One of the hallmark traits of most successful people is that they are never satisfied with the status quo. They always aspire for more and feel they owe it to themselves to reach for the stars. Part of this process involves learning. Successful people are always eager to learn, sometimes even ...

You just got used to the upgraded software your company insisted all departments use even though there was absolutely nothing wrong with the old software when--ding! New email, new directive--time to jettison the upgraded software in favor of a completely new system you have to learn from ...

We all know that just as there are words which uplift and enthrall us, there are words which can hurt and demean us. But did you know that there is one four-letter word that actually kills?! No, it’s not that four-letter word, it’s the word “can’t.” The word “can’t” kills dreams, hopes, aspirations, opportunities, love – the list goes on. “Can’t” puts a stop, a halt, an immediate end to all effort, to all forward movement. “I can’t do that.” “I can’t go there.” “I can’t attr

How do you end your year? Without much thought and barely a glance back? Or, do you bend down and kiss the ground you walk on because you made it through another year – just barely! There's personal strength, refreshed energy and renewed focus to be gained from mindfully acknowledging and ...

A friend of mine broke her upper arm recently. Considering she’s a massage therapist who’s been out of work on and off all year due to COVID, plus having a hastily re-organized virtual wedding as opposed to the long planned-for wedding of her dreams, along with the death of her beloved grandmother, this was just one more “yikes” she has had to deal with. She feels like she’s been tossed around like a rag doll by events. Nothing like the calm, ordered, happy life she’s experie

As a Counsellor and Life Coach, self care has always been very important to me and to the people I have supported (in a professional capacity). Self care is something that I always advocate. However, self care can sometimes be misunderstood. To gain some clarity on this topic, I refer to an article by Megha Pulianda (a Ph.D. student in counselling psychology at Texas Woman’s University). She states “Self-care is anything but a one-time act. It is a mindset and a process”. A process indeed!

You love your family dearly, but right now, they are driving you positively buggy. You’re waging the battle of the belly-button/nose/tongue piercings with your teenage daughter, your husband is jammed with deadlines at work and can’t help out with chores; your five-year-old has a persistent case ...

I can’t begin to imagine, anyone ever wishing for something like this to happen to them. I mean really, this is not my idea of a real good time and yet, out of what is seemingly one of the darkest moments of my life there have come some incredible blessings. On May 18th, 2008, at approximately ...

I am not a big fan of New Year’s Resolutions… People get all revved up and it lasts a few hours, days or maybe weeks, but eventually, most people quit and they wind up thinking of themselves as quitters. No will power. Losers. New Year’s resolutions set people up for failure is you ask me. And the more we fail, the more we expect to fail. So when all is said and done, we are worse off than we were before the resolution… Something isn’t working, wouldn’t you say? I’d much rather celebrate success than focus on what doesn’t work…

Fear keeps us from truly being who we are, we let our fears stand in the way of fully embracing our inner being. The time has come to learn how to move past our fears in order that we may shine as the being we are meant to be. Most of us learned early on in life how not to be ourselves. We let all the shoulds get in the way. I should be more responsible, I should be smarter, I should be quieter, I should be thinner, I should be richer, I should be more patient, I should be kinder and the list goes on and on and on. The first clue is when you hear the word should spoken aloud or in your head.

The role of a bank clerk is very important in a bank. They carry out almost all the the functions in the bank. This makes it a high demand career option. Banking sector offers a large variety of jobs; however the majority of youth is inclined towards the post of bank clerk. IBPS is a recruiter of banks, which conducts exams every yeaer for various posts. This year, it wil be conducting CWE for clerical posts and post of bank po.

As a teenager, I could not wait to be 21. I just had to get there and life would be on. No thought of the years to come especially giving that 30 and beyond seemed so far away and old. I could not imagine what being 40 would be like as I found that being in my 30's was actually not such a big deal, it was surprisingly a lot of fun.

The Ten Commandments, in whatever form, are a good controlling factor for the suggested behavior of man, but do they really hold water when it comes right down to it? Another reality check is that no one lives, lived, or will live without breaking all ten commandments, and on a consistent basis. Mission impossible! The root of that absurdity itself: the Ten Commandments—and the variations that exist in all forms of worship and adoration, and where these notions came from, is a concept of utter confusion for the vast majority of humankind. So-called ‘faith’ is not an answer.

