Search for emotional peace

During our course we set out to develop as many skills as possible with which to train as a coach. We seek to acquire knowledge through study, we take advantage of mistakes to gain experience and we certainly have achievements, but we are always looking for more. As humans on this path, one of the best and most coveted personal conquests is emotional peace, that state of balance where you are in harmony with who you are and from which no one and nothing can disorient us. We can have an arsenal of possessions, goods, or merits but if we lack emotional peace none of those things will make sense.

Current state and desired state.

We always take everything to an internal analysis of our situation, to detect what worries us, what we are not happy with. A self-evaluation of our current state is always advisable because we are beings that are constantly changing. Knowing our current state we compare it with a standard of desired state, how do we want to feel? Surely this is the beginning to understand that we need a change and we put ourselves in function of what we feel to turn it into a need, they become our internal needs. If our environment is full of turbulence and some anxiety and nonconformity it is logical that we are not experiencing the feeling of emotional peace and that is our search at all times.

Search for balance.

For our profession of Coach it is an indispensable requirement to be in balance because we guide the clients towards a personal growth through emotional improvement, and how could we make them understand something that we do not dominate ourselves. Balance is evident from our pretensions, our priorities and what surrounds us. The people around you are also carriers of balance and build your emotional peace, your family, friends or co-workers. Mainly the couple's relationship plays an important role in our empowerment for decision making; if our relationship does not bring us balance we can hardly assume with responsibility important decisions, and the search for our emotional peace will be involved in a desperate need and not in a conscious act. When we lead a life with emotional balance we are more apt to help others in the search for their own peace.

Needs and wants.

What will really bring me peace? Do I need to have a lot of money? I need to have a big house with luxuries and I think this will bring me peace, have a lot of money so I never have to worry about paying rent, take a vacation trip, are the frequent answers of someone who only sees needs and not wants. It is good to note that need is not the same as desire, in general needs have an urgent character and our state of mind depends on them. On the other hand, desire refers to an idea of conquest through which we organize what we feel and what we want. Many come to blame their situation of emotional peace with the solution of their needs but once they are solved they conclude that they were not the cause of their absence and they propose an endless search.

Connection.

We grow to the rhythm of many things we relate to and mistakenly attribute to it that when we reach a goal we will have calmness, but it works the other way around. As you can imagine, the connection with yourself is important for the search of that emotional peace you desire, to reach our purest center, our defeats, our conquests and dreams. To understand what emotional peace is all about we must accept our defeats, failures and everything that affected us in the past, understand that events come to us with a great teaching or a challenge to test our equanimity and intelligence in the face of life. We end up assuming that the connection between you and the purpose are the solution to peace when what we need we find it where we did not imagine.

Be authentic.

We are beings that live in community, we constantly interact with people and we establish a connection with them through which we contribute and they bring us growth. It is almost inevitable not to be influenced by the way of being
