Few things are more difficult than kicking bad habits or developing more positive ones. But it is definitely worth the effort. Bad habits like smoking, overeating or self-criticism shorten lives and lead to underachievement, and unsuccessful attempts to change them lower self- esteem. nnIn contrast, good habits create a kind of “success auto-pilot,” leading to greater accomplishment with less thought and less effort. nnSo how do you best eliminate bad habits and create go

The key to improving short term memory is intention. Here are some tips and techniques to get you started. In any given situation, if you perceive the circumstance or information to be important and you intend to recall it later, you can then make your choice to focus on it, interact with it to make it personally meaningful to you. This will take less effort to remember later. Adding details and repetition are also some of the more usual ways to help you create a personal rel

What you pay attention to can make a huge difference in your life. It can affect how you feel, what you think, and what you can accomplish. In a very real sense, you are what you pay attention to. A colleague shared with me a great story about the value of controlling attention. An old Cherokee Indian is teaching his grandson about life. "A battle is going on inside each of us," he tells his grandson. "It is a terrible fight between two strong wolves. One wolf is evil. The other is good.” The grandson thinks about this for a minute.

Whether you have to make up a resolution or you want to make it a habit to wake up early, you will not succeed by using the traditional alarm clock. There are many other options that you can easily follow to wake up early without losing your happy and fresh mood. So, here are the most important tips how you can wake up gently and improve your wake-up experience. Prepare Your Body: The foremost thing to wake up early is to prepare your body to stay motivated towards early wake

Willpower is one of those concepts that everyone assumes they understand. Yet most people are wrong about what it really is, where it comes from, and how much of it they have. Being wrong about willpower does more than place you at risk of losing points on a psychology quiz. It prevents you from taking advantage of the ability you have to “manufacture” as much willpower as you need. So, what is willpower? Willpower is basically a measure of your ability to do what you intend to do when you don’t feel like doing it.

Stop Apologizing and Start Living. That's right. I have recently become aware of an interesting phenomenon - many of us apologize all the time. It might be an apology where you actually say "I'm Sorry", but it might be much more subtle. It is a way that we silently apologize for who we are, as if we are somehow flawed and need to apologize for taking up space. Now stay with me here a second. This is a subtle concept, but it has profound implications for your life. Let me expl

The promises they make give you goose bumps. "Just follow these simple steps," one self-improvement program insists, "and we guarantee you’ll achieve happiness and success beyond your wildest dreams.” How can you resist? You’d have to be an idiot to not invest your time, money and hope to get incredible benefits like these. So, you invest. But if you're like most people, there's a good chance you'll end up with disappointing results. No problem. There are plenty of other self-improvement programs out there ready to whisper sweet nothings in your ear.

Personal finance experts often offer excellent budgeting advice while ignoring psychological realities that make their advice essentially useless. The truth is, we humans have an enormous capacity for NOT doing what we know we should do. And failing to take that truth into account is like teaching someone how to shoot a bow and arrow as if gravity doesn't exist!

Wish you had more motivation? Do you set ambitious goals, start off with a bang , and then fizzle out long before the job is done?

Not only clean people look more attractive and are preferred for companions, for obvious reasons, but they are also more successful, according to psychological research. You may not see the link between good cleaning habits and success now, but bare with me and you will be convinced. 1. First of all, in order to clean the house and maintain it clean, you cannot be lazy. Yes, you could do it the lazy way just like I did, but sweeping things under the carpet or vacuum cleaning

Surprisingly enough, setting goals may actually hinder your chances of life-long success! Let me begin by saying that goal setting is wickedly effective. In other words, if you desire an outcome, and make it a goal, the odds are extremely likely that you’ll achieve it. And therein lies the problem. Let me explain. If you decide you want to drive your car from your house to the city, that’s a goal. You likely don’t give it a second thought. You just decide and then execute. We all set and achieve hundreds of these kinds of goals every day. These are not the goals I’m referring to.

