  • Living Life Outside In  By : Laurie J. Brenner
    When you live life from the outside in—you’re being influenced by everything out there. This causes you to push against those things that you don’t want. This creates a struggle and you end up in a continual loop repeating the same stuff and scenarios over and over. What you push against pushes back harder against you. It will push harder and harder until you succumb. This is a battle you cannot win.
  • The Matrix of Anger  By : Bart Sharp
    The conglomeration of energy becomes a matrix that sets a community, a city, a country or a planet into a mindset. If we feel into the tempo of a country like the United States there are some interesting matrixes established.
  • Life is an Optical Illusion  By : David Wygant
    I have a client named Rob who is a great guy. Rob took a bootcamp with me recently, and the other night we were out to dinner having a long talk. He’s a great-looking guy, he’s got a great image, he has lots of confidence – but it’s all an optical illusion.
  • Coping Techniques for the Grieving  By : Ben Anton
    The term grief comes from the Old French word greve which means a heavy burden. Normal characteristics of grief include depression, apathy, lethargy, and sorrow. What is so difficult about grief after the loss of a loved one is that it can renew and manifest again when special occasions or key dates come around each year. Though physical absence is the most obvious reason to grieve, many have a more difficult time getting over the constant reminder that they will never share a special moment or memory with the loved one again.
  • Life Begins at 40 – Lets Make it Happen!  By : Patricia A. Jones
    Past what? I wonder now as I slip into my 50s feeling little difference in my head as I felt 30 years ago. I'm still the same person with wiser thoughts in the same body as I was in 1978. Back then I was strutting my stuff in the clubs to Saturday Night Fever, I can still raise a jig but now it's more likely to be to a Dizzee Rascal track.
  • My History is No Longer My Identity: A Solution to a Painful Childhood  By : Suzi Elton
    If you recognize yourself in these statements, it could be that you are robbing yourself of a great life now, by not realizing that you have let your history become your identity. This does not mean anything bad about you or who you are. It is a fairly common occurrence and may just be a natural part of the human animal. It is simply an unconscious way that humans let the past control their present and their future.
  • Discovering Life Purpose: Some Thoughts  By : Suzi Elton
    4. If you are frustrated because you have many options and feel equal intensity toward each and cannot distinguish any one as more prominent, try each on for a short experiment. If you think being a writer is it, make a commitment to write 30 minutes a day every day for a week. At the end of the week, examine the experience. Did you write? Did you write every day? Did the writing flow easily? Were you excited "being a writer"? If your answers are no, that probably indicates that now is not the time in your life that writing is your life purpose.
  • Do You Live Your Life As an Amateur?  By : Suzi Elton
    2.) Pros are almost always clear on their goals. When they start, they may not know the whole process necessary for success, but they start the work anyway, knowing they will learn along the way. Taking the time to make goals, assess progress regularly, and alter the plan as you go is the sign of a pro.
  • Do You Feel Free?  By : Margaret Paul, Ph.D.
    If you believe that your freedom is dependent upon another or others, then you will wait forever to be free. You will feel free when you decide that you are going to do what feels right and loving to do for yourself, regardless of what others think.
  • The Art of Processing Emotions  By : Bart Sharp
    Processing emotions is both an intellectual skill as well as a body experience. We may be able to express the emotion, recall the memory related to the feeling but have no real connection to it in our body. Which may make us feel disconnected to the experience itself as well as our own body.
  • Seven Cures to Darkened Times  By : Lillie Oliver
    A book titled “The Hell I Can’t” by Terry McBride is an excellent real life example of some of the obstacles one may face as they take that journey to intentionally manifesting freedoms. After years of applying acquired spiritual knowledge and different techniques on how intentailly manifest his desire to heal, Mr. McBride finally discovered how a barrier could exist in ones belief system and neutralize applied efforts. Belief systems are often embedded into the subconscious they can seem near impossible to change even if you’re aware they are getting in your way.
  • Trying to Make a Cat Into a Dog  By : Suzi Elton
    1.) Perhaps the issue is that you never noticed the basic nature of the cat. You've spent a lot of time with them, but somehow (perhaps because you wished it so) you convinced yourself that the cat was a dog.
  • The "Toilet Stoppages" Of Life  By : Suzi Elton
    There are times in life when you're making great progress on your goals, gaining momentum, developing direction and suddenly find a major blockage. There's nothing you can do but deal with it. No amount of complaining, crying, protesting, whining or ignoring the blockage will change the fact. You must stop what you are doing and deal with it. You could try ignoring it. You could pretend it's not blocked and keep using it. You could even leave it for someone else to fix...and live with the stink. If you want to solve the problem and get right back to making progress, you will have to take the actions that get your life unblocked.
  • What Are Your Insecurities?  By : Lynn Lawson
