ARTArticleThe Trap of MediocrityHave you ever found yourself doing the same things day after day and you begin to wonder, “Is this all there is to my life?” If you remember the movie, Groundhog Day, you get the picture. Also known as living in the comfort zone, this place can be seductive for all of us. We are often very comfortable, of course and that can have us reacting and responding to our partners in automatic, habitual ways. This is far from sexy! We are meant to live in our zone of genius and when the comfort zone gets boring and downright uncomfortable that is actually a time for celebration.ARTArticleThe Truth about Aging GracefullyThe Truth about Aging Gracefully Baby boomers long ago hit the first major speed bump on their collective path: They’re aging and there’s nothing they can do to stop it. Yes, we can use more make-up, hair dye and alpha-hydroxy creams. Yes, plastic surgeons and health related industries are making millions off of the insecurity of this age group. But whether or not we use any or all of the above products and services,we will get older. In another culture or time period in history, aging wasn’t a problem. Why? Because respect for someone grew with age. This isn’t true today.ARTArticleThe Ultimate ForerunnerAs the plot thickens in Game of Thrones season after seaso I wonder who the eventual victor will be. While there seemed to be obvious winners when I first started watching the series, they didn't turn out to be the victors. If anything they were unexpectedly slain never to return to the series again. That is part of the intrigue as it keeps me wondering what unexpected thing will happen again.ARTArticleThe Ultimate Gift…Life!From that very first time that I went into a DMV, I knew that I wanted to be an organ donor. There was a little box that you had to mark for it to appear on your license. Reflecting back on it now, that little box seemed to be so trivial at the time, but it is so important.r ARTArticleThe Ultimate WinnersSharon Osbo e once said on the Oprah Winfrey show that she preferred to be a beautiful face alighting from an old car rather than a wrinkled woman in a posh one. The US and UK television personality and wife of rock star Ozzy Osbo e was talking about society's obsession with physical looks. She could not, and neither could Oprah, understand people's willingness to do anything to maintain their looks and physique, often times at the expense of their mental health.ARTArticleThe Value of CoachingI'm a talk show radio host-that's a piece of information. The question today pertains to this: “Why would anybody pay for a coach?” Well, I do want to share with you that I'm really a rather recent talk show host. I have had a show before that was broadcast on the radio, and I have been on several hundreds of interviews. But being a talk show radio host, having the whole show under my care and production, has given me a whole new insight.ARTArticleThe War Stories It Takes To Get To These Glorious DaysI’m celebrating today, and I figuratively invite you to lift a glass of champagne with me. I just put the last nail into the project, El Nuevo Piense y Hágase Rico, the Spanish translation of The NEW Think And Grow Rich. I dispatched the translated autoresponder series off to my webmasters and asked them to go ahead and insert them. And later, as I was reflecting on this, I thought…”Wow, this whole thing looks so easy, but this is a real project. It took a loooot of time.”ARTArticleThe Waste of WorryHave you ever woken in the midst of a beautiful night’s sleep and just been drifting off again when some inane silly little thought flits across your mind? And another linked thought comes to join in and soon you find yourself off on a train of thought that takes you to all the places that you really don’t want to go. So many people, myself included, talk of the ridiculous and outrageous thoughts that don’t only keep you awake at four o’clock in the morning – they scare the living daylights out of you.ARTArticleThere Is No Quick & Easy One-Size Fits All Success Prescription. So Why Do You Keep Looking?There Is No Quick & Easy One-Size Fits All Success Prescription. So Why Do You Keep Looking? Byr Bill Cottringer Do not go where the path may lead, go instead where there is no path and leave a trail.rn~Ralph Waldo Emerson.ARTArticleThinking Your Way to SuccessThinking Your Way to Success Byr Bill Cottringer “I want to know all God’s thoughts; all the rest are just details.” ~Albert Einstein.ARTArticleThis Meeting Sux! 12 Acts of Courage to Change Meetings for GoodLets face it, most meetings being held right now, and the thousands more scheduled for tomorrow, will be boring as hell and a poor use of time. Why? Because they’re not effectively lead. Your average meeting leader and participant alike thinks it’s easy to hold a stupid meeting. They’re absolutely right. It's easy to hold a "stupid" meeting. Unfortunately, that's the way most of