- Hope By John Seeley
"Just when the caterpillar thought the world was over, it became a butterfly" -anonymousHopeAs I sat on a plane going to Atlanta, I felt the sadness that has been welling up inside of me thinking about the funeral of my dear niece Sara. I just spoke to her less than a week before on the phone. We actually had a longer than normal conversation, lasting almost a half hour. I detected nothing in her voice to lead me to worry about her. She seemed to be dealing with her life and the recent sur…

- What Is Executive Presence? By Roberta Prescott

If the idea had come to fruition, it would have radically changed our organization.So, you can imagine my impatience when I didn't hear back from the person to whom I'd made the proposal. She had welcomed the idea, but told me the decision would be made by a council within her organization.Given the dynamics of an important decision about the future of their organ…
- The Best Things in Life Are Rarely Things By Greg Reid
Have you ever noticed this to be true?The best things in life for me are those things are not things at all. People and experiences make the biggest mark: a wonderful relationship, time with family, or a fantastic vacation that stays in my mind for years.It seems funny to me that we spend so much time on this planet chasing “things” that we lose focus on what matters most. I mean, what’s the point of having that fantastic new home if you sleep in it all alone? Or drive the nicest of cars but a…
- Automatic Brain Works Overtime For You By Andrew Abernathy
Use all of your brain to be your most effective."Running on Automatic" is what I call the ability to visualize what you need to have happen. Automatic because the part of your brain that gives us most of our solutions is working all the time. When you are asleep or not. Most of us call it our subconscience. This part of your brain is processing what your awake aware or cognitive part of the brain is telling it is going on. Our subconscience is not aware of any rational or philosophical system.…

- Do You Mind If Someone Screams At You? By Lora J Adrianse
A headhunter was on the other end of the phone. He was looking for an assistant to a CEO/Owner for a small, but very successful business. Essentially, he wanted someone at his disposal night and day. That didn't seem like a huge deal. And then the next question came..."Do you mind if someone screams at you?" As soon as I could get past the sirens going off in my head, and visions of Dilbert comic strips, I replied, "Yes, that's not acceptable". The headhunter continued, "Well, he probably woul…

"The meaning of life is that it stops." -Franz Kafka (1883-1924)A good friend of mine graduated from Boston University Law School. At her commencement David E. Kelly gave the commencement address.

- Take a Chance, Win a Prize By Damien Senn
I think that we're all probably familiar with the fairground rant 'take a chance, win a prize'. Whenever I hear this call to action, I immediately break out into a cold sweat. Whether the test is to knock down 6 cans in pyramid formation or to throw a dart at a balloon, I'm there, almost hypnotically, pulling coins out of my pocket. And it doesn't really matter what prizes are on offer either. It could be stuffed panda bears, bubble makers or even Velcro wallets. What's important to me is ris…
- The Power of Online Memberships By Andrea J. Lee
Have you ever noticed geese flying overhead, whether that be south for the winter, or back home in the spring?
In Canada where I live, this is a regular sight and a sure sign of the seasons passing.
From time to time, it's easy to notice that there is a certain pattern to the flying geese. Often, they fly in formation, in a shape that makes it easier to fly as a group than alone, something that conserves energy for the trip.
Online memberships, when built right, are built on the same phi…

- Communication: Understanding The Non-Verbal Art Form Of Body Language By Kurt Hurley
"He, who knows, does not speak. He, who speaks, does not know."
-Lao TzuFundamentally, communication is expressed in verbal form. The conveyor, or he or she that is expressing, talks or writes while the recipient listens to or reads the transfer. However, there is another form of communication based on gestures or body movements. This art of non-verbal communication is better known as body language.Although spoken communication is the more direct way to convey a message or point of view, it ca…
- Help! I Need to Make a Decision! By Garrett Coan
Many people who come to my office say they have a difficult time making decisions. I have developed a process to help my clients master this skill. I recommend that people follow these four steps:1. Identify the real issue. For example, you are trying to decide which movie to see, but you are having a hard time agreeing. As you talk about it, you realize that the real issue is that you simply want some time to be together in a quiet place where you can talk. Going to a movie does not address t…
- Poise, Posture, and Performance By Roy Palmer
Good posture is seen to have many advantages. From an aesthetic point of view it can enhance image, sending out the right signals (body language). For an athlete it is seen to be essential. But what is a good posture? We recognise poor posture when we see it, as it is evident in the majority of adults regardless of athletic ability. But just to confuse the matter, people with an ideal ‘plumb-line’ posture can also have poor movement patterns. This is because it is not the shape that is importa…

Many years ago my grandfather, had a small farm and
chickens. One morning he sent me out to the chicken coop to
collect fresh eggs. He became concerned when I didn’t return

2. Lying in America - Fundamental to the Human Condition By Don Price
What has happened? Have we succumbed to habitual self deceit and deceit with others out of self preservation, fear, lack of confidence or ego? And if so, what damage do we incur in our personal life and business?Are we truly living in a world that evolves around deceit? It would appear the answer is a resounding yes.

Adults with Attention Deficit Disorder (ADD) often feel like they are running behind schedule, and just don't have the time get everything done.

4. What is Coaching? By Kimberly Chastain
Recently, I have received several emails asking me about coaching and what it is exactly. So, I decided to answer some of those questions in this article.
First, of all let me start with what coaching is not. Coaching is not therapy or counseling. Therapy tends to focus on the past whereas coaching is often more future oriented. Also, coaches are not paid friends. You certainly have friends that are all ready giving you advice. Friends are often cautious in telling you what they really think…
