The Wake-Up Revolution – Our Mission
“be the change you wish to see in
the world” - Gandhi
Our mission at Jaffe Life Design
is to serve as a Human WakeUp Call™ for others,
alerting them to the potential their lives possess. That
means empowering others directly or indirectly to make
conscious choices that enable them to break free of
their complacency, limiting beliefs and inactivity so
they can overcome their challenges and live the life
they’ve designed, on their terms!
The Wake-Up Vision
Our vision
is to have 1 million people join the WakeUp Revolution
and wake up to the possibility of their lives in the
next three years. We want one million of you to rewrite
your future so you look back and say “Wow!
What a ride!” at the end of your journey, instead of
looking back with lament, regret and sorrow saying “If
only...” or “I wish I had...”
Our vision
is to remind a generation of overworked, overstructured,
overloaded, overinformed, overstimulated and overwhelmed
people (you included!) that there is a tremendous cost
to living this way.
Our vision
is that decency, honesty, authenticity, humility,
generosity and community become part of the vernacular
again and are not equated to weakness, failure or a lack
of ambition.
Our vision
is to spread this awareness today, NOW, so we can all
stop living like we have endless tomorrows, and stop
waiting for a ‘some day’ that will never come! So we can
recalibrate and remember what is really important, what
our core values are. So we can breathe again.
Life is
about possibility. When you start to gain mastery
over your self, you gain control and purpose over your
life. When you declare an intention and put positive
energy out to the world, the world responds back in kind
and supports you. It’s time for you to join the
revolution!
The WakeUp Philosophy
Many of our
clients have diverse interests, skills and abilities. An
ideal life, business and career consists of all
of the elements essential to your happiness and
fulfillment. We'll use dialog, questioning, intuition
and brainstorming together with a very powerful
integrated coaching model that considers everything you
love to do and all aspects of yourself to help you
make the most satisfying choices for yourself.
As
trained professional coaches, we listen, reflect,
inquire, probe, give perspectives, share our experiences
and provide structure, options and insights. If we hear
something in your voice or notice something seems ‘off',
we’re likely to ask you about it and even probe a little
bit. Often, it is these small moments and reflections
that bring about the BIGGEST shifts! We call it
Gentle Fire™ - a delicate combination of nurture and
motivation.
Life is a
gift to be mastered. The key to self-empowerment is
in how you are ‘being' in any situation rather
than what you are ‘doing.' Here are a few
more of our core beliefs:
-
We all still have a lot to discover
about ourselves, including our
interests, preferences, talents and
passions.
-
When you are in a safe, trusting space,
you have the freedom to explore, play
and uncover things that can shift your
perspective and broaden your horizons.
-
Small, incremental changes lead to
profound results when done consistently.
-
These changes, when driven by clear
goals, a well-defined plan, intention
and commitment, lead to extraordinary
results in a relatively short period of
time.
-
When you declare an intention and put
positive energy out to the world, the
world responds back in kind and supports
you.
-
Much of our fears and concerns are not
fact-based, but emotionally-driven. If
we're going to make it all up anyway,
why not make up something that empowers
us?
-
Being great is often sacrificed for
being adequate. It is easier to be
driven to live your life at a '10' when
you are living at a ‘3'. The hard part
is choosing to live at a '10' when life
is fine and you are living at a ‘7'.
-
We need to balance saving and planning
for tomorrow with living for today; too
much of either is imbalanced.
-
It is so important to understand
yourself, embrace yourself and not be
afraid to express yourself.
What makes your life worth living?
Founder Mike Jaffe: “What makes my life worth living?
Big hugs from my kids; playing tickle monster in the
living room; a warm embrace from my wife; kissing them
all goodnight and singing the kids to sleep to Neil
Young's "Sugar Mountain”; the pride and wonder on my
clients' faces when their results unfold; an authentic
and intimate conversation with anyone; a group laugh
that causes stomach cramps and tears; live acoustic
music; street fairs; a lit fire on a snowy evening; a
cold drink and a cool breeze in a hammock on a hot
beach; a good ski run; a mountain or ocean view; hitting
the sweet spot of anything; feeling fit, flexible and
rested; appreciating expressions of courage and effort
despite the results; having friends and family that I
love, and knowing that I am loved in return. I couldn’t
live any other way.”
