It’s 2023 and I’m retiring…
It’s true. It’s a new year, a fresh start, and an opportunity to let go of the past and begin again. So, I’ve chosen to retire.
And no, not in the traditional sense. I’m not going anywhere. I am still coaching. I am still showing up. I am still Coach D.
But I have chosen to retire the following:
- The glorification of busy
- The fear of saying no
- The belief that I am not enough
- Comparison to anyone other than myself
- Doing anything that starts with “I should”
- Worrying about the future
- Pushing through pain (physical & mental)
- Doing more versus doing better
- Trying to keep up instead of staying on my own path
- Assuming Fran can read my mind
- Not asking for what I truly want
- Looking outside of myself for those deep answers
- Buying things I don’t need
- Avoiding rest
- Doing the same things but expecting a different result
- Complaining
- Saving things for “special events”
- Getting stressed out about things I cannot control
These are things that, despite my best efforts, have snuck their way back into my daily life, habits, and behaviors, year after year…until now.
So, I’m retiring these in 2023 and I invite you to do the same, Kim?
What do you want to retire in 2023?
It can be BIG, it can be small, it can be anything that no longer serves the truest version of you.
And it’s your turn to let go so you can let 2023 in, fully and fiercely.
You can do this. I know you can, because you're here, in this moment, reading this and that is your sign.
It’s time to retire, shed the layers, and break free into 2023!
You got this and I’ve got your back,
~ Coach D. xoxo
