Complete Game Plan

Part 1 True acceptance of ourself doesn't mean dismissing your actions or motives, it means allowing yourself to see the path in which your behaviors are processed, motivated and acted upon. This is done without judgement from unrealistic self expectations of how we should think, process or act. The acceptance comes from a place that we are flawed and do make mistakes, not just now but always. This allows us to be OPEN to our perception of the world. Thus, creating a develop...ment model of growth. An example of such growth happens in a normal occurrence when possibly triggered by our significant other. Let's say they activate a reactive behavior within us after making us feel disrespected, less than or not worthy. This emotional response is subtle but ingrained in our inner narrative and defense mechanisms. So now I have been triggered by my mate and I respond in an angry fashion, possibly making them feel less than with shame. Now we have two individuals triggered and communicating is in a heightened negative state. Unless the two individuals can walk away and take a break, this will almost certainly end in a bleak manner..... Let's say that we didn't walk away and it was a heated exchange with some hurtful comments. Now we walk away with some regret and intense emotion. Once the dust settles we can manage this in a multitude of ways. Tomorrow I will continue the discussion and explore the 3 possible scenarios that we most typically encounter when managing this typical exchange. #mindset #positivemindset #selfawareness #lifecoach #self #vulnerability #best #great #trueself #psychotherapy #psychology #counseling #mentalhealth #happiness #living #fulfillment @maverick_deutsch @psych_today @good_therapy @americanpsychologicalassoc @menshealthmag @psychologyfact_ @lifecoachleads #completegameplan

Life's not easy no matter who you are. We all have our own individual struggles, our own stories, moments of celebration among moments of despair. Even though our journey isn't always easy the path to development and happiness lies in our ability to utilize our pain and failures as building blocks of strength. Too many times we use our wounds as evidence of our inability to be great and thus perceive ourselves as less than. We need to use our pain as a pathway to look at ou...rselves as an evolving being. A human that is imperfect and constantly learning....... In the upcoming weeks I will be presenting videos touching on specific issues that address ways to use pain as a positive as well as ways to reduce expectations and negativity that holds us back from achieving our potential. Please feel free to inquire if you have any questions or desire to learn more.

The life journey can be rough at times and no one is immune to this. The greatest struggle in the pain that we might experience is the self blame we inflict on ourselves. The shame model of personal development we have inherited from generation after generation of parenting, casts this perception that if we beat ourselves up enough, we will fix the behavior. It's absolutely contrary! All that does is continue the vicious cycle. Therefore, our road map to growth is self accept...ance and learning to accept our flaws and mistakes. We will never be perfect and once we reduce that expectation of ourself, we can start accepting our true being. The true meaning of loving yourself. #selfcare #selfacceptance #flawed #loveyourself #love #happiness #living #life #lifecoach #fulfillment #mistakes #psychotherapy #therapy #therapist @brunogunn @psych_today @good_therapy @life @menshealthmag @guttman_psychology @barrettpall @sportscenter @latimes #accomplishments #leapoffaith #completegameplan See more

What ever you put in your mind is what you have in your mind. Believe in yourself and you can do anything. Don't limit your potential and dreams by existing in a world of doubt and fear. #positivevibes #strength #positivemindset #living #life #love #loveyourself #happiness #power #creator #joy #confidence #worthy #lifecoach #psychotherapist #therapy #fulfillment #completegameplan

I am posting this clip from my work on Shahs of Sunset to show that it's not easy to be vulnerable yet can be the path to finding your true self. We all have wounds & insecurities that can affect us in life. It's never too late to find support so that you can rid some of these burdens. I hope that I can motivate one person to make that leap and find that guidance/support to gain more understanding and happiness in life. I truly wish everyone happiness.
