CEO of Your Life

CEO of Your LifeYour life is the most important enterprise of which you will ever be a part. There are a host of proven tools and techniques from the business world that are available to you to help you succeed. As we can see from the state of our economy today, many business CEOs have been asleep at the wheel and did not do what was necessary for their companies to be able to weather this current financial storm in which we, and the rest of the world find ourselves.

Not surviving however, is not an option for you. Take your role as CEO very seriously and equip yourself to not only survive, but to thrive and have all the impact your desire.

Have a powerful day!

You Always Have a Choice

ChoiceYou always have a choice in life.  If you think you don’t have time to do something that is important to you, you have really just made a choice to prioritize something else ahead of it.  If there is something you feel your boss is forcing you to do at work, you really do have a choice. You are choosing to comply because of the implication that not complying may have on your job and career.  If the law requires you to do something – you are choosing not to have to go to jail or pay a fine. You can choose your reaction to situations, and what you think about them.  You have a choice about everything in life – as long as you remember that you must also bear the consequences.  Embracing this simple truth will rescue you from a life of victimhood and propel you into be a powerful  agent of change both in your life and the world.

Have a powerful day!

The Power of Validation

Great video on the power of validating other people. Stick around for the full 16 minutes until the end. It’s worth it.

You Have the Personal Power

Choice

There is no one on earth that can be responsible for ensuring we receive and accomplish all we desire in life besides ourselves. If we want to improve things, we may not have the positional power, but we do have personal power. Learning to effectively use it is what will move those with the positional power to act, and it is what will increase our odds of obtaining position power ourselves. Owning your part of the situation is the best way to operate inpower and to begin to change our world.

Have a powerful day!

Tap Into Your Power

tapintoyourpower-w-shadowIn December, I completed my first book, Tap Into Your Power: Increasing Access to Your Inherent Power.  I have been compelled to write and urged by others for quite some time now to write a book.  I have had a book outlined on how to change the world (yes, in big ways) for quite some time now, but decided not to write that yet.  Similarly, I passed on writing the book on problem solving or on my InPower coaching program.  All three of these seemed a bit too premature

Instead, I chose to write something that would be accessible to the masses, that would begin to change people’s thinking to a state that is more commonly in power than one of being a victim.

I chose to use quotes – something we are all familiar with and often use for brief moments of inspiration.

I chose a format that will support the goal of having this book have some impact on those who read and use it by suggesting reader participation.  I chose a format that was good for starting conversations with groups and even moving through the book with others.

My desire is to facilitate conversations about power and to create a community of people who have the audacity to believe that they have the power to lead a life of impact and even to change the world.

Share you thoughts with me and others on the kind of impact you would like to have.

Commit Only to What is Valuable

What is ValuableOnly commit to things that you can place the highest value in accomplishing. These are the only things that you have any real intention of doing anyhow. If you have not commitment to follow through on your resolutions, they do more to rob you of your power than they do to support. This year, try it a different way and create plans to which you are committed and build in accountability. This will increase your odds of having a powerful 2009.

Have a powerful day!

New Year’s Resolutions Don’t Work

FireworksEach year nearly 100 million Americans make New Years resolutions to lose weight, eat better, exercise, save, invest or earn more money, quit drinking or smoking, strengthen or make new relationships, or a host other things that might otherwise eliminate unnecessary pain or cause joy in their lives.  Every year, 97% of the resolutions made are broken.  25% are broken within the first week, close to 40% are broken within the first month, and nearly 60% don’t make it past the six month mark. The next year, the same resolutions are made to do, start, or stop the same things again.

New Year’s resolutions – the way our tradition would have us make them just don’t work.  Here are two major reasons why:

  1. Relatively little thought goes into determining the resolutions.  Either the last few days of the year or on New Year’s day, a list of things that are top of mind ar...

A Joyful Christmas During Tough Economic Times

Christmas

Image via Wikipedia

In my coaching program, Get InPower, I have a rule – No Should-ing.  The No Should-ing rule is extremely important during this holiday season and in the current economy.  Over the years, our learned behaviors and expectations for the Christmas season are that we will all spend an excessive amount of money buying presents for each other – many of which will be totally useless shortly after their purchase.

The retail industry’s success for the whole year is based upon spending during the holiday season.  They capture about 25% of their sales and 60% of their profit during this time of year.  Shortly after Halloween, the store aisles start showing signs of items dreamt up and manufactured just for this time of year to play into our thinking that we “shou...
