Successful Life Starts with Balance
Life balance is undoubtedly a topic that all coaches work with. The main reason is because the concept of life balance is often the root of other problems experienced by individuals. Women have to wear so many hats and to juggle so many different balls that we often forget about ourselves. There are times when we work incessantly only to go home and have to deal with a lot of other responsibilities. Or we work a job that is only good enough to pay the bills (if that) but not necessarily a job that we feel really strong and passionate about.r

Motivation is Key if you want to Achieve
These days we are all exposed to a lot. We are constantly attacked by uncertainty, negativity...fears. We find lack of motivation, stress and even depression in people we know and places we are familiar with.

Why do people lose motivation? What are the main reasons for so many people to lose the drive and inspiration they need to reach their goals? Well, here are a few:

Are you committed to your goals? If so show determination!
We have all been there. We have been frustrated by what appears to be failure to meet our goals. In reality, those apparent failures could be your inner voice putting you to test. When you think back to goals you have set for yourself, have you realized how easy or how soon you can fall of track? After losing 80+ lbs I know what it means to fall off….but like I tell my daughter, the idea is not to fall and stay on the ground. You have fallen, now what?

Be Clear About Your Goals; Write them down and Embrace the Possibilities
In my work as a coach I work with multiple kinds of individuals. I find that most people want to achieve something, very few are not seeking growth in an area of their lives. When I ask what is it that you want; many times I get a blank stare in the face. This question is key in order to move forward with any goal in our life. Positive thinking is one of those techniques that I use and that I recommend clients. The main reason is because when you think positive,you think possibilities and 'possibilities' thinking allows you to embrace all the potentials of what life has to offer.

Shift your mindset around the concept of money and attract more
What comes to mind when you think about “money”? I find that the concept of money and its significance varies from person to person depending on who you ask. When it comes to money, I think it is safe to assume that this is one of those topics, or values that have either a positive or negative connotation depending on the individual’s personal experience, background and baggage.

Tips for Successful Living: Do's and Don'ts
We all live our life very differently. Although we quickly learn to react to our environment based on our own experiences and upbringing, each of us is different and therefore, will apply our own learning towards what I sometimes call the ’survival’ game. We move day in and day out, sometimes in pilot mode. We are so accustomed to our regular routine, that we forget that there is more to life…plus, we don’t miss what we’ve never had, right?

Tired? Stressed? Try these 3 techniques this weekend and feel renewed!
“So, how was your weekend?” When asked, many people I know complain about the weekend going by so fast, being so busy with extracurricular or social activities, being exhausted from chores and responsibilities that are often relegated from earlier in the week (or the month) and how they wish that the weekend was 3 days instead of 2.

Want to be like Walt? Apply his Secrets to Success in your Business and in Life
While attending this week’s meeting of the American Business Women's Association, I had the pleasure to listen to motivational speaker Pat Williams.

All our dreams can come true, if we have the courage to pursue them. ~Walt Disney

Be open to Discover, Dream and Design with Appreciative Inquiry
When you study to be a coach, you are influenced by many different theories and philosophies. You learn a lot about values, life purpose, and how to live with integrity. People come to coaching because they want more from their lives. Often, there is a disconnect between what people desire from life and what they are experiencing. Hence, the job of a coach is to help the client gain clarity and during that process, together we explore how to make the most out of life, how to connect with the strengths, values and intrinsic potential that we all possess as human beings.

Is your Professional Image in need of a Make Over?
One of this week’s highlights, was a meeting in celebration of Professional Women’s Day. The American Business Women’s’ Association, group of which I am a part of, always provides not only opportunity to network with other professionals but also, they are very deliberate about making personal development an integral part of every meeting’s agenda.

What You Need to Know about Failure so You Can Move On
failure: an act or instance of failing or proving unsuccessful; lack of success (Source: Dictionary.com) I think we all hate to fail, but failure is inevitably a part of life. I have personally felt the pressure to perform and have seen that even when a lot of effort is put forth, the outcome is not always successful. Every time something is at stake, there is a possibility to gain and there is the possibility to lose.

Favorite Quotes & Thoughts from Maria Martinez
I firmly believe that we have the potential and inner desire to live full, satisfying lives however, in the midst of busy lives we often compromise our needs and expectations for that of others. Or simply, sometimes life gets on the way and we end up getting stuck in a situation we no longer want or enjoy.
I am inspired by the book Feel the Fear and Do It Anyway by Dr. Susan Jeffers. I am also passionate about work by Brian Tracy and Dr. Wayne Dyer. The time is now, it is about making the decision to push forward and to make things happen. I love to work with individuals that are already performing to some extent, but that are stuck and may need a little push to achieve more than they ever thought possible.
