Goal setting is something I've written about on more than one occasion on this blog; something that is flavour of the month at the moment and is likely to remain so for the foreseeable future. So there we have, goal setting, so you either work with it or kick it into touch without so much as a second thought.

Monday, February 22, 2010
You'll hear a great deal about forgiveness as you progress through your day; whether at work or home it doesn't really matter, you have to deal with forgiveness situations. How much consideration do you give to the meaning of forgiveness? What it really means, to both forgive and receive forgiveness?

Friday, February 19, 2010
As you go about your day you'll hear the word love used in a number of different situations and settings. The word is used so freely and so often it is easy to lose the full meaning behind it and the intent it carries. I love you! When somebody says; "I love you" to you, what does it mean? How does it make you feel?

Do you know someone who thinks that any opportunity is generally never good enough for them? Are you constantly saying to yourself "I'm not doing that!" when confronted with a potential opportunity that could open up some doors for you?

Wednesday, February 17, 2010
Whilst the definition of self esteem varies a great deal from source to source, the general consensus is that it is a self estimation of your own worth; how you see yourself and fit into the bigger picture. Self esteem is a very powerful thing and can be the root cause of your success or failure;

Monday, February 15, 2010
The word achievement or any of it's derivatives are freely banded about a great deal by people wishing to impress, advertise their results or maybe just for their own self gratification.

Just how aware or self aware are you? How clear are you with what you are doing? How clear are you about what's going on around you? I don't mean the simple straightforward things that happen on a daily basis; such as now I'm having my breakfast, then I'll catch the bus to work. They're the easy things to be aware of.

Sunday, January 24, 2010
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. There were the days when you belong to a class of other children who tended to be instilled with fear more than learning. The classes were very formal, with little chance of contribution from the children, unless asked to. Also the dreaded corporal punishment was still available to the teachers and they weren't afraid to exercise their right either.

The power of the human mind is without doubt one of the most under used features you have available to you.

Monday, January 18, 2010
The power of your mind is without doubt one of the most under recognised resources you have available to you; by continuing to build on your knowledge bank you are agreeing to improve your potential and open up your opportunities for further successes.

Are you looking to improve your performance with your New Year resolutions this year. Is it time to 'swing the axe' on all those old habits; this time with real meaning rather than the usual half hearted attempt. 2009 has now finished and we are faced with a brand new year; 2010.

Tuesday, December 29, 2009
The Christmas festivities are all but finished as we begin our preparation for the New Year. The New Year is a great time to meet up with family and friends to celebrate and 'welcome' the forthcoming year; it is seen as a time for a new beginning, a time to make changes.

Wednesday, December 16, 2009
How often are you faced with what seems like an impossible feat to accomplishing a task and achieving your goal? They are so frustrating and annoying; and what do you think when they occur, "this is the least thing I need right now", or something similar.

Saturday, December 12, 2009
How do your performances measure up to your expectations or those of others? Are they as expected or do they fall some way short? How do you feel both emotionally and physically when you have finished a performance?

Thursday, December 10, 2009
