What A Life!

If you have been following me, you are aware that I have recently moved. The walls are all painted, the pictures are all hung, all the plants are settling, and the new furniture is in. Now back to my life…  In my meditation each evening, I review my day. In what way did I betray myself today? (Saying yes when…

In Wisdom, An Unknown Adventure Begins

As I write this, it’s that time between Christmas, Hanukkah and several other holiday celebrations and New Year’s when many take the time to destress, deprogram, and discern while reviewing 2022 and planning their agenda for 2023.  For me, it is a time also for giving thanks to all those who have followed me throughout the year, those who have…

It’s An Odd World

Have you ever noticed that the most skilled, qualified folks, have a large sense of insecurity or uncertainty about so many things they are not expected to know?  Or that the folks who are just starting out have an amazing sense of all-knowingness?  A theoretical physicist I know will not feel he has accomplished anything until he equals or exceeds…

What Energy Are You Putting Out There?

As can happen in this pandemic and post-pandemic world, I have belonged to a wonderful networking group, TNG, for going on three years and last night, in NYC, they had a pre-holiday gathering which I decided to attend. I had only met 3 of the 20+ people there in person prior to last night. Two have been friends for years. …

Strengths and Weaknesses

As a child we have moments when we “know” we are going to have the world all figured out when we get older (like 18 or so), we will find our place in it, and we will know all we need to know. Then we get older…  Reality is a much bigger story and filled with so much more uncertainty.…

To the Future

Most of the notices we are seeing now remind us to be thankful for all that we have and certainly we do have great abundance. A frequent saying I have been using lately is a reminder that most of my problems are definitely “first world problems.” Waiting in long lines to make purchases, an order not arriving on time, not…

Letting Go

In preparing for my move to a new home, I discovered that in addition to the normal anxiety, excitement, anticipation, and longing for peace and being settled, there was also the need to let go. To let go of things I never anticipated leaving behind and to things far less tangible as well.  Moving into a home with a dramatically…

Perspective

On occasion I have someone ask: “What does a coach do?” “Is it like therapy?”  The answer is always “yes and no.”  Therapy, as described, is the use of psychological methods, particularly when based on regular personal interaction, to help a person change behavior, increase happiness, and overcome problems.”  Coaching, as described, is a professional relationship that helps people produce…

One of Those Days

I KNOW you have had one of those days where, after a great day before, great sessions with clients, a great speaking engagement, having them in tears and uproarious laughter in turns, selling and signing loads of books, and meeting some really great people, and you then wake up in the morning nothing goes right; your email doesn’t work, you…
