As you know "good enough" is relative so how could you ever make this determination as a way to being? It is so connected to "doing" that you will always have something else to, well, do. Basing your confidence and self-esteem on what you accomplish, your job title or how much money you make is a bottomless pit - here today, gone tomorrow.ARTArticleAre You Living or Just Existing?Ever just go through the day and feel as if you can’t change your life for the better? Everything has been decided for you and you have no choices in what you do, wear or say? Some days can feel like that, but have too many in a row and you just might be drifting aimlessly through life. Then there are those people who get excited when they wake up in the morning.

After the addition was built, the zoo keepers headed home for the night.ARTArticleAre You Smart Enough?Are You Smart Enough? Byr Bill Cottringer “Half of being smart is in knowing what you are dumb about.” ~Solomon Short. I have been an avid researcher of the connection between intelligence and success for several decades now, and am finally ready to release my short list for guaranteed results—How to be smart enough.

So, to become smarter, there are three aspects of intelligence to consider that collectively define smartness: IQ ARTArticleAre You Still Inspired?We all face the moments where we lose inspiration and excitement for what we do. Usually we focus on employee engagement but it affects as much the entrepreneurs, and business owners as the leaders of a team, department or organization. According to a 2015 Gallup study, only 32% of the American Workforce is engaged and globally only 13%. This costs the economy billions. But on a smaller scale, just think of how much is costs YOU as the entrepreneur or leader who is not deeply inspired about what you are doing.ARTArticleAre You Stressed?What is it that is stressing you?

The whining wings tell the poignant story of the fly’s strategy — try harder. But it’s not working. The frenzied effort offers no hope for survival. Ironically, the struggle is part of the trap. It is impossible for the fly to try hard enough to succeed at breaking through the glass. Nevertheless, this little insect has staked its life on reaching its goal through raw effort and determination.ARTArticleAre You Willing to Take the Big Leap for Your Goals?One of the thought-provoking questions Gay Hendricks asks in the beginning of his book is: “Am I willing to feel good and have my life go well all the time?” Gay says: “In my view, saying yes to that question is one of the most courageous actions a human being can take. In the face of so much evidence that life hurts and is fraught with adversity on all fronts, having a willingness to feel good and have life go well all the time is a genuinely radical act.”ARTArticleAs a Public Speaker, Can You Hold Your Audience’s Attention ?Even if you consider yourself a confident public speaker, one that has no problem speaking in front of an audience or group the question is can you truly reach them?
