What’s a big goal that you're working towards right now? Growing your coaching business? Signing more clients or increasing your revenue? Or perhaps it's a personal goal, like improving your quality of life, working less, or focusing more on your relationships. Whatever it is, that big change is possible for you. But even with that vision in mind, you may still struggle to stick with the path of getting there. In this episode, we'll explore the challenges that come with changing your life and how your daily decisions can create lasting change sustainably–one small choice at a time.
When we set out to make changes, we often come up with a big plan of action. However, this can leave us feeling overwhelmed, discouraged, or frustrated when we don't progress as quickly as we desire. I want to offer you this: sometimes, doing less and pushing less—while gently bringing daily intention into small moments—is much more powerful than even the biggest, grandest plan.
Today, we'll talk about the trap of grand gestures and why we're drawn to dramatic change in the first place. We explore how inaction often follows those big attempts that fall flat, and the impact of the deeper things that are going on within us. When you combine mindset shifts with an understanding of the nervous system, examining the small choices in your life provides a gentle entry point to transformation with less resistance and greater ease.
Small changes, made in small moments, can truly lead to the greatest shifts. We'll look at this through the lens of you as a business owner, as someone working toward personal growth, and as a coach supporting others through change. When you focus on daily decisions, you create your own step-by-step guide to lasting change—and you learn how to help your clients do the same.
What you'll learn:
- Why small decisions are more sustainable than grand gestures when shaping the life you want
- The nervous system's role in sabotaging big change
- How energy cost impacts your ability to create lasting change
- Examples of small daily decisions and how they build habits that drive transformation
- Why the four fundamentals of lasting change are essential to this approach—for both you and your clients
