At the end of the day
For anyone trying to change anything about themselves like english_wolf says: “You can do it, but only if you really want it”
I had intended to help by using email, this website, calling cards so yes, phone calls (I am in NZ), as well as chat programs.
I am assuming confused101 was not so keen, but the offer does stand that if anyone is serious about wanting to be happy, I am serious about helping coach them through that. :-)
I have personally gone through a lot and I had to leave home at 15. I made my mind up then, that I wanted to have a fun and happy life, and at 29 so far I have certainly succeeded in doing that.
I had sort of thought we could set goals each week, little things, and then build up to it.
OK, sounds good!
Do you want to put up a goal under your profile, and if we keep them up on the site, we have a record for how we are going.
I have read studies that where you share your success and failures it provides a real motivation (and I damn well know it worked for me for the fitness stuff!)
One thing that has been shown to be a lot more effective for goals is if they are set in the positive. So if you have say “Fix my big mess of a life” that would subconsciously re-affirm this for you, so as much as possible when setting goals, turn them around the other way.
So how about maybe “Organise an awesome life” or some goal like that? And I will add the complimentary goal “Help someone achieve and awesome life”
Once you have it up, let me know.
I will also email you offline, so you have my email, so you can email me offline if need be. (you might want to delete your email from the site, as it could generate a lot of spam for you? Just a thought..)
hey
hey im sorry i took so long to respond!!!
its just i didn’t know wat to say, im soo shocked u offered to help.. at the same time … i wanna to make sure i am fully willing, but i don’t know if i am .. i don’t want to waste your time… im still kinda debating :-/
but just wanna thank u …. n let u know im still thinking abt it
-jo
No stress :-)
It is all sweet as, I will be helping Mo7, and you are welcome to join up if you want to. The big point being that there is absolutely nothing that I could do to help someone, if they are not actually commited, or wanting to change.
I will let you know how we get on also.
:-)
So the offer still stands, and I will be ready if you wanted it.
Cheers,
Jay.
