The Journey 

Our offering  falls in a variety of themes…

Awakening:

Where one is stuck, confused, unclear, at a loss, shattered, broken,… and life is just too hard and overwhelming, where to, and meaning becomes a theme.

We come alongside and with gentleness and “balm” find new possibilities where you emerge as if from a cocoon into new possibilities.   This phase/theme is awakening possibilities

Unfolding

Here you know what you want and have an idea. The idea of the new possibility takes shape.  We start seeing what the broad strokes are that need to be in place to make the possibility an actuality.  It is here that the various stages are identified, the big things that need to happen. 

I am of the generation that was there when man landed on the moon.  So if metaphorically the idea of landing on the moon was the possibility, the unfolding would be the steps – circling the globe, tracking and guidance systems, getting out of the space vehicle, the luner lander,  etc… and each of these big steps need to be ticked off to make the journey to the moon and back safely. (its kind of the broad strokes plan.)

Empowering/ Building/Forming

This is the preparation stage. Here we start building the various parts and testing them. (The prototype, the presentation, the costing, the marketing.  This stage could also include new learning and skill development.) This is the preparing for the next phase which is flight.

Ignite, Flight

Here we are doing the thing that gets us to the possibility.  The plan is in place and works, the machine/vechicle is in place and works.  It is implementation, monitoring, tweaking, getting back on course, focus – “doing the idea”  This phase is the rocket flying to a specific moon landing date.  All the elements are working, the liftoff, the booster rocket, the luner lander and lunar launch, the space suits,  the systems, the checks and balances.  You are now in full operations mode.  Now we can make multiple flights to the moon and back.

Celebrate

Here we recognize achievement, we have achieved the possibility that we set out to reach. The large rewards and recognition come in this phase.

People often come to us in crisis when things are not going well OR they come when they are ready to go to the next level of value giving.

Ulrich says "Crisis is a terrible thing to waste.  Fortunately, when crisis stop us in our tracks they may also make us stop and think.  Crisis can shock us into facing the questions we often sidestep. "Who am I? What am I trying to accomplish? What really makes me happy? What do I believe? What is my purpose? What matters most?

 Some will seek us out when they have a possibility and don’t know how to bring it to reality, some will seek us out when they feel “lost” and in an undefined space, some will seek us out when they have a great business going and it is time to move from technician to CEO to change the dynamic of “the business only works with me” to “the business runs well without me and I now have time freedom and financial to not be tied exclusively to the business. – to journey to my unexplored portions of this beautiful planet.”

If this is still not defined enough, Our invite to you is, come lets get together to explore and discover what value we can add to your possibility. You will be pleasantly surprised.

Philosophical Foundations

TURNAROUND THEN TRANSFORMATION

In turnaround there is the focus of fixing or overcoming what is wrong often in the deficit in our lives, time money and our sense of well being.

In transformation the focus shifts on building what is right. Abundance thinking. In transformation, greater emphasis must be put on creating meaning and wellbeing to capture imagination and shape future behavior.

Overcoming deficits builds the agenda of abundance.

At ABUNDANT  POSSIBILITIES we emphasize the journey which includes short term fixes but is more interested in longterm sustainability.  We take people on a journey where with mentoring, counseling, coaching and educating,  we walk alongside people to ensure that the habits of  wellbeing in business and personal life bring sustainable increases in abundance and possibilities.

DISCOVERING WELLBEING

Abundance is not found in circumstances or events - in how big a raise we got or how many people report to us.  Abundance is found in the value we place on those events and the way we interpret their impact on us.

Wellbeing of our lives is not controlled by what happens. That's the good news.  The bad news is that we have to work at the meaning and wellbeing making process... Inner dialogues shape and construct this meaning.

The largest value of the ABUNDANT POSSIBILITIES Enrichment Projects lies in the journey of wise mentor/coaches alongside you over a period of time.  All growth and sustainability doesn't happen overnight and although we live in a world of quick fixes, we believe in taking a person from "infancy to adulthood or anywhere in-between" (their now to sustainable wellbeing) through life's journey to competency and abundance.  Skills, strengths, talent and knowledge  take time to develop into excellence that results in the customer getting more value than they initially thought they would. (the employer is a customer)

This is not an overnight process.  Michelangelo didn’t become a master sculptor overnight. He walked alongside his teachers and mentors for years as he developed his talent and skills.  He got better as he practiced his art-form. We have somehow lost this developmental journey in our rush to instant wealth.
