Leadership and empowerment coach, Nelly Sébastien was first high -level sport and then sports coach before becoming assistant to the chief of the sports service. After a burnout, she chose to refocus to find her momentum. In her accompaniments as in her chronicles, she invites everyone to take this step aside so often pushed. This month, it offers a magazine-style test of the 1980s to take stock with humor on your internal alignment level.
What if it was the right time to rest the right questions? A few days ago, I spent a little time out of time. You know, these simple moments where we laugh, we talk loudly, we confide in half a word. As I meet during the “promotions”, I had this diffuse feeling that time spins … and that something aspires to us with something else.
The quarantine crisis?
As if to find excuses, we said 1000 times: “It’s age”, for example. But between the lines, I heard: “I don’t really know what makes me vibrate. “,” I checked the right boxes, and yet … “,” I need to find meaning. It was this feeling and this evening that inspired this article. Because I think there are many of us, spent a certain course, to feel this little inner voice pointed out. The quarantine crisis? We call it like that, but in reality, it is above all a desire to make meaning without breaking everything, you do not think? It would therefore not be an inevitable drama, but rather a desire to reinvent yourself and regain your flame.
What boxes do you check?
Remember the tests in magazines in the 1980s and 1990s. In our rooms or at the swimming pool, we put on the boxes, we added the points, and presto, we knew if we were rather “romantic”, “daring”, or “ready to place everything to live in Bali”. Today, you may have 38, 42 or 51 years old and you have checked much more serious boxes since. A job, children (or not), a house, responsibilities … And perhaps this question in front of your mirror: “Is it still me in there?” »»
Often, it starts with a very little moment of lucidity during an evening with friends, a walk with the dog, or … an article like this. So, just for fun (and perhaps a little more), I suggest you plunge back into the carelessness of these tests for 6 questions.
