Fall Behind – Season of Change |

Fall Behind – Season of Change

Daylight Saving Time (or summertime as it is called in some countries) is a way of getting more light out of the day. To make it easier to remember which way the clock goes, we’ve learned to keep in mind the little expression, “Spring forward, Fall behind.” But the daylight isn’t all we’re trying to squeeze more out of.

We often view Spring as a time of cleaning, sorting, new openings; Summer as open-armed, vacations and care-free expression; Fall (Autumn) as a time to wrap up business deals and batten down the hatches for colder weather, but also for quieter, reflective time and the family engagements of Winter. Fall signals our year is fast coming to a close and we scurry to gather in the projects and ideas for the balance of the year and bring them to a comfortable resolution so we don’t feel as if WE’RE falling behind.

I’ve noticed new clients appear as Fall emerges, particularly to take part in the quicker process that is the Positive Thinking Way work. They want to remove limiting beliefs and focus on building their confidence, communication and leadership abilities that will clear the way for them to make necessary final changes. Most of my coaching clients are completing work deals and making career improvements, but are planning with me now for the new year when they’ll make their career transitions or shift their entrepreneurial businesses into a whole new form.

May you experience this season as a time to comfortably bring to a close certain goals, ideas and projects and include planning for what you’d like to see come next. And may you experience that you are gently “Falling Forward,” and not “Behind,” as your heart embraces the beauty of this changing season.
