Daily Awareness Excercise - A Way To Upgrade Brain Software

June 28th, 2009

By Jerry D. Posner

There are only six simple steps … try it daily for 21 days.

If you’d like to tweak a few habitual thought patterns … and upgrade the brain software, then this is for you!

Read these cliche-like reminders (”focus phrases”) and ponder them for a minute or two … but do it daily for 21 days.

As you play with this process, keep a pad or journal handy, and jot down any revelations, great ideas, or your own cliche-like “focus phrases” that come to mind.

THE DAILY AWARENESS EXERCISE – Read and ponder the following six phrases:

  • 1. There are ways that I can remember and practice points-of-view, behaviors, beliefs and actions that give optimal results, especially when I know what results I’m seeking.
  • 2. I can evaluate my own beliefs and habits with compassion and a cool head.
  • 3. I can make changes as necessary, especially when my desire is clear and strong.
  • 4. I see the wisdom in liberally expressing gratitude and appreciation.
  • 5. It is possible for me to evaluate feedback without becoming defensive.
  • 6. I can have some fun every day; it will probably make me less annoying.

Where is THERE?

June 10th, 2009

By Kelly A. Morgan

THERE is the “place” in life that an individual wants to be in regards to the four primary areas of life; it may or may not be a physical location. For example, THERE may be an on-site dig near the pyramids in Giza for an archeologist, but for an author, THERE may be the New York Times’ Best Seller List; for a dedicated student, THERE may be walking across the stage for graduation; for a Christian child, THERE may be Christmas morning. Once an individual reaches his or her THERE, they will find the reward they’ve sought and feel the exhilaration of finally getting their heart’s desire.

What is it that you truly want for your life?

And more importantly, what is it that’s been getting in your way?

If your intuitive response is “Life,” that is your first clue that there is an imbalance in your life and that it is time to realign your life based on your heart’s desires.

Journey to a Place Called THERE is a guide for creating a balanced life. The goal is to help you get “THERE” which is your ideal place in life by focusing on the four primary areas of life: Relationships, Health, Spirituality and Finances. As you travel through the pages of Journey and complete the included worksheets, you will identify areas of your life that need improvement, develop a plan to achieve your desired life, and learn to walk into your success confidently. At that point, you will have reached your destination THERE and you will begin to live the life you’ve always desired and aspired to lead. So, forget about the stumbles that you may have had in the past; forget the naysayers who said you couldn’t. All that matters is what you do today, in this moment. With Journey to a Place Called THERE as your navigation guide, the quest towards your ideal life can begin now. All you have to do is choose to realize that you are worth the trip.

Are You an Authentic Leader?

May 28th, 2009

By Victoria FittsMilgrim, Professional Certified Coach & Retreat Leader

When I say I’m an Authentic Leadership Coach I’m often asked:  What is an Authentic Leader? The answer I feel, is universal - we’re all Leaders within.  This is the place of Sovereignty for us - where we always have the opportunity to be conscious and aware of who we are, what really matters to us and the life we will create. Authentic Leadership then, is knowing your True Self and having your actions and behaviors follow in line with that unique truth.  
 
So, know yourself (very old wisdom, indeed) and act accordingly.  While so easy to say, this can be very challenging to live.  Our culture is very powerful and has many agendas for us that don’t connect to our authentic self.  How do you remain clear in the face of this non-stop bombardment of values and direction that aren’t your own?  
 
For me the best way to stay connected and honor who I am comes from spending time in the natural world.  It is here that I remember that I am not alone.  I am a part of something much, much bigger than myself.  I hold a sacred spot in the community of life.  We all do.  Read more »
