“The way to gain a good reputation is to endeavor to be what you desire to appear.”--Socrates What is the change you wish to see for yourself and others?  What are the expected results you believe will be achieved? What is stopping you from taking action to generate the new possibility you seek? If not you, then who will be the one to make the change you want to see happen? It is your

Yes, things can get very tough.  We have all gone through hardships of one kind or another.  And we have all heard success isn't how you fall or how many times you fall, but it's how you get up.  Inquiry:   When circumstances hit you negatively, what keeps you going?  Is it something you are looking forward to or something that holds little desire...is your outlook bleak or positive?   "What

It's important to get off the fence to explore new landscapes of opportunity. Use the landscapes as tools to stretch your imagination with new ideas like the following: First thing in the morning, write for 30-45 minutes non-stop without judging or editing what you write. This frees up the mind to get rid of the toxins and bring to the surface new ideas. Another great tool is taking a 30-

When looking to get off the fence and move into the career of your dreams, it's important to remind yourself to breathe properly. Some of the benefits are: Improved quality of the blood, elimination of toxins from the system, increase in the digestion and assimilation of food, improvement in the health of the nervous system, rejuvenation of the glands and skin, reduction of the work load for

Here's another tip on how to get off the fence in into the green pasture of your dream career! Don’t worry about the “how” when looking deeper at possibilities. Asking “how” is a dream killer. I would say that the “how” is a saboteur – a relentless saboteur! Watch your thoughts when you come up with ideas to try something different. I bet you’ll see the “how” saboteur rise up. If you

Today I'll start a series of Tips to help you get off the fence and play a bigger and better game. Tip #1: Ask questions that you haven’t really taken time out to ask. Such as: What career path would I choose besides the one I have been doing? Why would I choose that particular path? What is important to me? Why is it important to me? What does it feel like to work at something I enjoy?

By delving deeper into what is calling you next as a leader, personally and professionally, you invite opportunity. Time out to get off the fence allows exploration in a bigger landscape of possibility rather than the landscape of the past. Hunkering down on the fence is turning away from the potential that is waiting for you to take the reins. To take action from past perspectives is similar

"A dream is your creative vision for your life in the future. You must break out of your current comfort zone and become comfortable with the unfamiliar and the unknown." — Denis Waitley When losing a job, staying at a stressful job, going through transition, or even struggling at building a business, your life can be wrought with doubt, anxiety and fear. “What to do next?” you ask yourself.

In difficult times the struggle to make it from the troubled side of the bridge to crossing over to the other side to new opportunities may be totally out of one's radar.  Troubled water does muddy up visibility to clearer water, but that doesn't mean one need remain in the muck.   When thinking about mud it is likely to see it as murky and dirty.  Yet there are benefits to mud.  For example,

We function in the world based on beliefs, opinions, habits, and actions shaped by the environment we grew up in. From birth to adulthood bodies grow and age. Rituals, habits, and relationships and career activities operate from the past of what we learned. The scenery may change. Jobs may change. Relationships may change. But for some reason nothing has changed. When one is busy taking care

As we complete our recent discussion on Leading from Adversity (and how it can be a beautiful thing), I would like you to remember this: You are the leader of your life, not circumstances. After all “anything is possible” and you are the creator of possibilities. “Until you make the unconscious conscious, it will direct your life and you will call it fate.” - Carl Jung "A desire

Right now there are countless dramatic changes happening in the world causing people to reinvent their lives. Out of adversity often comes greatness, especially if one seizes the opportunity rather than succumb to being a victim. Desired change may not happen overnight, but it has to start somewhere. In your life, you are the someone, the only one, to lead the way to making a positive

One of the best ways to discover if you are headed in the right direction is to tune into your feelings. As you visualize proceeding in a desired direction, do you feel excited and enthused? You may feel fearful, but it is normal to get queasy when taking on something new that is out of your paradigm. However, there is nothing written that says you can’t at least take small steps to

When answering bold questions about creating YOUR Dreams, look at the “why” and the importance your Dream means to you. The “why” helps make a decision and brings clarity. It often awakens new ideas and dreams. When you lead from your heart it has a synergistic effect not only in your circle of influence, but in the world. Everything is energy. Your thoughts and actions are energy.

Ok, you had dreams as a child which were either supported and nourished, or not. Then you grew up surrounded with adults from whom you developed a variety of beliefs and behaviors on how to live life. Take a moment and think about this today: Are you living from those learned behaviors and beliefs or are you creating a future with a vision of your own to live into? Over the next week or so

I have 6 tips to help you answer the Bold Questions in your life. Here is the first one: Maybe you forgot your dreams from when you were a youngster. It is easy to get caught up in a culture of agreements promoting careers with titles that make the most money. Think about when you were a youngster pretending to be a police officer, or a nurse, or maybe a movie star. What did it feel like

Let's go back to the last post where I asked you: If you could remove all factors of limitation and you were guaranteed to succeed, what is the one thing you would pick to do that would significantly change your life? Thinking about that, what difference would this one thing make to you? What difference would it make to the world? What are your excuses for not taking proactive steps in

Today I offer some bold questions to you - take the time to work through them.  Look deep inside to discover your Leadership Destiny. 1. If you could remove all factors of limitation and you were guaranteed to succeed, what is the one thing you would pick to do that would significantly change your life? 2. Why would you want to do this one thing? 3. Why is it so important to you? 4. What

Transitions are golden opportunities to get in touch with your call to take lead from where you are to where you are destined to be. It is a time to look deeper within rather than looking for solutions elsewhere. By asking bolder questions you will find bolder answers. You know the ones I mean, the kind that you are afraid to ask of yourself because they force you to look beyond where you

Unproductive thoughts about circumstances have a slippery way of pulling you under their spell. They convince you to keep doing what you are doing without regard of changes happening all around you.

