The cornerstone of all personal and professional growth comes down to this. Belief or doubt. Whatever you believe you are good at generally turns out well. Whatever you doubt generally does not turn out so well. "I really don't think I am a good public speaker and in fact I'm afraid of it" says the man; and so the speech goes poorly, stuttering and stammering and losing his ...

"Who can I become and what can I create and what footprints in the sand can I leave behind"? Questions we all have and all ponder more often than we admit to the world. The answer is so much more than you realize. The question really for us all is what are we doing with what we have been given? Most of what happens in our ...

We have all heard this adage in life. We tend to hear it more and the notion becomes more apparent after we get married, have our own children and then begin to hear statements come out of our own mouths that we heard growing up from our parents. I was listening to a commercial on the radio today that was talking about hockey and the voice said, "...

To say that I love this business of personal and professional growth would be one of the great understatements. I never perceive what I do as work and because of the fact that I feel like a kid in a candy store every day. Excited to present. Excited to discuss.

I was asked this question some time ago and it came up in a session again today. The question was in response to setting the goal to achieve absolutely everything in life that is possible. To stand at the proverbial cliff and soar off into space. To really, once and for all find out the answer to the question, "What is really possible for me?"

The person had taken the time to write a note, telling me how much she enjoyed it and looked forward to it everyday, adding "it is always filled with thought provoking, motivational and positive information."
It was one of the great experiences of the day ...

I'm not sure exactly when it was, but I think I was about 18 at the time. I was driving with a girlfriend along the service road of the QEW near St. Catharine's when we passed a very bad accident. I stopped the car, jumped the fence and approached the scene. Several cars were involved. A number of people were injured and lying on the grass medium. ...

This statement reminded me of a person that had such a profound affect on me a long time ago. This person, then not much more than a teen was on television telling about his life experience. I think it resonated at the time because we were about the same age. Both of our mother's took a drug that was meant to control morning sickness. That is where the similarities ended. I ...

What you do matters. Trying to put our lives into perspective is tricky business. I think one of the aspects of how we view ourselves is that we see our lives as just our lives. There is so much more to it than just that. Truth is we all live in a village. We are in effect the village and what we do and what ...

I work in the field of discovery and adventure. At least that's how I hope it goes with everyone I have the great fortune to work with. The adventure part is striking out to do what is necessary to breathe life into the dreams that became apparent during the discovery phase. That's the part I think most people truly struggle with. "What do I really want to ...
