Go Live Life Well, Ep: 016 – Making it-The Destination
On this GLLW Podcast, Brigette McCoy provides coaching and insight on the strengths and the hazards of creating “time stamps” while planning a future. She creates a dialogue about this process through the metaphor of going on “The Journey”, which is any goal that we have established for ourselves, along with the self-prescribed time stamps to go with it. Through her own personal parable, The LaGuardia Hunger Games, she playfully explains the benefits of balancing hindering time stamps and expectations with the unexpected bonuses of delays on the journey and changes in plan.
As BriGette points out, the biggest value of accepting the detours on our journeys is that the detours provide a great opportunity for personal growth and they can often offer surprising learning experiences that may not have happened if we were not in the wrong place at the right time. Listen in on BriGette’s keen presentation of how to arrive at your “Destination”. Her podcast offers great opportunities to learn about the advantage of flexible time stamps that maximize the joys in the journey and how to make peace with the fact that you may not meet all your goals nor satisfy the time stamps you established.
