Life Coach: You Want to Make a Difference

As a life coach, one of the things I’ve noticed is that we, as humans, share certain basic motivations. And one of the most common ones is our desire to make a difference in the world … to live a life of meaning and purpose.

But do you ever wonder if what you’re doing makes any real difference?

Do you doubt the impact you’re having on the people and the world around you?

If you’re like me, and most of the folks I’ve worked with as a life coach and counselor, you can’t help but wonder from time to time.

Well, I had the nicest thing happen to me … twice … in the last couple of months that confirms we don’t always know and appreciate the impact we have on the people we touch.

You Want to Make a Difference

A couple of months ago, I got these flowers from a client I hadn’t worked with since 2012!

With this card …

Do you ever wonder if what you’re doing makes any real difference?

Then, last week, one of my clients sent me this bouquet with a note thanking me for my support and guidance.

It makes such a huge difference when we’re unexpectedly delighted by a thank you … an affirmation of how we’ve helped someone.

It’s true. We all want to make a difference in the world and be of service to others, and what these two lovely surprises tell me is that WE DO! … more than we’ll probably ever know.

You might not get flowers every week, but I’m guessing the signs are there.

Know that who you are and what you do DOES make a difference … sometimes a long-lasting difference.

Love,

Denise

P.S. I love my coaching clients so much I should be sending THEM flowers!
