This Holiday Season give a gift to yourself and your family that will relieve all the stress and tension. Stop fighting and flip it. Seriously we mean flip it. First you smile. Second you take a deep breath. Third you use your powers of creativity to turn the situation around. Where attention goes energy flows, if your attention is on the positive it's only going to get better.
All of our thoughts and actions manifest our present time experiences once you know this it makes it easy to realize that you are in control and truly do have the power to flip every situation to a happier thought allowing you to magnetize more positive results and occurrences. If you are invested in finding fault you will keep finding fault, so flip it for good.
Your guests are late. You feel the panic rise as you worry about your holiday meal. Candles are burning. You get a little annoyed, which leads to tension, which leads to unhappiness. Stop right there. Smile. Take a deep breath. Find the pivot point that turns the negative into a positive, that flips it for good. Think to yourself: I have time to have a glass of wine or a cup of tea. Time to remember that I invited them here from the heart not the kitchen. I can relax as I finish the last minute preparations and voilà , I'm “off the hook.”
My sister keeps using my razor. This is not the first time so I immediately get upset. Stop. Breath. Flip it! Now I know a funny stocking stuffer gift.
When our mom and grandma's cancer metastasized to her brain requiring her to live with us full time we opened our home knowing it would bring new experiences: changing diapers, preparing meals, wheel chair maneuvering, loss of an income to provide care. A natural focus could be on the negative. Instead we stopped. Took a deep breath. Flipped it for good. The sacrifices were seen as gifts given to somebody we loved rather than a burden. This perspective allowed for a light hearted attitude and plenty of laughter as we adjusted to the situation.
Flip it reminds you that you choose the thoughts, the expression of the emotions. You choose the energy you send. It doesn't solve the problem it just opens a new window to allow in fresh air. Sometimes you can only control you thoughts and how you respond to the feelings. Flip it puts the focus back on a beneficial outcome, igniting the power of heart centered aligned energy.
This holiday instead of focusing on the stress, money, work, travel... Smile. Take a deep breath. Find the pivot point so you can flip it. The moment of alchemy changing the negative to positive. The transitional moment. The little grain of hope. Flip it for good.

A Communication Lesson From Jerry Seinfeld
Jerry Seinfeld is one of the most recognized comedians in the world. In the early 90s it was Jerry’s comedy that spearheaded the popularity of observational humor. Here are a few of his funny observations: • According to most studies, people’s number one fear is public speaking. Number two is death. Death is number two. Does that sound right? This means to the average person, if you go to a funeral, you’re better off in the casket than doing the eulogy. • I was the best man at the wedding. If I’m the best man, why is she marrying him?

Influence Comes Down To The Three C's
Have you ever wondered what makes someone influential? Why did people follow Gandhi? Or Martin Luther King Jr.? What makes leaders, entrepreneurs, politicians or salespeople influential? These are the questions I have asked myself for years. In my career I have had a chance to work with and share the stage with some of the greatest influencers in the world and I’ve studied them. I’ve watched their way of being, their interactions, the way they treat people and I’ve tried to understand this elusive quality we call influence.

What Country Music Taught Me About Public Speaking
When I was 16 years old, I had a girlfriend who slowly but surely converted me to country music. It started with Garth Brooks’ Standing Outside The Fire. Then it was Tim McGraw, Toby Keith and pretty soon I was hooked. Country music songs are great because they have much more of a story to them than most other genres of music. (I know what the haters are thinking – “my dog died, my wife left me, etc…) And within the stories of country music songs there is an incredible lesson for anyone who speaks to groups or gives presentations.