Personal power is something that many people think they can “get” by controlling or manipulating others. Actually, power comes from “being” personal power. It’s a quality of radiance. I would not call power over others, personal power. I see that as mere force, based in scarcity and fear mentality. Do you realize that “survival of the fittest” is really just a paradigm? Science already shows that there is no “objective” reality, and Einstein said long ago “reality is an illusion; albeit a very persistent one.”

I know that sometimes it may be hard to believe you really can follow your passions and purpose AND make money, touch lives, AND have all the peace and security you want. I've said many times before that I can't think of many things better than being self-employed. But self-employment isn't ...

If you're constantly following the status quo, doing what everybody's doing, then you'll also be getting the same results as everyone else, and not getting what you truly desire. If you want something different from the crowd, you'll have to do things differently. So how exactly do you go against the status quo to get what you want? Action Step #1 - What are you struggling with?

For most people, hearing that you can be, do or have anything you want just by thinking about it is an incredibly attractive message. Some people will go to work on the knowledge they learn whereas others will just sit back and wait to see others using this law before they try it ...

The Art of Selling Yourself at your next interview. “If nothing is ever sold, nothing will ever be created.” Buck Rodgers (President of IBM) If you don’t sell, promote, and make yourself look interesting, you will not achieve the bright and fulfilling future that you desire. “How can we say good things about ourselves, when no-one ever says anything good about us?” This is a questio I am often asked at lectures. It’s a fact that people don’t give enough praise and encourage

The Case for Positioning versus Branding / Online Marketing How do Brand and Position co-exist? Have you ever considered the difference in the two words and their impact on the success of your company and its product offerings?

As someone who is very interested in current events, sports, politics, the state of our economy and world, and more - I pay a lot of attention to the news (sometimes more than is probably healthy for me). I read newspapers, check out various news sites/blogs, watch TV, and listen to the radio. With all of this news and information, I'm often struck by how little of it is "good news," especially these days.

If you are not happy with certain aspects and circumstances in your life, change them rather than waiting for miracles to happen. You are a creator and you already have everything you need to create a life that’s filled with love, happiness, abundance, peace and freedom. Maybe it won’t be within your reach to win an Olympic gold medal, to become the next Hollywood superstar or to be the next president of the United States. But it doesn’t really matter, because all you really want is happiness and fulfillment.

Johann Wolfgang Von Goethe said, “As soon as you trust yourself, you will know how to live.” I speak with many people who don’t trust one thing or another in life. Ultimately, what they don’t trust is themselves and their ability to make right choices. The result is dissatisfaction and a feeling ...

The theme for this article is PERSISTENCE. I feel that persistence is one of the main keys behind all successful people. Every successful person will tell you that their ongoing persistence is what separated them from those who gave up. Persistence is the power to hold on in spite of everything else -- to endure. This is a winner’s quality. Persistence is also the ability to face defeat again and again without giving up -- to push on in the face of great dif?culty. It also m

Have you come across a person who is so naturally friendly that when you put him inside a room of strangers, he'll be friends with almost everyone in no time? We call such a people-person, someone unbelievably nice and charismatic that he can charm anyone into doing anything. A socially-empowered person achieves so much greatness, basically because of the people that catapult him to success. He earns the trust and all-out support of the people, whom he had helped before. He

For most people, the idea of seeking professional counseling is likely to be very intimidating and even unsettling. But if your problems are severe, have persisted for some time, or your personal efforts have been ineffective, it is advisable and advantageous to seek professional help. Since ...

Most people see leadership as something people do in front of others, but true leadership starts within each of us. It starts with knowing your true purpose and aim and then acting on that knowledge in a way that remains true to your core values. It doesn't take a rocket scientist to observe what is going on right now in our country and to realize that many of our leaders (elected or otherwise) have lost their way. These people are not necessarily bad people, but at some point they forgot their true self and got lost in their ego and survival.

LOVE THINE ENEMY (%^&*$?!!!) You hate your supervisor. There – you finally said it. You’ve been pussy-footing around it (and her) for long enough now. That’s it, you’ve had it! Let the truth be told – you hate your supervisor. Your reflection in the mirror scowls back at you. You sigh, ...

In just 10 days, I will have the honor of leading The Shadow Process Workshop in Los Angeles. It is an indescribable blessing to witness the transformation that occurs for each and every participant as they journey out of the darkness of their old, outdated stories and limiting, negative beliefs into the light of forgiveness, self-acceptance, wholeness, and love. The last time I led the workshop in L.A., I took the red-eye home to Miami. Then as my demonstration of self-love,

The end sounds final, ominous, and frightening to many. How about you? Are you ready for the end? Are you ready to accept the end? What will you do at the end? In all that we do, we should start with the end in mind. What is the end of this project, goal, or adventure? Only in focusing on the end, the accomplishment, the finished product, or the results, will we be able to chart the course necessary. We are like ships. We go from one port to another. The key is to know where you are going before you leave the dock.

