    This is truer than people might realize. Dig deep, there is a significant powerful truth buried in this statement that can redefine life and create more positive and powerful experiences. As we navigate life, become educated in society, and learn from experiences we inevitably think we know.We know what people are like, we know what this means and that means, we know what to expect, and we know what will be good and what will be bad. All of these perceptions are defining a reality before it ev…


  2. Home For The Holidays By Wayne Mitchell
    In my husband's family, family members send Christmas cards to other family members (parents to children, brothers and sisters to one another, etc.) even though the family always spends time together at Christmas for a meal and gift exchange.My husband and I do not know of any other family that does this. We both always understood Christmas cards were for family members one would not be seeing because they live too far away, or that Christmas cards were sent from one family to another.We do n…


  3. Choosing a Mentor to Help You Succeed By Gary Simpson
    Are you lost? Are you searching for something in life yet never seem to find it?If you want to be successful at something, perhaps the easiest way is to look for somebody who is already successful in that field. Once you have done that you can then model yourself around that person. For instance, if you want to learn guitar find a good guitarist who can either teach you personally or, if that is not possible, you can copy the way they play.Make sure that the person you choose is successful.

  4. Sometimes, It Just Takes ONE Conversation to Change Your Life! By Mary Gardner
    I was thinking this morning about the importance of the profession that I am in. Besides doing various trainings, workshops and consulting, I also coach people. Coaching is a profession that continues to develop but it originally came out of the self help industry. Many of the first coaches were publicists, consultants, sales professionals, and financial advisors. Much of what these people loved about what they did was helping people figure out how to achieve their best.My own career was in fu…


  5. Do Miracle Cures for Anxiety, Panic Attacks, and Phobias Really Exist? By Thomas Chant
    Everyone who has anxiety just wants to get rid of it. Many therapists, some of them unscrupulous, lure desperate sufferers by promising that anxiety can “evaporate”, “float away” or “disappear”. It seldom does, especially using their flawed and expensive gimmicks. The chances are you already know this. Most of the therapists that use such language are either charging a high hourly rate for weekly sessions which in the long term achieve little, or are selling an equally expensive “programme” or…

  7. 10 Things I Wish I Would Have Known Before I Went Into the Real World By Chris Widener
    I must confess, I laughed when I saw that Maria Shriver has come out with a book called, "Ten Things I Wish I Had Known Before Going Into The Real World." The real world?

  11. THE Step to Working Smarter (Japanese Style) By Dr. Robert A. Eubanks
    Remember that Coke contest from the 80s? If you collected bottle tops that had the letters to spell T-H-E R-E-A-L T-H-I-N-G, then youd win a zillion dollars.Im not sure where the drink industry turned the corner but contests and advertisements are no longer all you will find on the underneath side of bottle caps.The latest beverage I popped open was some high brow herbal elixir that promised energy, health and a stress free life. Interesting claims for a container of strained leaves.To further…

  13. Personal Development Profiles By Andy Britnell
    Personal development profiles, also known as personality profiles, are a tool I frequently use before starting a course of coaching with a client.

  18. Grow Through It By Lee Down
    It's past bedtime for most working men. It's not unbearably late and I have no appointments tomorrow morning so I sit here and contemplate. Contemplate what? Well, what do I always contemplate?

I speak of being in the moment, staying present and not worrying. You are more effective in that place. Yet, t…

  20. A World of Possibility By Alvah Parker

  21. The Magic of Hearing By Angie Dixon
    I’m working on a coach training certification, and one of the “proficiencies” I’m expected to have mastered is “engages in provocative conversations.” Now, that really got me thinking. What’s a provocative conversation?Well, the word “provocative” means that the conversation provokes something—hopefully a reaction from the client which helps take them to another level. The ideal response to the provocation is for the client to realize something they didn’t know or find a solution they didn’t h…


  22. Negotiating Difficult Life Transitions By Garrett Coan
    Life is a process of beginnings and endings. In both life and nature, there are times when things move slowly and don’t seem to change very much. Then, suddenly, things change quickly.

  24. You Know Your Life Is On Purpose When You Can Witness Your Inherited Purpose By Brad Swift
    "If you are able to stay alert and present at that time (that the pain-body awakens) and watch whatever you feel within, rather than be taken over by it, it affords an opportunity for the most powerful spiritual practice, and a rapid transmutation of all past pain becomes possible."

  25. It's Not What You Think Coach, It's What You Do By Chris Stowell
    If you are like the leader or employees in the research we have conducted, you would have little difficulty describing the elements in an effective coaching session. Even ineffective leaders could correctly define what should occur. The difference was that the ineffective leader was inhibited or could not apply or enact the desired behaviors when asked to do so in a real-time coaching session. The effective leaders, on the other hand, were able to apply the desired behaviors.What causes the…
