1. Break Free From Your Old Self
The first step is to get rid of your old self. This implies you must cease dwelling in the past and begin living in the present. As a result, it might be difficult, but it is doable.
Here are some techniques for breaking free from your old self:
-Identify your old self. What are the thoughts, feelings, and behaviours that define your old self?
-Challenge your old beliefs. Why do you believe that these thoughts, feelings, and behaviours are true? Are they true?
-Create a new story. How would you like to see yourself? What are the qualities that you would like to embody?
-Take action. Begin to live as if you are the person that you want to be.
My client was fighting to get out from under the weight of her previous self. She felt trapped in her past and couldn’t seem to advance. This lady was enraged, intolerant, and rancorous.
I assisted her in breaking free from her old self by asking her why she thought these thoughts, feelings, and behaviours were real. I inquired whether they were real.
We discussed how her old self was preventing her from living a happy life. As result, she concluded that her old self was no longer serving her.
Moreover, she decided to let go of her previous self and gain a new one based on love, pleasure, and tranquillity. She is now living a wonderful life doing things she loves.

3. Meet your needs. This may mean that you need to make some changes in your life. It may mean that you need to let go of relationships or situations that are no longer serving you well.
A client I mentored was having problems loving herself. She felt like she wasn’t good enough all the time, and that she needed to accomplish more. I guided her through determining what she required to feel cherished and supported. I asked her what she needed to feel happy and content. She realised that she needed time for herself, to be appreciated, and to feel as if she were making a difference in the world.
We focused on giving her permission to have these needs and as best as possible meeting them. The lady took more time for herself, she started to value herself more, and she felt as if she was making a difference in the world.

5. Convert Your Past Challenges into Strengths with Gratitude
When you are feeling down and don’t know how to get out from stressful state of mind-practice gratitude.
In three simple steps, you can convert your past challenges into strengths:
1. Identify your strengths and write them down-Everyone has strengths. You may be good at organizing, writing, math, public speaking, etc. Then, write down your strengths so you can remember them when you don’t feel strong.
2. Give yourself permission to be proud of your strengths-Don’t be ashamed of your accomplishments. Give yourself credit for overcoming obstacles and being resilient.
3. Thank those who have helped you become who you are today. Thank your parents, friends, mentors, and anyone else who has helped you become the person you are today. Acknowledge their role in your life and express your gratitude.
As an example-there was this client that joined my coaching sessions as he was dealing with his past. His problem was a belief that couldn’t move on because of all the problems he’d had in life. This person was thankful for what he had but could not seem to forget about the suffering he’d endured.
Next, I helped him turn his failures into assets by teaching him how to be grateful for what he had. He became more aware of the positive aspects of his life and began to feel better. The client was able to thank those who had helped him become who he was today and soon realized that he had the strength to overcome anything. What an inspiration!
6. Give Yourself the Gift of Forgiveness
In my Take Action Transformational Program, I offer three steps to forgive self and others that anyone can do.
–Step one is identifying the offence or problem.
-Step two is accepting responsibility for it.
–Step three is to practice empathy towards yourself or the other person .
One client I coached referred my coaching program to their friend and he joined my Take Action Now Program. His problem was his father’s harsh treatment for years and that he felt trapped in his father’s mistakes. As we started working, we concentrated on step one by recognising the wrongs done to my client by his father and forgiving him for them. This allowed my client to concentrate on steps two and three, which helped him release any bitterness he was feeling. Because of this, he was able to envision a bright future with his father and appreciate all that he had learnt from him. At last, my client was able to live his life with meaning and enjoy it more.
