| Article Title :: On Missed Opportunities |
| |
| Missed Opportunities aren't all bad. If you're like most people you've had your share of missed opportunities. You know, those things you would like to have seen happen that for whatever reason just didn't quite seem to pan out. I know I have certainly had my fair share.Let me ask you this though, when was the last time that you looked at them in a positive light? ...Believe it or not all missed opportunities really aren't all bad. I am not sure if you've ever heard of the song by Garth Brooks called "Unanswered prayers", but if you haven't I would strongly suggest listening to it. I think it does a fantastic job of illustrating what I am going to discuss.I think we w (read full article) |

| Article Title :: Personal Coach: How Do You Choose One? |
| |
| Getting a personal coach can be the single most important decision in a person's life. For many, it's like having a second chance at growing up -- except they get to choose their teachers this time.But how do you make such a choice? How do you know who will best serve you as a personal coach? Accreditation? Degrees? Gender? Age? Location?My suggestion is this: Perspective. Let me give you an example about perspective from the world of psychology.Somewhere during my undergrad Psychology training, I became acutely aware that my Cognitive Psychology professor thought such and such was due to X, while my Neuro-Psychology professor thought the same such and such was due to (read full article) |

| Article Title :: Introduction to Performance Coaching |
| |
| Not too long ago ship captains could actually whip sailors who disobeyed orders; managers could fire workers on the spot for virtually any reason, or even no reason at all; and students could be expelled from school for any minor infraction of the rules. Today, much has changed. Sailors have rights, workers have unions, and students are asked for input in the educational process.The person in charge used to have unquestioned authority and ability to command and compel. Strict obedience was believed to be a necessity. Today, managers must focus on leading and persuading rather than ordering and forcing. In more and more industries today, especially retail, the never-ending supply of (read full article) |

| Article Title :: The Keys To Conscious Living |
| |
| In the course of life, each person is the both the architect and builder. That means that every step of the way, we design and create our lives the way we want it. But what about the steps leading up to that? In other words, the million dollar question is: how do we know what we want to create in order to create it? This is probably the most common question I get as a coach, and, I believe the doorway to conscious living.Well, the keys to that doorway lie in finding our purpose and/or passions. Ironically though, we also tend to tie that question often with the flow of money. Someone told me once to "do what I loved and the money would follow". Well, after many years of ponderin (read full article) |

| Article Title :: Marketing On Purpose With Passion And Play |
| |
| In a recent class on how to build your business on purpose with passion and play, I offered the following simple definition for coaches for Marketing: Sharing and engaging people in a possibility for their lives that inspires them to take action with an intention to close the gap that exists between where they currently are and the possibility they see for life.As you consider this perspective, please ponder these questions:Who are you here to share your offering with? (Be as specific as you can. For example, I'm here to share with Burned Out or Burning Out Baby Boomers.)What is the possibility you're offering? In other words, what problem can you help solve for the p (read full article) |

| Article Title :: Hope |
| |
| "Just when the caterpillar thought the world was over, it became a butterfly" -anonymousHopeAs I sat on a plane going to Atlanta, I felt the sadness that has been welling up inside of me thinking about the funeral of my dear niece Sara. I just spoke to her less than a week before on the phone. We actually had a longer than normal conversation, lasting almost a half hour. I detected nothing in her voice to lead me to worry about her. She seemed to be dealing with her life and the recent surgery removing her appendix, and getting back to work. I heard nothing that sounded an alarm. That’s the thing about suicide. There often is no outward sign that something is wrong. (read full article) |

| Article Title :: How to Deal with Difficult People |
| |
| Dealing with difficult peopleNo matter whether in business or whatever you are doing in life, there are always times when people are in difficult moods, and you are the person that is having to deal with them. This is the time to remember Don Miguel Ruiz’s advice from The Four Agreements, “Don’t take it personally.” It really doesn’t have anything to do with you. If you make the mistake of taking it personally, you will probably realize that it becomes a spiraling downward mess.If you respond defensively, then they will too. Suddenly things that would normally be workable are now impossible to even discuss. Stop! Take a breath. Take another breath. Now start (read full article) |

| Article Title :: Compassion Fatigue & The Therapist |
| |
| There is a new phrase emerging in the psychotherapy community. It's "Compassion Fatigue". What does this mean? Why is it happening? What does it say about the nature of the "help" many therapists, who are succumbing to it, are actually affording their clients, if any? What can and needs to be done about it?In order to answer many of these questions I will draw on my own personal experience of having been a psychiatrist/psychotherapist for almost 20 years and for having been directly affected by "compassion fatigue".Much of my training was in traditional psychotherapeutic modalities i.e. analytical psychotherapy, interpersonal therapy, cognitive behavioral therapy, as well as (read full article) |

| I was once told that there are only two types of people the world dislikes.People that failPeople that succeedWhere do you play, and Do you take a Stand in Life?Many of us spend way too much time playing the middle for various reason. Whether we are fearful of failure or lacking belief in our ability to succeed we face the temptation to play the middle ground of safety.You see, the middle ground keeps us out of the limelight of public failures and safe from the resulting criticism and we also avoid being targets because of success. What we are doing is playing it safe. Most people don't like to be targets of criticism.Are you playing it safe? Are (read full article) |
