When I was young, everyone tried to push me into being a teacher, but I had no desire to teach in the public school system. Now, so many years later, I'm teaching public workshops for adults and training life coaches. I'm really good at it, and I absolutely adore it!

I've been working on personal development for 25 years, but in recent years, I've grown into a person I never imagined I could be. Even though I know myself well, I've come to believe that I have unrevealed qualities and capabilities that will emerge over time. I can't tell you how exciting that is to me!

But living in such busy times, it's often hard to find the time. As a coach, I find that often, my clients have endless to-do lists and never feel they're accomplishing anything. Taking time to take stock of your growth and accomplishments is an important step in moving forward. When you see and acknowledge how far you've come, it gives you the impetus to take on new challenges with the optimism that you can achieve them.
