Bringing Out the Best in Others 2008-09-17 14:11:04 One of my wonderful clients has so much wisdom in his heart! He said to me the other day when we were coaching: “When I see the best in others, they begin to see it themselves. Then they are so... Read more:Others
Power On/Power Off 2008-09-10 16:40:25 There’s a message in everything if we choose to be curious about it. Today the power went off just as I was writing something oh so important....though now I can’t recall what it was. Hmnn, how important was it then?So no...
Lost Baggage 2008-09-05 13:06:49 Home from vacation? Ready to leap into new challenges with vigour and excitement? Or coasting along from the lazy high of few responsibilities, no chores, and feeling delightfully spoiled? Which is you? I’m the latter. I can sense the former,... Read more:Baggage
On Flying High and Landings 2008-09-02 07:19:03 Well...almost there. En route between planes and trains after a fabulous two weeks - the first one in western Germany and Luxembourg and last week and weekend in gorgeous Ireland attending the wedding of our eldest son. If you can,... Read more:Flying

Sights and Sounds 2008-08-28 15:52:49 I’m sitting here in Sammy’s Store, Restaurant & Pub on the beach where a good portion of the movie Ryan’s Daughter was filmed some 38 years ago. Improbably, this small establishment on the edge of the Dingle Peninsula on the... Read more:Sights

Roman Ruins & Gratitude 2008-08-23 10:45:11 Today I visited a small German town where a Roman
Villa has been recreated as a museum with artifacts from 200BC to 300AD. Seeing the reconstructed pieces of irrigation ditches, baths and sanitary facilities, ceramic bowls, metal keys and knives,... Read more:Ruins
Personal Best 2008-08-17 11:24:29 Never an athlete nor sports fan, I find myself this summer absorbed in watching amazing athletes - first the Tour de France, and now the Olympics. Fascinated by the demonstration of courage, determination, perseverance, and just plain beauty in the... Read more:Personal
Back to Overwhelm? 2008-08-13 17:42:27 Wow! One minute I’m coasting along, and the next I’m almost at overwhelm. How did I get from there to here? Could it be because I am going away in a few days, and all of a sudden there isn’t...
Permission to Enjoy 2008-08-08 19:09:47 This summer I have really let myself enjoy the time, the space, the warmth, the relaxation that, in my line of work anyway, comes at this time of year. Enjoy that, is, without guilt, or thinking about what I should... Read more:Permission
A Perspective on Multi-Tasking 2008-09-30 16:20:43 A short article about multitasking in our newspaper yesterday morning by columnist Harvey Schachter got me thinking. (Actually, Harvey was referencing a blogpost he saw on Tools for Thought, and although I didn’t locate the exact reference, I found this... Read more:Multi

The Inevitability of Change 2008-09-22 18:13:47 It’s a truism that change is the norm....yes, even inevitable. I thought of that today while driving between Syracuse and the Canadian border, aware of how the landscape had changed dramatically in only a few days. I took the same... Read more:Change
Trying as a Path to Commitment 2008-10-19 10:32:08 When I encourage clients to take certain actions that we both know will help them achieve a goal they have set, and they respond by saying, “I’ll try”, my response is always a compassionate and firm, “Sorry - trying doesn’t... Read more:Commitment
On a Roll 2008-11-03 12:05:03 I love when I feel like I am “on a roll”. I have lots of energy, I am productive, I feel great. That’s how it is these days - when work is abundant, the air is crisp and I feel...
Let Positivity Prevail 2008-12-11 10:41:54 These are strange times we are in. In what seems like short order, our perception and for many, reality, is that the world has turned on its axis. How do we look at this time we are in? It can...
Staying on Purpose 2008-11-19 15:10:24 I have a little sticky note on my computer that asks the question: What is the purpose in this? (My new coach, Shahmeen Sadiq (), helped me pose that question to myself when I complained about my self-perceived failures in... Read more:Purpose
