Would You Know a True Dream if it Bit You?

So what is a “true dream?” I think it is simply a thought, an idea, a mental representation of something we believe is not true for us now, but which we desire to make true.

Free to a Good Home – Dreams

I’ve been cleaning out my closet. And I’m getting rid of a lot. Of dreams. Not because they are too big. Not because they are too small either. But because they aren’t right for me. Here we are, about to begin another year. Arguably, we begin a new year every day. But we, the “civilized [...]

You DO Have a Magic Wand!

Ah magic! We all have it. But so often we close ourselves to our own magic and look to others for the transformations we want to create in our selves and in our businesses. So I offer all prospects and clients a full disclaimer – “I do not have magic wands or magic pills. This [...]

Are You Putting Off Facing YOUR Brick Wall?

Procrastination, I explained, is not a brick wall. It’s a symptom of a brick wall. I mean, think about it – if you knew that moving forward was going to cause you to bang your head on a brick wall you’d put it off as long as possible, wouldn’t you?

Bright, Shiny Excuse or Opportunity to Explore Wisdom?

Didn’t I just let a bright shiny thing derail my productivity for the day? After all, posting to the blog was on my list of “to-dos” and here it is nearly 9PM and I’m just now getting to it. Surely that isn’t responsible “life balance.”

I actually received TWO huge gifts from that bright, shiny thing.

Will You Allow Yourself to BE?

When the delightful and insightful Ava Diamond shared  the picture above, taken with her brand new camera at Fossil Creek Reservoir in Colorado, the words that came to me were from the soundtrack from Jonathan Livingston Seagull, the movie. (Neil Diamond’s voice at its most spectacular, images that take your heart soaring and plummeting and spinning dizzy into [...]

Is that ALL That You Yam? – Daily Dose of Dynamite

This is one of my favorites from the “Dream it – Plan it – Work it – Live it” deck. The King of Clubs… “Are you using ‘I am what I am’ as an excuse for being less than you can be?” “I yam what I yam and that’s all that I yam.” One of [...]

Finding Stillness Through Staying Fluid

As biological creatures we are always in a state of change. Our cells turn over, our viewpoints adjust to accommodate new data, our expressions become colored with idioms as words take on new cultural implications – we change internally and in response to external stimuli. Sometimes we feel like everything is in a state of [...]

See Yourself – See Your World

A Reflection: • Image, representation, counterpart… • Fixing the thoughts on something, careful consideration… • The return of light heat, sound after striking a surface… • The bending or folding back of a part upon itself… Since the beginning of civilization we have sought to see ourselves. We looked for mirror images in still pools [...]