Last time I wrote about the danger of focusing on the problem rather than the solution. There’s another reason why focusing on the road instead of the hole is important. It’s got to do with what The Secret is about. Say what you will about that massive bestseller, but there is a kernel of truth there as far as I understand. We all have the ability to use our energy in three ways—dynamically, to create the forward momentum of action, receptively, to become aware of what is available around and within us, and magnetically, to draw toward us that which we’re powerfully pulling in.

An exciting new diet can certainly nourish your optimism. But it won’t change reality. The truth is, a new diet is nothing more than a fresh set of restrictions that you probably won’t stick to any better than you stuck to the many (once fresh) sets of restrictions that came before it. "Not sticking" is the real problem. And like it or not, until you figure out how to stick to a diet – any diet - you have a much better chance of losing hope than losing weight.

Quotes are not only fun to read, but most of the times they are inspiring and motivating. I have compilation of best quotes on life and love. One of my favorite is of Albert Einstein's saying: I have no special talents, I am only passionately curious. This quote, if applied in our life, it can help us to be much more wise and at the same time, sharpens our thinking skill. I believe that saying is one of his success secrets. It is human nature to be curious about many things.

Let’s face it, procrastination sucks. It’s exhausting, stressful, and it can do a number on your self-esteem. Even though you eventually finish most of the unpleasant tasks you put off, you pay dearly for having postponed them. It takes lots of extra energy to avoid doing something you know you must do. The famous psychologist, William James, put it best when he said, "Nothing is as fatiguing as the hanging on of an uncompleted task."

I thought smoking sixty cigarettes a day was just about the limit of human endurance until I started to wake up at night to “enjoy” just one more! I took up smoking when I was fourteen and by the age of sixtee I was a “committed” smoker. Within three years I had managed to ratchet my daily intake of cigarettes to two packs per day, and by the time I was twenty-one, I was up to three packs a day.

Did you know that habits are incredibly powerful tools for personal growth and success? Let me ask you a question. When is the last time you made a conscious decision to add a new habit to your life? If you are like most people you probably answered...never! The reason for this is that most ...

So many of us think about creativity in the context of being an artist or musician. However I prefer the definition that resiliency expert Frederic Flach uses. Creativity is “a response to a situation that calls for a novel but adaptive solution, one that serves to accomplish a goal.” That’s why, when dealing with the challenges of our times, the best thing we can do is grow our creative capacity. We need to come up with thoughts and solutions that are different from ones we’ve used in the past. Otherwise we will be responding in habitual ways that may not serve us now.

I have some good news for you. You're off the hook. Poor follow through is not exactly your fault. You've been relying on faulty equipment. Poor follow through is caused primarily by the mixed up way the normal mind is designed. Although we humans are endowed with impressive intelligence that allows us to figure out what we should do to make our lives as good as they can possibly be, surprisingly, there's no built-in mechanism that guarantees that our intelligence will actually control our behavior.

The other day I got a call from a reporter for a women’s magazine wondering if I knew of any new stress reduction ideas, “you know, beyond breathing and meditation.” It reminded me of our tendency in this culture to grasp for the novel and it even caused me to doubt whether to include this piece in the book.

You are a lateral thinker. In a few moments we're going to see just how good you really are! Lateral thinking is reasoning. If successful, it results in an elegant solution to a seemingly impossible problem. The perfectly ingenious answer will seldom be reached using traditional step-by-step logic or pedantic thinking. Each of us has tapped into our genius from time to time to magically apply lateral thinking to a problem or personal conundrum. Lateral thinking, like any skill, can be greatly enhanced with a little practice and understanding.

Archimedes figured out how to determine how much gold there was in a crown while lying in the bath tub. While dozing by the fire, Friedrich August Kekule had a dream of snakes that allowed him to understand the structure of benzene. For both of these scientists, the answer came when they stopped “thinking” about the question and did something else. They put their problem on the back burner and suddenly the answer popped into their minds. Has something like this ever happen to you? You aren’t sure about something.

