Yes to being positive, but this is just life very often. Things don't work out and at times it may even seem as if everything's set up against you. I don't believe in destiny or that "everything happens for a reason". It's a comforting thought that on some level everything makes sense, but what if the world and existence is simply absurd at times. Not everything has to make sense or work out all the time. That's okay. In fact it makes our lives more exciting & let's us appreciate the good times Gifs, Agent Of Change, Everything Happens For A Reason, Make Sense, Talk To Me, Our Life, Personal Development, Destiny, Laughter

It's tough living with paradox. There will always be some conflicting voices inside of us drawing us in different directions. Coaching can help to create the roght balance or e.g. enjoy your work more but some of the fundamental existential conflicts will always remain. Try to embrace them as the stuff that makes you human and (on further reflection) may just be the sort of thing that make life "exciting".

Sorry, Stu. That's not how death works. While holding on to that fantasy will make you feel better, living with your eyes open to some of the grim realities will provide more meaning in your life.

Most of us underestimate what's possible, what we can achieve once we put our mind to something, fully commit and persevere through the speed bumps, challenges and failing-our-way-to-success sort of obstacles. Ingrained in existential thought is the idea that we are ultimately free to do whatever we want as long as we accept the risks and consequences. All that's holding us back is fear & anxiety. We just love being comfortable and saty with what we know. So we stay where we are. It's a choice!

"Growth can only occur in a state of discomfort." Bill Eckstrom's message lies at the heart of positive existential coaching. If you want to change and achieve some great results you better start seeing the value in anxiety and discomfort. Too many people try to grow fast and live comfortably at the same time. It's impossible! Rewarding as it may feel afterwards, it takes some courage to get there. Great talk and powerful story.

Louis CK with a powerful example of what I mean when I talk positive existentialism. Stop trying to avoid all the shit that life throws at you. Stop trying to suppress everything that feels "bad". It'll always come back, usually stronger than before. Instead start embracing these feelings as part of being human. If you never felt sad, you wouldn't be able to appreciate happiness. There's a spectrum of what we're going through in life and we can't have one without the other. #ThisIsExistential Louis Ck, Poetic, Grief, Comebacks, Psychology, Interactive

Not-knowing is what makes life exciting. If everything was clear and we knew all the outcomes, we'd be bored out of our minds. It would feel safer in the short-term but would be a curse in the long run.

You're never too old to learn something new. But most of us are so full of limiting beliefs that we don't even consider trying. Yes it takes courage. Yes it may be harder. Yes there are other things you need to juggle or something you would have to let go in exchange. But it's your choice. A coach will support you on that journey - big or small Ted Movie, Film Treatment, Super Cute Dogs, Branded Video, Branded Content, Give Me Strength, Idris Elba, Dog Boarding

"Intelligence plus character,that is the true goal of education" said Martin Luther King. However, most schools leave the latter to chance and see the former as fixed. But we know now how to build character, foster resilience and help children not just to be happy, but to grow into happy adults and make their own informed choices of how they want to approach the future. I think it's time we had personal & social development as an individual school subject. We got a 7 year curriculum. Talk to me!

Learn to embrace uncertainty. It's an inevitable part of life. We tend to wait until we are completely sure that this or that decision is the right one. Fact is that we can never know. Especially when it comes to big life decisions such as jobs or relationships. Nobody can know for sure. But that's what makes life exciting. If it were certain, we'd be bored!

Sometimes the 1st step is the hardest. Sometimes we can't quite see where it'll lead us. Sometimes we can't even see how on earth we would make a start. All we see is the people who are already up there and running and it seems like they've burned the bridges, that the way they took is no longer available for us. I say go a bit closer, walk around, look behind you, explore! If you know where you're going, there's usually a way. YOUR way. A much better way (you will say in hindsight).

We are paradoxical beings with often conflicting wants and needs. Existential thinkers have pointed out the core dilemmas all human beings face as a result of merely being alive in a world with others. Navigating through life and choosing which ones are the right choices never being truly able to know what's right &wrong, that's hard. But it also makes us feel alive! Learn to not just tolerate, but EMBRACE the anxiety, the EXCITEMENT that comes with living a full life with existential coaching.

Alan Watts can speak for himself. But I want to add that his philosophy and thoughts regularly emerge when I coach people. Particularly when clients grapple with where to go in life, how much they focus on outcomes and results as compared to enjoying the process and living in the moment (talking about mindsets and mindfulness).  One of the most important balances we need to create and ultimately choose in life (incl the consequences) is between living in the moment and planning for the future.

Language is powerful and can really help us put things into perspective. Feeling anxious, nervous, worried? You're excited! You're feeling alive, you clearly care about things that are important to you, otherwise you wouldn't give a shit. If you feel "bad", it means you care. And if you care, it means your life has meaning. Existential Coaching helps you to put things into perspective and learn to embrace what you used to avoid.
