201. The Pitfalls of Procrastination By Lorraine Pirihi
     We all put off making decisions and taking action sometimes (yes, me too). It's okay to do that occasionally but if you are a regular pontificator then it will constantly cause you pain, even if you aren't aware of it. By putting things off on a regular basis you hold yourself back and instead of progressing in your life, you'll regress.Mary's StoryI've been coaching Mary for over the past 6 months and she is a classic procrastinator. She'll often agree to taking necessary action which results…



202. The Tolerance Effect By Jeannette Kraar
     While working with a client several months ago, we went through a process of identifying areas of personal strengths and weaknesses. Through this exercise, we discussed various characteristics and ended up deciding that there was opportunity for improvement in her level of “tolerance”. A funny thing happened after that. When she found herself in a situation that had previously triggered a negative reaction be it disappointment, irritation, frustration, anger or even animosity (usually focused…

205. Expectations Can Get In Our Way By Marion Franklin
     There are times when we truly look forward to something just as there are times when we totally dread something. What is the difference between anticipation with joy and anticipation with anxiety? Where and how does that expectation actually take place? If we think about it, the expectations take place in our minds. And, what that really means is that we totally make it up. We tend to create ideas and stories about how wonderful or awful something might be.If we expect things to be positive an…



206. How to Crack a Daunting Task! By Donna P. Lendzyk
     If you have a daunting task and the mere thought of it overwhelms you, it's probably too big to implement directly and should be broken down into actionable parts. I find this happens to me frequently -- I see the big strategic goal that I want to achieve, but become paralyzed thinking about the size of the project. To accomplish my overall goal, I need to crack this task into small doable pieces. In that way, I keep it simple and focused on one thing at a time.Five Questions to Ask Yourself t…



207. Using Audio Programs to Increase Your Knowledge and Productivity By Bill Marshall
     If you do any significant amount of driving, a simple thing you can do to increase your productivity is to listen to audio programs in your car. If your commute time to work is 45 - 60 minutes each way, you can easily listen to at least 1 book each week. Over the course of a year, that can add up to about 50 books. That is a significant number.But here are a couple of ways you can further increase the amount of audio you listen to. The primary tool you will need is an iPod or some comparab…



208. ROI on the 8-Step Coaching Model By Chris Stowell
     Every training program should be examined for cost effectiveness; that is, the value of the program to the cost of implementing that program. The 8-Step Coaching Model taught by CMOE is no exception. The following story is an example of how one manager determined the worth of the program.A National Sales Manager, Jim, contacted me to discuss a problem with one of his field reps, Fred, who lived in another part of the country. Fred’s performance had been seriously declining and, despite Jim’…



209. Trainers, Make Me Feel Wanted! By Eric Garner
     Have you ever been on one of those courses where the trainer stood at the front, told you how fantastic they were, showed endless slides to prove it… and never mentioned your name once?I have and I hated it. I don’t know about you, but a day on a course like that turns me into a demoralized wreck. I know it shouldn’t affect me… and it’s probably got something to do with whether I was breast-fed or not (I was, by the way!)… but these kind of experiences pull my self-esteem down to zero.So now I…



210. We Are Exactly Where We Choose to Be By Greg Reid
     The idea for this month's newsletter came from an unlikely encounter: I recently had lunch with a new friend named Rick Rockwell. You may remember him as the bachelor from the first-ever reality TV show, "Who Wants to Marry a Multimillionaire?"During our meeting, Rick described some of the knowledge he gained from doing the show, along with a few of past his experiences in business, ethics, and of course, primetime romance. The stories were fantastic, the drama was riveting, and as Rick detail…



211. Do You Ever Give Up Coaching Employees? By Chris Stowell
     In principle, we don’t want to give up coaching employees. We want to believe that we can eventually make a difference. Sometimes it’s our own ego that drives our persistence and determination.In reality, if we have followed the coaching process, we have honored our stewardship as a coach. This is especially true if we have followed the process for a significant period of time. However, coaches often make the mistake of staking their pride and confidence as a coach on one or two challengin…



212. Encourage Personality Testing By Kate Hufstetler
     I was asked the other day : "Kate, is personality testing novelty, frivolity, or common sense?"The answer is: It depends on whether or not you utilize them properly.I highly recommend them for anyone who is in a relationship of any kind: business, friendships, family, etc. (so all of us)Personality tests enhance our perspective.The best way to utilize a personality test result is by looking for strengths (to enhance) and identifying weaknesses (to downplay or eliminate). When we have the …

