UNLEASH ING YOUR POTENTIAL
Creating Your Life Script

The power is within you to rise from the ashes. How far you rise is up to you.
Unleashing your potential requires you to work on yourself on all levels - physically, emotionally, mentally, and spiritually. It's a journey taken over time that commands a commitment to invest in yourself. At times the journey can be challenging but it is never impossible - only if we make it so. For me, the journey began long ago when I first worked for an organization that sold self-improvement courses. I continue the journey today by working with a mentor that I've worked with for many years. Like me, my mentor continues to unleash their potential and that allows them to take me further on my journey. How far can one go, you ask? I believe far further than most of us realize. My life has changed and continues to change profoundly on this journey and I know yours can too.
Always work with someone who deeply understands the journey and that is further along on the journey than you are so that they can guide you further. I can guarantee that if you are moving forward you will run into challenges along the way. If you run away at that point, you will have paused progression on your journey. So hang in there, integrate the challenges along the way by coming to terms with them, and move forward. Sometimes you will take large steps. Other times it will be smaller steps. The tiny steps can be profound so acknowledge them and find the silver lining in them. They are as important as the large steps.
Creating Your Life Script is one of the many exercises I use with my clients to help them to unleash their potential. The first time I did a version of this exercise myself was in a career planning workshop. At the time I had no plans of moving and certainly, not moving overseas. I didn’t name the place I wanted to live in; I described my experience of living there. I didn’t name the job title I wanted to hold; I described the work I wanted to do and my experience of executing the role. Six months later, to my surprise, my partner and I sold our property and immigrated from Canada to New Zealand. I joined KPMG Chartered Accountants as the National Director of Training. I know from that experience that Creating Your Life Script is a very powerful exercise to do.
The version presented in this document was adapted by me from 'The Integrity of Loving' by Mahni Dugan and 'Absolute Happiness' by Michael Domeyko Rowland. I also incorporated information from Neuro Linguistic Programming and other courses I trained in, along with my experience of using the exercise with clients.
Enjoy your experience of writing your script. I look forward to hearing about your successes as you achieve your desired outcomes. Please feel free to contact me if you have more questions or need help with any challenges that are blocking your way forward.

Step
Read all the steps and tips before beginning. Then choose a specific date in the future and write your script in the past tense, as if you were looking back from that date. Be sensible as to how much of the result can be achieved by that date.
lnclude an experience(s) that would be evidence for you that what you seek has actually transpired. Write with excitement, having achieved this result(s). Fuel your script with emotion!
Include experience of yourself the way you would like to be, fully giving yourself the quality of life you desire. Don’t limit that quality by writing in moderate terms. Go for the ultimate result!
Include experiences of yourself with ever-increasing awareness and conscious self-mastery. For example, living my truth and being honest with myself and others has become easier and easier and I have been realising not only the value of what I do but how I actually do create all of it.
Deal with what hasn’t been working in your life and describe it as you would have wanted it to be as opposed to how it is now. Create it so that it is resolved, even if you don’t know how to resolve it.
Be mindful that you cannot choose the behavior desired of other people. If you want to script what happens with people already involved in your life, do it with full willingness to learn from the feedback. On the other hand, if you choose what you want, without putting a name to the person, then that opens the door for someone out there to align with with that. It may not be someone who is currently in your life.
Example of how you might start your script:
Today is [future date] ______________________________ and I can hardly believe it. Everything has come to
fruition perfectly (and then begin describing what happened as if it had already happened).
The work I'm now doing is so interesting compared to the past. I work with people that are really engaged and excited by the way I work with them. As a result, they are achieving their goals quicker and raving about the work I am doing with them. My clients (family, friends) are saying .... (go into detail, ask, what would I like them to be saying about me and write that down). I'm feeling so much more confident and I'm thrilled with the results I am achieving. My income has skyrocketed as a result. Build this up even further with more details.
If you have a question about completing this exercise, or are struggling with getting the desired results and need help to break through the barriers I encourage you to book a FREE Clarity Call.

After qualifying and working as a Chartered Accountant, the unexpected happened. I found myself working for Dale Carnegie, an organization that changed my life path. I was on their Sales team and I also coached participants in their Leadership, Sales, and Public Speaking courses. These courses were designed to improve one’s business expertise, emotional intelligence, leadership, and ability to speak publicly. I remember the feeling of joy and connectedness I felt in this role. I was coaching and supporting people who wanted to improve, grow and evolve in their work. They wanted to be more successful in their chosen careers. They wanted to be better leaders in their industries, their communities, and their businesses. I felt inspired by the results they achieved and I clearly saw the transformational impact of developing yourself and having a coach.
Later, I immigrated from Canada to New Zealand and worked as Director of Training for KPMG, an international accounting firm. Subsequently, I worked in the People and Culture field as an employee, and later, as a self-employed Consultant and Lecturer in Management. Having worked in many senior roles in business and as a long-time business owner myself, I've coached and trained 1000s of leaders who were board members, managers, team leaders, and professionals. I've also supported, coached and trained many new business owners, helping them to get their businesses up and running smoothly.
Primarily I’ve been involved in business advisory (accounting, auditing systems, and business strategy), sales and marketing, leadership development, coaching, training, public speaking, and facilitating transformational experiences. I've designed, facilitated, and sold an extensive range of courses across many different industries.
My insatiable curiosity and my thirst to learn, improve, grow and evolve have led me to where I am today. It’s clearly defined me in many ways and has given me the opportunity to monetize my expertise and impact many lives, including my own. It’s my secret sauce to success and it can be your secret sauce too. I welcome you on this journey with me.

Leslie Hamilton, Executive Coach, Director, FutureScape
I was just embarking on the coaching journey and was working on getting a better understanding of my "who" and nailing down the content in my training and my offer.
Lynda provided detailed insights into multiple areas of my coaching program that could be improved. She was kind, clear and forthright with what she did and did not like in the program. I really appreciated her suggestions knowing that the next time I run my program it will be 100 times better! She also freely shared her other ideas on ways I could offer my program to a slightly different audience with minor tweaks. The potential audience for my coaching program idea has expanded significantly without requiring major changes to my program.
Lynda is a master at business breakthrough and will be a huge asset in implementing a new business idea with success.Rebekah Richards, Challenge Consultant, End Tech Paralysis

I will treasure the insight re tapping into the emotional state at which we can often find ourselves in, then realising that we DO have the impetus and drive to achieve the best in our own capabilities when we encounter various challenges in either everyday activities or doubts we may have.
