Balance Is The Key To Your Happiness Business Coach-Los Angeles, Pasadena To attain the happiness you desire, you need to approach your life in a balanced way, giving attention to all areas of your life – not just financial, but intellectual, emotional, spiritual and physical. Happiness comes naturally when you have all these areas of your life in balance. If your life consists of waking up exhausted, skipping breakfast, rushing off to work, working through lunch, coming home late at night and crashing into bed – only to repeat it all again five hours later – then that is not a recipe for happiness.

Perhaps the most important benefit to developing a relationship with a coach is to help you build self-awareness. A coach that uses experiential and reflective processes that will enable you to increase your awareness, learn your internal obstacles so you can lead from the inside out.

Lead- From the inside out The only thing we fully control is ourselves: our mindset, our behavior, and our response to things as they happen. The more we investigate inside ourselves, the more impact that has on people and events around us. It only makes sense to take a really long look at ourselves. What’s working, and what’s not, what is good things we could continue or what we would like to change or be...
