Working on your body is important but I’d like to talk about working on your business. Now that’s a hot topic! Are you doing the work? Are you taking action? 99% of success is showing up. It's time to “get physical” in your business. If you’re a creative right-brain entrepreneur it’s easy to get stuck too long in the thinking and planning phase. You can sit around writing a “to do list”, listing your goals, penciling things in your calendar but if you don’t eventually get into action; you’re wasting your time.ARTArticleGet Things Done to be Ready for AnythingMy crusade to make this the year to “get things done when they need to be done” paid off in many ways recently. Several events, both personal and business, came up at the last minute, and I was able to attend them without missing a beat because I was caught up on everything I’d needed to get done. A year ago at this time, I might have felt stressed and overwhelmed at the prospect of taking time away from my well-planned, yet poorly executed, to-do list.ARTArticleGeting the Best from PeopleOnce upon a time long ago, when men rode to work on horses, and women stayed at home, there lived a very wise man. He lived a simple life, working long hard hours at his trade, mending the chariot wheels and fixing the shoes the horses wore. The sign on his little shop said: BLACKSMITH ARTArticleGetting Through Low Self-Esteem DaysGetting Through Low Self-Esteem Days We've all been there. Days when you wish you didn't have to get out of bed because you're "just not feeling it". I had one of those days recently, and to add insult to injury I turned on the Channel 4 morning news and was emotionally assaulted by a morning weather girl who's perky perfectness made me immediately turn the channel in disgust to the Food Network so I could be soothed by gorgeously robust Paula Dean. In honor of these oh so wonderful days, I've come up with a few tips to get through and come out unscathed:ARTArticleGetting To The “Why” of What You DoHave you ever done something and wondered why you did it? Are there things that others have done in your life and you were left wondering why they did it or why did you accept it? Especially if it was an unhealthy and unholy situation? Well, the answers may not be easy to come up with. So how do you get to the why of what you do what you do?ARTArticleGetting Your Life Back on TrackLife is great when everything and everyone in your life is going well. Your career is on track, your relationship is great, you’re looking good and just about everything in Your world is fantabulous. You are on top of the world flying high above the sky. Then one day something happens and everything crashes to the ground. Those that you thought were your friends you now see their true colours. Your career has come to a screeching halt, that fantastic relationship that you thought you had, you are now seeing their true colours coming out.ARTArticleGhetto FabulousProcrastination and perfectionism often go hand in hand. Do you put things off because they’re never good enough? If you spend all your time trying to make things perfect, it’s no surprise they NEVER get done. It’s said that successful people fail more than unsuccessful people. Why do I think it’s important? You can learn from your mistakes. You can correct your mistakes.ARTArticleGirl Toughen UpWe often hear the term "constructive criticism". Unfortunately, much criticism ends up being destructive. Would you like a chic critique? No matter how constructive someone delivers criticism, I have one question for you. Can you handle the truth? Don’t get defensive. We all need criticism. It's a part of learning. What we don't need is the anger, frustration and conflict that are so often associated with criticism.ARTArticleGive Yourself Permission to SucceedMany of my clients seek approval from friends, family, industry leaders, and colleagues before pushing the "go" button. They feel they shouldn't move forward unless they have everyone's approval or permission first.ARTArticleGiving of YourselfYou start your day off with that fresh cup of coffee, or that morning jog. You know the routine; you don’t want to wake the kids up for school just yet. You want to enjoy the “me” moment. It’s that moment of peace and quiet; the moment when you can listen to the quietness. In a few moments it will be gone. It will be back to making sure lunches are made, all of the homework is done and confirming everyone’s schedule for the day, before you head off to work. Don’t forget to make out those bills before you head out the door.ARTArticleGod’s Five Favorite Hiding PlacesGod’s Five Favorite Hiding Places byr Bill Cottringer Sometimes God is hard to find, let alone know very well. Not being able to see God, we have to go places where a God-like presence can be sensed in some distinct way. Here are God’s seven favorite hiding places, where such an invisible presence can be felt from the heart and validated by the mind. Troubled Waters ARTArticleGrowing Old GracefullyGrowing Old Gracefully Byr Bill Cottringer “Age is an issue of mind over matter. If you don't mind, it doesn't matter.” ~Mark Twain.ARTArticleGrowing Your KnowingGrowing Your Knowing Byr Bill Cottringer “A huge part of life is to live, learn and leave a legacy of that living and learning.” ~The author. To be able to leave this legacy of living and learning, you have to successfully navigate a roadmap of four levels of learning so you know what it is you have to do to bump up your knowing growing to the next level. All these four levels really help you answer this basic question better as you go: How do I know that what I think I know is really so, (for sure)? Clue: Never.ARTArticleGut Trusting Girls"Oops! ...I Did It Again” Yes, I did it again! I didn’t trust my gut and got lost in someone else’s game. My natural sixth sense kicked in. It’s one of the reasons I’ve been able to make better decisions, avoid some of the “Ugly Stuff” & sometimes people that aren’t necessarily “Pretty”. Why was this time so different? I allowed someone to come into my space, knowing darn well I shouldn't have. Has that ever happened to you? You know darn well you shouldn’t do something. You know you're not supposed to do it. You feel uncomfortable inside. Yet, you ignore Y.O.U.ARTArticleHalf-Baked Ideas Are Better Than NoneI hate wasting food. Rather than allowing food to rot, I have to become an Iron Chef sometimes, and think of some way of salvaging the food. Sometimes I perform miracles, and sometimes my creations end up in the trash anyway. Regardless of how many times I've