Time Is More Than Money - It's Your Life.

Posted 28 Mar 2014 · posted in Self development

Posted 3 Sep 2013 · posted in Self development

It's amazing how our state of mind impacts us so this blog is all about optimism and pessimism. Yes, we have a natural tendency but we can shift that. A fabulous book about purpose and hope - 'Man's search for meaning’ by Viktor Frankl.

Don't let Fear Stop You

Posted 12 Jun 2013 · posted in Self development

We all have 'fears' about something. It's about how we manage that fear. As Dr. Steve Peters (in 'The Chimp Paradox') would say - manage 'the chimp' (or is it 'the goblin'? Or 'the gremlin'?) within us. We can't control it but we need to recognise it and from there learn to manage it.

The Road Ahead: What will you do differently this year?

Posted 8 Jan 2013 · posted in Self development

Changing the way things are done can bring opportunities for great success. But reaction to change may be fearful and irrational. When it comes to work and business, it can be tempting to give in to those anxieties by doing what's always been done.

Claire was an excellent coach. She was a professional, but above all I felt that she truly cared which I really appreciated. Through the coaching sessions with Claire, I have learned how to cope with stress/challenges which made me adapt quickly to the culture in the organisation.
