Being Other Focused

Posted by: | Comments (0)

It is about caring.

About being focused on others.

It is a lesson for all leaders.

Lavin shares a story about an appearance the President was making at an Alabama school for handicapped children. The event was going super well, until one of the children with a severe speech impediment asked a question of the President. No one in the audience could understand and the room became tense. The President asked him to repeat the question, and the energy in the room was further dampened. Again, no one understood.

Building Self-Confidence

As a hypnotherapist I specialise in helping people to develop confidence and self esteem.

Perhaps surprisingly, the people who ask for my help are not shrinking violets and their reasons for wanting to develop enhanced self confidence are not wholly selfish. Consider a few examples. The names have been changed.

Do You Have A Dream?

Posted by: | Comments (0)

Do you find yourself sitting at work longing to be somewhere else and doing something you have always wanted to do?

We’ve all had moments like that and my moment came in 1995.

I can vividly remember the day it happened. I was driving a fork lift for a company that was subcontracted by the printer company, Lexmark.

I had enough of the dreaming. Walked over to my boss and like a possessed soul that had lost control of my own actions I handed her my security badge then walked out the door.

I wanted to learn to swim. So I set my goals, I got down to it, worked hard and struggled to overcome all obstacles. That’s the right way to do it, isn’t it?

After a month of working at it, with lessons, and practice why wasn’t I happy about it? Every time I’d see someone swim effortlessly down the pool I’d look at my own progress and feel inadequate.

It’s sometimes the same in life, and business. You can do everything right, by setting out your goals, making some progress, but feel depressed that you haven’t reached your main goal quite yet.
