When you write it down…

I have had many employees come to me with unbridled excitement concerning their last years goals. The overwhelming reason for their excitement was the fact that when they went back and looked at what they choose as their goals for last year…they all actually came true and many exceeded their goals!! This is because when… Read more »

If we are all free to choose…

Why do some of us make poor choices that consistently puts us behind the eight ball? Well, the fact is, our choices are put into action by our thoughts, and that is the root cause. If our thoughts are based on past baggage, poor self talk or a low self esteem, we tend to make… Read more »

I have visited…

A lot of companies and met with a lot of executives. And the one common denominator I have found in those companies that are successful and have a cool vibe inside, is that the executives have turned the “Trust Level” up. They understand and realize that their employees are grown ups and when they treat… Read more »

Reflect on your…

Success’ and not your failures. Simple enough…but more difficult to do. We all seem to recall our past failures, more often than we care to admit, but they always seem to “pop up” on a regular basis. We need to balance things out by taking the time to reflect on all of our past Success’…. Read more »

Life’s Journey

A struggle or adventure…it’s your choice on how you perceive your journey. Many times we don’t start moving forward in our journey because we are comfortable with what we have…people even stay in a “Rut” because it’s cozy plus they can feel both sides, and other times we just get too nervous about what may… Read more »

Baby Steps…

In coaching, I have seen individuals, teams and departments take it to the “Next Level” when they work out a solid game plan and don’t rush the process. Regretfully, I have also seen disappointment when they attempt to rush it as well. Like when you were a kid and cut your fingernails too short…you have… Read more »

We are all different…

…and that’s the great thing about it. If we were all the same, there would be nothing to talk about. So we must embrace the differences in all, but occasionally we run into that person who is passive-aggressive, scheming, or just outright not the best person to deal with. When that happens, resist the urge… Read more »

It’s all about…

Relationships…and relationships are built over time. So when we get the opportunity to build a new relationship, don’t ignore it, take the time to make it the start of an old relationship. Because, if we take the time, we have our next opportunity to move the old relationship into a new friendship. Yours in –… Read more »

I have a sister…

Kathy – 4 years younger, she grew up with much less supervision and rules then me, I think my parents cried “uncle” after raising me and my older sister Teri. Kathy seemed to figure things out earl…she “flows” through life…we call her Mrs. Magoo – everything comes to her at the right time. Birds and… Read more »

To give or not to give…

“Giving” is the only word that is on 2 lists, one list being Positive and the other being Negative: 1. Love, gratitude, hope, dreams, passion, GIVING, etc. 2. Hate, anger, resentment, jealousy, contempt, GIVING, etc. Many people I coach have a challenge with giving too much…time, money, emotion etc. until they feel there is nothing… Read more »