Really. What do you want more of in your life? More peace? More time off? More fun? More inner tranquility? Unless we identify what it is that we truly want, we tend to be so caught up in daily life that we don't even think about what will make us truly happy. Today, ask yourself what you want more of in your life and then live with the question all day: How can I have more ______ in my life? Just ask; don't worry about an answer.

In Greek mythology, when Pandora opened the box and let out all the troubles that have since plagued the world, she also let out a tiny fairy who said, “Yes, it is true that you have unleashed all manner of afflictions upon the world, but you have also let me out. I am Hope and will always be there to bring hope to humans, whenever they are in trouble.” This myth goes to the heart of the truth that it’s difficult to endure hardships without hope.

Stress is an emotional and physical response to exte al factors, and lessening stress is the secret to a longer, healthier, life. We know that stress isn't good for us, and we know that everyone experiences stress every day, but once we're aware of how long-lasting stress impacts our physical body, we realise that it's important to find ways to manage and reduce stress to remain healthy.

Some people have bad habits they can't easily break. Bad habits are things that could hinder your advancement and self-growth. Do you want to break free of your bad habit?

The rosy picture of cigarette commercials is a far cry from the grim reality that smoking brings. Rather than help you cope with the complexities of modern living, smoking brings many people closer to the grave.nnThe Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) said adult male smokers lose an average of 13.2 years of life while female smokers lose 14.5 years of life. nnHow much damage smoking does to your body depends on the type of tobacco, the form it is smoked, the tem

Identify Your Personal Vision for Being Fit So you’ve decided to commit to regular exercise. How come? Your answer to this question is a key to your success. If you were to get exactly what you wanted out of keeping your body moving on a regular basis, what might that be? A healthier body? More energy? Strength? Weight loss? Get really clear on what you are aiming for, and make sure it sounds and feels good to you. This will greatly increase your chances for success. Key: Instead of thinking in future terms, ie “ I want to be fit and strong.

If you’re not presently happy with your financial lot in life, I’m going to suggest that your inability to manage money is the culprit. As a kid I was always told; “Look after the pennies and the dollars will take care of themselves.”

I wrote last time about how our limbic systems are constantly on high alert, ready to activate the stress response at the sign of a threat. That’s a good thing when we’re in physical danger. But unfortunately it also can turn on in traffic jams, layoffs, arguments with our loved ones…you fill in your favorite stressor.

Wouldn’t it be great to instill in myself the urge toward wealth? What if I instinctually made choices every day that propelled me toward a complete and total wealth experience? rnThere are many things that I instinctually do. I instinctually brush my teeth everyday. I instinctually bathe and clothe myself everyday. I instinctually eat healthy food everyday. These are all very good habits.

I wonder if you've ever woken up in the morning and been determined to start another diet (and actually stick to it this time), but a co-worker or friend offers you some muffins or other yummy treats that seem absolutely impossible for you to resist? Your good intentions seem to immediately fly out of the window, along with those of everybody else around you, as you all immediately launch yourselves at the sweet, fattening treats, eager to get your sugary 'fix' to help you get through the day.

Throughout the ages, it’s the notable speakers and orators who have charted the course of history; from Aristotle to Jesus, down through Abraham Lincoln, Winston Churchill, Gandhi and Martin Luther King. Great speakers and their speeches have inspired, moved and motivated individuals, armies and nations. The memorable speeches and the people who delivered them represent mileposts in mankind’s evolution. Is it any wonder that we tend to think of speakers and speech as being all powerful?

It’s holiday time and for many of us, holidays that should be filled with opportunities for true happiness—a sense of togethe ess, a chance to give, and a chance to be grateful—are turned into occasions for fights, disappointments, overspending and fatigue. But it doesn’t have to be that way. Holidays don’t have to be expensive, meaningless or filled with stress.

Pamela Busch owns a restaurant in San Francisco. Like everyone else, she felt the pinch of the economic downtu as people stopped going out to eat. She decided to adapt by offering a three-course tasting menu at a set price. Great. Her desired outcome is to stay in business. She’s accepted the fact that change is needed, thought through her options, created a plan of action, and put her plan in place. What’s next? Paying close attention to whether her plan is getting her the results she wants.

