Myth: It’s Just My Job that Needs to Change - Pt 3

Other positive shifts continued. Over several months time, Daniel and I agreed that there was an intriguing synergy going on. By honoring his cooking school
calling, Daniel fostered a shift in positive energy that began infiltrating the rest of his life. The life lesson for all of us is this: Energy spreads and a whole life perspective matters. The other vital wisdom is about starting with your heart (not trying to fix the one thing your head tells you to correct).
It’s fair to say that if Daniel’s job was feeling toxic, that negative energy was infecting other areas of life for a general malaise. It was much more fun to watch how his investment in loving himself enough to pursue the heart’s desire of cooking school spread positive energy into other life areas. This made the job change less pressing if not irrelevant. For Daniel it was not paramount that he make a living with cooking.

Coaching equipped him to keep making optimal choices in tune with his true spirit.
