11. Transformative Affirmation: I Am Open To Life's Lessons

Life is full of twists and turns, and major transitions like a career change can be challenging. We all encounter moments of frustration, mistakes, and unforeseen obstacles. But what if we viewed these challenges as opportunities for growth and self-discovery?<br/><br/>In this transformative episode of the Mindful Career Change Podcast, host Valerie Mekki shares valuable insights on how to shift our perspective during challenging times. Rather than falling into a spiral of self-blame or giving up, she encourages listeners to ask powerful questions: "What am I learning here? What is life trying to teach me?"<br/><br/>By adopting this mindfulness practice, we can break free from negativity and find new dimensions of ourselves. Every setback becomes a chance to learn more about yourself and an opportunity to gain personal and professional growth.  <br/><br/>Show Notes and Timestamps:<br/><br/>[00:00:11] Intro to episode<br/><br/>[00:00:42] Intro to affirmation<br/><br/>[00:01:11] What do you do when life throws a curveball at you?<br/><br/>[00:01:56] Asking the right questions to ourselves <br/><br/>[00:03:18] Begin the affirmation<br/><br/>[00:03:29] Start with a body scan<br/><br/>[00:03:46] Memorize the affirmation<br/><br/>[00:04:27] Recite the affirmation out loud<br/><br/>[00:05:07] Visualize the affirmation in action<br/><br/>[00:06:14] End of affirmation<br/><br/>[00:07:07] How to make your affirmations sticky<br/><br/>[00:08:05] End<br/><br/>Curious to learn how to make your affirmations sticky?