What’s happening right now is not because you’re bad or wrong or incompetent. It’s because the world is transforming at breakneck speed and each and every one of us must adapt to those changes as quickly and efficiently as possible. No one’s exempt.Age doesn’t get you off the hook. Nor does how hard you’ve worked until now, or what your expectations of your life have been. Or what you’ve sacrificed for or invested in.

Self trust is a virtue, like patience, that has been all but lost in the exte ally focused society that has increasingly evolved over the past fifty years or so. It is the capacity to know ourselves deeply and to rely on ourselves confidently as the source of our decisions.

Happiness is almost impossible to define and means different things to different people. Psychologists do generally agree however that 50% of our happiness is determined by our genes, 40% by our daily activities and 10% by our life circumstances.

What makes smoking dangerous? What chemicals are found in cigarettes that make smoking a deadly habit? nnCigarettes are made from dried tobacco leaves that contain over 4,000 chemicals including ingredients that are added for flavor. Of that number, 60 are known carcinogens or cancer-causing agents. In addition, tobacco and tobacco smoke have co-carcinogens that don't lead to cancer but can accelerate its growth.nn“There are hundreds of substances added to cigarettes by

rnNewton’s law states that: “An object in motion tends to stay in motion, unless acted upon by an outside force.” It also states that: “An object at rest tends to stay at rest, unless acted upon by an outside force.” Ok great we all learned this in fourth grade science, why am I discussing it now? It’s simple, as humans we are bound by this particular law. If we desire to have something or do something, the desire alone will not bring us to it; we must act. Whatâ€

Ever since the profession of coaching has entered the arena of mental health services, the topic regarding which profession is better suited to assist which individuals – coaching or therapy continues.

If there is a through line in my life, both personally and as a writer, it is to identify and develop those qualities that help us grow individually and collectively in wisdom and love. That’s ultimately why I’m so interested in self trust. “Wisdom,” Buddhist monk Khandro Rinpoche says, “is innate in us; it is not something that can be bought, heard or received from the outside.” In other words, we must look within to find it. It can’t come from anyone but us. Without self trust, we can never become wise because we will continue to look outside ourselves for the answer.

Research by psychology professors Richard G. Tedeschi and Lawrence Calhoun shows that not only do we have the ability to grow through the challenges of our life, what they call post-traumatic growth, but the benefits of doing so include improved relationships, new possibilities for our lives, a greater appreciation for life, a greater sense of personal strength, and spiritual development. Not bad rewards, I’d say. So how do we cultivate resilience?

Hundreds of books have been written about getting rid of these voices because we all know they don’t serve any useful purpose. Even if those who spoke to us originally in this way were trying to be helpful, at this point they exist only to torture us. But I don’t know a single person who has eliminated those voices by any of the techniques in such books. That’s because such messages are deeply entrenched in our psyches—they ain’t going nowhere. That doesn’t mean we have to be at their mercy, however.

People often ask me, “Are you living for the now?” Answer: Heck NO! Wish I could. Bet you do too, that is why you are reading this…the good news is it appears we are BOTH working on it. Imagine all the time wasted worrying of the past, imagine the moments lost – fearful of the future. Funny thing is, it’s been estimated that we spend 90 percent of our lives - worrying about 10 percent that will actually happen. How many times have we had Imaginary one way conversations wit

During the eulogy for Senator Ted Kennedy by his oldest son, Ted Kennedy, Jr., the son offered this story: “When I was 12 years old I was diagnosed with bone cancer, and a few months after I lost my leg there was a heavy snowfall over my childhood home outside of Washington, D.C. My father went to the garage to get the old Flexible Flyer and asked me if I wanted to go sledding down the steep driveway. . . .