Today I offer you several tips on how to climb your Dream Mountain...1. Find yourself a trainer, coach, teacher, mentor, group, books, CDs and/or spiritual guide - whatever tools you need to climb your new mountain. You can’t do it alone.

One very important thing to remember as you drive toward those mountains on the way to your dreams:Your dream journey is a journey with spikes in the road that may blow out your tires at time. Just remember that your engine is still functioning. Your heart is that engine of your dreams. Never forget that you are always in control of your heart’s desire even though at times, it may not feel that

“True life is lived when tiny changes occur.”—Leo TolstoyWe are so busy being busy that, like cogs in a machine, we live life automatically and routinely dismissing our inner creative voice.We tune into the experts looking for the magic formula to get our life on track not noticing we are off track and moving away from our authenticity.We get lazy and become a passenger on someone else’s bus

“First say to yourself what you would be: and then do what you have to do.” --EpictetusWhy bother developing your leadership?Being a leader may be something you are not interested in being or doing. But if that is so, then you are shortchanging yourself and the world of the gifts you have to offer.Leadership is to be of service to self and others. We are all called to lead, but few answer the

Another element important to growth is the environment. Think of the variety of plants that grow in climates which are favorable to encourage and welcome growth. The tropical rain forests nurture in the ample supply of rainfall supplied near the Equator, while the Mojave Desert in the northwestern part of the United States receives less than 6 inches of rain a year. But the habitat in each of

Last time we talked about how affirmations can begin to change your thought process which in turn creates positive change throughout your life. This can disrupt your inner critics who then run wild in your mind with untrue statements like: * I am not good enough* I am too old/too young/too fat/too thin* I am not smart enough* I can’t possibly do _________ - besides I don’t have the time or money*

Ralph Waldo Emerson, who was a champion of individualism, said: “Nerve us with incessant affirmatives. Don’t bark against the bad, but chant the beauties of the good.”While practicing affirmations, opportunities will start appearing, for your thoughts are powerful attractors. But beware of what lies beneath your conscious mind. It is the subconscious barking “no, no, no – stop!”To protect the

Affirmations are dream builders. They are seeds planted in your mind germinating to form new possibilities. It would be doubtful if anyone planting seeds would exclude faith and belief in their growth. If you didn’t believe in what you were planting, then why bother? So it is with affirmations. They build belief in the growth of your new ideas for something better. “As you sow, so shall you reap.

You may have a thought about having what you desire, but if your beliefs, feelings, and actions are in discord, the desire remains a thought.For example: Let’s say you want to be a millionaire within the next three years – that’s the first part = thought. You make plans to do what is necessary to make this a reality, yet no matter how hard you try, three years later you haven’t made much

Andrew Carnegie was fascinated with how people became successful and commissioned Napoleon Hill, author of Think & Grow Rich, to interview 500 successful individuals. From his research he discovered the principles of the Law of Attraction to reach success. The Law of Attraction is universal and does not discriminate.Becoming familiar with The Law of Attraction (LOA) is powerful in manifesting

“I am no longer cursed by poverty because I took possession of my own mind, and that mind has yielded me every material thing I want, and much more than I need. But this power of mind is a universal one, available to the humblest person as it is to the greatest.”—Andrew Carnegie (1835-1919)Andrew Carnegie was expected to follow in his father’s footsteps as a weaver in Scotland, but the

I remember a story describing what happens to a frog when it is put in different temperatures of water. If the frog is put into boiling water it will quickly jump out to escape being prey to the boiling water. It quickly notices that there is danger. However, if you put the frog in water of normal temperature it will remain even as the heat is gradually raised. The frog doesn’t notice that it is

We've been discussing your Inner Critics this week. It's a really important issue because your Inner Critics are not your master.Take this important advice from the discussion and think about this over the weekend:Within you is a calling to lead from within and make the difference you desire. Listen to it and know that “Anything is Possible.” “We are meant to be different. When we accept this,

One great way you can shed false negative beliefs and silence those inner critics is by building your brain with positive neuronets using affirmations, such as: I attract positive-minded people to me; I draw all things positive to my self I make powerful and enjoyable business relationships I have the power to change myself I am flexible and open to change in every aspect of my life I act with

Leaders are not exempt from inner critics. They learn to listen objectively to what their gremlins are saying before dismissing them. Because it could be intuition speaking. Intuition is never wrong. It is the interpretation by the inner critic that is false.There is a leader within each one of us. Leaders are visionaries. Whether you realize it or not you are projecting what you vision and

It is true when you are embarking into unfamiliar territory it will feel foreign and be scary. Therefore, when you begin to take action you will fail! Embrace it!

Inner critics, the saboteurs of dreams, are really afraid of change. The unknown is dangerous to them.
