The Life Coach column started nearly three years ago with a sin- cere desire to awaken people to their potential. The goal for the column was to inspire people to be, do and have the things in life God intended for them by showing them thoughts, ideas and actions that could stimu- late change in their lives. The column is the fruit of my journey towards success. Success is not just financial, it is the inward and outward state of being that best you can be in any area of life; emo- tional, spiritual, relational, physical and yes, financial too. When I began speaking to groups over seven years ago, I real- ized that the connections I was making with other success-minded people were some of the most inspiring and growth inducing kind. Over the years I have met wonder- ful people who, like me, have over- come obstacles in life. These peo- ple made the conscious decisions to use their circumstances for purpos- es bigger than they are. They made the choice to speak out in the world and be the change they wanted to see in their communities. Three years ago, I decided to support a friend I had made in the National Speakers Association. Michelle Nichols had lost her son to a brain tumor unexpectedly. As a career focused mom, she felt she had lost irreplaceable time with her son when she was focused on her career and after his untimely death felt com- pelled to share a message of work-life balance. She founded the National Hug Your Kids day and holds events to remind us about the impor- tance of work-life balance. Our event is the One Minute Hug. We meet at the clock tower and multi generations hug one another for a full minute in honor of National Hug Your Kids Day. This year, my partner and I want- ed to reach out to the families who have lost loved ones. We called out to families and had an amazing response. My home has been filled with the families and friends of children who have left us too soon. It has been humbling and inspiring to work together as a group to cele- brate children and hugs. On July 19, families and friends of the One Minute Hug event invite you to meet with us at the clock tower for our third annu- al Hug. We will muster and hug and launch pink and blue balloons in honor of all children. No matter your age or your child's age, we encourage you to come out and hug with us. Faydra Rector Life Coach Success isn't always about money, the right car, the right career or the right clothes. Success is knowing in your heart that you make a difference in the lives of others. That you take seriously the need to grow and be a better you. Success is knowing you matter in the life of someone other than your- self. That people are better for hav- ing known you. I look forward to hugging my daughters with all of you. Faydra Rector, MA is a mental health administrator, author, public speaker, educator and life coach who lives in Red Bluff.
