Forgiveness: The Intelligent Choice
| |
| To forgive someone is to waive our right to resentment, anger or other negative reaction to something they have done that justifies our response. This is not about condoning or excusing their actions, but about intentionally deciding to let go of a sense of offense at snubs, ego scuffs, disappointments and other garden variety occurrences that pull our strings. Making forgiveness a part of our operating system is a key aspect of emotional intelligence: it is taking ownership of our own emotional reactions. This article provides 7 useful tips for practicing forgiveness. |

Make sure your football coaching mentally prepares you for the second half!
| |
| Neuro-Linguistic Programming (NLP) is the process of creating models of excellence. Modelling is the complex activity of capturing in a learnable transferable code the differences that make a difference between an excellent performer and an average performer, between an excellent athlete and an average one, a person who is motivated to get the best out of themselves in training and one who is not. NLP, then, is the process of identifying, coding and transferring precisely those differences in a learnable form to the interested participants and companies to allow significant upgrading of their performance to levels of excellence.
Results in sport depend crucially on your ability to use your mind effectively. Many elite athletes say the mental aspects of sport make the difference between being a champion or not. |

The Big Mistakes in Goal Setting
| |
| The way most of us were taught to set goals could very well be the set up for disappointment. We've always been told in business seminars to write S.M.A.R.T goals. There are different versions of the acronym below but mostly you'll see it like this:
Specific
Measurable
Attainable
Risky, Realistic or Relevant (depending on who's teaching)
Timely
To all of the above I say...rubbish! |

Get Clues From Nature on Mastering Change
| |
| During this time of recession hibernation it is a perfect time to reflect and start fresh. It is the natural thing to do. Unlike the quarterly months of the seasons, the recession hibernation season is going to take longer. However, that doesn’t mean you stop planting seeds for a new future. For many what to plant is a mystery. What was planted in the past no longer bears fruit. One thing to bear in mind when planting is to rotate your strengths instead of relying on past performance and production much like a farmer rotates his crops to enrich the soil. |

Social Emotional Intelligence in Leadership
| |
| Leaders and entire organizations have discovered that success in the workplace has significantly less to do with intelligence or core job competencies and more to do with emotional and behavioral intelligence. The best technicians and the most brilliant team members will often end up with the highest degree of dysfunction when their emotional intelligence is very low. The fattest human resource files have very little to do with job knowledge and generally, have a great deal to do with poor behavioral adaptation and emotional intelligence. |

EMOTIONAL INTELLIGENCE
| |
| Emotional Intelligence is the number one predictor of professional success and personal excellence!
Only part of our success in life can be attributed to intelligence. Other qualities: trust, integrity, authenticity, creativity, honesty, presence and resilience, are at least as important. These 'other intelligences' are collectively described as Emotional Intelligence.
Unlike intelligence, the good news is that EQ can be learned or developed; it's not something you are stuck with. We can develop in ways that can improve our relationships, our workplaces, our parenting, and our classrooms.
We could turn society on its ear if we learned to recognize our emotions and control our reactions; if we combined our thinking with our feelings; if we learned to channel our flow of feelings into creative expression, an expression of love. |

Presentation to the seven dwarfs
| |
| Every member of your audience is different. You can’t treat them the same and expect the same reaction from all of them.
You must be prepared to connect on different levels and receive different reactions to your presentation.
Consider this challenge. Imagine that you are presenting to the seven dwarfs. You might be tempted to think that they are all the same because they are all dwarfs and all working in the same industry. Think again.
Consider these possible very different reactions to your presentation. |

The Seventh Commandment of Leadership-Self Management and Relationship Power
| |
| The most difficult person that you will manage in your leadership career is you.
That is a very hard statement to get your hands around and grasp but managing yourself is a very challenging task. Without good self-management, the delicate balance between leader and follower is jeopardized. You can loose credibility. You can damage relationships. You can completely become irrelevant.
First, a little background on self management. Self management is half of the science of emotional intelligence. Emotional intelligence tells us that eighty percent of our reactions, responses and projections are driven by emotion and not by logic or processed thought. |

GIVING UP ON BEING PERFECT (Letting Go To Become Yourself)
| |
| A more accurate way of saying; “giving up on being perfect,” would be to say; “what do we have to do before we will accept ourselves?”
The picture each of us has about him or herself is a portrait based largely on information provided to us by our social experiences. We are almost constantly adding information from our environment about the effects of our attitudes and behaviour on others and their reactions to us. Such social reactions form the basis for our feelings about other people and help us develop our view of what each of us is like as a person. For many years psychologists have been interested in the role of the self-image in personality development. How much and how well we accept what we see as our “self,” is an important part of our emotional health. |

Stress And Personal Mastery

| Stress is an emotional and physical response that we show towards different pressures from the workplace, school and other institutions. Stress reactions would include inability to focus, concentrate, headache and fast heartbeat. Almost everybody develops stress, but how we deal with it is important. Personal mastery is something that can be done to deal with stress. |