them turn out. And it's because few of us see the importance of "meeting process." We are masters of production, but we tend to neglect "how" we get things done. This has got to change.ARTArticleThis Priceless Breath is Personal TransformationThink of each breath. In any given moment, as long as we are living, we are in the state of either exhaling or inhaling; natural breathing occurs without any sticks, stitches or catches. Now think for a moment about the point of motion in between the two phases of breath, the point after you are done inhaling and begin to exhale, or the point when you are finished exhaling and begin to inhale. Imagine that the breath itself were visible, and that you could see how it swirls as it is brought into the lungs. Do you see how that activity never ceases?ARTArticleTHREE GOOD RELATIONSHIPS TO HAVETHREE GOOD RELATIONSHIPS TO HAVE Byr Bill Cottringer “We've got this gift of love, but love is like a precious plant. You can't just accept it and leave it in the cupboard or just think it's going to get on by itself. You've got to keep watering it. You've got to really look after it and nurture it.” ~John Lennon.ARTArticleThree Questions to Answer in Measuring the Success of Your RelationshipThree Questions to Answer in Measuring the Success of Your Relationship Byr Bill Cottringer “Don't marry the person you think you can live with; marry only the individual you think you can't live without.” ~James Dobson.ARTArticleTIME FOR A CHANGE – FINDING THE RIGHT CAREERIn her new book, Own Your Life, 7 Essential Steps to Independence, author, speaker and lawyer Suzanne B. Quinn guides the reader through the seven essential steps to personal and financial security and independence. This article is an excerpt from her book, comprising one of the seven steps. TIME FOR A CHANGE – FINDING THE RIGHT CAREER Imagine how different your life would be if you looked forward to work. You were excited to get up in the morning, eager to start your day because you really enjoyed what you do. Doesn’t sound possible?ARTArticleTime Management: Focus on Only What is ImportantDo you have enough time to do all the things that you really should be doing today? Or, like most people, do you find yourself labouring under a mountain of “to dos”, never getting through it and then find that you simply haven’t done some of the things that you really wanted to or should have done? Are you a slave to others’ demands at work? Are you trying to juggle job and family responsibilities and finding that you’re getting neither done properly? Are you one of these people who has to take home work at the weekend to “catch up”?ARTArticleTips for CEOs - How to Resolve Conflicts in a TeamAs the CEO, do you at times find yourself spending a critical portion of your productive hours in resolving conflicts among your team members? In other words, the time which could have been invested in more result-oriented jobs is spent on the rather unproductive and at times even frustrating job of resolving conflict.ARTArticleTips On Enlightenment Here!TB Wright I once asked a woman who was giving tips on "How to become enlightened" not as a flip way of sassing her, but as a legitimate question. "How can you give advice in any way whatsoever, on being enlightened, when you are not?" She answered by saying that she could certainly know of the existence of something, without being that. I agreed with her. I knew of the sun, without being the sun, but I wasn't saying I was on the path to become the sun now, was I? So the question still remained.ARTArticleTips to help you handle Holiday StressOn top of your regular deadlines, traffic, decisions and relationships, you now have more with holiday deadlines, gifts to buy, events to attend, shopping, traffic and more people who are getting on your nerves....... Sometimes all you need is a reminder, a quick tip you can do to relieve stress, other times you need a coach or counselor when the stress is more than you can handle by yourself. These 10 items are quick reminders of easy things you can do now, to shift your stress energy and go back to enjoying your holiday time.ARTArticleTIT 4 TAT: The Basic Backdrop of Life.TIT 4 TAT: The Basic Backdrop of Life. By Bill Cottringer “Reputation is not of enough value to sacrifice character for it.” Miss Clark. All of life, upon due reflection, seems to be a variation of one very basic rule commonly known as—Tit for Tat (literally blow for blow). This a priori “contract” asks for a reasonable exchange and balance to resolve conflicts in three main areas of life: • Conflicts within yourself (self-growth). • Conflicts between you and others (relationship growth). • Conflicts between all of us and life itself (humanity growth).ARTArticleTo be a Success – Just Let GoIf you want to achieve effortless happiness and success, you’re going to have to let go. You’re going to have to let go of your normal ideas of success, you’re going to have to let