Don't ever be discouraged. Not now, not ever. Why? Because you are too important to waste your time in negativity. When you notice that uncomfortable feeling, call your coach, talk to a friend, or take a walk.
One of the reasons that coaching delivers, is because a coach always encourages. A coach is positive and offers assurance, peace, and calm. When those feelings arise, and a coach is not available, always remember that you are. You can encourage yourself. A few blogs ago I talked about the importance of having strategies in place for self care. Realize that when your down it's important not to stay there. Sure, sometimes a good cry or a day of feeling sorry for yourself serves a purpose, but it's not a solution. For continued peace and calm, learning to be your own coach and best friend is a worthy goal.
This week, take some time to think about ways to encourage yourself. Ask your coach, friends, neighbors, and family members how they stay positive and encouraged. Then, put in place some internal language, visualizations, and affirmations that will help you during those difficult times. In fact, using self encouragement on a daily basis will help you avoid feeling discouraged altogether.
Imagine facing all your days feeling calm and at peace. Wow, how cool is that?
