Thinking about things in a realistic way allows us
to make better decisions and to take action more effectively.
Attuning ourselves to reality can bring out the best
in us and can enhance the quality of our relationships.
When we base our thinking on the reality of a situation,
our emotions can correspond appropriately to the situation
and can be expressed approprately as well.
When our thoughts become distored, falling away from
their grounding in reality, it often becomes difficult
to find the best course of action to take when making
decisions. We cling to distored thoughts, we limit
our options and our decisions often lack a basis in
reality. This can lead us to feel helpless, anxious,
and hopeless when trying to deal with real-world issues.
We may find ourselves falling into the same bad situation
repeatedly, never really learning from the lessons
of the past.
Let’s look at a number of ways in which
we may engage in distorted thinking.
We seldom question how we think. Our thinking is an
integral part of our daily experience. It may never
occur to us that our feelings, our moods, and the way
we deal with situations, and how we handle our relationships
are very dependent on the clarity of our thinking.
Many people use coaching as a way of exploring ways
in which to think more clearly about things.
I help clients work out solutions according to individual
values and lifestyles.
I have a few spots still available for August coaching.
