Try Less and accept more....

TRY LESS AND ACCEPT MORE

I heard someone say this while I was walking on the beach this morning. We were both in motion in opposite directions but I heard it clear as day. As a Life Design Coach - this phrase seems counter intuitive. Try less??? Really? If I try less or if my clients try less won't they get less? Logic tells us that. Society tells us that. However, when I sat after my walk and thought about it - the times in my life that I felt the most fulfilled were when I accepted the present situation or person exactly as they were.

There are times where my clients' homework is TO DO NOTHING - throw away the to do lists...

(I have one client who just couldn't throw it away so she gave it to her best friend to hold for her. ) Turns out she never retrieved it and she felt like she got more accomplished just by being in the present moment - taking the next right action and staying out of the results.

This blog entry is a short one.

I am trying to say less right now and accept this concept more.

Should you choose to take on this theory of trying less and accepting more, I'd love to hear what you experienced.

Have a beautiful weekend.
