Creator-based® Compassion
Happy Monday Beth,
Ready for some Monday Morning Inspiration?
A dear friend brought me profound food for thought on the subject of compassion this week. You see, compassion has always been a guilt provoking word for me. I just don’t feel compassionate.
I’m more of a mover and a shaker, and often I don’t think I – gasp! -have time for compassion. The Good Samaritan story? Yeah, I shudder to think I would have passed by the other side, but girlfriend, I have things to do!
Is that you, as well?
I have good news! Compassion is so much more than simple benevolence or love.
There are actually two words in the word compassion.
Compassion = Compass + Passion
A compass guides us on our life journey. It provides purpose and direction. When we know our life purpose and are clear in our direction, we are centered within our life.
Passion is a powerful feeling- indicating love, fierceness, enthusiasm, zeal and fervor. It’s optimistic. What are you really passionate about? family, hobby or work, physical health?
Compassion = life purpose and direction combined with zeal, fervor, & optimism.
How could that create benevolence and love, you ask? Think about it my friend, when you are “in the zone” in your life and things are optimistic and focused on your true purpose, don’t you automatically reach out to serve and help from a place of love? Yeah, me too.
‘cuz it’s like that.
Compassion. It’s a beautiful thing.
You have it, and so do I.
No more guilt!
Just amazing people creating a great impact on the world.
You’ve got this.
Have a great week!
Beth
CMH Coaching for Life
Home of Creator-based Coaching® and the CBC® group experience.
Did you know?
We are forming guided mastermind groups for the winter quarter. The people who join will be matched into groups that are similar in 3 ways. Your group members will have a similar challenge to you, a similar goal and similar circumstances. Sessions are held with two coaches twice a month, at a time that is convenient for your group.
Our goal in Creator-based® Coaching is to train and give you the tools, while you build relationships within your mastermind that help you as a group to outgrow your coach. You can continue as a group of friends helping and supporting one another.
