Welcome to the Icatalyst, LLC Blog!
Icatalyst in Living Action…
As a coaching and consulting firm we focus our efforts on helping clients break through barriers and limiting beliefs in order to effectuate the change they want in their life, work and/or business. In our mind, whether the client is an individual or a corporation, the work is the same. It is about creating positive change. The only differences that exists among clients, whatever the type, are the methodologies we use to help our clients reach their desired outcome. We always begin by creating a safe space to allow change to happen. We encourage and empower our clients to listen and hear what is going on internally in order to uncover the choices that will work best for their end-goal. Finally, together our team helps clients identify and prioritize strategies that will move them to a desired outcome. Always, as we enter into a relationship with our clients, the working assumption is that each entity is already resourceful and whole. Our job at Icatalyst, LLC is to help those who cross out path remember, believe and tap into that fundamental truth. By identifying, tailoring and using the appropriate tools and resources at our disposal, we help our clients to create the changes that matter most to them.
Our intention for starting this blog is to create an online community that allows us to communicate with existing and future customers about issues of personal and organizational development, human potential and the journeys we take as we strive to clarify and live a life of purpose. We want to hear your thoughts about these issues at they play out in your world. Hopefully, you will help our community to grow by encouraging your friends and colleagues to post their comments for discussion. Over the next while I also look forward to sharing my thoughts and general impressions about issues of change and the process of transition, and human development. Over ten years ago, I began a journey that would help me uncover my life purpose. As I have gone around the country and even the world, and talked about living a life of purpose, I have found that many people have benefited from the ideas I have shared. I look forward to sharing some of these thoughts with you in the coming weeks. Much of what I have done over the past ten years has been to slowly peel the layers of what living a life of purpose means for me. I have now reached a point where I can unerringly state that my life purpose and best gift is helping others uncover and live their truth — their passion.
Everyone on earth is here for a reason. We each have a purpose, something that we are here to learn and also to contribute to the world. In my practice as a coach and consultant, I often see clients, many that others would consider very professionally accomplished and successful, who say that they know they’re here for something greater than currently exists in their life. They just don’t know what it is. My job is to help them reconnect with the part of themselves that does know — the part that has always known what they are here to do. My belief and experience tell me that that on some level we do know the answer(s) to this burning question. The impediment to articulating it is often in the fact that the answer doesn’t always come in concrete terms like I am here to be a carpenter, doctor, pilot or hospital administrator. Sometimes it may. More commonly though, the answer comes to us through larger ideas like I want to help children, the poor, alleviate sickness, create communities of peace around the world. All those are grand ideas with very broad impacts. The challenge we face in discerning a purpose is to look at the broad concepts we have or sense about ourselves and match them against our skills, talents, specific orientations and interests. The idea is to make the intangible tangible. After all, our purpose is expressed in action. It is not simply a state of being or living. It is in living action that purpose is expressed.
Let me know what you think. Until next time…
