How To Stop Being Shy
Have you ever used the words, “I am very shy”, “I need to improve my communication skills”, “How do I stop being shy” or maybe you have heard others use similar words. How about the belief that people that can talk to everyone, they are communicators and born that way? Sometimes called “natural born sales [...]
The Formula For Success
Today I started going through my series “Creating Lasting Change” by Anthony (Tony) Robbins. I have been through it before, but like all books or any series, you never get all you can with one rotation. Tony talked about the “Formula For Happiness”. If you are like me, your first thought is – “There can’t [...]
Why Am I Depressed?
Listening to Tony Robbins is an awesome experience. The wisdom and knowledge he has obtained about people is second to none. I watched him work with a woman who complained about depression. Tony took her through different exercises and of course he trained her how to change and move away from depression. It was incredible [...]
Earn My Respect
“Earn my respect” is a statement that would make a person immediately ask, “Who do you think you are? Telling me “earn your respect.” That is why I don’t believe in the concept – “respect is earned”. Respect is either given or not. It speaks volumes to the individual character of the person that believes [...]
Is Your Business Complex?
Today I was listening to the word of the day by John Maxwell and that word was “complexity”. John talked about how educated people take a subject and make it complex. We all know “for most”, this is their way of showing how smart they are. John said he is a communicator and what he [...]

Keeping It Real Could Destroy Your Future
We hear people say, “I am just keeping it real”. Some people say it differently, they say, “I am a realist”. What is that? Real according to whom? Did you know that keeping it real could destroy your future? People that use those phrases must realize they are expressing things from their personal view of [...]
I Don’t Believe in The Law Of Attraction
I have heard people say, “I don’t believe in the law of attraction”. Guess what, it is still taking place in your life whether you believe it or not. We have heard it said many times, you don’t have to believe in gravity, but jump off a building and watch how it works. For those [...]
Humor
John Maxwell did a one minute coaching on the word “humor”. I read feedback from others and it created a desire to put my views (which I shared on his site) in a blog. In my view, humor is being able to understand that you arrived here to enjoy the journey. Because others haven’t figured [...]
No Pain – No Gain Myth
I believe the no pain, no gain philosophy is another way to keep people from succeeding. Tony Robbins (one of my favorite people to listen to) is always mentioning that we do things for 1 of 2 reasons: 1) to avoid pain or 2) gain pleasure. He goes on to say that we will do [...]