If I’ve inspired you in my last blog entry to give meditation a try, here’s a very basic form of mindfulness meditation, adapted from Vipassana Buddhism: Find a quiet place to sit in a chair or on the floor, with your eyes open or closed, whichever is most comfortable to you. Set a timer for the amount of time you plan to sit. Become aware of your breathing, focusing on the sensation of air moving in and out of your body as you breathe. When thoughts come up in your mind, whether worrying, planning, wishing, don't try to ignore or suppress them.

rnStarting writing, that’s easy. It’s the continuing that’s the hard part. And yet if you’re not writing consistently you can’t really call yourself a writer – a dreamer, maybe but not a writer. So what makes it so hard to continue writing? The first piece of the puzzle we’re going to have to look at is called the hot-cold empathy gap . What is the hot-cold empathy gap? It’s where you can’t understand how it feels to feel a certain way when you’re not feel

The other day I got a fan letter about AdaptAbility from Daniel Hawthorne, a guy who described himself as having “high functioning autism” which makes dealing with any change, especially unexpected, difficult. In addition to telling me that he found my book very helpful, he shared a technique of how to cope that he read in Stephen Covey’s first book. When a change hits, draw two circles, one inside the other. In the smaller one, write down what you have control over in the situation. In the larger one, write down the things you can influence.

Really. What do you want more of in your life? More peace? More time off? More fun? More inner tranquility? Unless we identify what it is that we truly want, we tend to be so caught up in daily life that we don't even think about what will make us truly happy. Today, ask yourself what you want more of in your life and then live with the question all day: How can I have more ______ in my life? Just ask; don't worry about an answer.

Technological advances have brought electronics into the home, and gave us no option but to become technologically literate. As parents, we have to teach our kids good habits, and that includes when using the electronics we have in the home. Take printing for instance. Almost everyone has a computer and a printer in their home for the family to use. Teaching kids good printing habits is important if you want them to act responsibly, creatively, and use the printer to the best

Find yourself in fear a lot these days? This is a five minute meditation created by my colleague in Professional Thinking Partners Dawna Markova. It strengthens the creative, problem solving part of our brain, the neocortex’s, ability to intervene during times when the amygdala (the primitive brain) is kicking into survival mode. It helps you get off the train of overwhelming, fearful thoughts and experience what’s going on for you in a different way—at the level of sensation and breath rather than story.

Home offices that don’t use their space effectively can become cluttered and unruly. That is why finding space for your home filing systems is so crucial. Many times home offices are smaller rooms, this makes it important to use every inch of available space efficiently including the closet. Closets can be a powerful help in organizing rooms. It is important, however, that you have the right set up. Start with a clean slate. It’s time to purge. The first step in organizing y

Drip …. drip …. drip …. drip …. my eyes slam open! It takes a moment to decide if I’m dreaming or awake. Damn, I’m awake. I glance at the bedside clock … 2:26 a.m. I make a conscious decision to roll over and go back to sleep. Drip …. drip …. drip …. drip …. so much for that.

All high achieving, successful people possess successful habits. One of the most basic reasons why successful people are successful is because of their consistent habits and behaviors. The margin between success and failure can often be fine, but what often proves the difference is having successful positive habits. All the great leaders, pioneers, artists and entrepreneurs of our time have practices and routines that lend themselves to productivity, accomplishment and succes

There is a story from the Talmud that goes like this: When Akiba was on his deathbed, he bemoaned to his rabbi that he felt he was a failure. His rabbi moved closer and asked why, and Akiba confessed that he had not lived a life like Moses. The poor man began to cry, admitting that he feared God’s judgment. At this, his rabbi leaned into his ear and whispered gently, `God will not judge Akiba for not being Moses.

“I can’t believe this is happening to me,” said the CEO on the other end of my phone line. “They just offered me a contract extension and three months later they’re telling me I’m out. I’m in shock.” Whether you have just received the news you no longer have a job or are dealing with any other change you didn’t ask for, chances are you’re dealing with a set of difficult feelings.

My mother has been telling me she’s too old to change since she was 45; she’s now 85. In a way, she had the privilege of that position because she hasn’t had to support herself. Those of us out there making a living know how much the world is changing and how we must change to keep up, no matter what our age.

