The Art of Success
Last weekend while on a road trip, I was listening to the first of a four part series by David Neagle called The Art of Success. David was sharing his story of when he was married with two young children, and only making $20,000 per year. He was miserable because he couldn't figure out how to get ahead financially in life. He hated his job driving a forklift truck, and was regularly calling in sick to avoid work. But then one day he decided to be curious. He...
Read MoreNo Limits for Me
As a life coach who believes in aspiring to be my best and help others do the same, I don't believe in limits. Let me rephrase that. I believe we all place limits on ourselves in any given moment, consciously or not. Sometimes those limits are the result of where we happen to be on our growth journey. Make no mistake about it though; those limits can be broken. We all can learn to stretch outside our current comfort zone and try on new skills, new beliefs,...
Read MoreGoal Setting – Making Your Vision a Reality
Blogging has been kind of quiet for the month of January because my assistant Jessica and I were very busy getting a new online class ready. I'm always amazed when I ask a group of moms whether or not they set New Year's resolutions because many don't. When I ask them why not, they simply tell me they aren't going to stick to them anyway, so why bother? It doesn't have to be that way. For some moms, setting the goals is the difficult part. For...
Read MoreDon’t Give Up on Your Goals
Sometimes when we begin making changes or developing new habits, it can get hard. It's not always easy achieving what's important to us. Whether it be losing weight, learning to control our anger, reaching out to make new friends, or building a business, there are normally obstacles we have to overcome. Many people want to give up when the going gets tough, but if you give up, you are right back where you started. I was recently inspired by a 5 year old boy who...
Read MoreBuilding Your Olympic Team
I absolutely love the Olympics, and women’s gymnastics is by far my favorite event. Ever since I was a teenager, I have watched the Olympics. I remember watching when Nadia Comaneci was the Olympic champion and the first ever to receive a perfect 10. At the time, we were very close in age and I cut out every magazine picture and article I could find on her. I truly admired her. Tonight was no different as I was glued to the television watching China and USA women compete in...
Read MoreEveryone is a Leader, So How Will You Lead?
For as long as I can remember, people have asked the question "Are you a leader or a follower?" There was an attempt to categorize or label people based on their ability to lead other people. What if I were to tell you that everyone is a leader, either by choice or default? Would it change your perception of who you are, or would you continue to think of yourself as a follower because that is what you’ve believed all your life? If you are a parent, then you are...
