Living an extraordinary life
All of life is either surviving or thriving. Whether it is a plant or animal or human, this is how life is. Question becomes, "how do we live an EXTRAORDINARY life?" In order to create this breakthrough, we must first examine the limits of the "ordinary" life. Then, it becomes possible to create a new dimension. We can also establish the tools for creating freedom, joy, happiness and love.

Why do we struggle?

So, why do we struggle and perpetuate this insanity of doing the same things over and over, hoping for different results, yet not really getting anything to substantially change? How is that we, perfectly intelligent human beings, continue to struggle and suffer? It just doesn't make any sense. We should be happy, shouldn't we? In this article, we'll examine our attachment to struggle, and how to break free.

Creating Breakthroughs in Business

"The significant problems we face cannot be solved at the same level of thinking we were at when we created them." - Albert Einstein We need to radically shift from doing more of the same expecting different results - that's insanity! We need to create a breakthrough which is fundamentally a function of two things. First, we must shift the mindset, and second, we must have a corresponding shift in behavior. One without the other never works!

6 Essential Steps to Career Breakthrough: Navigating Through Change Successfully

There are so many people today in dramatic career and life transition, and also thousands of coaches and consultants offering help. I’ve discovered, however, that recommending simple, straightforward tactics and strategies does not work unless there has been a true breakthrough in the individual’s thinking and behavior that allows them to become unstuck, and to embrace new possibilities where constraints and limitations were seen before. What do you need to do to create your own breakthrough, and make your goals and visions in life and work a reality? Here are 6 essential steps to breakthrough:

Breakdown Breakthrough

Overcoming the 12 hidden crises of working women Are you a professional woman longing for a radical change? You are not alone. According to my research—a yearlong national study in partnership with the Esteemed Woman Foundation—seven out of 10 women today, particularly those in their middle years, say they are facing a major turning point in their professional lives. After devoting years to building successful careers, they feel that their professional lives and identities no longer work. As a result, most are facing at least one of 12 hidden work-life crises, including chronic health problems, financial bondage, and painful losses of the “real me.”

Can You Make a Good Living Being a Life Coach?

Increasing Your Success Isn't As Hard As You Think It Is

As a career coach and researcher of working women’s work-life issues, I’ve embarked on a national research study on Women Succeeding Abundantly, in order to learn first-hand the essential ingredients in thinking, beliefs, choices, and behaviors that create and maintain “knock your socks off success” in women. I want to learn from women who can raise their hands today and say, “Yes! I feel tremendously successful on my terms, and am able to live life joyfully and with great gusto."

Lesson #5: Think For Yourself
“The first thing you should do is throw away that store-bought map and begin to draw your own,” says Dell. “It’s through curiosity and looking at opportunities in new ways that we’ve always mapped our path at Dell.”

Lesson #4: In Order to Get Ahead, You Must Take the Lead
“It's not like you just sit back and eventually it's going to happen,” says Case. “It's going to happen when people make it happen, and you have to kind of have a strategy that is pragmatic at one level, so you can hang in for the long run, but proactive in another level, so you can actually try to accelerate the pace that it's going to take for something to take off.”

Is Your Leadership Characteristics Limiting Your Business Success?

I have worked with stacks of businesses over the years. Often I am asked to name the most important indicator of whether or not a business will succeed or fail – my answer is always “Look at the CEO”. CEO’s and their personal leadership characteristics can make or break a business. A good CEO sets clear direction and boundaries, provides assistance and support to the team and then gets out of the way to let them accomplish what needs to be done. They help unblock roads if needed and provide guideposts along the way – but their management style is such that they do it in a way that creates independence of action rather than dependence.

5.0 Diversification and Growth: Economic Report on Africa 2007

The presentation in the previous chapter has painted a varied picture of the results of Africa’s efforts to diversify its economies. At the same time, regional differences between Africa, Asia and Latin America were compared. The question then becomes why some countries or regions achieved breakthrough in their diversification efforts while others did not? Identifying the determinants of diversification is one part of solving this puzzle. Linking these policy instruments to growth and development outcomes through growth is the other part of the puzzle. This chapter is about fitting both parts of the puzzle together.

4.2 Diversification regimes in Africa: Economic Report on Africa 2007

Analysing the various diversification indices and the structure of the top ten export commodities for selected countries over the last two decades and a half provides some useful insights which can be used to define diversification regimes that characterize Africa. Five diversification regimes can be identified from Africa’s experience (see Ben Hammouda et al. 2006b). These regimes should not be viewed as steps or as a continuum that a country must follow as it moves from a concentrated to a diversified economy. Rather, the regimes are a result of the policy actions that a country has set in place over a given period of time. The particular regime that a country falls into is likely to be the result of a mix among the various diversification determinants.
