Don’t Just Move. Review Too.
Moving into new office space suggests something has changed for the company. As well as updating your stationery, signage, etc. now is the time to review how you market yourself. Does your logo still make you proud? Is the website effective? Have your client needs changed? Have you added new services, expanded to another region or country? These are just some of the questions that need to be addressed when moving location. Think about what you want to accomplish over the next year and evaluate your existing marketing tools against your stated goals, target audience and in light of company changes.

An Organized Environment
Having an organized environment really helps adults with ADHD feel calm, focused and able to function at their peak. However, having ADHD also means achieving and maintaining an organized environment is really hard. One of the biggest challenges is the accumulation of clutter. In my book, Untapped Brilliance, I have a chapter about achieving a clean, tidy and organized environment and I am always interested to learn more about this subject so I can in turn pass the information on to my clients. It was with fascination that I read organization guru Julie Morgenstern’s book SHED Your Stuff, Change Your Life: A Four-Step Guide to Getting Unstuck.

No - Your Number 1 Tool to Succeed
Did you know that the word NO is the most important word in the English language for people who are determined to succeed? We did several workshops on living your natural genius for larger corporations over the past few years. Every participant was asked for his or her opinion of the words YES and NO. The results weren’t very surprising. Most people have positive associations with the word YES and negative associations with the word NO. This is a very common perception, but does it really represent the truth? If you ask me, NO it does not. The ability to say NO to discouragement, distraction and other negative influences is essential for being successful, especially for smart people.

Finding the Flow
Racing cars has long been a passion of mine. I love high-performance cars like I love high performance people – riding the edge, where life is focused, energized and precise. Over the years, I’ve realized that days at the race track can be perfect opportunities to discover fundamental rules of high personal performance, in any realm. A few months back, I had a really rough day on the track. I was fighting the car and making a lot of mistakes. Instead of feeling inspired and skilled, I went home tired and frustrated. What was going on? Had I lost my passion? Was it time to get my thrills another way? I gave it serious consideration, feeling a lot like my clients who had lost the passion for their business.
