Self-Discipline: A Balancing Act
Self-discipline is a balancing act. We are a collection of values, motivations, intentions, fears, potential, abilities, quirks, strengths and stories we tell ourselves. How all of this translates into self-discipline depends upon how aligned we are with our goals and how we balance priorities day to day. The balance you strike is reflective of your personal style of self-regulation. Are you happy with the way you balance your life or do you tend to let things slide a long time before you notice things are out of whack? One thing I notice about people who are content with their ability to regulate themselves is that they are aware of their priorities, they are clear about them, they take responsibility for them, they take time to focus on them and they have a way of balancing competing demands on their time.
I DIDN’T SAY THAT!
It is imperative that we stop and think about the messages, verbal and non-verbal, that we are sending. We think about how we present to others by making sure our personal style, fashion, hair and make-up are sending a clear message about who we are, but often times don’t take the same care and diligence to ensure that our verbal and non-verbal communication are presented to give the same message.
Hold On To Your Plan -- “Loosely”
You have to have a DEFINITE plan, a DEFINITE purpose and take DEFINITE action to get your results. So why am I talking about holding on to your plan "loosely"? That is exactly what I am saying without detracting from the importance of planning, purpose and action.

The Image necessary for the Entrepreneur
Your clothes say so much about you. What you wear can tell people “I am confident,” “I am successful,” and even, “I am happy with who I am.” And who doesn't love the feeling of putting on an amazing outfit and leaving the house knowing you’re looking as good as you feel? Everyone at some time in their lives finds themselves in a rut; you may feel that your own personal style is out of date, dowdy, boring or just doesn’t reflect who you want to be! You want to make the most of yourself and be the best you can be every day but don’t know where to start.

Ghosting On the Job; How to Capture Someone Else’s Style in Writing
When you take a job at a company, whether you’re hired as a writer or not, being asked to write a memo or some other kind of document for someone that you work with is pretty common. Perhaps the person who's asked you to do the writing is busy or perhaps you know a bit more about the subject than they do—either way, ghostwriting requires being able to capture the “author’s” personal style on the page.

Selling Effectively - The Buyer Blending System
Have you ever tried to sell a client on your property and had difficulty establishing a rapport? Have you ever emphasized something you thought important and your client responded blankly? Do you find some clients make slower (or faster) decisions than you think appropriate? Answering yes to any of these questions means that you have run across a client whose buying style is different from your selling style. To be more successful you need to learn to adapt your selling style to fit your client's buying style. By "reading" your client's behavioral style and appealing to that person in his or her terms, you can actually increase your sales dramatically.
What's Your Money Style?
We all have a different style when it comes to our relationship with money. I'm not talking about your fears or stories about money. Your fears are a whole other box of worms. When I refer to style, I mean how you would relate to money if you had never been influenced by another persons style or fears.
Managing Your Style
Many of us have taken the Myers Briggs Type Indicator and also the DiSC Profile. We have sat in seminars or corporate training sessions designed to help us understand our "style" and how our "type" relates to the rest of the world. These insights are helpful at understanding ourselves and how we can improve relations with other people. I believe style needs to be considered more as a dynamic process - not static. For that we should think about the possibility of actively managing our style.

Using Influence to Gain Commitment: Are Men and Women Really That Different?
Do men and women lead differently in the workplace? Based on much of the research, the short answer is “yes.” Although the differences often align with the stereotype that women lead with a more interpersonal style and men with a more task-oriented style, it appears that gender does play a role in leadership style and preferences.

Do you have difficult clients or are they just different?
Style adaptability is where a person can read another person’s preferred communication style and adjusts their own communication style to that of the other person, thus making shared communication and understanding easier. It is imperative to the principle of exchange and critical to any sales role, yet it is often one of the most poorly executed skills. Time after time we come across teams of sales people who have no conscious idea about how to adapt their style to that of another. Instead when they come across differences, communication usually breaks down and they will speak about the other using derogatory terms such as calling them an idiot, or moron, etc. Sound familiar?
