ARTArticleLeading Yourself Out of RecessionI simply don't know how many clients have said to me, over the last few months, that they crave leadership. The current global economic has found national and international leaders wanting. Governments have often scrambled, like headless chickens, to implement sticky-plaster solutions to a mess which was partly of their own making.ARTArticleLearning How to Control YourselfNormal people are out of control. This is not an observation, a theory or an opinion. This is a statement of scientific fact. Decades of research, all the way back to 1936, prove conclusively that the normal person is not in control of themselves, rather they are controlled by their subconscious mind. And, because all this happens automatically, there is, in fact, no real control at all being exerted in the ordinary behaviour of everyday life. Reflect on this for a few moments.ARTArticleLearning to Love the WeedsTuning Out the Outer Criticr In my work with hundreds of men and women who are choosing greater success in designing their future, one major challenge they often experience, is listening to, and being affected by the voice and opinions of others. Taking in the criticism of others and being affected for a short while is one thing; it is quite another thing when it stops you from living your authentic life.ARTArticleLearning Unconditional AcceptanceAccept me as I am; whatever my faults may be, my weaknesses and my strengths. Like me and love me unconditionally. The old is the old, change has taken place, and time has put a divider in between friends. Learn to look through new eyes, a new perspective, and with new hope. Look through imperfections; as life, people and things are not perfect. When you learn unconditional acceptance, you accept all, universally.ARTArticleLessons From Early Team-BuildingLessons From Early Team-Building Byr Bill Cottringer “The ratio of We’s to I’s is the best indicator of the development of a team. ~Lewis B. Ergen.ARTArticleLet It BeMaking certain we get up early to do our daily affirmation work, sometimes taking it up even hourly, doing visualizations over and over again, resetting our mindsets, setting goals, making promises, fighting with ourselves to get "there" wherever there is, worrying about having too many negative thoughts, being angry, saving face by making believe we aren't angry when we are, attempting to attract our success in by vibrating in just the right frequencies, getting frustrated that it's taking too long, that, without really knowing just how long it's supposed to take anyway, comparing ourselve ARTArticleLet Those You Love Know That You Love Them, TodayHere we are on the edge of civilized Panamá, pretty doggone close to Tocumen International Airport, the airport that services Panamá. And inside these lot lines the grief, the well wishing, is serious. Rosendo Moreno, father of the clan, aged 74, passed away a few days ago. And the family is gathered, we’re getting ready to go to the final service. Friends are gathering, well-wishers, those who want to encourage them and keep from being alone. And outside this lot line life goes on as normal.ARTArticleLet’s Face It . . . Worrying is a Waste of Time and MoneyWhat people worry about Worriers can find and create all sorts of things to worry about. People worry about: The Economy Their Health Their Loved onesr Their Marriage Making House Payments Losing a Job Gaining weight The list goes on and on. Habitual worry creates diseases, divorces and disinterest in life. Worry is not to be taken lightly.ARTArticleLet’s Talk the TalkAmericans were crying out for change in 2008 when President Obama’s campaign was offering precisely that. For the first time in history a presidential campaign relied heavily on social media where the words of change were taken down to the people on the street, who accessed it with relish. Citizens understood what was on offer. They got excited and were enthusiastic about becoming part of the vehicle that mobilized or at least promised this change.ARTArticleLetting Our Success Just HappenThe title seems almost contradictory, doesn't it? An article on how to let success just happen? How do we let success happen? How does this work? Especially when we have been thoroughly indoctrinated into having to work, stress out, and make things happen, or they just won't happen, now will they? Let me explain. Yes, there are many, many, things to do on the road of success. And one of those things might just be to let it happen! A success that can only be defined by you, for you, and you alone.ARTArticleLife Change: It’s Happening All the TimeThe vast majority of people with whom I work talk about life change, as if it was something to be desired, something out of the ordinary, something that only happens when we arrive at major crossroads in our otherwise mundane lives. How little we know