    One of my insecurities has always been that I’m more of an introvert. Even though I was a cheerleader in high school, love to perform, participated in lots of group activities throughout my life, and actively seek opportunities to lead, I still consider myself a more reserved person (maybe an introvert with extrovert tendencies). While I am funny to those who really know me (kind of a nerdy goof ball), I still find myself pretty quiet (definitely not shy) around those who don’t know me well. I can honestly say that in party settings, I am not the “go to” person for fun.
  • Energetic Healing for the Removal of Anger  By : Bart Sharp
    The problem is that most of us were not taught to be present with our anger in some way or form. Some of the more common themes that we create of a distorted view of anger are: good children don’t get mad, a dominating force over us to create submission, or confronting anger with more anger. What they all have in common is a basis in fear and not allowing that person to express them selves in a constructive way.
  • Are You Running From Yourself?  By : Lynn Lawson
    Sometimes I would wake-up unable to move, mentally paralyzed and fearful to go back to sleep. Then, I learned from a good friend about dream interpretation. She gave me a book that provided information on how you can sometimes control your dreams. You can program yourself to confront the thing that’s causing you trauma. So once I understood this, I tried to implement it a few nights later.
  • Shame, Guilt, And Envy: Society's Worst Woman Killers (And 4 Things You Can Do to Stop the Cycle of Abuse)  By : Tera Warner
    Women (men, too, but around here it's mostly women) come onboard for a program and, inspired by their new-found confidence, enthusiasm and another "fresh start", they do quite well for themselves. A few pounds drop, insights are gained and then hope and possibility shine through the clouds again.
  • Fear Of Conflict Drives Us!  By : Suzi Elton
    They mean that they’ve not been able to separate those childhood scenes from present day. They also mean that the fear has become so entrenched that they don’t even want to attempt communicating their truth. Probably they don’t think they have the right to express their truth. Lastly, they mean that they don’t have the skills to express themselves, and don’t know how to learn them.
  • When Everybody Else Is Getting Crazy, Get Quiet!  By : Suzi Elton
    When you are in crisis, consider this, rather than freaking out and letting the crisis "take hold", take a look around and listen and pay attention to what others are experiencing. Peeking out of the foxhole, taking your attention off your own situation and looking at the big picture is very calming and also strategically intelligent.
  • What Does Life Do For an Encore?  By : Dana Dorfman
    As a human being do our eyes behold what few have ever seen or have we hardly seen anything at all? Do we see life as it should be or as it might be? Are we a large gathering of copyists? Are we complete outsiders to the position of being human? Are we here to trust in our instincts, instinctively care for the Earth or are we here to slip into the effects of our mind and cobble the body of the dreamer back together? Perhaps we are here to pass our accomplishments on to some other world where failure is later accepted.
  • 3 Ways to Improve Your Work  By : Brent McNutt
    If you feel that you are in a glut of improvement or that you feel that you need a push for further improvements, here are some simple ways to follow to show a change in your personality or perspective in working:
  • The Secret of Balance Between Work and Personal Life  By : Brent McNutt
    Many jobs are taking too much time We only have twenty four hours a day and yet the jobs assigned to us need a minimum of thirty hours each day. Whether you are a doctor, nurse or a lawyer and even just a simple employee, you need to balance everything. Remember that you are doing your job because you want to feed and give a good life to your family. What would you do of a promising career if you don't have a love one anymore, right? The secret is to have a balance in everything that you do. Quality time is often praised than a whole day of doing nothing.
  • Shopping Addiction: How to Stop Your Compulsive Spending Habit  By : Trevor Johnson
    If you're really brave, you could cut up all your credit cards. But let's face it, if you were that organized and efficient, you probably wouldn't be spending money like it was going out of fashion anyway.
  • Why Could You Possibly Need a Coach?  By : Neil Williams
    Why is it acceptable to have coaches in sport to improve an athlete’s performance yet individuals and some companies find it difficult to accept a little coaching support can make a big difference to their lives or their businesses?
  • The Road That Leads to Nowhere – The Road That Leads to You  By : Robert A. Meyer
    Roads that lead to either diamonds or gold are no doubt fruitful paths to embark upon. Tragically most people never discover either path. Instead they stumble down roads of pain and suffering—never learning from the trials and tribulations everyday life places on their path. Others aimlessly drift down the road of mediocrity—leading lives of quiet desperation.
  • How You Can Overcome Your Fear of Crowds  By : Trevor Johnson
    Whilst you can be sure that certain places will almost always attract a crowd (big sports matches, crowded commuter routes, that kind of thing), there are other times when a crowd can appear as if from nowhere. It's at times like that where your fear of crowds can really come into its own and disrupt your way of life.
  • Rule 39: It’s OK to Lie (Sometimes)  By : L. Lowell
    I tried to be a perfect mother. I tried to do it “all,” because I thought that was what I was supposed to do. Then one day I woke up and realized that it was completely insane to try to think I could do it all. Something had to give. In my case, I had to get creative with the truth.
  • Integrity - Living Your Personal Code of Ethics  By : Raymond Burton
