Showing Up In Your Life

I am always surprised how many people are not following up and don't even show up in life. For instance, I offer three coaching sessions per month, but ironically, only 1 or 2 people show up for their respective appointments. No matter what tips and tricks I use to inspire them, they are meaningless until they make a solid commitment to show up on a regular basis. People don't realize that each time they promise to do something and they don't honor that commitment, they do a disfavor to themselves, other people and also to the universe.

On a personal level, not Showing Up can result in losing a once in a life time job opportunity or losing crucial grades by not showing up on time to exams. On an interpersonal level, not showing up will surely weaken your social relationships, for example, not showing up at your child's birth or not being present at your best friend's wedding. And when talking about the effects of not showing up on a universal level, they can be very diverse. Suppose you are a celebrity and your part is to show up at events that contribute to global peace and hunger. If you don't understand the importance of making an appearance at the respective event, then you will be doing a disfavor to the universe and all of humanity.

Showing up is the first step to your success. If you don't show up at your best you may lose an opportunity or the life changing contacts that you could attract. Keeping your commitments also includes being ready and prepared to share your authentic self, your power and your special gifts with the planet. Whether it is art, music, communications, computer skills, sports or cultivating great relationships, sharing your gift is a part of showing up. So if you want to be successful in life, be it on a personal or professional level or even in your relationships, all you have to do is Show Up.

Unfortunately, in this prevalent society, the people who generally show up too often are usually discouraged by their family and friends who want to keep the status-quo and do not want the harmony of the group disrupted. But my suggestion to you all is not to listen to people who stop you from doing the right thing, no matter if they alienate you or think ill of you. The more you make the effort to show up, the bigger difference you can make in the world and be yourself, even if you disturb or offend your friends. So be true to yourself, your commitments and show up.

To your Success,
