The idea of learning to learn may seem like a strange concept to you; this is especially so if you started your education when I did, as long ago as the 1960s.

The power of the human mind is without doubt one of the most under used features you have available to you. The energy available from one human mind is remarkable; the energy is a result of the knowledge the mind has gained. If knowledge is the fuel our our mental energy, how or where do we acquire knowledge in order to raise our mind's energy levels?

Listening is a skill we all have; however it is not a skill that is used to the best of our ability or to the benefit of all concerned? Everyday of our lives we listen to people engaged in conversation; either one to one or in groups. At times we are involved in the dialogue of those conversations but are we understanding and truly following the thread of what is being said.

Monday, January 4, 2010
Self confidence and self esteem are sometimes interchanged and confused into having the same meaning; however that's not the case as there are some subtle differences. It is possible to be self confident but have a low self esteem; you only need to study the make-up of one or two actors to see this situation in action.

Sunday, December 20, 2009
Goal setting has become an important part of our lives as part of the New Thought and Life Coaching agendas. It is said within these arenas that the process is important; if you're wanting to achieve the life you want, however just as important is being able to set goals.

Sunday, November 22, 2009
When was the last time you truly expressed yourself? The time you let everybody realise how you felt and what you're about. Give yourself a few minutes to think when it was! As you think about it, recall a few more details, such as what exactly happened, who was there, if anybody, where did it happen, how did it happen.

Monday, November 16, 2009
How well do you know your own strengths? Believe it or not, there are many people who are unable to identify their own strengths. Are you one of those people?

We all possess an abundance of yet untapped skills that are waiting to be exercised. These are skills we have learnt and developed over time without realising it and written them off, without so much as a second thought. Then we proclaim we are short of money; we can't afford this . . . and we can't afford that . . .

Thursday, November 12, 2009
Feedback about your performance is by far the greatest resource you have available to you for self development.

Tuesday, November 10, 2009
Efficiency is the name of the game whether at home or at work; no matter how hard you work your output has to match a given criteria. A criteria given to you? Yes, unfortunately the acceptability of the level of your output and the quality of it are externally assessed by a cohort of people affectionately known as (aka) your family, friends, colleagues and bosses.

With much of the media hype focusing on our appearance and how we look on the outside we very often forget our own feelings and what really is happening on the inside.