    I had never even heard of integrity as a means of personal development before. It was always something you heard about in church or old black and white movies where some big situation would arise and a dashing character in a sweet hat would act with integrity and just "do the right thing".
  • Rule 34: Observe the Peace  By : L. Lowell
    Every night the last thing I do before I go to bed is quietly go into my son’s room. There, beside his bed, I take a couple deep breaths, and listen in the darkness. At first I can’t see anything, but as I quiet myself, I can hear his breathing. Then slowly as my eyes adjust, I can make out the stripes of his blanket. I can see him sleeping. I watch and more details resolve themselves. He’s relaxed. Bunny’s ear lies casually across his wrist; his other hand is flung out and away.
  • Rule 35: Don’t Buy the Wipe Warmer  By : L. Lowell
    I can’t begin to add up the hundreds of hours during my first pregnancy that I dreamingly gazed online at organic knit baby booties and sweated over nursing pillow fabric choices, cross-referencing my selections with recommendations on two different message boards, three baby books, and the suggestions of a half dozen girlfriends.
  • Rule 36: Be Flexible  By : L. Lowell
    “Whatever you do, remember, that the most important thing is to always be flexible….” This was the sage advice my very wise and insightful 102-year-old Baltimore Grandmother always gave me whenever I visited her. She would always weave this comment into our conversation at some point. It would ring in my ears for days after our special visits. That magical phrase “Be Flexible” became a core principle for me after I became a working mother of two beautiful children.
  • Rule 32: Live One Life  By : L. Lowell
    Popular opinion in the area of work-life balance seems to hold that the best way to excel at work and at home is to keep the two lives separate. Focus only on work at work, and only on the family at home. Do you really need two lives? Not me. One is quite enough, thank you!
  • Remember to Have Fun  By : Kevin Stirtz
    And that’s too bad because after spending 42 years on this planet I am convinced that we are supposed to have fun on a daily basis. They say laughter is the best medicine & I agree. I think we all know that enjoying what we do is healthy for our minds and bodies and our spirits. But, it’s also good for our businesses.
  • Rule 19: Do Fun Stuff  By : L. Lowell
    As a single working mom, money and time are both scarce. It is easy to get so caught up in the daily essentials so that we miss the little things… if we are not careful. Yes, we are with our children all the time. But do we really enjoy them? Do we remember to do fun stuff?
  • Gratitude vs. Complaining  By : Margaret Paul, Ph.D.
    Take a moment to think about this statement. Have you ever known a happy person who wasn't grateful, or a grateful person who wasn't happy? Perhaps a way to look at this is that happiness is a result of gratitude. The wonderful thing about this is that, while we cannot always just choose to be happy, we can always choose to be grateful, which results in happiness. So in a roundabout way, we are choosing happiness when we choose to be grateful.
  • Rule 20: Take Time For Now  By : L. Lowell
    When I was a child, I started a list of “Things I’d never do when I had kids of my own.” My mom used to laugh as I added yet another item (normally right after a bought of righteous indignation over what I wasn’t allowed to do).
  • Rule 14: Lose the Guilt  By : L. Lowell
    Any working mom not in denial experiences some degree of guilt from time to time. We’re guilty for not being at home with the kids, guilty for not being better employees, guilty for serving take-out again, guilty that we don’t do as much as our Moms did and that our husbands do more than our dads did, (speaking of husbands, wait, that’s a different rule), and guilty that our house is just not that clean...The list goes on and on.
  • Rule 13: Be Present  By : L. Lowell
    It’s about quality. It’s not the number of hours I spend with my two-year-old twins – it’s the quality of that time. My gift is being “present” with them 100 percent. I love managing and growing my business. I love spending quality time with my husband. I love being with my children. The challenge is being fully present in each moment, truly sharing my “self” and my time.
  • Forgiveness Begins With Forgiving Yourself  By : Carol King
    In terms of self-help a better saying to use would be “charity begins at home” or in this case charity begins with self. You cannot freely give to the world that which you do not give to yourself. Just as you cannot truly love someone without first loving yourself, you cannot forgive someone without forgiving yourself. When you learn to forgive yourself then and only then will you be able to forgive others. Paradoxically though, when you learn to forgive yourself you will in turn find that you have nothing to forgive others for.
  • The Secret To Get What You Want – Just Give!  By : Masami Sato
    When we give first before we actually fully have what we really want – what we dream of – we send a very powerful message to ourselves that says, “there is enough, and more will come”. It allows us to experience the joy today – the joy of giving.
  • What Are the Best Self Help Techniques?  By : Jackie Johnson
    A lot of methods give people workbooks that they need to follow. They drown people in a sea of papers in order to consume all of their time. This has not been proven effective, though. The best self help techniques are not hidden in workbooks. Most people who use workbooks do not actually feel better when their work is done. If anything, they might even feel worse. They are filling out workbooks so they can examine themselves, but they are not given solutions. Therefore, they are faced with all of their problems, but they do not know how to fix those problems.
  • The Benefits of Energy Psychology  By : Jackie Johnson
