Life Does Not Get Easier You Just Get Stronger - This Requires Life Skills

by Suzie Doscher
 
Based on my professional and personal experiences relating to Personal Growth and Development I found that there are a number of issues everybody faces at one point or another.

1. First step is to raise your awareness to exactly which life skills you would benefit from.
2. Second step -  acquire them, or upgrade the ones you already have. For this a qualified life coach can be really helpful, or you can draw on all the wonderful tools, apps, books, webinars etc. available.
3. Thirdly enjoy the difference to the quality of your day-to-day life. This applies to how you handle yourself at home as well as at work.

 
Having these life skills and knowing when to reach for one can be compared to knowing that the toothbrush is used to clean your teeth.
If you want to be more selective what you say 'yes' to means learning how to say 'no'. By choosing to behave differently, together with practice and repetition, the brain will rewire itself - neuroscience has proven this. Also, know that maintenance is of the utmost importance - just because you took one bath does not mean you never have to take another one! ...Click 'Read More' below

Basic life skills anybody can benefit from:

• Saying 'No'
• Allowing yourself to schedule 'me time'
• Scheduling time to think - away from technology!
• Understanding what is the best approach to a stressful moment
• Being comfortable with asking for help
• Comfortable and confident to communicate clearly, openly and honestly
• Knowing your Core Values and aligning your life and goals with them
• Knowing that change involves practice and repetition! With time the brain can rewire itself, i.e. you get rid of the 'virus in the software!
• Upgrading your social / interpersonal skills
• Enhancing your Self-Esteem / Self-Confidence

 
In my coaching practice I like to take care of the 'housekeeping' before my client and I focus on achieving more long term goals. Once the basic life skills are in place and being maintained we move on to focus on the bigger goal(s).  It is always best to come from a stronger place when looking to achieve goals. ​​
