Ted Talk on Vulnerability

Br. Brown's talk really moved me and provided broader perspectives on authenticity and connection. Take some time to view this if you struggle with the notion of vulnerability.

HAPPY NEW YOU!!

It’s December 2010. What happened to all the things you said you’d make happen this year? Did you? Are you still trying to find the perfect relationship or career, lose those 15 pounds? What do you think is getting in the way?

In 2009, I signed up for an amazing life coaching certification program and while training in the tools to provide my clients, I got the life a new life. I am in the relationship of my dreams, I am making a living doing what I love and am more connected to my true self than I have ever known possible. Who knew? Coaching has changed my complete experience of myself and of life.

What happened? I set SMARTER goals and made sure they were met. I had breakthroughs in my relationship with myself, people and time in the process. My communication got clearer. I learned to make requests rather than complain or be at the effect of things that didnt work for me. My life today is totally different than where I was last year at this time.

You can have that too. Contact me for an exploratory coaching session to get you where you want to go in life, with velocity. Coaching can provide you the tools to help set and meet your goals POWERFULLY. Make 2011 the year YOU make the life you have always dreamed of happen. Transformation awaits....

"HAPPY NEW YOU!!"

Imagine and fulfill in 2011.

Team O


One night, before dinner, my boyfriend sat down to do a crossword puzzle and I decided to join him. A few minutes in, 11 across caught my eye: “t-e-a-m-o.” I said, “What the heck is a ‘team O’?” and saw that the clue said …“Spanish for I love you.” Te amo. We laughed and decided that moving forward, we'd call our partnership a “Team O.”

Team O and te amo are one and the same; different ways to view the same set of letters. Love does that. It facilitates new vision and by reframing what is already there, new possibilities appear regardless of whether or not anything changes.

As I was thinking of this today, one of my favorite Shel Silverstein books, “The Missing Piece Meets the Big O,” came to mind. If you are familiar with this story you will understand how suddenly ‘Team O’ had a deeper meaning when I realized…“that’s how WE roll.”
If you are not familiar with this story, please take seven minutes and view the adaptation below. I truly hope it inspires you to see yourself as a new creation.

Are you intersted in transforming yourself and creating a “team O?” Do you want the kind of relationship that inspires others? How about doing the work to become a Big O!! Find out how life coaching can support you. Contact me for a sample session on how you can make it happen.

Enjoy!

Imagine and Fulfill (IF only)


The dictionary defines "if" as a condition. Not very empowering, eh? So, I turned "if" on its ear. You see, I too, am an "IF" but I prefer to see the word, my initials, as possibility. Thanks to several years of ontological life coaching I have learned to transform conditions and circumstances into power and true expressions of myself. You can have that too.

Life coaching is future based. You have the power to create a new life. Envision the life you want.

What if the only thing in the way... is you?

Inspire your way to Freedom from past based limitations and patterns.
Email or call me today for a free sample session and learn how creating accountability, structure and support can kick start your success.

Imagine and Fulfill your Ideal Future with Intense Follow-through on the actions that will take you there.

IF only, IF only...
No more excuses.... Let's make it happen!

Inspirational Notes from the Universe




Are you the kind of person who believes in signs or messages from the Universe? If so, Tut.com emails personalized, inspirational "Notes from the Universe," when you register as a member. These notes are reminders of the crazy ways in which the Universe conspires to assist us.

This morning, I received this very special note in my inbox. It was exactly what I needed to hear:
"Hey, Ileana... It's OK. Everything is fine. You've always been guided. Even now you are watched, and held, and adored. You've made great stuff happen, and you will make more great stuff happen. You've changed lives. You've changed your own. You've moved mountains and done the impossible. You've been scared and you overcame. You've been knocked down and you rose. And you've been lost, or so you thought, only to discover it was just the calm before another storm of creativity, love, and fun.
Humbled like the rest of 'em,
The Universe"

If you think you would enjoy receiving these messages throughout your week, sign up here. There is no fee.

To Postpone My Dream No Longer

May I have the courage today
To live the life that I would love
To postpone my dream no longer
But do at last what I came here for
And waste my heart on fear no more
~John O'Donoghue


What dreams are you putting off?
I ask you a very simple question: WHAT ARE YOU WAITING FOR?

Not sure how? Contact me for a sample session that will help you practice letting go of fear while tapping into your true nature.

Manage Your Time With Mission Control

“Work expands so as to fill the time available for it’s completion”
~Cyril Northcote Parkinson

Ever notice how when something is urgent... it gets handled immediately? There is no time to resist it, no time to procrastinate. It has to get done "NOW" and so it does?

Many of us know the things to do but we would rather pile all those projects on to the mountain we call a "to do" list. Do you have one of these lists? What if you were to consider that actually tackling that mountain of things to do ~ could be the breakthrough you want? Many would say that they would accomplish more if they had the time. Well, 24 hours is all any of us are given.

If time is an issue for you, why not look into doing a Mission Control productivity seminar? They have many several programs ideal for both business and personal performance enhancement.

The Foundations and Fundamentals online webinar is an excellent choice for anyone who can't even think of making the time to do a seminar. The self paced, seven module design is open for 12 weeks from the date of purchase. I strongly recommend this course as it will teach you how to take charge of your calendar in a most powerful way. It will help you see all of your To Do's more realistically. You will feel like you hired a professional organizer for all of your mental clutter, creating freedom and more time than you thought you had.