    One thing that this type of healing can do is help erase negative self talk. Negative self talk is what controls many people and keeps them from succeeding. Energy psychology can be an effective way to erase that self talk and then allow people to thrive. When people are not being held back by their own negativity, a whole new world can be opened up in which dreams can be reached. They are finally able to reach their potential because they believe in themselves in ways they never before imagined.
  • Personal Salvation During the Coming Economic Chaos – Part 1  By : Robert A. Meyer
    Generations of Americans have believed the illusion that government can control the economy and make their lives better. Of course the establishment does everything possible to reinforce this illusion. Politicians and bureaucrats made sure the citizens of our once great nation became dependent on the government for their very existence— reducing them to government benefit addicts. The establishment media is devilishly effective in reinforcing this illusion through the use of their propaganda machine.
  • Think Positive  By : Kevin Forrester
    1)You will need to start developing a level of self-awareness to recognize negative expectations. A problem with negative thoughts is that they often happen below your conscious level of awareness, and you get so used to them being in your head that you hardly notice them anymore. In order to turn the tide of negativity, you’ll have to develop a stronger level of self-awareness. One good way to start is by performing self-checks several times a day. Pay attention first to how you feel. If you’re feeling positive and productive, most likely you’ve been thinking positive thoughts.
  • Drop the Ego  By : David Wygant
    My client wanted to figure out how to get a particular asshole (“Mr. Asshole”) to like him. No matter how nice my client was to him, Mr. Asshole still acted like an asshole. That is, Mr. Asshole was still confrontational and disagreeable about almost everything. I told my client that an asshole is one because there is always shit coming out of their mouth.
  • Mind Chatter  By : Sandra Hersey Life Coach for Women
    We are so used to its presence we often don’t even notice it is talking to us. The problem with this mindless chatter is that when you think a thought long enough it begins to build up a manifestation that will eventually come to pass. Your mind chatter has a great deal of power in your life. So what does mind chatter sound like? Well it sounds something like this:
  • Your Perfect Day, How Would it Be?  By : Ineke Van Lint
    The right side of your brain has retained the image of that you came here to do on this Earth. Your education and the influence of society have taught you to rely on the left side of your brain, and you have lost contact with the right side.
  • Review of Energy Awareness Training  By : Anita Hall
    As luck would have it, prior to the birth of my son, I worked as a health journalist, which meant I was able to try out, and review, a diverse range of complementary and alternative therapies over the years. Some treatments I found helpful, others less so, but none was completely effective. Some – like yoga and reiki – I stuck with, others came and went.
  • Take the 45-Day Boundless Living Challenge  By : Laurie Brenner
    Anyone can enter and there is no fee to do so. The 45 Day Challenge is set up in a social networking environment. This is a free innovative online event specifically designed to help people move through all the stages of making their passions come true in little over a month.
  • Secret Methods of Manifestation Revealed  By : Gary Evans
    Although you should be specific with what you want, you shouldn't tell the universe how to do its job. Getting Mr. Howard to present you with that check is a difficult task because Mr. Howard may not be on the same vibrational frequency as you and so you both cannot line up. Although I wouldn't consider it impossible, I would consider it very unlikely to occur.
  • Current Methods of Speed Reading Programs  By : Robert Kokoska
    Traditional speed reading programs are based on something that we all do naturally - instead of reading a passage in detail, there are times when we just scan it, letting our eyes travel down the page quickly. With simple scanning, most people can read up to 600 or 700 wpm (words per minute), as opposed to 200 - 400 wpm when we are reading carefully, for comprehension and study. The first speed reading programs just improve on scanning speed.
  • If Only...  By : Mary Kay Buttery
    On the surface some of the things that I constitute as a wonder in my life might for a onlooker or two bring a response such as; "really, that?" or even "big deal" . So, let me share how my life flows by telling about a recent experience of mine. For things to be easy and simple I prefer to have as few personnel/business accounts as possible, and I look for businesses that cater to my specific needs. I was recently thinking about mail forwarding services and hoping to find one that filled the essentials of an individual who travelled a lot throughout the year.
  • Finding Motivation at Work  By : Shannon M. Clooney
    When you sit down at your desk each morning do you dread the workday ahead of you? Do you have a hard time getting started on your work because you're simply not interested? A great way to get motivated is to think about all of the things that your job allows for you to do. You put food on the table, you are able to pay your bills, provide a place to live, go out for drinks with friends, and perhaps even go on vacations with the family. When you think about all of the great things that you get because you work, suddenly you'll feel motivated to get started and keep pressing on throughout the workday.
  • Top 5 Ways To Help Control Your Anger  By : Trevor Johnson
    By putting these easy to follow tips into practice, you should be able to gradually reduce your bouts of anger and become a person who people want to associate with again, rather than someone who blows their top at the slightest provocation and everyone avoids as much as possible.