One of the greatest inspirational writers of the 19th century was a man named Henry Drummond who wrote a best-selling little book called The Greatest Thing In the World. In it, he said, “The world is not a playground; it is a schoolroom. Life is not a holiday but an education. And the one ete al question for us all is how better can we love.” Learning and teaching in that schoolroom is what inspires me in my personal life and my work. For me, and I’ve learned for many of us, learning to love better begins with the self. Loving ourselves is no small thing.

The alarm was set for six … as if that was necessary. I was awake long before, in fact, I’m not too sure I even slept. Today is the day I’m going to face a bad fear – which by my definition is simply a fear I want to overcome – a fear of skydiving. With a two hour drive ahead of us, Michele and I were on our way by seven am. The forecast is hot and sunny.

“The longer we dwell on our misfortunes, the greater is their power to harm us.” --Voltaire Lana Calloway is president of Exhibit Resources, a company that does design, construction, and installation of trade show exhibits. Following the 9/11 terrorist attacks, Lana and many of her clients were forced to cut staff. She notied that coordinating details for trade shows was overwhelming for many clients who had slashed their marketing budgets. So Lana’s company began offering turn-key trade show project management services and her business has since boomed.

Positive productivity is exactly as it sounds -- positive. Productivity increases as does quality, when body, mind, and spirit, are focused upon being in a positive state of mind, emotion, and will -- then the body also will react in a positive manner. Negativity, or being in a negative state of mind, is the easiest state to achieve. So much so that most people in the world are either in this state out of habit, by choice, or by design. The majority of the news we receive fro

As I’ve written about before, our brains are not always our friends. They have various habits that can really get in our way. One is what’s called bifurcating, the tendency to think in either/or: either I am happy or I’m sad; either I am trying hard or I’m giving up; either I am a success or a failure. But human beings—and reality itself—is much more multifaceted than this mind tendency would have us be. We can be in more than one emotional state or hold opposing thoughts at the same time, and our actions can spring from a variety of conflicting motivations.

Think hope is not something we need in the hard business world? Think again. In these challenging times, says psychologist and hope researcher Shane J. Lopez, it’s a crucial business skill. Here’s why. When we’re faced with challenges, as I describe in AdaptAbility, it is crucial that we think as innovatively and creatively as possible so that we generate possibilities, connect to our resources, reach out to others, and respond with all of our individual and collective brain power.

Today's guide is a summary of the book The 7 Habits of Highly Effective People by Stephen R Covey and was inspired by this post of 7 Habits of Highly Effective People Summary.

Bad habits are very easy to develop, but can be extremely hard to stop. Nevertheless, it is not mission impossible. As with achieving any goal, stopping a bad habit begins with a single step. And while that step is hard to take, it does get easier after that. Once you are willing to make the change and will work on taking the proper steps, you will see that you can break any habit. And once the bad habit is broken, it could be replaced with a healthier one. Tips on Breaking B

Are you someone who likes security, being in control and "knowing" what's next? OR Are you someone who delights in uncertainty and enjoys challenging yourself? The majority of us fall somewhere in the middle and we tend to stick with what we are familiar with. Most people are creatures of habit, from how we brush our teeth to how we handle our finances. Let's be real, it's feels a lot easier to keep things the same than to change our habits. You may make the decision to up

If insanity is doing the same thing over and over expecting different results, what is thinking the same thing over and over despite evidence to the contrary? I refer to my chronic illusion that some day I Will Get Everything Under Control. In my mind, it’s soon, just not now: after my daughter’s basketball season ends, after the guests go home, after I write this piece.