about the reality of life! Viewed in its most basic building blocks – cells, molecules, atoms, nuclei, superstrings – you life is in a constant state of change. Indeed, the only thing that is certain about your life is that it is changing all of the time.ARTArticleLife Changes UsThis article is about releasing and forgiving. If someone has hurt or upset you, take time to reflect on what might have happened in their life to change them. Things are not always as they seem. Occasionally we are broken so we can be mended the right way. Feeling our own heartbreak allows us to sympathize with others. When we are born, our innocence and wonder exudes from us. There are no doubts, no fears, and life is full of wonder.r ARTArticleLife Coaching: Answers to Common QuestionsWhy would I need a coach for my life? If you’re feeling stuck, or you have big dreams, or you feel dissatisfied with your current life, you might want a partner to help you move forward. Maybe you’re ready to start the next chapter in your life, but you’re not quite sure how to get there. Life coaching might be for you.ARTArticleLIFE IS A WORK IN PROGRESSLife is a work in progress that never is complete. We learn a different lesson from each experience we meet. We learn the joy of living-of what a heart is for. We learn that through our struggles we are stronger than before. We learn the thrill of victory-the pain of a defeat. We learn to win the battle we must first learn to compete. We learn from our reactions to the things we can’t control-there are times we should hang in there and times we should let go. And if we keep on learning-if the truth we try to find- The wisdom of the ages teaches-r ARTArticleLife Lessons: RecognitionWe all have the ability to recognize – someone we already know, a difficult situation when we see one, an opportunity that’s staring us in the face or a problem that needs our attention. However, our psychological ability to recognise is just as much a curse as it is a blessing. We take in raw data through our body’s five senses – a psychologist would term this “bottom up” data – through the process of cognition. At this point, the data, of itself is meaningless – we need to interpret it. This is done by adding our “stored knowledge” or “top down information” to the ARTArticleLife Success Lessons From 15 Orison Swett Marden Quotes1. All who have accomplished great things have had a great aim, have fixed their gaze on a goal which was high, one which sometimes seemed impossible. This is something I often repeat, however I cannot stress highly enough the need to know what you want, and to define a singular, overriding goal for your life. We do not need to know how we will accomplish that, we just need to be mindful that the things we do, move forward this singular purpose. 2.ARTArticleLive, Love & LaughLive, Love & Laugh Byr Bill Cottringer “When done correctly by individuals, living, loving and laughing greatly improve the quality of life for humanity.” ~The author. The more you do these three things, the more successful and happier you and others will be. But first you have to translate the ideas and meanings of these things into actions that get results. Here are some suggestions on how to do that. LIVE Living means letting go and trusting life to take you where the whole flow is going in the long run.ARTArticleLiving DangerouslyAre you living dangerously? If you're "normal" and research indicates that at least 96% of us are, then, in fact, you're not really living at all - you're simply existing. What passes for your life is in fact an ongoing automatic treadmill of habitual, reactive self-fulfilling prophecies. You see, years of psychological research proves that normal people devote only around 1% of their mental capacity to living in and experiencing the only time and place you can be - here and now.ARTArticleLiving the DreamOne of my clients, a well-known solicitor, recently introduced me to her partners by saying “Willie is living the dream!” She was referring to my living in high the French Alps, where myself and my wife moved five years ago with our three children – a better quality of life, skiing in winter, boating in summer, food, wine, the list is endless. But “living the dream” has nothing to do with location, it’s simply a state of mind. It’s the clear state of mind in which you find yourself every so often – when you’re “all there”, when so much gets done with such little effo ARTArticleLiving Your Dreams with a Life CoachThere seems to be a lot of confusion about what a life coach is and what a life coach does. In this blog post I'd like to clear up some misconceptions about what life coaching is and what a life coach does. If you're wondering where can I find a life coach, I'll address this at the end. Life Coach?ARTArticleLiving Your Purpose and Mission – A Three Step PlanAre you living your purpose? Do