Loyalty means the state or quality of being loyal; faithfulness to commitments or obligations. This is whether we are talking about love, family, friends and employees. One major problem is that people are not seen as valued in some cases. Think about all the folks unemployed and layed off who have been loyal for years to their employers. It’s a tough pill to swallow for people to work somewhere for what feels like forever. We can all be replace no matter how good of a job you do.

Now, when it comes to love,family and friends being loyal really counts. In my mind if you can’t be loyal then you don’t deserve to be a part of ones life. We all know lovers, friends and even co-workers that will turn on you at the drop of a dime. Most of the time it has NOTHING to do with you. People who are truly unhappy, jealous, and or have little self esteem are the ones to watch out for.

Remember, stay true to yourself and stay strong when people let you down. I have been there and survived much worse. Again, when one door closes another door opens! WOO HOO!

My life has been very busy for the past year. I’ve been working close to 55 hours a week at my full time job. I used to blog everyday and need to get back to being CoachMarcie. Most of my coaching has been working with groups to help empower women to overcome their fears and reach for their dreams. I am now working with World Pulse as a mentor for a great pilot program.

Now, is the time for me to focus on myself and my clients. There has been a shift in my career that has me at the fork in the road. Which way do I go? I am a firm believer that when one door closes another one opens. So I pledge to my followers and myself to get back on track. Someone said to me “you’re a coach so therefore I should have my shit together”. I just rolled my eyes and laughed. I’m just like everyone else getting caught up in life but I have the will to move forward without looking back.

It is rare that I would suggest a book about dieting but I just have to share. Bethenny Frankel new book Naturally Thin is all about changing you view about food. I adore her on Housewives of NY as the sassy single women. The book is easy to read, honest and funny.

My own coaching is about changing patterns and old behavior and this book is all about getting you butt in gear and just doing it.

I have recently been asked to be a Mentor for World Pulse. The organization is a new international women’s correspondent program and network. It’s time to give back. The founder of WorldPulse is JENSINE LARSEN and below is her message to all and why to join this organization.

Founder’s Message

Our voices and visions will transform the future.

“I want to tell my story.”
“I have a vision, but I need some support to realize it.”
“I want space to collaborate and make a difference.”

Everywhere I go, I hear these similar yearnings from women over and over again.

I arrived in the Amazon at the age of 19, determined to become a journalist. There, I listened to indigenous women struggling to protect their land from oil contamination, and later I worked with women refugees on the war-torn Burma-Thailand border. Since then, traveling around the world as an international journalist and founding World Pulse, I constantly find myself asking women what they need to realize their visions.

By watching countless women accomplish amazing things I have learned that it is entirely possible for us to achieve our visions—and I believe that these visions have the potential to change the world.

I notice that when we speak our visions out loud, they come alive—whether we want to start a business, change a law, feed our children or find our purpose in life. Often, we simply need to connect to the right support network to make it happen.

We are creating PulseWire as a place where we can come together make our visions a reality. On PulseWire we have the power to build an unstoppable global community of women — a community with outstretched hands, supporting each other’s dreams and together, transforming the future.

Join us. Add YOUR voice. We’re listening.

Does being a dating coach mean that you have no issues with your relationships? We all have demons in our closets and are not perfect. For me, as a coach my own relationship issues do not come into play when I’m working with clients.

I was a caller on a radio show this week with a famous coach. I chose to ask for some advice from an expert about the direction my coaching was going in. I did not call in to discuss my own 3 year relationship but that was the focus on the call. I was pre-screened so I thought I would knew how the call would go.

My strenghts are working with clients that are having trouble in their relationships or dating. Is the fact that I have never been married and had my own issues affect how I coach? I think not but I could be wrong. I’d like to hear from the folks out there what you think? So please comment on my blog as I will remain totally open minded.

No matter what you think there is so much to be thankful for. I know this time of year can be hard for some people and you must try and stay as positive as possible.
Be grateful for the following:
Each Day
Each experience whether good or bad
Your present health
Your family
Your friends
Your job
Each time you laugh or cry
Making the most out of life
Accepting love in your life
Staying positive
Not taking on others negative energy

Believe it or not there are a lot of single people that are happy. If you can stay in the present and not look back or too far forward you can find inner peace. It is only when you look back or wish your life was different in the moment that kicks your butt each and every time.

I don’t live in the past anymore because I can’t change a thing and actually I wouldn’t want to. I’m here now in this moment and can visualize all I want in my life. I don’t say things like “I want or I need”. Instead I imagine what I desire as if it already exist.

So, be happy if you’re single at the moment and embrace the here and now. Live your life and all good things will come in due time.

The ex factor is plan and simple to me since I have been on both sides. It is very rare that two people who were in love and intimate to be just friends when they split up. I’m not saying it can’t work but it’s hard. Some feeling just never go away and it can get in the way of a new relationship. If both parties are involved with other people it could work. It takes a secure person and a lot of trust to be OK with the ex in the picture.

Does the attraction and chemistry just go away? We are all human and have to be honest about the law of attraction with the ex. I can be honest and say that it took years for me to stop wanting to get back together with a long lost boyfriend. For both of us it was just to know we could have each other again. Old wounds exposed and resurfacing is not all that much fun.

So, just ask yourself the basic question of why is this so important to cling onto the ex. And aren’t you just fooling yourself….

I found a great tool to help create and organize you life and work. It is called The Bubble Planner. It’s a daily, weekly and monthly planner for your hopes, dreams and goals. I know that in the world of PDA’s we all want to go paperless. My feeling is when you are planning tasks to improve your life you need to use a pen and paper. I personally need to touch and see my action plan.

The bottom line is this planner will keep you on track with goal setting. The best part is having a plan for your wishes, hopes and dreams.
