I saw a meme the other day that said something like ‘there were 4 days of summer and one day of September’.
Sounds about right…tomorrow is October.
While I don't love Pumpkin Spice anything, I do love October. It's my birthday AND anniversary month…what's not to love?
It also marks Q4 for those of us, and our banks, that care about things like that.
Whether you're looking at financial progress or goals set in Q1 (or any Q for that matter), it's a great time to push on the gas. A perfect time to reflect and give a little check-in for yourself if the goals you set were really aligned with your values or we could have dug a little deeper and be getting what we REALLY want.
As I've continued on my own personal journey, and also coaching and mentoring other women looking for clarity, freedom and flexibility, I cannot stress the importance of exploring your own set of values enough. It allows us to measure all of our decisions and actions against them. When we are misaligned with our true values, our mind and bodies like to give us little warnings; pits in our stomachs, lumps in our throats, sleepless nights, worry about things out of our control, anxiety, guilt and shame and a whole boatload of invisible ailments. When we know our values, we can use them as a guide to a long, lovely, fulfilling life.
Below you'll find a link to my Values Assessment exercise. It's pretty self-explanatory, however if you have questions or need a little push, just let me know. I am happy to help.
Okay, now October. November. December. Go get it.
