226. Stay Connected To WHY You Are Doing Things By Deirdre McEachern
     "The more I want to get something done, the less I call it work." Richard BachThis quote was shared with me by a fellow coach & colleague. I think it is such a great quote that I share it with you. Isn't it so true that the more we want to get something done, the less it feels like "work"? This quote led me to start pondering about the things I wanted to do in my work versus the things I felt I had to do. I wondered what caused me to *want* to do some things as opposed to others on my never en…



227. How Stella (Laurie) Got Her Groove Back! By Laurie Hayes

     Jim, a 42-year old engineer was teaching his eight-year-old son how to fly a radio-controlled airplane. As the airplane was taking off, Jim instructed his son to push the control stick on the radio to the right. He did and the airplane turned to the right.This was repeated several more times until the airplane turned full circle toward the son, ready to land. “Push the stick to the right,” said Jim. This time, however, the plane turned left. “Push the stick left,” Jim said. Now the plane turne…



229. Coaching Skills for Peers: Extending Influence By Chris Stowell
     Many people think of coaching solely as a management technique. Although coaching skills provide managers with the means to get business results while creating solid relationships, the value of coaching in other arenas is often overlooked. Utilizing coaching skills is also beneficial when cooperating and collaborating with others, developing influence within the organization, and getting effective business results.Peer coaching is not a new idea, but is not widely practiced. In fact, there …

However you also need specific guidelines for dealing with situations when nothing seems to be working despite your best efforts.One of the hardest things to deal with is the fact that some people will dislike you no matter how wonderful you are.

231. Reduce Anxiety About Decison Making By Kathy Gates
     What’s the alternative to making decisions?Allowing someone else, or circumstances, to make them for you.And that is giving up control of your life. That’s giving up all power to your life to other people or circumstance. And that will make you miserableIt reminds me of walking through a wonderful food buffet where you could have anything you want -- 0 calories! -- and allowing someone else to decide what you took on your plate. Unacceptable!So when faced with decision anxiety, is the alter…



232. Mind the Gap By Linda LaPointe
     The underground train in London can get you anywhere when you know how to maneuver all the options. Like our subways, London under ground is a busy place. When your train arrives and comes to a stop, you move forward with the crowd, waiting for your turn to get on the train. A man’s voice drones from overhead, warning you over and over: “Mind the gap. . . mind the gap.”There is a crack of about 4 – 8 inches between the platform and the train, where any number of things could fall through. You…



233. Why Daily Planning is So Important for Adults with ADD By Jennifer Koretsky
     For adults with Attention Deficit Disorder (ADD), details are a drag. We tend to see the big picture and want to jump straight to the finish line, wishing we could skip all the steps in between. Unfortunately, this perspective often causes us to become overwhelmed when it's time to start a project. We know where we want to end up, but we don't know where to start.The same is true for day-to-day life. Adults with ADD often start the day knowing what should ideally get accomplished, but not …



234. Can I Be My Own ADD Coach? By Tara McGillicuddy
     Quite often I am in contact with people who discuss acting as an ADD Coach for their child or spouse. While supporting and helping loved ones with ADD is a great idea, acting as an ADD Coach really isn't a great idea. There is just way too much emotion involved and an ADD Coach needs to be far enough removed from the situation to be an effective ADD Coach.I have recently seen people talking about being their own ADD Coaches. That is just a really bad idea. As both an ADD Coach and a first born…



235. Floating In Mindfulness: Dealing With Disappointment By Maya Talisman Frost
     Feeling disappointed? It's time to float.The time-honored approach to disappointment generally involves a fair amount of wallowing followed by a concerted effort to move on. Okay, this can work. But a more mindful approach includes an interim phase between these two. It's a unique opportunity to "float".When things don't go our way--whether we're talking about election results, a job interview, a proposal at work, or a relationship--we naturally feel disappointed. We had hoped for the best, ev…



236. Can Self-Coaching Really Help Your Bottom Line? By Euphrosene Labon
     The other day I found myself watching one of those ubiquitous makeover programmes.The presenter’s brief was to transform an entire street. In her pitch to the residents, she evangelised about the effect the conversion would have: not only would it make the environment look better, it would be less prone to vandalism, and, in addition, it would also lift house prices.Considering how disparate the neighbours were, the presenter was extraordinarily successful in getting them to agree in principl…

