You’ve asked the game changing question: How do we stay in love and compassion – for ourselves and others – and still strive for what we want? How do we both achieve and get past our critics? Some ideas I’ve found helpful include staying in a both/and perspective rather than an either/or one, keep brining in even more compassion and understanding that this question is at the heart of our humanity, keep stoking the fires of our inspiration because passion is always a better motivator than obligation. Bringing in humor is one of my favorites as well. We often take ourselves and our situations way more seriously than necessary. How about you? How do you get past your critic, love yourself, all while both falling short and succeeding at achieving your dreams?

Thank you for teaching me more about these strong and resilient birds of prey in such an entertaining fashion… such marvelous lessons for us all!

Yep, I agree with you on the group dreaming of shared vision and holding each other’s dreams. That’s often what coaches do for their clients – hold their dream through all the challenges to attaining them. So I’m in with your story, too. In relationship coaching we recognize that we “dream each other up”, meaning my dream of you influences how I experience you and can shape how you imagine yourself.

And since we enjoy dreaming together, I’m definitely up for the next cool possibility of co-creating. Maybe our next class could be on dreaming.

Okay…now that I got that out of the way …this is such a great topic.
I am gonna play with the idea that maybe we do share dreams. Not in the sleep-time sorta way but in the ‘shared vision’ sort of way. We hold the dreams for each other and that ups the whole vibrational pulse of the dream…at least, that’s how my story goes So, you do group dream in a way….I am holding your vision and you are holding mine and together we are heading to the next cool possibility

Love your writing Christine.