overcooked the fish, under baked the cookies, or made something that was just inedible, those few miracle moments in the kitchen made those half-baked attempts worth it.ARTArticleHappiness is in your HeartThe happiest person I know is a woman who at 104 years young exudes a depth of Peace of Mind and a joy of life that is profound. Aunt Grace is a very happy person.r ARTArticleHappy Mother's DayHappy Mother’s Day to you! For all the unselfish things that you do, hat’s off! Thank you for putting those extra little touches on all the birthday parties, graduations, etc. You put so much of your time and energy into every single little detail. I assure you, it never went unnoticed. The many blessings that you gave to me and countless others will always be remembered.ARTArticleHave You Learned Life's Most Important Lesson?Have You Learned Life’s Most Important Lesson? People talk about the ‘meaning of life’ and what the purpose of our lives here is, and what we are supposed to experience in this existence. As the human race we spend so many of our years searching for these answers. We search in religion, science, philosophy, and just about every nook and cranny we can to figure out what is most important with our time on this planet. So many of us dive deep to try and find the answers to these questions that tug on our soul. Yet much too often it just keeps escaping us.ARTArticleHealing Our Emotional WoundsEach and every one of us has emotional wounds, but until we admit it, we will remain in an emotional quagmire that keeps dragging us down. Until we express how we really feel, our healing process will be delayed and we will continue to be drawn to unhealthy situations or unhealthy relationships. Even an unhealthy relationship can be changed into a healthy one if the individuals involved are intent on healing themselves. We block our own healing when we seek to point fingers and blame others for the things they do in our lives.ARTArticleHealing What Hurtsimportant to realize that this pain is something that needs to be acknowledged and processed. The longer you hold onto that pain, the harder it is to work through it. There will come a time when you will be forced to acknowledge it. This old pain makes itself known to you in ways you can’t predict. Rather than waiting for this to happen, you can empower yourself by identifying the pain and resolving to take action toward healing it.ARTArticleHelp! I'm sick of being weak- Have you craved to be strong and looked in awe at those who gain the respect of others easily? - Are you tired of getting ignored when hanging out with other people? - Are you speechless when someone talks down to you or pushes in the line in front of you? - If you can relate to these questions, it’s highly likely you desire to develop a strong personality. Most “strong” people wear a mask ARTArticleHOPE . . . in the midst of Fear !It’s so easy to ignore the roses and see only the thorns ! An unknown sage said it beautifully, “you can complain because roses have thorns, or you can rejoice because thorns have roses” We seem to be built in such a way that the thorns get our attention, while the roses remain in the background. In today’s world our attention is captured by the headlines that scream “crisis, catastrophe, the end” while next door in your community, there are some who are experiencing love and kindness, courage and hope.ARTArticleHow can I be a success in life?Are you yearning to accomplish something amazing in your life? Do you constantly compare yourself to others who have succeeded and feel depressed or sad? Are you sick of feeling like a failure or an underdog when there are others thriving and succeeding in life? No matter how many times you have felt like a loser in life and given up, success can be yours even if you have a life track record of failure. The good news is that failure can turn out for your blessing and help you create your success; if you learn how to use it properly. Successful people were once losers too!ARTArticleHow can I become more powerful and influential?Who is truly powerful and influential? If you want to disce a person who truly has power and influence, don’t just look out for characteristics such as extroversion, popularity and pushiness. Don’t be mistaken, many people who appear to be powerful and influential by boasting of their strengths and contacts may do so to compensate for actually feeling weak and powerless. The story of Adolf Hitler ARTArticleHow Living In Survival Mode Blocks Our EmotionsGoing into survival mode is not often a conscious choice. Individuals who live their life in survival mode are oftentimes filled with bitte ess, resentment and anger. It’s not just that they haven’t healed themselves of past hurts. Rather individuals tend to automatically go into survival mode subconsciously after experiencing childhood pain that was inflicted on them. They bring it over into their adult lives as a way of protecting themselves. However, while a person may have automatically been thrown into survival mode there are variables that will trigger their survival mode.ARTArticleHow Much Time Does Email Steal from Your Day?Did you ever pay attention to how much time you spend processing email each day? I couldn’t find a decisive analysis of the subject, but various studies conclude that Americans spend anywhere from 15 minutes to two hours on average. That’s a significant amount of time, especially considering that most people I know would like to have more time for themselves in a typical day.ARTArticleHow to Be Secure in Your InsecurityIf you knew me 15 years ago you wouldn't recognize the author, coach and public speaker - with a lot of Moxie - I am today. I was once the shiest person I knew. As a child, I dreaded the first day of school because I usually had to stand up and tell everyone what I did on my summer vacation. To stand up, speak and have everyone look at me scared the shit out of me.ARTArticleHow to Build a Strong Framework for your Life BlueprintIntroduction In order to build a strong framework for your blueprint for living, you’ll need to learn a thing or two about writing goals. Think of goals as the framework for your dream house or your dream life. You’ve decided to make changes in your life. You’ve spent some time reading, planning, and creating a blueprint for your new life. Now it’s time for the framing. Think of framing as your goals. Writing goals will give you direction. If you don’t know where you’re going, you probably won’t end up where you want to be. If goals are not written, they are simply wishes.