238. Plan Your Life and Really Live Your Dreams By Bryony Benson
     Many of us live from day to day without looking ahead to what we truly want - if we do, it's just a dream that may or may not come true. Life Coaching can help you turn that dream to reality, to set goals and targets in small manageable steps. It's easy to drift on in life, wishing you had taken a different path, hoping it will get better, personally and financially. After all, it can be a comfort to stay with what you know. A life coach can help you to remove fears that stop you, change l…

241. Handling Disappointment By Janet K. Ilacqua
     Disappointment is an inevitable part of home-based business. Clients won’t pay, bids fall through, or business associates don't come through on their promises or act unethically. Some people will deliberately foster cynicism in their consciousness as a way of avoiding the pain of disappointment. This is mistaken as a means of making life better. Disappointment is a temporary condition. Cynicism is a long term poisoning sickness. Neither is necessary; but until the addiction to cynicism is brok…

243. Words Are Potent And Magical By Thea Westra
     I've spoken about this before yet I feel it's important to reiterate the point of how we make use of everyday language. Words are potent and magical.Since a picture is worth much more than any number of words, let me show you these simple and most convincing pictures, demonstrating how our thoughts, words, and feelings affect so-called physical objects, right down to the molecular level.

Recognising its symptoms is one thing – knowing quite what to do about it is another...Having a strong vision and purpose is the primary way to fight the seductive attractions of self-sabotage – after all, if you really know why you are …



245. A Worthwhile Trip To Hell -- The Value Of Contrast By Brad Swift
     This week I’d like to share an 'off purpose' moment, actually a series of them that congealed into a daylong trip into Hell. It happened on Tuesday and started innocently enough with a disagreement with Ann during breakfast over how Amber's home school math was going.Basically, I offered some 'unsolicited coaching' to Ann on how she was viewing the situation without first being sure she had the experience of being heard. This led to one of my familiar Inherited Purpose-based patterns of not …



246. It's Only Adult ADD-What A Relief! By Suzan Fiskin
     For most of her fifty years, Barbara was at war with herself. Keeping organized, being on time, and finishing what she started were always a struggle. (Sound familiar?)She always secretly felt that she was broken and that there was no way out.We met after a presentation I did for NAWBO, a women’s business group.“My desk is a train wreck, I can’t get myself to do the things I know I have to do and I know I’m smart but my brains take a hike when I need them most. Can you help me?” she asked, …



247. Curbing the Public Nuisance (Part 1) By David Leonhardt
     He's been around since the dawn of humanity. His profession is even older than the world's oldest profession. He's been loathed and reviled by politicians, bureaucrats and hot dog vendors.I am speaking, of course, of the public nuisance.He was that slithery dude in the Garden of Eden, taunting folks to shoplift. "Go on. Take a bite of the apple. The grocer will never know it's misssssing."Even in caveman days, the public nuisance was the one who would always have a practical joke to play o…



248. 5 Steps to Derail Difficult People - Your Surefire Way to a Peaceful Resolution By Frank Lunn
     That one guy at work that always has to be right; your buddy’s wife who can’t eat anywhere they serve burgers, or the monster-in-law, I mean mother-in-law, with too many opinions for your own good, difficult people, we all know them. So the question is, is there a right and a wrong way to deal with them? The answer is yes, if you want to avoid unnecessary confrontations.First, keep in mind that it is very unlikely you will ever change the other person, so dealing with their difficult persona…

What would be better than X? Often a coaching conversation will focus on a …



250. Don't Settle By Rachelle Disbennett-Lee
     Settling is about not embracing what is best for you, and accepting what you really don't want. When you settle, you accept less than you deserve. Settling becomes a habit and a way of life, but it doesn't have to be. According to Maureen Dowd, "The minute you settle for less than you deserve, you get even less than you settled for!”People settle every day in every way. They settle for unsatisfying jobs, boring lives, and stale relationships. People settle in part because they don't reali…
