Life Coaching by Eileen Lang

Now is the time to imagine the change you want in your life for 2012. The first step is to outline the change you want and dream of achieving it. What would it look like and how would it feel if you achieved your goals? What do you think is in the way of achieving your goals? How can you begin to chart your journey to success? 

The sense of danger must not disappear:

The way is certainly both short and steep,

However gradual it looks from here:

Look if you like, but you will have to leap.

Much can be said for savoir-faire,

But, to rejoice when no one else is there

Is even harder than it is to weep;

No one is watching, but you have to leap.

Our dream of safety has to disappear.

-W.H.Auden, "Leap Before You Look"
