Trash or Treasure: De-cluttering That Preserves The Memories
Do you have a "memory box" filled with treasures such as a corsage from your high school prom, your Girl Scout badge sash, old Valentine's cards, a napkin from your wedding, ticket stubs from your first pro ball game, or your baby's first shoes? While this "stuff" may look like junk to others, to you these mementos represent precious memories, the story of your life - what I call the "family fortune".
Out of the corner of your eye
Juxtaposition matters. And so does surprise.
The Comfort of Memories
Abraham, Martin and John...mmmmmm as the sounds of this song drift out of my computer (my techno skills are improving!!) and sink into my head, I am transported back many years to a dingy room (not that I thought that then), at the back of a pub, my introduction to discos, then I had to be home when everybody else was coming out, I lived in the middle of nowhere (so I thought) and the last bus went at 10pm. Can you imagine saying that to a youngster today!!!!

Do people know what you do?
I was with a business contact of mine the other day and mentioned a project that we were working on for a client of ours. To my surprise he said to me, “I didn’t know you did that!”
Rediscovering the Classroom: How to Make Learning Fun
Studies have shown that people, both adults and children, learn best in different ways, ways that correspond to the ways they see the world. So how do you learn best? It's easy to discover your individualized learning style and change the way you feel about learning something new.
Punching Yourself Until They Give Up
The midlife transition is all about transforming your life from the externally-motivated value system of the adult to the internally- (that means spiritually-) motivated life that characterizes the mature individual. One key factor in this transformation — a factor that is way too often neglected — is doing a moral housecleaning.
Celebrate Every Achievement
In her book My Stroke of Insight, the author and Harvard brain scientist Jill Bolte Taylor documents her remarkable story. At the age of 37 years old, she suffered a stroke and then spent the next eight years making a full recovery. This involved learning to do the basics such as sit up in bed alone again, walk, talk, feed herself, drive, recall her memories, etc. The book is inspirational and also has some amazing pearls of wisdom. One of these pearls is how important it was for her to celebrate EVERY achievement no matter what the size. I found this attitude a wonderful one and would love all adults with ADHD to adopt too. She didn't say, "Oh, you can sit up on your own now, big deal, you could do that when you were one years old." That would have been discouraging after all her mental and physical effort it had taken. It would have als
Seeing the Big Picture
The Fourth of July weekend is a great time to kick back and look around at your family. This is the time of year that most of us stop and see the big picture….the reasons why we work so much; the reasons for putting up with the daily stresses; the reasons for 40-60 hours of labor. It is all part of a bigger picture……it is not the money that we get every other Friday! It is the joy, the memories, the time we get to cherish with our friends and family.

How the Mind Works: Understanding Your Mental Software
The complexities of the mind have left thinkers, scholars and philosophers baffled for a millennia. For the past two hundred years the field of psychology has sought to understand why we are the way we are but reviled little as to how the mind works. The latest advances in psychology, cognitive science and neuro science have lead to new models and a whole new science of mind has emerged. We now know more than ever before about how the mind works. And when you know how the mind works, changing it becomes easy.

A Box Full of Stuff
All of us go through those seemingly insignificant points in life that, in retrospect, are turning points. I remember the day that our family came to the decision that my grandfather could no longer live in his house alone, but would need to move into a retirement center. He was well into his 90s and had called that house his home for over 60 years. It was full of trinkets, mementos, personal treasures, and memories.

A Case for Marketing Experimentation Making Failure Work For You
We all know what success is: it's meeting goals and expectations based on how we define them. But do we learn from success? In most cases no. In fact success establishes the status quo, ingrains conventional wisdom, stifles innovation and creativity, and promotes the repetition of the same methods, technologies, and ideas that have always been used, even when those methods no longer work.

How to develop a Can-Do Attitude
One of our most challenging and often most destructive, habits is our tendency to focus on what we can't do rather than what we can. In NLP (Neuro-Linguistic Programming) this is called Away From language. Like most things we do, it’s a learnt behaviour that’s crept up on us and has been allowed to run unchecked, eating away at our confidence and stopping us from doing the things we want or need to do. The problem is it's also one of the most pernicious behaviours going for stifling our creativity and personal development, the good news though is that like all behaviour, if we learned it, we can also unlearn it. Let me explain…

Small Business Tips: Insuring Your Business Success
Over Easter there was a large fire at Coorparoo in Queensland, where a number of small businesses were burnt out. This is a devastating event for any business, but what made it more so was that a number of the small businesses were not insured. What was the effect? Let me tell you about one small business and the effect this has had on them. This small business was a service business; they were starting to get a brilliant reputation in the industry and had a number of major contracts on the go. They had employed a number of staff to work in the business and things were looking rosy. Insurance was on their to do list, but as things got busier and busier it never seemed to make it to the top of the list. As their information was critical to their business, they regularly backed up all of their computers.

Smart Women Know When to Let Go
This article is about realizing that in order for things to change in our life, we ourselves need to change. A wise mentor told me once, that “change does not always mean success but success always means change.” We need to let go of the things that no longer serve us and create the space for something new. New growth and learning, new relationships, new career. Whatever you want to manifest in your life, you will need to make changes along the way.
Right Now
I often hear the past determines who you are and the future goals we set for ourselves determine what actions we take right now. It has nothing to do with past or future. It all has to do with 'right now'.
Cut yourself some slack
How many of you feel that you have so many different responsibilities in your life, that you cannot possibly make it all work. You may be focusing on work obligations while trying to keep your household up and running. All of this running around creates a feeling of hopelessness. I have seen it countless times with clients that try to do it all with enormous to-do lists, and in the end they feel like a failure. Sometimes I just need to remind them of the larger picture. When all is said and done, do you really think anyone is going to care that your home is spotless? Rather, what they will remember is how they felt in your presence, the memories you shared.
When you FEEL good not just think positive, you attract more good stuff into your life
Use your memories and your fantasies and your dreams and desires to create positive and fabulous feelings. It IS as easy as that! Truly! So how do you MAKE yourself feel good when you have negative thoughts or anxiety or sadness from a lost love or fear of not having money? Well, perpetuating on those thoughts will only attract more sadness, anxiety, lack into your life, so guess what? You don't have a choice if you want to be happy!
