Hello, hello, and welcome to the Borealis

experience. I'm your host Aurora, life coach and companion

on this beautiful journey called life. I'm so happy to be

spending some time with you. Thank you so much for being

here, I deeply appreciate you and wish you well, and hope I

can bring you value and goodness, honesty and hope into

your life. I was gonna say positivity. But positive is not

only a positive thing. Sometimes we just got to allow our

emotions to come out, we have to allow it to be honest. And

that's not always positive. I'm more a fan of raw and authentic.

So today, I want to talk about decision making my podcast

wouldn't feel complete. If I was not to address this topic, it is

so incredibly important to get to know yourself first. In order

to know what you need and want in life, what kind of people do

you want around you? What kind of job do you want, and what is

the overall environment that is going to make you thrive and

grow and blossom. Decision making plays a huge part in our

lives. We have big decisions that we make. And we have small

decisions that we make on a daily basis on an hourly basis.

And they're equally important because the small decisions,

they compound, right, they add up. And if you make lots of

shady small decisions, well don't wander that the big

outcome is also not going to be all too awesome. So there's two

ways you can approach a decision. And I've learned that

a couple of years ago, when I first got into learning about

coaching, and it is the approach number one, deciding away from

something. And number two, deciding making a decision to

awards, something or someone. So if I can give you an example

here, number one, making a decision away from something

means, for instance, I will meet up with my friend this

afternoon, because I'm sick and tired of being alone of feeling

lonely. So I'm making this decision based on something I

want to move away from. And I'm going to give you the counter

example here and then you will see and feel already, if you

haven't already in my tone and my voice that it is a huge

difference. Both from the outside. Both decisions look

like there's the same outcome, the same feeling the same

notion, but it is very, very different. So example number two

is going to be I'm going to meet up with my friend. Because with

her, I always have a hell of a time. We have a great time. We

have fun. I'm excited to see her. I'm excited to share my

latest news with her. And it is just awesome to spend time with

her. So again, decision number one was I'm deciding to meet up

with my friend because I'm sick and tired of being alone. I'm

moving away from my loneliness and meet up with my friend who's

going to compensate for that. Example number two is I am

desiring to meet up with my friend because As I know, we're

going to have a great time.

A second example would be that person that's called her

Ireenie. Ireenie is moving abroad. She's moving the ad to

England, from Canada, because she's sick and tired of politics

and the weather and Canada. She has relatives in England and

moves there. Example number B, or two would be, I have really

desires to move back in with her mom, because she's sick and she

feels she wants to take care of her. She wants to be close to

her. And, yeah, she's going to move away from Canada, to

England, because she feels she has a purpose in England. So I

hope those examples were clear enough. I hope I got the point

across that there's two different ways in approaching

decision making. And please, if there is a third option, or

fourth option coming up that I'm not addressing here, feel free

to shoot me a message and we can certainly talk about it. But

yeah, let's let's keep it to these two today. Moving away or

moving towards something. Now, you can certainly imagine that

if I move towards something I desire, I have an open heart,

I'm excited. Then my energy, my engagement, my excitement, my

you know aliveness is going to be way up there, instead of me,

moving away from something. And don't get me wrong, this doesn't

mean that one is better than the other it is, it is just

incredibly interesting. To get to know your mind a little

better. And to find out how you make decisions, I could

certainly come up with more examples here. But I think you

got the point. And it is just very interesting to find out how

you make decisions, because it will help you in the future. To

make decisions that are geared towards your highest intentions

towards your dreams, your goals, because it is this way that you

can then influence how fast or if at all, you are moving

towards your dreams and goals. If we keep saying no to

situations that would, you know, bring us closer to our goals. Or

if we keep saying yes to situations that drive us away

from our goals. It is very, very, very important to notice

these things. And I want to give you a little bit of a homework

here, I want you to let's say over the next week, maybe even

over the next two weeks. Observe how you make decisions. Do you

go to the fridge? And eat because you are hungry? And

decide to eat? Or is it because you want to avoid low sugar? And

yeah, we gotta eat on a daily basis and you don't really care

what you're going to eat? Are you gonna make decisions in the

future that you move away from or to awards to? And then go

even further and observe the people around you and see how

people make decisions. It is incredibly important to know how

the people around you function in order to be there for them in

order to connect deeply with them. And if you find that

little bit about them, then that was weird English. If you find

that a little bit about them. If you find out more about them,

then they might be aware of themselves. It's just a fun,

fun, engaging conversation that you can have with a person that

you care about. So

check in with you yourself once you switch to a different

podcast, or maybe go about your life or maybe fall asleep and

share with me, how do you make decisions? And yeah, that is it

for today. I hope I hope you're good. I hope you're good. I hope

that I can be a little bit of a stepping stone on your journey

towards healing and that I'm able to give you provide you

tools that help you to get closer to the person you want to

be. You're supposed to be and closer to your dreams and your

goals. Alright, I will be out there very soon again. I'm very

excited to be launching my website here soon Aurora Eggert

coaching.com where there will be a little quiz, fun and revealing

at the start. And yeah, I'm just excited for you to explore and

to find out more about my business that I've been working

on for the last year. All right. I leave you on this note and

yeah, take good care of yourself.
