The practice of possibility and the possibilities through practice
That’s impossible! How often does that phrase show up in our daily lives? Even if we are not actually saying it – if we were truthful – we think it – A LOT! “I could never get THAT job” “I could never write like THAT” “I could never learn to play the guitar like THAT…

Procrastination…how we die to our true selves daily
Henry David Thoreau urged us to go confidently in the direction of our dreams and live the life we’ve imagined. Yet we slip so easily into procrastination, like our favorite pair of pyjamas…[ahhhhhh sweet] and it prevents us from putting forth the necessary effort and work needed to be done to channel our goal from…

Are you making the best use of everything you know?
Our knowledge – everything we carry around in our heads – we take for granted. Whenever I share with professionals…”have you ever thought about putting that together as a report?” or “that would make an indispensable little e-book that you could easily sell for $19,” I get in return double rolled eyes and the response,…

The Power of Connection
We are so uber-connected these days. Technology provides us with so many self serve options that we seem to be connecting to each other less and less. I was talking with a massage therapist who recently took a “Compassionate Touch” course focused on hands-on care for those in later life stages. Some folks showed early…

The magic of writing your goals down…EVERYDAY
Personally this has to be one of the most effective techniques I have tried in keeping a steady focus on my goals and maintaining a high level of personal motivation!
Clarity BEFORE Execution. Structure BEFORE Speed
If you could better understand one thing about your business right now….
Most costly decisions begin with

resources are invested in solving the wrong problem.
