Resting on past glories? You’re only a success in the moment of the successful act.
Every breath I take is a new me GAUTAMA BUDDHA Studying hard for an A in math, doesn’t make you an A student forever. This is easy for us to understand intellectually, yet in our daily lives, we either want our successes to last OR feel that our past mistakes are irrevocable – we become…

What’s your favourite excuse? Mine – “I don’t have time…”
I had a boss who taught me this: Never enough time to do it right. Always enough time to do it over. This in a nutshell, describes the shortcut. The time we spend looking for shortcuts, could be invested in the deep dive we need to make into those things that fuel and drive our…

Don’t give guidance, unless it is based on your knowledge & experience
There are three excuses we love using to avoid preparing methodically and thoroughly: I want to focus specifically on the third excuse: I KNOW HOW TO DO THIS. Years ago, when I was involved with AMWAY, I heard a speaker share the following: To know and not to do, is not to know In other…

Don’t go it alone: trust, let go and welcome the unknown
When the student is ready, the teacher appears and she usually walks into a class already in session. Today I was contemplating my need for certainty and where that often leads me.

There is going to be trial and error. Yesterday I started a sign language class. Many of my readers may not know…

Who do you seek to help you regain focus, when you’re overwhelmed?
My journey, once I left ‘working for someone else’, has been for the most part – lonely. I could no longer commiserate with colleagues, get feedback nor hear any office gossip. There were no more casual encounters at the coffee station. My invites to my client’s events stopped, as I was no longer serving them.…

How are you designed to work to achieve material success?
We have lost sight of ourselves and are fixated on discovering how to do everything OUT THERE. Self-reliance is no longer revered. It’s more – look at others, copy and hopefully achieve what they are achieving. This looks and sounds logical except, we are not them. Of course we understand that we are different. We…

Are you ready to believe in the inevitability of your wealth?
Set the goal – we’ve been told. Then work your ass off to get what you want. Not getting what you want? Something is wrong with your plan. Make the necessary changes and continue to work at it. Still not getting what you want? Perhaps it’s your habits. Review your habits, swap out habits that…
Clarity BEFORE Execution. Structure BEFORE Speed
When the stakes are high, DON’T MOVE without CLARITY
You don’t need to move faster.
You need to reduce unnecessary risk.
