Can you answer the question, “What do you really want?” How about its follow-up, “What would that give you?” And, most importantly, “What if you could have that now?”

A New Perspective on Fear

A low, gravelly voice said from behind, “Don’t be afraid.” How do we override the knee-jerk, fear-filled response to what we believe is coming to hurt us?

Surfing the Wave of Chaos

When a wave of chaos is poised to crash and take us under, we can flail about and hold our breath, or we can ride it. Ride the wave. Even if it takes you under. You’ll come out on top eventually. Remember to breathe when you have the opportunity.

Let it Rip-The Power of Unpolished

Microphones

When I see people at their most vulnerable, I feel truly connected. We are all human. We cry. We love. We leap. We fall. We yearn. When was the last time you stepped out with nothing prepared to face what ranks as the number one fear-public speaking?

Taking Your Leap

When the time has come to leap, you may think you will have certainty. Not so. But there are things to anticipate that may give you clarity.

When I introduce the concept of should-as in, I should write that article-the spark of an idea that had begun to blaze as I stoked it burned about as bright as a burnt out match. When believing I “could” write that article turned into I “should,” I no longer wanted to. Much like I feel about cleaning out my garage. It seems important and worthwhile but my procrastination mechanisms kick in and I find myself hanging out on Twitter and Facebook. Then I feel awful.