  • Intuition - Your Invisible Guardian Angel  By : Thejendra Sreenivas
    Intuition does not speak to us in clear language. It communicates with us through omens, feelings and emotions. However, as we grow older and become more rational or logic seekers we lose touch with our intuition. We start insulting it, refuse to accept it and often become cynical about it. And thousands of people over the ages have constantly tried to debunk its existence, desperately try to prove it wrong and argue endlessly about its existence. But, like it or not and believe it or not, intuition exists and it is your invisible guardian angel.
  • Body Image and Self Esteem  By : Carla Valencia
    How do you feel about your body image ?.The relationship that you have with your body is like any other relationship involves caring and concern. You have to create a positive body image.

  • Low Self Esteem Symptoms  By : Carla Valencia
    This is usually known as complaining. I used to complain a lot in the past. Of course it was always everybody else fault. I found that this kind of behavior is a symptom of low self esteem. In blaming others I did not assumed responsibility. By not assuming responsibility I became a victim of my circumstances. This is a sign of low self esteem.
  • Guru Tips: Ten Favorite Concepts About Life  By : Joe Hurley
    There are so many energies, going in so many different directions. Some are in a hurry, while some are going slow. Some are considerate, and some are trying to force their way. In many vibrational arenas these energies of force, power, and control exist outside the speed of love. It is easy to get hurt, overwhelmed, exhausted, and overrun by these energies.
  • Hypnosis For Actors  By : Wendy N. Lapidus-Saltz
    Hopkins knew smoking wasn’t healthy and, it is rumored, was concerned about his voice, so smoking-cessation hypnosis was an ideal choice for him, but there are many other uses of hypnosis that could be beneficial to actors.
  • You Can't Get There From Here  By : Bette Dowdell
    Too many of us invest in the “can’t get there from here” scenario and give up before we take the first step. The Chinese saying, “The longest journey starts with a single step,” doesn’t apply because we won’t take that first step.
  • How to be Happy - The Carrot and the Stick  By : Mr. P. Booker
    Imagine an eastern philosopher filling up water jugs by a river. He was serving a whole village of water so that they could take it back to their homes.

