‘What’s Bigger Than Me
Posted by adminIt’s taken me a few days to settle down after being at the ‘Mental Toolbox’ for 3 days. 200 people all making changes in themselves - wow!
Do you find after attending an inspiring seminar, that you want to apply the information you’ve learnt all at once? Trying to remember everything I’ve heard is the hard part, especially all the juicy gems I wanted to share with you! Hence this Blog.
So, here’s an excerpt from this month’s coaches’ newletter written by Paul Blackburn that got me thinking:
True satisfaction and fulfillment are more likely the result of building/doing/creating something bigger than yourself.
Therefore we need to go in search of the “thing” that will get you out of bed on the days that you otherwise would be tempted to stay in. Rarely have I seen that this “thing” turns out to be personal benefit in the form of money/acknowledgedment/toys etc.
During the Mental Toolbox seminar, we watched a YouTube video about a Dad who found something bigger than him, which did more that get him out of bed in the morning! I encourage you to watch this inspiring real life story.
This Dad wanted an abundant life for his son so much that he was willing to pay the price himself so that his child could live a life he wouldn’t otherwise have. That’s Love.
It’s made me ponder about what ‘gets me out of bed’ in the morning… what puts the “wow factor” in my life. Certainly being a Life Coach gives my life a “why” that’s bigger than myself… a sense of true satisfaction and fulfillment.
What inspired you about this video/story? What gets you out of bed that’s bigger than yourself? Let me know - a Blog really works well when people use it to share ideas with each other.

That as we help someone else either physically, mentally, emotionally, in the building of their character, etc., we grow & probably in leaps & bounds ourselves. What a remarkable God to orchistrate this in humans!
