Recently we went to see the Van Gogh exhibition at the Royal Academy. I knew about his colourful paintings of French landscapes but hadn’t seen his earlier work or his pen and ink drawings. The exhibition showed how his painting style developed and how it reflected his life. And perhaps this is what you want for your working life – you want it to develop and you want it to reflect your life. The really sad thing, though, about Van Gogh’s work is that he was so unrecognised and unrewarded in his own lifetime. And this is NOT what I want for you!

After working for many years in health care as a physical therapist and health care executive, I have witnessed peoples’ life-changing events, illnesses and recoveries. I have seen how powerful the human mind is and how much our mindset affects our mind, our body, our spirit, and, most importantly, our results.

Everywhere you turn today there are businesses, schools and even churches looking seriously at their “mission” in their chosen fields and the vision of success they foresee. People are also inundated in some form with the mission statements of new products, services, entrepreneurs and politicians. Also, many colleges are requiring applicants to submit their personal mission statement and vision statement.

A house will only be as strong as its foundations. You need to remember this, next time you’re trying to rely on your willpower to manifest a positive change in your life. What is the foundation of that willpower of yours? Well, let me explain. Willpower acts on logic, and it works with your conscious mind. For example, if you’re planning on losing 20 pounds within the next 3 months you are going to have to make the conscious effort of staying on your diet and exercise routine.

We all think of making changes in our lives; but making the decision to move forward and shake things up isn’t always easy. I wrote an article some time ago about motivation and goals; the premise being that you don’t necessarily have to be motivated to act. I still believe this to be true, of course; but we also know that motivation isn’t the only reason we fail to move forward with things.

Become a better motivator. Everything rises and falls on leadership. There are two components to leadership. How you lead others. Are you a great motivator? That’s the more obvious one. The second one is how you lead yourself. Are you a good motivator for yourself? How you are a motivator for yourself will affect the motivator in your leadership of others. Small business success and small business growth are about many things. But one of the most important is the motivator

The Changing Face of Workplace Discrimination: It seems that the face of workplace discrimination is changing into a less easily recognizable one. Workers continue to be held down based on race, gender and other factors. This despite years of the government, the courts, and society in general fighting patterns of discrimination. While in the past discrimination was more overt and conscious, today’s discrimination is often largely unconscious.

Earlier today I received an email from a friend who is having a very difficult time financially and I felt that I must write to you about it because I have a message for you that many of you need to hear. My friend was laid off from his job over a year ago and has been making stock trades in an effort to make up for his lost income. At this time he is feeling all sorts of negative things about the fact that he has worked so very hard to do everything the "right" way and yet he is unable to create consistent success and has wiped out most of his investment fund.

Brendon Burchard reminds us in his new book High Performance Habits: How Extraordinary People Become That Way, that with the right habits, anyone can dramatically improve results and become a high performer in almost any chosen field. He writes:

Simply by learning to embrace and live in the moment you can achieve the happiness that seems to elude most people. Simple living is a concept that most people can't imagine because the world is so complicated. Actually your world is what you have made of it and its pace has been created by you. Think for a minute of a typical day in your life. Is it rushed from the time you wake up? Are you stressed about everything along the way or is it calm and peaceful throughout the day? The way you are living is what you have chosen, not what has been given to you.

Are you tired of being told what success is and isn’t, or counseled how to get it, as though it’s a publicly held commodity? Even when it’s couched in glowing New Age language (“success is fulfilling your destiny…”), success is still something to fit yourself into rather than something arising from within. It seems that unless you define success for yourself, it tends to get defined for you. The one universal truth about success is that how it’s defined is unique and intimat

We often hear the term "constructive criticism". Unfortunately, much criticism ends up being destructive. Would you like a chic critique? No matter how constructive someone delivers criticism, I have one question for you. Can you handle the truth? Don’t get defensive. We all need criticism. It's a part of learning. What we don't need is the anger, frustration and conflict that are so often associated with criticism.

Have you ever noticed, in city centers or other popular central places, people hugging each other? This is called the «Free Hugs» phenomenon. According to Virginia Satir, guru in family consulting, a person needs 4 hugs to survive, 8 hugs to sustain oneself and 12 hugs to be developed...per day! This is hard to believe, isn’t it? In our times, the times of isolation, how much do we hug each other?

They make mistakes, but they don’t quit.” ~ Conrad Hilton If you want accomplish anything in life you must commit to it and commitment means taking action.

A Lasting, Fulfilling, Relationship - The "Dynamic of Stay": 4 Keys to a Successful Partnership with the One You Love It is currently my honest belief that more people in the world are mystified regarding how to find - and keep love - than how to find and keep money. There was a time in my life I believed the opposite to be true. There was a day when I believed that "money" and "wealth" was the prevalent conce in the minds of most. I now believe I was wrong.

Goal setting is something we all do in our lives. It can be personal like giving up smoking or losing weight. Or it could be a professional goal such as reaching a particular sales target, achieving a particular grade in your company or, if you are running a business, breaking into a new market for getting a certain number clients. Usually at the beginning of this process there is some long-term vision in mind. People don't dream goals out of thin air, they come from an inner desire that is driving you forward.

So you think you are too old or too set in your ways to change? Not so! Neuro-plasticity research now proves what many have long known: that you are never too old to change, and more so, that you can rewire your brain to think and act in ways that lead to greater success in work, love and life.

I am such a failure! Not a very nice thing to say but it’s true. I’ve failed. I’ve made mistakes. I’m imperfect. I’ve made a mess. So what? There are only 2 exits in life and they both involve falling. I can’t remember where I read to “Fail Forward Fast”, but that term really resonated with me and if I’m going through a difficult time I remind myself that successful people fail more than unsuccessful people. When I heard the absolute secret of success is to double your failure rate. I wanted to celebrate! Studies have shown that people who try the most also fail the most.