Who doesn’t, right? While THIS ERA proves to be one of home-based businesses becoming a revolutionized and more prominent way of creating an income, I think it’s important to point out that it takes a certain amount of dedication, drive and focus to create success. Obviously, the reasons I want to work from home can be much different than someone else’s. The decision to work from home for most people comes from a need or purpose to fulfill. While the reasons could seem endle

I am larger and better tha I thought. I did not know I held so much goodness. --Walt Whitman The other day, I was driving down a country road in upstate New York when a giant billboard for a car dealership caught my eye. It had a picture of a smiling infant and the words “YOU WERE BORN…PREAPPROVED.” Tears sprang to my eyes. How would the world be different if I, if you, could claim this basic trust as our birthright? How much pain would we have avoided, how much feeling odd and different, how much loneliness and fear? How less overwhelmed and more joyful would we be?

If you cannot influence the situation, change your attitude towards it. We all know about this. But HOW can you change your attitude towards something?

Given the training we’ve had in listening to everyone but ourselves and believing we are broken and bad, how do we begin? We start by understanding that the capacity to trust ourselves is not a fixed state we either have or don’t, like straight hair or violet eyes. Rather it is a quality of heart and mind we can cultivate. Like a muscle, it grows or shrinks with practice.

Individuals in their twenties generally develop some seriously bad habits intentionally or unintentionally and that somehow hinder the fitness progress.

Mental blocks are a newfangled term synonymous with habit. The most vile habit is the habit of self-perception. Example. At school, I had a difficult relationship with physical education lessons. I did not like skiing, football, other "...ball" and even skates. I did not love. So I grew up with the conviction that this is not mine. "We don't need this, we are not like that!" And in Sloboda I had to ski regularly. And suddenly I realized that this is actually not only pleasant

I like the inpirational quoute by Helen Steiner Rice which say, This too shall pass.

The one thing I admire about people who have strong nutrition beliefs is their dogmatic behavior. For example, a vegetarian, under no circumstances, will ever eat meat. There is no, “well, everyone else is having a burger, so just this once, I will too.” That’s not how it works. Not when a vegetarian has a strong personal philosophy that they never, ever, ever eat meat. And that strong personal philosophy guides them to guilt-free behavior that is congruent with their g

If you've spent any time looking into getting better habits to live a better more successful life, chances are you have come across morning habits. The idea behind morning habits is that your morning can dictate the rest of your day, so make sure you start it right.

A lot of perks come with the omnipresence of the Web. It is possible to check your e-mail while on a plane, discover more about fascinating subjects, and have a fresh wardrobe with a few clicks of a mouse. But, with this efficiency comes a drawback. In an era where it is possible to never leave your home with the help out of the World Wide Web, safety is an issue. Scam artists have mastered their craft and can easily access all of your private information. You would imagine w

The first step to create a life of meaning is to truly see your life as the precious, limited time opportunity it actually is. You can make it a beautiful mansion. Here’s how Philip Adams puts it, “Most people can do extraordinary things if they have the confidence or take the risks. Yet most people don’t. They sit in front of the telly and treat life as if it goes on forever.” I have a client in his early forties who dealt with a serious illness last year that incapacitated him for months.

Everybody has a habit or personality trait that they wished they could be rid of. Smoking, nail biting and hair twirling are all good examples of these kinds of habits, which can seem difficult if not impossible to overcome. I personally believe that all behavior can be changed, however, and the key is in understand the correct process for assessing a poor habit and systemically applying yourself to unlearning it. If you adhere to this procedure, you will have a much greater

sung__mantra400jpgWhen I was a child, dealing with my particular configuration of a dysfunctional family, I remember lying awake in bed night after night, year after year, too afraid to go to sleep. There were some willow trees outside my window I used to watch. No matter how hard the wind blew, and how far they bent, they never broke. I took that image on as my personal courage mantra. For years, whenever things happened that upset me, I would say to myself, “I’m like the willow.

A habit is an action or series of actions that we perform in a subconscious manner. We don't have to consciously think about doing these things, they seem to happen on their own. Habits can be good or bad, depending on how they enhance our quality of life, or detract from it.n nHave you ever driven home or to work and then had no recollection of the ride? Or have you taken the wrong exit off a freeway because it's the one you usually take, when in fact you had intended to kee

More and more people are working from home these days.

