📅 Thought for today:
Â
‘Celebrate endings – for they precede new beginnings.’

Â
I have had several client endings in recent weeks.
Â
This is remarkable (as in, worthy of the remark) because, in my one-on-one work with clients, I don’t actually have a lot of clients, and so endings are relatively rare.
Â
Endings will generally come when a client decides they don’t want to see me anymore.
Â
More often than not, this is because they have reached a place where the time and expense of sessions is not necessary or needed anymore.
Â
I will celebrate this because it means our work is done.
Â
Ultimately my work is all about endings – when I start with a new client, I know an ending will come soon enough.
Â
Still, several “normal” endings in two weeks will be cause for some reflection.
Â
We seek meaning in patterns and coincidences. I see none here, it is just a coincidence, not least because these were different types of clients on different continents.
Â
I am fond of saying that they will always be clients even if I never see them again, even if the memory of our work together may fade with time.
