Today will be the winter solstice in Northern Hemisphere, the longest night of the year.
You will have plenty of time to have fun, sleep, read, work hard, play harder and... think about what matters to you.
So today's coaching question is about getting inspired.
Do you wait for inspiration to come to visit you in order to do your best work and follow up, or do you go for the hard work, while knowing that inspiration will follow?
["That inspires me" is a precious acknowledgment,
something to take note of and to cherish over time]
What type of inspiration can motivate you and keep you going while pursuing your dreams?
If you know it already, do these suggestions ring a bell for you, and how? How many? When?
