Sleeping with the Enemynn nSuccess is often sabotaged by a lack of self-care: a loss of self-awareness. In the dash for success and accomplishment we can often forget to remember ourselves. We can forget that if we fail to look after those areas of our life that are fundamental to our sustenance - let’s call that our personal foundation - we’ll eventually be unable to look after anyone else, never mind get to the top of hierarchy or the bottom of our to-do list.nn nThis i

Every now and again we all experience a really crappy day. One of those days where everything and everybody seem to have conspired against you and nothing goes right. Your car breaks down, your daughter has a temper tantrum, your spouse is upset, you forget your umbrella and get soaking wet in the rain and on and on it goes. Every now and again you may even feel crappy for no apparent reason at all and that can be challenging. I have certainly experienced it and really questi

Your perspective of the world is unique to you. It’s your interpretation of information gathered through your senses of sight, sound, smell, taste and touch which are woven together to form a picture that is then tinted and shaded by your society, culture, education, family beliefs, the media as well as your individual ‘evidence’ gained throughout your life.

“Mom, when we get home I need to show you something really cool!” exclaimed my 8-year-old son Jack when I picked him up from school the other day. When we got home, he opened his backpack, pulled out his Social Studies book, opened it up to the last few pages and said—“Look, isn’t this cool?” ...

The Tomorrow PeoplennAre you a professional procrastinator? Do you like putting things off until tomorrow? nnnThe distance between thinking about doing something and actually doing it is sometimes enormous.

So often during our Artist’s Way Workshops the subject of extra weight and extra baggage comes up when discussing the creative process and how to let creativity flow without blocks.

Confucius said,“Life is really simple, but we insist on making it complicated.” A thought to ponder. Let me start by simplifying the three important areas that I will be discussing in this topic – simplifying our life, simplifying our teaching, and simplifying our system. Life is how we make it. If we want it to be complicated, then it will be. But before you throw that criticizing look at me, I just want to clarify that I'm not advocating becoming a monk or joining the

Some people take risks more readily than other people. And risks can be a little scary, whether they involve making a major career change and/or cross-country move, asking for a promotion or a raise, declaring your affection to someone else when you’re not sure how that person feels, or when it necessitates speaking up to someone whose behavior has been making you unhappy.

Number OnennnOnly you know if you are looking after yourself or letting yourself go?