go of your attachments to the things that you want that, only when you get them will you feel successful. Above all, you’re going to have to let go of who you think you are. Our normal minds are full of preconceived notions about who we are and what it takes to be unconditionally successful. First of all, we are not who we think we are. I’ve heard many people say that they love their personality.ARTArticleTo Just BeTo just be means that you appreciate the moment for what it is. What does it mean to just be? It means to surrender. You have to learn how to just let go and surrender the moment for whatever it is meant to be. We are so busy doing things that it is hard to surrender. When you surrender you acknowledge that you cannot control everything. By surrendering you are acknowledging your smallness. There is this great big world with billions of people, other animals, and other planets. You realize that you are but a speck on this great thing we call earth.r ARTArticleTop 25 Creativity QuotationsWhat is creativity? Use these quotes from famous people to think about what it means to be creative. 1. "Creativity is the infinite capacity that resides within you. It involves combining information with your life experiences." - Wayne Lotherington 2. "Creativity is not in the execution, but in the exploration." - John Pearson 3. "I have always felt that the highest human expression comes in our creative endeavors, those which draw upon all of our powers of imagination, intelligence, and understanding." - Armand Hammer ARTArticleTop Ten Happiness RobbersTop Ten Happiness Robbers Byr Bill Cottringer “You can never make another person happy, only unhappy. ~The author. Are you happy enough with your happiness bank account balance? Knowing that a happiness bank account balance can never be high enough, here are a few bank robbers you will want to avoid at all costs: 1. Beliefs. Wrong, irrational or selfish beliefs are perpetual robbers of the happiness bank. You often aren’t even aware of what “wrong” beliefs you have that may be withdrawing happiness from your account when you think they are making deposits.ARTArticleTraining the Subconscious Mind to Act in Absolute TimeIt is a generally universal and common belief that there is no time or space plane existing in metaphysical or cosmic consciousness dimensions. Finite life uses the concepts of time and space as personal reference points to deal with changes that revolve around and assist in the resolve of one's life experiences. Thought exists merely as fact, whether or not manifestation occurs on the physical plane: that being the province and certitude of the individual thinker in finite form.ARTArticleTranscendence and SuccessIs success contrary to spiritual development? I just had a radio show on this topic and the answer is: obviously not! If you think about about it, what is success?ARTArticleTransformational Leadership: A Real Change Leader Leads ChangeA real change leader is courageous in dealing with personal growth - changing one's self. Let's be clear here; personal growth is not about 'fixing yourself'. It is about learning and growing to reach more of your true potential. A leader will need to acknowledge her or his fear and keep moving forward anyway… leading the way. This is simple, yet not easy - at first. Facing change may not be without doubt or uneasiness; still, the more one comes from a place of confidence and authenticity, the more likely courage will be the response instead of denial.ARTArticleTreat The Next Step Like It’s ImportantDuring a recent teleconference, I was asked, "Once you've taken the step of acquiring The NEW Think and Grow Rich, what's the next step? What's the best way to begin to implement the principles that you and Napoleon Hill teach in the book The NEW Think and Grow Rich?" Well, I advised them to read that book dozens and dozens of times-to read it 'til you catch on fire. The day that you catch yourself on fire-because it has to be done by you-your life will change immensely for the better. Forever. Permanently. It's a long-term gig you're involved in. Treat it like it's important.ARTArticleTreble Your Income? Why Not Get Your Priorities Right?!From time to time I take a look at what "competitor" websites are offering in the so-called personal development or self-help sector. After all, we all need to know what we're up against - and we all need to put bread on the table. But how much bread should that be? Because, what I've found is that many websites promise that you'll treble your income in weeks - or that your income will "explode". Most of the websites I look at are focused on money - and making more of it.ARTArticleTrust & TimeI have just began teaching Reiki in Mysteries, which I am so happy about as since I shut my shop in London & moved to cornwall, teaching Reiki has been rather difficult. I got an email the other week asking if there was any spaces left on the next Reiki course.