  • Dealing With Risk and Fear  By : Bob And Melinda Blanchard
    The dictionary defines fear as: an emotion experienced in anticipation of some specific pain or danger. Many people are so afraid of taking a risk that they never make a move. We can all find any number of reasons to be afraid: fear of failure, fear of success, fear of change, fear of making a mistake, fear of being rejected, fear of looking foolish. All of these are understandable fears, but none of them is a reason to stay stuck.
  • The Myth of More  By : Marci Shimoff
    Because Madison Avenue doesn't want us to. Advertising exists to perpetuate the Myth of More. Billions of dollars are spent every year to convince you that you're not okay the way you are and that you need things — lots and lots of them — to make you happy.
  • How to Keep Doubt From Destroying Your Dreams  By : Bonnie McFarland

  • Learning to Prioritize: Helping You Stay on Task  By : Ronnie Nijmeh
    When you function like this it can be awfully difficult to complete tasks the way you want it done and when it should be done. Learning to prioritize will help you stay on task, tending to one item before moving onto another. When you are busy and continually multi-tasking this can be a hard skill to learn, but it can be made easier through the use of prioritization affirmations.
  • Questions To Ask Yourself For A More Peaceful Life  By : Ronnie Nijmeh

  • Four Ways To Create Space In Your Life  By : Lynn Hull And Julie Molner
    The idea of time management gets so much attention it is no wonder that many of our clients come to us with similar situations as Donna. They believe that if they had better time management strategies, life would suddenly become much easier. People tend to think that time management is the answer. They are therefore very often surprised to learn that as coaches we do not ‘do’ time management. We can however offer space management!
  • Who Do You Want To Be?  By : Lynn Hull And Julie Molner
    In this day and age, it is becoming somewhat more common for people to think in terms of “who” they want to be or “who” they are as opposed to what they “do”. It is very reassuring to see this shift because what you do in your life isn’t what matters—it’s who you are being that is important. Look at people who have made a difference and although they may be famous for what they have “done”, it was the “being” of them that allowed that difference to occur.
  • Plug Yourself In To Spirit  By : Marci Shimoff
    In interviewing 100 unconditionally happy people for my book, Happy for No Reason: 7 Steps to Being Happy from the Inside Out, I discovered that they all seem to share a deep connection with Spirit. It doesn't matter what you call it — Spirit, Higher Power, Universal Source, Creative Intelligence, the Unified Field, Nature, or God — we're talking about the same thing. Plugging in to Spirit is the experience of feeling connected to an energy bigger than yourself. The more deeply you experience that connection, the richer and more joyful your life feels.
  • Fear Of Death  By : Margaret Paul, Ph.D.
    Kenny, a client of mine, told me that his mother had a stroke and has been left totally paralyzed at the age of 76. She had been told for years that she needed to stop smoking and drinking, but never did. She smoked and drank heavily for 50 years. She her told her family, and put into her Advance Health Care Directive, that she didn't want extraordinary life support if something like a catastrophic stroke happened, yet now she wants to be on the life support rather than die. She is terrified of death.
  • Why Satan Got Kicked Out Of Heaven  By : Bette Dowdell

  • Are You A Good Reciever?  By : Cindy Ashton
    If you are like Kelly, you are probably a good receiver. What does this mean in relation to your life? Well, if you have been visioning what you want AND taking action, but not seeing results, you may not be a good receiver. How are you supposed to ACCEPT your good into your life, when you can't even receive a simple compliment and feel you deserve it, no strings?
  • What In The World Is Going On?! ~ How The Consciousness Shift May Be Affecting You  By : Jim Malloy
    If you are experiencing some - or all - of these things, take heart. Believe it or not, it is a sign that something very positive is happening to you, and to the planet. These symptoms are (in most cases) a "by-product" of an extraordinary spiritual awakening - or "consciousness shift" - that Planet Earth and humanity are currently undergoing. This awakening has been prophesied for ages, and has been called "The Great Shift" -- "The Planetary Ascension" -- "The Quickening" -- "An Evolutionary Leap" -- and more recently, "Awakening to the New Consciousness."
  • Passion And Performance Go Hand In Hand  By : Ronnie Nijmeh
    Passion affirmations can help you remember why it's important to remain passionate about everything that you do. If you become complacent in life, your performance suffers and your success isn't what it could be. Through free positive affirmations you really can live a more passionate, positive life.
  • Can You Forgive?  By : Marci Shimoff
    Forgiveness is one of the 21 core habits of unconditionally happy people I discovered through my research for my book, Happy for No Reason: 7 Steps to Being Happy from the Inside Out. The reality is whether the trespass against you is big or small, you can't be truly happy until you forgive.

