We Are Meant to Save Ourselves! This morning’s coaching truth is for myself and for anyone else who needs to hear this. Too often, I meet coaching clients who carry a silent script in their minds: “Someone will save me!” Or, alternatively, “Someone must save me!” They may not say these words outright, but their stories echo the same refrain—blaming others for not stepping in or not doing enough, or not doing what we think they must be doing for us. And the reality is, whatever anyone else does, it will never be enough, because no matter what they do, you will still feel it is not enough! Here’s the hard truth: waiting for someone else to rescue you is a relic of our childlike nature. But in adulthood, the power—and the responsibility—rests squarely with you. Yes, you can seek help, get a mentor, a sponsor, a coach, supportive friends or family members, or ask for guidance and accept support. But you are not entitled to anything. Adulting means you are the captain of your lifeboat. You steer the course. You row the lifeboat. You decide where you heading to. You decide what you will do when the storm show up. And the storms and strong winds will show up. Whatever happens you have to decide how your life story unfolds—not just for you, but for anyone else who depends on your life, like your children. Pointing that index finger outward and blaming others will never rewrite the script of your life. Instead, turn that finger inward—not with criticism, but with love, compassion and courage—and ask yourself the most powerful question: “What can I do right now to take control of my life?” The first step doesn’t have to be perfect, but it has to be yours. In my coaching model, the W-O-M-A-N coaching model, the O stands for… cue a standing ovation… Ownership! I say to my clients and to myself often, “Ownership is the birthplace of transformation.” Remember, the person you’re waiting for is you! You have to save yourself. In fact, you are the only one who can save yourself. Everyone else is busy saving themselves! Fortunately for us, we were made with all the paraphernalia to save ourselves. So, let’s do it. What is the very next action that you will take to live the life you deserve? Let me know if this landed for you, or pass it on to someone who needs to hear this.