you know your mission? “What am I here for? What is my purpose, in this lifetime?” You may be asking yourself these questions. More and more people are these days. There have been hundreds of books written on this important and debatable subject. Suppose I told you that your purpose on this planet was to serve other people? What does that mean to you? How does that make you feel? Does it bring up more questions in your mind? Does it make you nervous?ARTArticleLooking for LoveI Googled "dating" this morning - Google came up with 268m results. Whether it's online dating, speed dating, lunch dating or singles holidays, events for singles... actually I Google gave me even more results for singles - 288m. Lots of people are looking for something that's missing in their lives - whether it's companionship, friendship or love. But there's a problem. Almost everyone who's out there "looking for love" is normal.ARTArticleLove and HappinessWith each new day, life is full of all kinds of new possibilities. With each breath taken, it brings new life for that moment. During hard times and struggle, it brings about a new strength and understanding. Love and happiness are easy to attain for some. As in love, there are many types of love. Some can attain it easily while others struggle to give and receive it. Happiness works the same way. You choose who and how you love, you choose what brings you happiness. You seek out what you choose to feel at that moment.r ARTArticleLove Vs. In LoveLove is so many things! By the actual definition of love it ranges from a sexual attraction or affection for someone all the way to being “in love.” There is a lot of couples that love one another but are not in love with one another and don’t know it yet.ARTArticleLove, Love, LoveThere's nothing you can do that can't be done. Nothing you can sing that can't be sung. Nothing you can say but you can learn how to play the gamer It's easy. There's nothing you can make that can't be made. No one you can save that can't be saved. Nothing you can do but you can learn how to be in timer It's easy. All you need is lover There's nothing you can know that isn't known. Nothing you can see that isn't shown. Nowhere you can be that isn't where you're meant to be. It's easy. All you need is love The Beatles (John Lennon/Paul McCartney), from All You Need is Love (edited)ARTArticleMagic Spells - What makes one Spell more powerful than another?Is it that one person is better at it than some-one else? Apart from a personal skill or native flair, is the amount of practice and experience, which makes one person more capable to cast more potent spells, over another one. A major portion of that experience is mirrored in the quantity of emotional energy and individual vitality, that a spell caster is able to project into the Universe during the spell casting. The spell needs to be energized with stacks of individual energy, but that energy can only be transported on a back of intense passion.ARTArticleMake Your Marketing Strategies Easier With S.Y.S.T.E.M.S.The best marketing ideas or business development strategies won’t help you grow your business if they don’t get executed consistently. The most common marketing problem I find happening with small business owners is that the business development plan was just not consistently implemented. The biggest reason why entrepreneurs struggle with execution is largely because the marketing strategies were not systematized. A great definition of S.Y.S.T.E.M.S. is - Save - Your - Self - Time - Energy - Money and - Sanity! How do you systematize your marketing strategy?ARTArticleMaking Relationships Less DifficultMaking Relationships Less Difficult Byr Bill Cottringer “Consider how hard it is to change yourself and you'll understand what little chance you have in trying to change others.” ~Anonymous.ARTArticleMaking The Distinction Between Blame And ResponsibilityThere is a distinction between blaming ourselves for the conditions of our lives, and instead, being responsible for everything in our lives, that when made, makes all the difference in the world. A difference that shows up in our lives as how we feel about just about everything. The sticky part of this distinction, the part that keeps most people stuck not making it, is that in our thinking, blame and responsibility customarily refer to the same circumstance.ARTArticleMaking the Leap from Corporate to EntrepreneurshipAt the end of June 2003, I chose to leave a very secure job in banking to start over as an executive coach. Although I’d been in business for myself prior to joining the bank, it had been almost five years. During my time there, I had the privilege of working with a great team that cared deeply for their clients and believed in the direction we were heading. But it wasn’t enough for me, and I knew it was time to become a full-time executive coach.
