Grab a pen and paper! It's Spring!

Welcome to my Monday Morning Message

OK everyone… it’s time.

Grab a pen and a piece of paper. Spring officially started on March 20th, and we have important work to do!

Spring is about awakening as the earth bursts into life. It allows for fresh starts and often feels like something in you is ready to come alive.

So spring is the perfect time to check in with your goals. Clear goals give you a clear direction to head toward. Without them, we can get lost in our day-to-day routines, and suddenly we look up and it’s June 21and spring is over.

I’m a Vision and Goals coach, and goals matter deeply to me… but I’ll be honest—I don’t always practice what I preach. I haven’t looked at my goals in a while. So, I’m starting today.

Your spring goals don’t have to be huge. Not “climb Kilimanjaro” (unless that’s your thing).

Maybe it’s: spend more time with someone you love, learn how to tango, plan a weekend getaway, or try something you’ve been putting off.

Goals don’t have to be heavy. They bring richness, direction, and energy.

But they do require being brave. It can be hard to look at your procrastination and resistance. Be honest with yourself—you won’t die. Notice where you might be holding back. Is it fear of embarrassing yourself? Not sure where to start? Grab a friend, a partner, someone you trust.

So ask yourself: what do I want to create over the next three months?

Then make a date with your pen and paper. Give yourself an hour to dream and plan.

Some of you will do this. Some won’t—and that’s okay.

I promise that I will do this and will be quietly cheering you on.

And if you do it too, email me and tell me. I would love to hear how it went!

Have a beautiful week.

With warmth, Colette