  • Forgiveness Clears The Blockage From The Past  By : Tim Whiston
    Most people resist the idea of forgiveness because they want to hold on to blaming others for their problems. However, even when others do play a hand in the “negative” events of our life, we can never fully move pat such events without mindfully forgiving and letting go.
  • Your Moment Of Power Is Now  By : Tim Whiston

  • No Mistakes  By : Mary Caprio And Fran Elster

  • Replace Negative Thinking With Positive Thinking  By : Ronnie Nijmeh
    Negative thinking affirmations are a way to change the way that you look at the world starting right now. Instead of always looking at the glass as half empty you can teach yourself to see it as overflowing. You may be thinking that this way of thought will be nothing less than a miracle, but it's not! With negative thinking affirmations anything is possible, regardless of how negative your thought process is and how long you negative thinking has plagued you.
  • Enhancing Brainpower   By : Bertil Hjert
    However, there are several situations that confirm this such as when you walk into a room, you are suddenly unable to find your keys. Another situation is that some people even forget why they entered into a room. This happens due to the short-term memory. Sometimes, people may also feel overwhelmed by certain things such as those that demand their precious time.
  • Make Time For Alone Time  By : Kaled Asmri
    When someone asks for some alone time, our first reaction may be to call them a jerk. But, to be fair, we all need alone time. That’s not just a throw-away statement, it’s scientific fact. Psychologically, humans have a need for privacy; too much society, over time, can grate on a person’s nerves, make them irritable, make them, so to speak, “not themselves.” Only after a period of retreat can they rediscover themselves; and only when they find themselves can they find the people closest to them.
  • Self Improvement: Leisure Time, Retirement Time  By : Margaret Paul, Ph.D.

  • Where Is The Power In Positive?  By : Ronnie Nijmeh
    Our lives are often a reflection of our past successes and failures. Our responses are automatic, having been formed during those earlier times in our lives that we encountered these circumstances. Positive affirmations can help develop a transformed attitude toward the unexpected ups and downs of life. Positive affirmations can enhance the "ups" to newer heights and refocus your energy when it comes to the "downs." The more determined you are to make the changes by using your positive affirmations, the more prepared you will be to accept the changes and let go of the past circumstances that disrupt your positive focus.
  • Make Positive Thinking Your Way Of Thinking  By : Ronnie Nijmeh

  • Staying Calm Under Pressure  By : Ronnie Nijmeh
    During those rough days when nothing seems to be going our way, we can choose how we react. We could pull our hair out and mutter swear words... or we can use positive self-talk by repeating a few anti-anxiety affirmations to ourselves. These positive affirmations can help to ground us and remind us that we ultimately have control over how we respond to external stresses.

  • The Science Of Reading While Walking  By : Abderisak.G Adam
    Before I begin to describe to you how you “walk reading” can be done in an efficient way, I'd like to issue a small warning for some potential danger. As common knowledge tells us, reading while walking demands some level of mental participation for it to work, that is to say, you can loose focus on what might be ahead of you on the street. I would therefor recommend you do not try this out on busy streets or any other place of danger. Having that said, here's how you can do it:
  • Content & Context Reframing For Results  By : Stewart Robertson
    An actual event – like a rainy day, has no meaning on its own. It’s the people who gives meaning to certain events in life depending on their background, values, beliefs, likes and dislikes cultural practices and many more. Reframing is a technique of changing the meaning of things, to get a different response or behavior.

  • Painfree Change: Is It Possible?  By : Wendy N. Lapidus-Saltz
    For most people, these feel like good reasons for staying exactly as they are, doing what they do. It’s hard to initiate change—especially our own. We can’t access an outside point-of-view to assess the situation if our conversations about change-making take place entirely in our own minds.
