Past Due Thoughts

Wow, it's easy to stay busy and not collect our thoughts. Here is this great tool, ready and willing to accept whatever I divulge. It's such a friend and I've not taken it seriously. Well... that's changing. Today this blog and I are re-acquainting ourselves. We are agreeing to work together in service of truth and heart.

Before, I let this space intimidate me a bit. I felt pressure to perform, if you will... as if the only words allowed to be dropped had to be made of gold. In my mind, they had to carry an influence and stop hearts... open up minds and cause earth shattering revelations. No wonder I've not written any more! What pressure I've put on myself... until now. Now, this is a place to be raw and fresh... and sometimes I may not even think before I write and who knows what will come out! I'm OK with that.

Whoever is out there and has a busy life to face, consider writing somewhere. Capture your thoughts and then... let them go. Consider this a privilege. Honor the words that reflect your thoughts. Recognize the life in them. Collect what you've learned, be thankful and step forward. Now, take a bow. You're amazing and life is yours! What a gift!

Something to ponder

This week has been busy and full of wonderful revelations. I attended a networking function with wall to wall women in business. It made me curious about what really moves a business to success. While I can see that several different applications make contributions to the overall cause, what pushes it over the top? I suppose that the meaning of success plays a large role in the path to get there. In this particular room full of women, I stumbled across what appeared to be several different meanings of success.

Challenged to snap into the way of the room (purposed to push my business into the limelight-eager to be noticed) I stepped back and continued to witness and watch. What is it? At this point, it can't be a popularity contest (which really wasn't working for me anyway). It has to be deeper than that.

Hmmmmmmm... all that I could come up with... passion and connection. Standing in our place of passion is magical. Passion and purpose create a draw. We don't have to work so hard. We live it. When we talk... passion and purpose come out. When we stand... passion and purpose stand with us. It's much stronger than anything we can come up with in our head. It's connected to a bigger purpose and it's contagious... beyond our control. This is where I yearn to stand.

What about you? What inspires you? What does moving forward look like in your neck of the woods?

Warmly,
Robin

Hello World!

Hello world! Welcome to the brand-new Zinger Zanger blog, with hopes and aspirations to become a well-viewed and inspiring exchange. My name is Robin and I am a professional, co-active coach. My niche? I'm in the process of defining that right now. I seem to fit well with women/executives that are active in the sales/retail industry. I'm drawn to corporate situations with the intent around helping managers, presidents and owners discover the value in each of their employees and even themselves. My passion overflows around helping others find ways to tweak their perception, step into their own passion and live life in the biggest way possible. Inspiring others to find hope and happiness within their own thoughts... inspires me!

I've attended Coaches Training Institute over this past year. It has been a life-changing experience and has opened up my thinking in so many ways. I've learned how ambiguous life is and how delightful that can be. Let's face it... we are human beings doing the best we can. We avoid failure as often as possible, when sometimes failure is where the gifts are hiding. Life is full of surprises, is it not?

I look forward to reading some of your thoughts as we encourage each other to live our naturally creative, resourceful and whole lives. Welcome!
