  • The 3 Questions That Will Literally Save Your Life

    In an article titled *Understanding Yourself* author Ching Ning Chu described Coco Chanel, the famous French fashion designer, as starting her career not as a designer but as a well-to-do society lady.

  • Learning to Surf Life

    I’m afraid of turbulence in water. I grew up with my grandmother saying “the sea has no back door.” I believed her. Curiously I don’t like turbulence – PERIOD. Lately in life it seems that I am encountering turbulence but it’s unfamiliar. I have grown comfortable with the turbulence of not having regular work, not…

  • Feedback is the “Breakfast of Champions”. Most of us Skip Breakfast

    If I asked you “do you want to grow and improve?” I have no doubt that your answer would be “yes!” Who doesn’t want to grow or improve? Yet to do so requires sometimes hearing stuff that we’d prefer NOT to hear. What usually happens, when someone offers you feedback? If you’re like me, your…

  • How Do You Achieve REAL Adoption versus Forced Compliance

    In the past two weeks, I’ve been in conversations with people about their desire to change others. These well meaning folk seem to think that TELLING is a viable solution to effecting sustainable change. Some think that the forceful approach is best. One gentleman told me that he was tired of all talk and no…

  • Would Anyone Miss You If You Suddenly Disappeared?

    When the film-maker Carol Morley read that the skeleton of a young woman had been found in a London bedsit, she knew she had to find out more… My first contact with this story was a Facebook post “Do you know this woman? Her name is Joyce Carol Vincent. This is a British born woman…

  • What to do when you’ve Lost all Hope in Your Business

    As children we all grow up thinking and believing that there is something, outside ourselves, that’s going to “fill us up” …complete us. “What do you want to be when you grow up?” ignites thoughts of careers that include farmers, architects, bus drivers, engineers, doctors, lawyers, prime ministers and presidents. Some of us think about…
