Sometimes you're where you want to be, but having made it you wonder "I'm here, now what?" HereNow is career and fulfillment coaching by Stephanie Usry.
It is my belief that we each have a general idea about what we want, but we fail to find the time or motivation to act because it's easier to bide by with the status quo. We know that if we made time to work on x, maybe it would solve something that's lacking in our lives; our happiness, our professional success, our relationship. However, it is hard to work on X when we have our normal lives to l
ive. We have nothing to be accountable to in enacting personal changes. So, instead of taking the steps we believe will make us happier, we keep doing what we're doing without creating a space for these potentials, for these changes. I am certified by the Coaches Training Institute as a Fulfillment coach. I work with high-potential clients to make space for their thoughts so they can make plans to reach their potential. I offer a complimentary 30 minute discovery session to anyone who is interested in coaching to show you what the experience is like and see if we would be a good fit to work together. Contact me to schedule.

How many people do you know who are unhappy at work? Are you one of them? Considering how much time we spend at work, we have a very limited scope for how we approach new roles, the interview, and the job search. Clearly something is amiss.
"Across cultures and industries, managers strongly prize “cultural fit” — the idea that the best employees are like-minded....But cultural fit has morphed into a far more nebulous and potentially dangerous concept. It has shifted from systematic analysis of who will thrive in a given workplace to snap judgments by managers about who they’d rather hang out with." Great NYT piece on hiring, culture, and how our personal biases impact our hiring practices.

"...Passion about work is not a feeling many people I know of can relate to. I have friends who have the great job, the job their parents are proud of and their friends jealous about but who feel like they're losing a part of their soul every day they continue to going to work and answer the emails or respond to the inquiries that just don't make any sense."

Passion is a funny thing. We feel passion about creative endeavors we embark upon, the things we do on the weekend, and once in a while about the work that we do. Unfortunately the last point,...

You're halfway through your last day before Thanksgiving. While it's important to spend time being present with the people you care about, this break is also a great opportunity to reflect on how satisfied you are, right now, with all aspects of your life.
If you have some time this weekend, check out the Wheel of Life and on a scale of 1-10 rate how satisfied you are in each of the different areas of life. What can you do before the year ends to bump up your satisfaction in one of these life areas?
What are you hoping to accomplish this week?
I'm excited to have some time over this holiday weekend while everyone shuts down, to reflect and start setting goals for the end of this year and beginning of 2015.
“There are three types of people in this world. Firstly, there are people who make things happen. Then there are people who watch things happen. Lastly, there are people who ask, what happened? Which do you want to be?”

The Founding of Here Now by Stephanie Usry
An article that hits close to home on our current state of busyness instead of being present, and being here, now.
"This disease of being “busy”...saps our ability to be fully present with those we love the most in our families, and keeps us from forming the kind of community that we all so desperately crave."
"When I ask, “How are you?"...I am not asking how many items are on your to-do list, nor asking how many items are in your inbox. I want to know how your heart is doing, at this very moment...Tell me your heart is joyous, tell me your heart is aching, tell me your heart is sad, tell me your heart craves a human touch. Examine your own heart, explore your soul, and then tell me something about your heart and your soul."

Our overscheduled lives leave little time for contemplation and reflection. How do we enable each other to pause and reflect together and ask how our hearts are doing?
