Attracting Abundance With Coaching and Positive Psychology

Increasingly, there's a whole range of interesting scientific studies in the area of positive psychology showing how and why coaching works. How does excellent coaching produce such profound and sustainable results? In my life and executive coaching practice, I find that using practical approaches from positive psychology works wonders. Particularly with the current economic climate, but always really, it's so important to create a positive mental and emotional framework in order to attract and sustain abundance in your life and work.

Relationship Breakthroughs: Enjoy Conscious Relationships with the Enneagram

Type 8s are from Mars, type 4s are from Venus? They might as well be, considering the potential for misunderstanding between different Enneagram types. The first point to understand is that we aren't wrong because we're different. If you would like to get a handle on each type, visit the Enneagram page on my website or have a look at my last article on Enneagram and relationships.

Let The Sunshine In; Making Each Moment Magic

Maya Angelou writes that "you can tell a lot about a person by the way he/she handles three things: a rainy day, lost luggage, and tangled Christmas tree lights." I can add a fourth thing to the list: you can tell a lot about a person by the way he/she handles being stranded abroad and finding other ways back home when a volcano erupts and airplanes don't fly because of volcanic ash! Like many other people all around the world, in April I was stranded abroad because of volcanic ash and had an exciting 45+ hour journey home with my family.

Creating Legendary Leadership With The Enneagram

Many of you will know that I am passionate about how the Enneagram creates extraordinary self-awareness as a way to transform your life and your work in endless positive directions. It's an incredibly dynamic and profound personality profiling framework that shows how your orientation to life affects your happiness, your success, your effectiveness, how others perceive you. It shows you how you can move forward to your full potential, and equally how you can sabotage yourself and hold yourself back.

Are You Human Or Are You Zombie?

“Are you human or are you dancer?” ask the Killers in their hit song “Human”. My question to you today is are you human or are you zombie? Being un-dead isn’t being alive. How fully alive are you really? Or are you living a bit of a zombie life, going through the motions, waiting for something to happen? Poet David Whyte writes that: “Anything or anyone which does not bring you alive is too small for you.” Are you living a life that is too small for you?

Setting Your Intentions For A Brilliant 2010

As you count the ways you're grateful for your 2009, why not take some time out to reflect on how you want to feel this time next year? What do you want 2010 to be like for you? If you consciously decide on what you want to achieve in 2010, you stand a much higher chance of making your dreams a reality than if you just take a passive stance and see what happens to you. If you don't bother to define your dream destination, you risk ending up somewhere disappointing. Setting crystal clear intentions for your new year is powerful.

Making Work Work for You!

Think about waking up in the morning knowing that you're going to be spending the day doing work you love, work that excites and fulfills you. Doesn't it feel like that wonderful beginning of summer or summer holiday feeling, or almost as good, anyway? Now think about work you've done in the past that drained you, that you disliked, and remember the sinking feeling in your stomach as you press "snooze" one more time on your alarm clock?

Reconnecting with and Celebrating Yourself

"The time will come/ when, with elation,/ you will greet yourself arriving/ at your own front door, in your own mirror,/ and each will smile at the other's welcome , and say, sit here. Eat./ You will love again the stranger who was your self./ Give wine. Give bread. Give back your heart/ to itself, to the stranger who has loved you/ all your life, whom you ignored/ for another, who knows you by heart. /Take down the love letters from the bookshelf,/ the photographs, the desperate notes, peel your own image from the mirror. Sit.
