One recent morning I was grappling with my existence, my purpose for being here. Wondering who I am. What I am. I was later explaining this to someone at lunch and at one point I intolerantly said out loud with my hands gesturing wide up in the air, "Ok, oh great grand Universe, who am I and what am I doing here?" 
Over the past 5 years, I have seen a dramatic increase in the number of people experiencing overwhelm. This heightened feeling of being stretched to the limit can contribute to increased sleepless nights, increased levels of stress, a sense of loss of control or panic, increased feelings of guilt and an overall decreased level of self-confidence. 
The young man wearily makes his way home from the long day of labour in the fields. He wipes his brow before pushing open the heavy wooden door of his log cabin. Inside the fire burns warmly and brightly in the hearth, casting shadows around the sparsely furnished room. 
I love the movies because at their simplest level they are telling us the stories about our culture and what is on our minds and in our hearts. A good movie for me is one that reveals the characters in a way that I can find aspects of myself in them. 
Do you like to know things? Would you consider yourself a 'know it all,' controlling, or anal in any way? All of these things, among many others, apply to me and many people around me. 
Why would anyone INSIST on monotony? Why would they put all their efforts and resources behind such an endeavour? Why would anyone be so obsessed with promoting monotony that it becomes his or her number one focused objective? Why would this outrageous obsession be so infectious that it would spread and be embraced globally? 
Responsibility is simply the ability to respond at any time and to any situation in a way that honours you as a person and supports you in your relationships with others. 
As we embark on another new year of life, I find myself experiencing a mixture of emotions. I'm excited about the possibilities of this New Year and inspired by the energy of creation that exists at this special time. 
Don't you just love the New Year? There's something so fresh and energetically exhilarating about a new beginning alive with all possibilities - and I have a feeling that 2011 is going to be an especially powerful, exciting and rewarding twelve months for us all. 
The few days before the start of the New Year have a magical and sacred quality to them. I appreciate the lull in activity and the opportunity we have to reflect back on the year that is ending, as well as to create new possibilities and intentions for the year that's about to start. 
Do you dread the Holidays the shopping, the cooking, the cleaning, the preparing for family that you are not really sure you want to see? Instead of facing the Holidays with horror imagine donning twinkle toes and wearing a merry heart on your sleeve! 
I know there are some of you who have not yet completed your shopping and may be completely stumped about what to give your loved ones. Here's some great advice. Make it all about them - Really watching and listening to the person you are buying for and making the gift something that is meaningful for them. 
The holiday season is upon us and for some that means a warm and joyful time! Unfortunately for others all the cooking, baking, shopping, gift giving, partying and expectation that goes with this time of year becomes just too much! 
If I were to guess what the Jolly Old Elf's Type is I would say, INFJ ~ That's his Myers-Briggs Type Indicator. (More about that on my website.) 
I am a total optimist and prefer not to focus on doom and gloom, and yet I cannot ignore the obvious reality. We live in a time of great confusion. People's minds have been infected by Spin - a contagion of half-truths, fearful fictions, and blatant deceit. No profession, no religion, no society is immune. 
Recently, two important people in my life have suddenly passed away - my friend Kevin Carlberg (the brother of my girlfriend from college) and Gail Cohen (my dad's first wife and my half-sister Rachel's mom). 
We all have dreams within us. Some we may have already realized and some may be works in progress. Some that we may have shared with others and some that are so precious to us that we guard them close to our hearts. Nonetheless, our dreams are important to all of us. 
One of the main ways we rob ourselves of happiness in life is by feeling like a victim. Unfortunately, this habit can be very subtle and deeply ingrained. I first became aware of people's victim patterns in my days as a corporate trainer. 
Big idea. Your days are your life in miniature. As you live your days, so you craft your life. What you do today is actually creating your future. 
When we talk about communicating powerfully, most of us immediately think about how to speak in a way that persuades, enrolls, influences, and conveys all of the thoughts that we wish others to get from our communication. 
Have you ever listened to yourself and counted how many times in a given day you utter the words "I'm so busy! I'm too busy! I'm crazy busy!" or any variation thereof? I would guess that "I'm busy" ranks amongst one of our most commonly used phrases on a daily basis. 
How often do you find yourself worrying these days? When I was a kid my mom used to say to me, "95% of what we worry about never happens." She recognized that I was the 'worrying type' and was trying to help ease my mind. Although this rarely worked, I appreciated her sentiment and know now that she was right. 
Our health is one of the most valuable assets that we own. 
Ironically, this has been the theme of my newsletters throughout the spring and summer, giving my subscribers advice on how to focus on their core strengths or goals. 
The life you are living today results from the seeds you planted yesterday and the seeds you plant today shape the life you will wake up in tomorrow. 
Whether you are a corporate employee, self employed professional or entrepreneur, climbing the ladder to success can be easy if you are committed to consistently following a few simple networking strategies in your career. 
Imagine this scenario: There is something you have always wanted to do in life however the opportunity to pursue your dream has never presented itself. Suddenly, you are given the chance to do that thing, to go for what you have always dreamed of doing. 
Big question for you: "What are you doing to help build a new and better world?" Don't blame the politicians. Don't blame those around you. Don't blame your parents or your background. 
I once heard a revered sage speak. He took a question from a man dressed in a three-thousand-dollar suit, wearing classy shoes, and dripping with gold jewellery. The man asked, "What do I need to give up to experience true happiness and inner peace?" 
Many people are not able to articulate what they really want in life in clear and concise language. Oddly enough, people are generally pretty good at articulating what they don't want. 
As a leader we are only as good as the team we lead. Your team may already be performing well against objectives, or perhaps they consistently fall short of the goals. A TOP Team is a team performing at: 'Team Optimal Performance'. There are 3 key steps to getting on TOP: 
Road Trip! Everyone likes an adventure, and let's face it life is an adventure. Did you ever stop to think about who's driving your Life's Car? Some days we feel like we have it all under control, the road is smooth and we are going in the right direction.
