My Epic Failure
It can be a hard pill to swallow. The resentment for the decisions you made that led to the demise, the public shame, how to face the world again? Can you relate? Michael Jordan experienced a significant failure and he locked himself in his room to cry (oh thats me last week). Oprah Winfrey was […]
Got A Question For You
How often do you think about yourself? Research shows that most of our time is spent thinking about someone or something else. Psychologists believe people actually avoid thinking about themselves. We dislike facing our own adequacies. For the same reason, many of us avoid talking about ourselves, viewing ourselves in the mirror, or being photographed. […]
Try A New Thing Here
Did you know that every problem already has a solution whether you know it or not? I’m not kidding. Just ask for the answer to be revealed to you. Now, this isn’t some hippy woo-woo thinking. I’ve used it with clients and myself for years and what is revealed is deeply profound. While I invested […]
Are You Willing To . . ?
I’ve noticed most common to people in the personal development world is they value learning. They soak up learning, and sometimes keep jamming in more learning (sometimes to a point of being overwhelmed). Learning is great. It can make you feel like you are growing and going somewhere. There are times when what we are […]
Validation, Fame, Riches…
Is it ever ok to compare ourselves? (Even to teens?) When you’re focused on a goal, pouring effort and energy into getting somewhere, it’s easy to feel… inadequate. To begin comparing yourself when things don’t come quick enough. Like to a 16 year old on Tik Tok who has way less experience than you, yet […]
Which Kind Of Learner Are You? (I’m #2)
You’ve got 2 types of learners: Passive and Active Passive learners prefer to absorb information, attend seminars, read books and learn tools they may – or may not – use. Pure knowledge is the goal. (Think academics, researchers, and some content creators.) Active learners prefer to apply what they learn. They gain insights and distinctions […]
Skeletons In The Closet
You have any skeletons in the closet? I do. (And not the dancing buns-out in the bedroom on a Sunday kind.) When I started my business, I leaned HARD on that affirmation, “I do whatever it takes and pay whatever price to bring my services of love to the world.” Emphasis on “do whatever it […]
Intelligent guesses only (a business question)
You’re a smart cookie – take a guess: What do you think is the least sexy idea in business growth? Tax strategy? Insurance and indemnity? If you ask me… I’d say it’s the one that gurus find the hardest to sell because it doesn’t hit you with an instant dopamine fix: Doing the work. Not […]
You Forgot, Didn’t You
Uh-oh. Hear that? It’s the sound of new year’s goals shuffling to a dusty corner in the back of humanity’s mind, waiting until December to be plucked out and shaken off again. (Most likely accompanied by a twinge of regret at what they left undone.) Sooooo, let’s not do that. Let’s set ourselves apart from […]
Is It Ever Ok To Compare Ourselves? (Even to teens?)
When you’re focused on a goal, pouring effort and energy into getting somewhere, it’s easy to feel… inadequate. To begin comparing yourself when things don’t come quick enough. Like to a 16 year old on Tik Tok who has way less experience than you, yet talks to 1.7 million people per day, and can ‘print […]