I wish I’d coined the phrase, “Success comes in Cans.” Its accuracy was on my mind as I spent time with two people in Can’t Mode. One of them was open to reframing thoughts and statements; the other was not. One is currently in a funk and has been paying rent to live in Funkville for a couple ...

The process of decision making can sometimes be an interesting topic to discuss. I am often asked “What is the best way to make decisions?” While there is no single, plain, and simple answer to so complex and wide a question, there are certain things that I have learnt about decision making. These lessons have been learnt through my life (personal and professional) experiences, and through the wisdom that many experts in the field of personal development have written and spoken about.

This article discusses the Shelly Manning End of Gout program. Some people do not know what gout is. It is a form of inflammatory arthritis. This feeling can be annoying. William Morrison says that gout is mostly seen in selves with elevated blood uric acid. Arthritis is a health disease that causes distress, redness, swelling, tende ess, and needle-like crystals in the joints. Gout is common in people 60 years of age and older. This is attributed to cooking. William adds ot

You look ahead to the New Year, and you’re scared. There, you’ve said it. It’s out in the open, you’re scared. Your situation has never looked this bleak. Sure, you still have your job, but in this economy, for how long? Raises and promotions are out of the question (forget about a bonus) and ...

The words, personal power, always make me think of Tony Robbins (I obviously have watched way too much late-night infomercial TV!). Don't worry, this is not a hype-fest, exhorting you to (punching fist in the air) take control of your life. It is, though, a gentle call to action. More about that in a minute. As a business owner, you have lots of opportunities to use your power. You are the one who gets to decide not just the WHAT of your business: your offerings, systems, an

Ever wonder what you need to know and do to live your best, most amazing life? Some people make it look so easy. They’re happy most of the time, have interesting jobs that they love, plenty of money to do what they want and freedom for fun on a regular basis. If something “bad” happens they ...

Good morning everyone…. I woke up this morning wondering why this week has felt so long. Then I realized that it is Thursday so I felt a little better….so close to Friday. When we come off of a holiday weekend sometimes we get all messed up just by having that Monday off. You would think that by going through this year after year I would adjust. (I’m sure that my Mama would have had a saying for this one!) And….this brings me to the topic of life going WAY TOO FAST!!! For instance, what is with the text messaging language? Seriously I do not get it and I’m not sure that I will.r

Change is inevitable, but can be overwhelming when it comes all at once. In the last year I’ve gone through some of the top most stressful things that can happen to a person several times over including moving, change of career and broken relationships. Here are some of the tips and tricks I use to get me through. Feel free to pick and choose the ones that work for you. 1. Making the decision to take a step forward was the toughest part. a.

How often do you find yourself in an anxiety tizzy because of something you're worrying about? In fact, you're so upset or anxiety-ridden or regretful that you've forgotten to pay attention to the POTENTIAL for growth, opportunity, and joy that is unfolding at that very moment. I am a strong ...

Achieving a healthy weight is not just about the food you eat. It's about self-esteem, self-worth, and a healthy emotional life. A recent study confirmed that low self-esteem preceded weight gain. Adolescent girls who viewed themselves as unpopular were 69% more likely to gain weight than their ...

Most adults have grown up with the idea that leadership is a job, title or position, not a way of life that expresses your unique purpose in life. They think that you become a leader by your position in your job or your community and not by the daily actions you take. That is an erroneous example of leadership. The best way to teach children how to be leaders is to let them lead themselves in as much as they are capable of doing.

One of the hugest sabotages I see uber-gifted clients consistently make is focusing on the BIG WINS, whether in their personal life or business, rather than cultivating the small actions that are going to lead them to big wins … without stress. Did you catch the “without stress” part? One of the most significant investments you can make into growing your vision is taking the time to team with others in everything you do. I call it the 3 F’s. Except these 3 F’s mean success: Faith, Family and Friendships.

Obesity is a serious problem and you’re not helping! I am truly blessed! I mea I get up each morning and have the opportunity to get out and exercise. Run, bike, walk, weight train; I can choose and I do. I am not an uber-elite athlete, in fact while I do like to participate in events like ...