214. Self-contentment Leads to Confidence By Lisa Martin
     Being self-content means accepting and acknowledging who you are at your core and becoming satisfied -- maybe not perfect, but satisfied -- in all areas of your life. When you learn to better understand, better appreciate and eventually love yourself, you exude a quiet confidence that will open doors to what you want in life. One way to develop a strong sense of self-contentment is to give yourself the gift of self-appreciation. Offer yourself the same respect and kindness you give to other…



215. What Do You Really Want ? By Lorraine Pirihi

The enormous impact you have on other people's lives always astounds me.Let me share with you John's story…John is a partner in a financial planning practice. He's always worked long hours and when he finally went home, he was buggered. Apart from his work, there was no energy left over to contribute to his health and personal relationships. He was fortunate to have a wife who put up with this. In fact, it was a wonder that she ever got pregnant, a…



216. Commitment and Change By Steve Taubman
     Ten years ago, I was living an entirely different life. I owned a large chiropractic, holistic health clinic. I was the president of my state chiropractic association, and I was seeing many hundreds of people for their health concerns each month. I was, by all outward measures, successful.Yet, I was discontent. Everything on the outside seemed alright, but I couldn’t get excited about my life. I felt bored, anxious, frustrated, and unhappy. I started to notice that I had developed the habit of…

That was 10 years ago.We've kept in touch, but our phone conversations and twice-a-year visits became opportunities for my friend to talk endlessly about her problems. When I tried to fill her in on my own life, she obviously tuned out.In the past few years I've not visited her at all and dread her occasional p…



218. Coaching Skills By Chris Stowell
     IntroductionThe question for leaders in organizations today is how do we go about unleashing motivation, facilitating idea creation, promoting information flow and go beyond being Number One? How do we distance ourselves from our competitors? We cannot relax and take our success for granted. Our competitors are fierce and anxious to take back market share, produce the next blockbuster product, or invent some new technology to better serve customers.One of our greatest competitive advantages is…



219. Coach Less Earn More: 4 Ways to Eliminate Complimentary Coaching Sessions Using Simple Audio By Leesa Barnes
     As more and more coaches diversify their coaching business with a variety of products and services, many are questioning the value of offering complimentary coaching sessions.

221. The Power of Visualization By John Assaraf
     Professional athletes and other highly successful people use the power of visualization technique on a regular basis. Why? Results of a 20-year study of the effects of visualization on results revealed an amazing discovery. Humans see pictures on the screen of the mind when thoughts are being processed; i.e. when they think of things.For example, if a person, let’s say, George Right, stopped doing what he was doing right now, closed his eyes and thought of his car. What would he see? Is it the…



222. Control, Helplessness, and Love By Margaret Paul, Ph.D.
     During my 35 years of counseling individuals, couples, families and business partners, I have discovered that an important purpose of our controlling behavior in our relationships is to avoid the feeling of helplessness. One of the hardest feelings to feel is helplessness. Most of us are unwilling to even know what we are and are not helpless over. Our controlling behavior toward others generally comes from our unwillingness to accept our helplessness over others' feelings and behavior. We do …



223. Leadership Coaching at Gettysburg By Chris Stowell
     The battle at Gettysburg is one of the most notable events in U.S. History. It is a battle where more lives were taken than in any other battle in North America. In this small farming community in 1863, George Meade’s Union Army comprising of 90,000 troops met Robert Lee’s Confederate Army of 75,000. We can read volumes of literature and accounts of heroes, leaders, front-line soldiers and others directly and indirectly impacted by the event. Certainly there are incredible leadership coach…



224. The Lonely Leader By Alan Cutler
     John had started small but, over the years, he had built his business up, and he now employs over 20 staff. It had taken hard work, long hours (and an understanding family). Whilst, in the early days, he knew all his staff personally and was, himself, involved in front-line operations, these days his role is more detached: he leads from a distance. Yet, with a bigger operation and more staff come more problems. It would not be so bad if he worked for a large company – he would have company…



225. How Could Choosing to Not Do It All Enhance Your Impact? By Susan Edwards
     How often have you heard yourself say, ”I’ve got so many balls in the air I don’t know how I can possibly keep track of them all”.We may be managing to keep the balls in motion, but how good is our juggling performance really? Are our movements controlled and rhythmic? Or are we merely gritting our teeth and hoping to catch the next ball before it falls on the ground?Recently I was speaking with a colleague (we'll call him Craig) who is a high achievement-oriented and well-regarded senior mana…
