My Whole Life is a Celebration Now

“What are you going to do to celebrate your success?” I asked my client.

He said, “Right after this I’m going to sit on my balcony and read Randy’s book. It’s such a good book, I’m so proud of him!”

He was referring to the new book by our friend Randy King, “The Timeline of Self-Defense.”

“Yes, I’m so proud of him too,” I agreed, “but you were going to do that anyway. What else can you do to celebrate? Think big, something crazy!”

He thought for a moment and said, “My whole life is a celebration now! I’m doing everything I want to do.”

Eudaimonia achieved!

A lot of coaching is short-term, helping the client to crush a goal, and we certainly started out that way.

He was in danger of losing his job. His AudHD tendencies were sabotaging him again.

He wanted to break that cycle, yet keep his AudHD quirks which he enjoys, and use them as powers for good.

He succeeded! He kept his job. And then he started raising his goals, and checking them off:

☑️ Earned a promotion

☑️ Got an even better job

☑️ Sold his house and bought a swanky condo that suits his lifestyle better

☑️ Became a leader in his community groups

Unfortunately, he got laid off, but by then he was financially secure enough to be selective about his next job.

His accomplishments have always been about increasing his generosity, having more resources to share with others.

This is why he celebrated by reading Randy’s book and being proud of him. He also bought additional copies to give away.

Eudaimonia means “flourishing through virtuous action”, living in alignment with your highest self and purpose. It’s also relational with the added meaning of flourishing while contributing to the greater good.

This is what he has achieved. And this is what it means to Live an Enhanced Life.
