial bind during these all-important days.  Read More

Yesterday I was reading an in-depth article about the nature of fear as related to the England football team after their first two less than stellar matches for the World Cup.  The team has apparently been grappling with their fear.

I'm relieved to say that as I write this, they overcame their gremlins to beat Slovenia 1-0 yesterday, and they are through to the next round.  By the time you read this on Monday, I'm hoping that they will also have beaten Germany on Saturday night!

But back to fear and emotion which keeps us from achieving our true potential.  What are you afraid of and why?  Mandy Evans, coach, writer and speaker has coached thousands of people to get rid of their fears and one of her recent emails really struck me.  I thought you might like it too - and please especially take note about the point of "attending to your emotional well-being FIRST."

Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure. It is our light, not our darkness, that most frightens us. We ask ourselves, who am I to be brilliant, gorgeous, talented, and fabulous?

Actually, who are you not to be? You are a child of God. Your playing small doesn't serve the world. There's nothing enlightened about shrinking so that other people won't feel insecure around you. We are all meant to shine, as children do. We are born to make manifest the glory of God that is within us. It's not just in some of us, it's in everyone.

And as we let our own light shine, we unconsciously give other people permission to do the same. As we are liberated from our own fear, our presence automatically liberates others.
