I have a little story for your
There’s a woman, of ‘indeterminate’ age who lives in New York. She’s happy, has a good job, great husband, children, grandchildren, friends. In other words she has to all intents and purposes and from what the outside world would consider ‘a good life’.
Yet – every morning on her way in to work she stops – looks across the Hudson River – and gets very disappointed. Where’s the Golden Gate Bridge? . She looks and looks but can never see it.
She does this every day – every morning on her way to work. Week in week out.
She stops her car, she looks all along the Hudson and can’t see the Golden Gate B ridger
One day she’s standing looking out across the Hudson and a man comes up to her and says
“you know I hope you don’t mind me stopping to speak to you. Every morning I see you stop here and you look out across the Hudson and heave a huge sigh. Yet to all intents and purposes with your good clothes and lovely car and your general appearance one would think you were happy. Can I ask why you sigh like that”
And the lady looks across at him and says “what have they done with the Golden Gate Bridge’?
And the man looks at her and says “well no wonder you can’t see it, you’re in the wrong State.
And that’s it, isn’t it – sometimes we look so hard for something but if we’re in the wrong state we’ll never find what we’re looking for.
Sometimes you know we just have to stop looking and just let it happen.
Be in the moment and enjoyr
Enjoy the view we actually have rather than one we are ‘striving for’
It’s a lot less time consuming, and uses up less of our energy as well

About the Author
I've been on my own personal development journey for many years, discovering, learning and studying with some of the very best experts in their fields.
I’ve always worked in a people environment helping and advising so it seemed a natural progression for me to move from that to becoming a personal development coach.
I believe very much that unless you re-programme your negative beliefs and thoughts you'll never 'move on' and that could be with relationships, weight loss, health, career, money.
Using the very powerful and effective processes of EFT, NLP, and Hypnosis, I motivate and steer people toward living the lives they want rather than what they 'should' or been told to. This gives them the opportunity to truly live the life they deserve.
I believe that what we put out there we get back and the only way to improve our lives is by ‘reprogramming’ our mindset.
The 3 greatest internal blocks people have are fear, self doubt and procrastination. When we release those we can be, do, have whatever it is we truly desire.
Like a computer when the 'hardware' isn't congruent with the 'software' no advancement can be made when we are out of sync; and it's the same with our brains. If we say one thing – and believe in our subconscious something totally, different we’ll never make the changes we think we want. Our thoughts and beliefs are what makes us tick so whatever the issue whether it’s relationships, work/career, money, self esteem, confidence; I help people look at what is holding them back and help them release those ties enabling them to go forward with whatever it is they desire. . But it can be a very painful process, the letting go, and people have to be ready and willing to make the changes. Affirmations are wonderful tools but useless without that one major ingredient – Action!
Once you take the Action, are consistent and make the commitment – YOU make it happen
With Persistence plus Confidence YOU equal Success
My greatest joy is seeing the transformation when someone releases their blocks and moves forward.
