Better Way To Decide - Head and Heart

Every minute of the day we make hundreds of choices; in fact various internet sources estimate we make about 35,000 remotely conscious decisions every day. We decide what we want to eat, where we want to go, who we want to go with, and ultimately how we want to go about our lives.  Most of our decision making seems relatively unconscious to us, and it's probably a good thing. Just imagine what would happen if our brains had to decide every breath we took, every muscle we moved, or even observe and react to every stimulus change in our environment; how overwhelmed we would be then. 

So to manage this we create automatic, habitual responses to deal with these choices for the most part unconsciously. We create predecided, default decisions about how we will react to specific events around us based on our preferred experiences of our past. This is our neural feedback loop in full swing. This works well for some of the simple repetitive decisions that we make. It works to...

Eliminate Confusion - Make a Plan

Confusion in any area of our lives creates a whole range of negative emotions that hinder our ability to move forward and grow. It activates a problem-solving response in our brains where we try and find a fix or solution to the state we are in.

Feelings like frustration, anger, annoyance or even guilt overwhelm us and arrive in different forms depending on our personal experiences. These feelings then sit firmly in our emotional state as we try to find clarity and move forward with the next steps.

Confusion seems to shows up at the most inappropriate times. The times, when we feel in most need of a solution, and the times where we seem to be experiencing the most pressure, or a sense of personal pain. 

This happens not only in our personal lives, but in our work and business lives also, and can have massive productivity impacts on what we are trying to achieve.

These feelings can drive us to take more immediate and sometimes impulsive action in order...

Your Choice,Your Impact-This Weekend

change choice impact May 16, 2019

This weekend we are all being asked to choose who we want to run the country. If you have ever thought your opinion doesn't count, this is the one time you can be sure it will. Your vote will be counted and represented as the voice of your electorate and there will be a change created because of it, even if that means the seat remains as is, a new term of office will be created. 

Knowing that the choice we make will actually be the final result is another thing though. Not all of our personal preferences are going to be the general consensus, yet that is not a good reason to believe that it won't count. It does and it will be counted and will continue to be the point of significant analysis after the decision has been finalised, to inform the next one.

I know It takes effort to understand who stands for what, and what they propose to accomplish on your behalf. I know its difficult to weigh up options, based on the minimal amount of information provided...

Hello and welcome to Outcome Focused Solutions

I'm Sara Paton - Transformation Consultant / Partner

I thought I would just give you a quick rundown on who I am, and what I am all about as I start to share some of my thoughts and insights on a regular basis right here on my blog. Here is a quick overview for you in the video attached.

 

Being able to create a space to share my knowledge and thoughts to help others appreciate and recognise their impact has been a yearning desire of mine for years. 

However, allowing myself to be vulnerable by sharing my own voice and impact has always required significant courage and left me focusing only on those around me. It's through my own awareness and personal growth I have enabled myself to be vulnerable enough to move this forward and to follow my calling to create the larger impact I know I am here to make.

Here I will share some of the lessons I have learned, that have had an impact on my life, and...
