Negotiation – do you know what is needed?

Do you understand the basic needs of NEGOTIATION?

A daily conversation of negotiation takes place for all of us – from a simple unaware state (eg, what time do you want dinner?) to a formal meeting for the known purpose (eg changing the timetable for shift workers, or settling a chronic dispute.)

To consciously negotiate we need at least two people – though some may argue we can negotiate with ourselves!

Those involved must wish to reach a settlement, and choose to be honest and open about their requirements.

Those involved must also be willing and able to satisfy the needs of the other, not need to be following another’s dictate.

There will be interests in common and interests in conflict, and there must be appreciation of this before an approach is made.

And importantly, those involved  must be ready to compromise.

If there is total agreement about the targets or problems involved, and no actual conflict, then this will lead to a harmonious conversation, and is not negotiation! You may be attempting in fact to have the other totally agree with you, without listening to their needs and reasons why. It is because there are conflicting interests that the need for negotiation arises. And the acceptance that compromise will be required.

Quote from Einstein to encourage you in the search for improvement of our situations – and why hiring a Life Coach isn’t a bad idea! – “We can’t use the same kind of thinking we used when we created them” (the problems, situations, issues etc).

Learn to become resilient to pressure and change to the “norm”

An important part of self growth which includes your responses to those you work and live with on a daily basis. Everyone is challenged, everyone faces Change. There are skills to learn and use to benefit your Wellbeing through tough times, but also in daily living. It is easy to continue in patterns and habits of learned unchallenged behaviour. It is an excellent way forward to solve problems and reduce stresses – that lead to moroe problems if left untackled.

Life Coaching addresses these situations. It’s also important to have the right nutrients in your system to back these stratergies.

Winter is an excellent time to address these issues and come through in much better shape. If you have Self Esteem you will confront these head on to achieve your best results.

Quote to inspire

TEACHING is more than impoarting knowledge – it is inspiring CHANGE

LEARNING is more than absorbing facts, it is acquiring UNDERSTANDING.

These good words were put together by William Ward. These good words are put together in action at Coaching NorthWest via Life Coaching, Stress Management, Nutritional Advice, Holistic Therapies. You learn, and aquire and understand – and BENEFIT! Your needs for Change are important – and it is important to fulfill your Life by acting on those needs!

A Happy Heart…….have you? and how do we get one?

A happy heart is a healthy heart.

Happiness and joy result from taotal accerptance of living in the present moment.

So, if you are not happy, or not happy enough – do you understand the concept of living in the present moment, or has your Life Situation prevented this type of thinking?

We are born to be happy, content, joyous. Sometimes Life knocks us sideways. Sometimes it sneaks up on us that we are actually, anxious, unhappy, feeling lonely in how we are thinking. Stuck in a rut, but badly wanting to CHANGE.

How do we do that?

To expand then, have fun in living, and grow knowingly as a content individual, enjoying our own thinking……we need always to be aware. If that awareness creates discomfort, it’s time for some new habits, techniques and skills maybe, and new perceptions.  Life Coaching, Life Support, Removing Anxieties – call it what you will, frees you up to develop a happier existence.

Happy People are those……….

The happiest people are those who carefully think through WHO they are, WHAT they want, WHERE they are going. And, then decided on WHAT they NEED TO DO to get to their GOAL.

These are recognised facts.  So get to the LIFE COACHING and give yourself what you deserve, a HAPPY EXISTENCE, that copes with what life challenges you to.  Anne Russell will give you the techniques and ways through – it’s getting your day-to-day things right that make all that difference!

A successful Habit = a successful Person

REACTIVE people ar driven by circumstances (as per the petrol scare). They are driven by feelings (fear, anxiety). They are driven by conditions (don’t like who they work with). They are driven by environment (prefer to overuse alcohol/drugs to forget their situations).

PRO-ACTIVE people are able to quell an impluse which may do themselves or another, harm. They are driven by values – thought about, and chosen to guide their behaviour and responses.

This then creates a successful Person. Successful in who they are, which will reflect in all else around them.

If you are stuck in REACTIONS perhaps it’s time to consider learning how to be PRO ACTIVE?

Are you included in these Stats?

According to the latest research, half the population of Britain have made the resolution to lose weight and/or eat more healthily, at the top of the year.

By February – guess what – almost a quarter of these have broken and given up on their resolution.

10% feel depressed because they haven’t made it.
11% feel depressed because their clothes have become and stayed too tight after too much festive indulgence and over eating
14% feel depressed and worried about putting more weight on.

This is all very negative of course. The point of change and improvement when comes when the brain is shown how to reverse those stats. If you are one of these people you need to start now to reverse your trend, to gain the reward and benefits of the resolution you made in the first place!