At some point in our lives, we’ve all tried to get rid of a habit, usually, because the habit is unwanted or something we know isn’t good for us (think biting your nails). And habits, even the good ones, can turn into obsessions. As humans, we tend not to notice the pattern of all subconscious activities that we do on a daily basis. There are tons of repeated actions in our routines that could negatively affect our lives. So, is a habit good or bad? It’s not that easy t

At some point, we’ve all had to miss work for one reason or another. And while it’s less of an issue if your job permits a certain degree of flexibility, things get a lot more complicated when you work full time with a strictly defined schedule. Your manager will want to know the reason why you won’t be showing up to work, but what are you going to tell them? Make no mistake, we’re not encouraging you to lie here. The best excuses are always the genuine ones. And in t

A week ago my sweetie and I started watching Mickey Rourke in The Wrestler and got two thirds through before the DVD player went fritzy. All week long I’d been imagining how it might end, really enjoying the anticipation of alternate possibilities.

It all stems from our first thought. In each and every primary impulse, resides the opportunity for discovery. These untouched seeds of thought and emotion stirring within have the power to reveal great insights, including answers to questions such as who we are as individuals, and what we have to offer the world.

Procrastinate pro- = for + -crastin = tomorrow In my counseling practice, people have consistently asked me about a cure for procrastination.

Our habits, good or bad, are developed over our lifetime. They reflect the things we believe, the things we read and listen to, and our choices in friends. Our lives are defined by our habits.

The hip hop genre has not exactly been known for having a squeaky clean, morally upright, unassailably wholesome image. We hear of rappers getting arrested for weapons charges or assault every now and then. A good number of hip hop lyrics tell of (and even glorify) guns, drugs, violence, misogynist behavior, and a hodge podge of anti-authority sentiments. And of course, the killings of high profile rap artists such as The Notorious B.I.G. and Tupac Shakur have become landmark

One thing I always marveled at was that older people always had all the money, nicer homes and drove newer cars while younger people with families were broke. It just didn’t seem right. I mean, shouldn’t young people with families have lots of money while they are still young enough to enjoy it? EXPERIENCE CAN BE A CRUEL TASKMASTER – Many of the older people prospered from experience. Nothing beats experience. But there is a heavy toll to pay for it called ‘YEARS’.

A major barrier to listening to another person, without interruption, is the notion that silence may condone agreement. If someone is talking and we nod or indicate that we’re listening by saying “uh-huh,” a common fear is that the speaker may confuse our failure to object with our agreement. The speaker may even suddenly switch topics under the delusion that you share his view, which lays the setting for a future irresolvable argument.

It is said that yesterday is gone forever and tomorrow is a promissory note so all you have is today – that is now.

I once read the story in an article by Denis Waitley about the history of the Brooklyn Bridge that was build many years ago close to the Niagara Falls, the biggest and most powerful waterfall in America.

The Aeroplane hadn’t been invented at that time, and the traditional method of shooting with a bow-and-arrow couldn’t work because it was too far. rnThe designer engineer

Respect. It’s hard to define it in words but if Google was any help here, this is what I got out of it. Respect is having an admiration for something or someone and treating that thing or person 'well'. Now treating it or them well is easily misunderstood by all of us. A very simple example is we are told to 'respect' our elders but rarely do we truly mean it. Actually we are told to obey the elders, just in a fancier way. Why am I talking about respect now?

Tom Heuerman is an organizational consultant who recently wrote about the qualities of sustainable organizations: they “continually adapt to the exte al environment…. [and] have a core identity of purpose (why they exist) and values (guiding principles) that provide stability and continuity as all else changes over time.” What struck me is how much what applies to organizations also applies to individuals. As businesswomen, our work life springs from the same unchanging bedrock. Perhaps bedrock is not the only apt metaphor.

I was walking along the streets of New York the other day, when I noticed a business sign posted in a construction zone. It said, 'Spring Scaffolding'.

Now, the second word, 'scaffolding', is of particu

This is of course in a very small nutshell, but only because I trust that you’re familiar with this principle. The though
