Create A New Beginning
New Life - New beginnings. You have the ability, we all have the ability, to create a new beginning whenever we choose. And what a better time than Easter to do so. Did you know the Egg is an ancient symbol of New Life ... New Beginnings? In fact it can be traced back to Ancient Egypt and Pagan ceremonies.
Feeling Discontent? I Beg You, Stop Feeling Guilty About It!
How many times are you heard the words .... I can't complain, I have nothing to complain about really? How many times have you said these words yourself? In my work, I hear them all the time. And you know what? You can complain if you are feeling discontent and you don't have to feel guilty about feeling discontent, despite your seemly successful life.
Imposter Syndrome; Do You Suffer From It?
Ever felt like you’re in the wrong room, you must of been invited by accident? You know five other people who are better qualified to talk about this topic? You sit there feeling like a complete fraud right? This is imposter syndrome, a psychological pattern where you doubt your accomplishments and have an internal fear of being exposed as a "fraud".
What’s In A Word?
Change is hard at first, messy in the middle and gorgeous at the end – Robin Sharma. And change requires want, intent and desire. One of the things I’ve noticed that helps keep you focused on your intent is a ‘Word’, but not just any word, a word just for you, picked by you - Your Word.
Jumping To Conclusions, We All Do It
It is defined as where one 'judges' or 'decides' without having all the facts to reach unwarranted conclusions. And we have all done it. But next time before judging, shift the focus from you to them; be curious, be empathetic, be understanding and see the difference in results.
How To Stay Grounded And Calm During The Holiday Season
Different things work for different people, so if you're not sure what works for you, start with some mindfulness - its easy to get started using one of the Apps (I use smiling mind, headspace or calm) and all you need is 5-10 minutes. Incorporating this simple habit will help get you through the holiday season in a state of calm.
Are you growing? And I don't mean physically.
We are living things and all living things are either growing or disintegrating, so if you are not consciously choosing to grow, then whether you realise it or not you are disintegrating. So do you currently have a passion project? If not then think about all the things you want, really want, pick one, write it down and start taking action towards it.
Make Conscious Living Your Philosophy
Habits and beliefs created and influenced by our conditional upbringing and environment, the majority of which are created during and influenced by our formative years. So, what other unconscious habits has your mind created? How often to you do act or react in a particular way and later wish you had acted differently?
To Clutter Or To Declutter, That Is The Question.
Those who know me, know I can’t stand clutter. It drives me crazy, distracts me and I can’t concentrate until it’s dealt with. And there is good reason for me feeling this way. There has been much research and many studies on clutter and it’s all bad news. So what does clutter do to us?
Setting Yourself Up For The Best Chance Of Success
When you give yourself some time to plan ahead, you wake up feeling focused and motivated with a clear understanding of what you need to achieve, what the priorities are and what can move should the unexpected pop up.
The Power of Practicing Gratitude
I give you a challenge to experience, for yourself, the power of practicing gratitude - a 30 day challenge in fact. For the next 30 days, consecutively, write down 3 things you are grateful for.
Getting Stuff Done - Workshop
When was the last time you took some time out for yourself and contemplated, an exercise I call the 4R’s – Review, Refresh, Reset, Restart? This is exactly what my workshop “Getting Stuff Done” is created to achieve, to give you the space and time to think. And to help you get a head start on the things you want to achieve in 2019.
Travelling and Ego - What's the Connection?
Ego often gets a bad wrap and there are good reasons for this, but ego is also beneficial when managed well. Ego feeds your identity and helps create a uniqueness that makes you individual. It gives you a sense of self-importance and worth, building self-confidence and self-belief.
Let's Talk About Confidence
Confidence … is it a case of you either have it or you don't? I don't believe this is the case. To me confidence is on a continuum and depending on where you are at and the things that are happening in your world, confidence can rise and fall.
You Need to Slow Down to Create Momentum
Are you a tortoise or a hare, or a bit of both? There are times when life gets crazy and you feel out of control. This is when you need to very consciously SLOW DOWN to make progress and to move forward, instead of chasing your tail.
Being Your Authentic Self Means Challenging Social Norms
But the reality is by living true to our authentic self we not only still belong, but we find fulfilment and content where previously we felt resentment and discontent. Let’s discuss the challenge of social norms and reflect on what decisions you've made in your life that have lead you to where you are today; who influenced those decisions, would you like your story to have a different ending and what changes would you need to make to do this?
STOP Comparing Yourself to Others
Who are you comparing yourself to? Do we, in fact, have comparison all wrong? Perhaps comparison motivates you, inspires you to do better, be a better person as explained by social theory. Or maybe comparison makes you feel ‘less than’ and erodes your self-confidence?
