7 Key Steps to Unshakable Confidence
by: Steve Brunkhorst
Do you remember that day? Perhaps it was your first job interview. Perhaps you were speaking to a group for the first time. Maybe you were starting a challenging new career or meeting a special person for the first time. Your throat became dry and your knees wanted to shake.
You were about to leave a place of mental and emotional safety. You were putting your skills on the line and taking a risk. If you were successful, there could be great reward. However, self-doubt was trying to discourage you.
Confidence is essential in our lives; without it, we will not make the first attempt to do what we really want. Confidence allows (read full article) |

Discover the Key to Self-confidence

"One important key to success is self-confidence. An important key to self-confidence is preparation" - Arthur Ashe
Self-confidence is necessary for success
As Arthur Ashe says preparation is an important key to self-confidence. And preparation can be achieved by using the goal setting tool of questions. Asking questions, that is, doing research, can enable you to become proficient in whatever subject or area you want you to.
Self-confidence is necessary not only to achieve success with our goals, but also to live a happier and contented life. When we have self-confidence, we can overcome many of life's obstacles easier. How then (read full article) |

Every Passing Minute Is A Chance To Turn It All Around
by: Maria E. Andreu
Every passing minute.
When I first heard this line, in the movie Vanilla Sky, it struck a powerful chord in me. Sure, it’s a sentiment I’d heard countless times before, that at any given moment you could set changes in motion that would alter the course of your life. But something about the phrasing. Every passing minute. It’s immediate, it’s powerful, it’s crucial and present. It’s right this minute.
It doesn’t break your destiny into flows of days or months. It’s not, “This month you could change everything.” What is a month anyway, an amalga (read full article) |

Finding Inspiration to Realise Your Dreams and Ambitions

"Keep away from people who try to belittle your ambitions. Small people always do that, but the really great make you feel that you, too, can become great." Mark Twain

No Class

Direct Answers - Column for the week of November 18, 2002
The manager of a very posh store in New York City has this weird habit of touching her employees' lunches. She has picked up sandwiches and taken bites out of them without permission. She even sticks her finger into their donuts or muffins while they are eating them.
She laughs and thinks it is funny. I find it disgusting and rude. What is wrong with this woman? People have said things to her, but she continues to abuse her authority. Since she rules the store, what can they do?
Mardi
Mardi, there is one thing they can do about this woman's behavior. Make her disappear! They can do this (read full article) |

Accessing Your Spiritual Guidance
by: Margaret Paul, Ph.D.
For the last 35 years, I have been working with individuals, couples and families, as well as business relationships. I have 8 published books on relationships and healing, some of them best-sellers. In the first half of my career, I worked as a traditional psychotherapist, and was not happy with the results. In the last 18 years I have worked with a process called Inner Bonding, which is a powerful six step psychological and spiritual healing process. I discovered that there is no real healing without a personal connection with a source of spiritual guidance.
Everyone in recovery - whether from alcohol, drugs, food, spending, (read full article) |

Nostalgia: What Are We Really Looking For?
by: eBobb
Have you ever noticed what an amazing editing job we do when we think about the past? Those summers at the lake have become positively halcyon: gone are the sunburn and mosquitoes, the rainy days, the continuous fights with siblings and/or bunkmates. Mom’s cooking has improved considerably with time and distance, and we remember exclusively the birthday when we got that first two-wheeler that we wanted more than anything else on earth. And then, there are all those old snapshots and home videos where everybody’s smiling. All the time. Apparently, we make a point of not recording any tears. Or – is it possible that (read full article) |

Where You Can Find Sympathy
by: Gene Simmons
Ask any of my kids and they’ll tell you immediately that you’ll find it in the dictionary between “sh—“ and “syphilis”. Wasn’t that absolutely cruel and unkind of me to instill in them a nearly total distain for the concept of “sympathy”? With so many individuals in the world suffering in so many ways, how could I possibly be so heartless? I am without a doubt, an uncaring, evil SOB!
Well, maybe not. Here are a couple of things to think about. First, I’ll give you my definition of sympathy: “A sharing or agreement of feelings with another person”. It’s not exactly what shows in the dictionary but it’s pr (read full article) |

Still Wondering About Coaching?
by: Susan Dunn
A friend called me the other day from Lower Alabama. He has followed my career as a coach with enthusiasm, and continually refers clients to me, and I’m sure has done his part for making coaching known in his neck of the woods. “Coaching has arrived,” he said. “I just heard an ad for a coach on my local radio station.”
I still speak to audiences on cruises, however, where no one has heard of coaching. What is coaching, who partakes of it, and how does it work? Here are some words from the media.
WHO HAS A COACH?
“Who exactly seeks out a coach?” asked an article in the Chicago Tribune, and their answer was: “Winners (read full article) |
