  • 4 Steps To Avoid Procrastination  By : Paul Moss

  • 5 Keys to Happiness  By : Kate McLaughlin
    How can happiness be unreasonable? If I was giddy, or manic, or obviously unhinged, I'd understand the comment. But that's never been the case. Those comments were directed toward me when my life's circumstances were understood: I have two children with a serious mental illness, bipolar disorder. When other people learn that fact, they sometimes feel pity, or sadness, or some other negative emotion. I understand that. We never expect to have less than perfectly healthy offspring, and we certainly don't expect people to be happy about the fact when they do.

  • 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.

So once I understood this, I tried to implement it a few nights later.

    I love words. I love language patterns and word meanings and the tremendous world of linguistics. For over thirty years I've been studying persuasion.

I'm thrilled to bring you this information.
  • Being Overwhelmed  By : Suzi Elton
    When people say they feel overwhelmed, it seems to mean that they have too many demands on their time and everything seems equally important. Sometimes, it means that every direction they look, they see "issues" or "crises" that need to be handled and nowhere nearly enough time to deal with them all. Often the feeling of overwhelm also comes from living amidst disorder and clutter--on top of too many things to do.
  • Believing in Free Will: Do We Really Have a Choice?  By : Carl Buchheit
    One of the main presuppositions of NLP is, “Choice is better than no choice.” We routinely assert that one of the objectives of good training in NLP is to expand the experience of having more choices on our “maps of reality.” However, there are many other points of view, some of them quite elegant and compelling, which argue that this “free choice” frame is illusory and counter to the experience of happiness and well-being.
  • Bereavement-Pain And Loss  By : Shanat Kuphur
    Volatile reactions are even observed in people who feel that their identity or social image is being affected. A natural tendency of feeling angry is frequent with them; they even feel that they are helpless, and hurt a lot. Volatile reactions cause people to get frustrated, have hatred and jealousy with other people. Bereavement has a disorganization and despair behaviour, where a person is mourning and crying due to loss of a person or being away from a loved one.

  • Change Your Mind  By : Kenrick Cleveland
    Whoa! Things seem to be in a state of flux at this moment in history, don't they? Just turn on CNN and you'll see how topsy turvy things are with doomsday and apocalypse on the horizon.

  • Choosing Your Emotional Reality  By : Julie Redstone
    It is very different with emotions. Because emotions are so seamlessly felt as part of our bodies and our psyches, we believe that they are ‘us’. Often, they seem commanding and inevitable, leaving us with a feeling of no choice and no alternative concerning what else we might feel. In relation to emotions, rather than allowing our free choice to define reality, our feelings often define reality, communicating to us as if they were the ‘bottom line’ – that which is essentially true and is essentially who we are.

    As the divorce rate climbs so do a host of directly related problems that winds up costing us personally, as families, and as a nation much more than we ever could imagine.

  • 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.

  • 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.
  • Dark Night of the Soul  By : Suzi Elton

  • Dealing With People Who Don't Want You to Change  By : Marion K. Jacobs, Ph.D.
    Sometimes the very people we’re closest to are the ones who don’t want us to change, no matter how much better off we’d be if we did. Let’s say you’re a person who has always catered to everyone else’s needs and ignored your own. You volunteer to run errands, you go where others want to go, you do what they want to do. Only you’ve come to a point where you’re tired of turning yourself into a pretzel to please other people and decided it’s time to start pleasing yourself. It’s a great idea — just what take-charge living is all about—changing in ways that empower you and make your life richer and more satisfying.
  • 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.

  • 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.

  • Driving Test Jitters  By : Shanat Kuphur
    Driving test nerves is has nothing to do with your driving skills. It can be a condition even in the best of drivers where they tend to fear failure. This is a phobia.

  • 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.

  • Eft & The Box We Keep Ourselves In  By : Stewart Robertson

  • 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.
  • Energetic Healing of My Own Anger  By : Bart Sharp
    One part of my life was not progressing at the same way that was my resentments towards others. It seemed as much as I was creating ease, joy and glory in my life an anger towards others, my past and worst, the people that I cared for the most was always working against my growth. It was one of those places that I could not resolve; therapy, inner exploration and the standard access clearings seemed to not work. My resentments and mistrusts were always a monkey on my back that never fully went away.
  • 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.

  • Exam Nerves Needn  By : Shanat Kuphur
    Getting over your exam nerves will bring out the best in you so it is up to you to decide that you want to live your life the way it is or else reap more of it by overcoming exam nerves.

  • 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.
  • Fear Of Death  By : Margaret Paul, Ph.D.

She is terrified of death.
  • 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.
  • 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.
  • Forgiveness Clears The Blockage From The Past  By : Tim Whiston

  • 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!
  • Give Up Your Goals If You Don't Like Them  By : Raymond Burton
    This brings us back to the point I was talking about before about doing things you love versus action for objectives sake. You must enjoy the process as well as the final outcome for this very reason. If after 15 years of working towards a goal it suddenly no longer holds any sparkle for you, simply move onto something else! There is absolutely no loss in this because striving for that goal just gave you 15 years of pleasure. It just happens that at this point in your life now, it's no longer important.
  • 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.
  • 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.

  • Guru Tips: Easy Brain Power Strengthening  By : Trevor Johnson

  • 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.

  • How To Be Helpful To Excessive Blushers  By : G Ambrosh
    One of the worst things you can do is give unwanted advice about how to put a stop to blushing. If you don't have the problem yourself, you really can't know what it is like to suffer with the condition. If you tell excessive blushers to "stop worrying so much," your advice is likely to just lead to irritation. If you suggest that they just try mind over matter, your tone is likely to be interpreted as being very condescending.
  • How to Calm Down Easily: Some Zen Steps  By : Brenda Shoshanna
    In Zen we say, “Open the treasure house within.” This reminds us that we are all endowed with many resources that we’re not aware of, and do not use in our lives.

As soon as we start to look within, to take responsibility for how we respond to events, we begin to tap into our fundamental strength.

  • How To Cope With Jealousy: 5 Easy Tips On Coping With Jealousy  By : Trevor Johnson
    Jealousy is not always harmful. In certain relationships, such as marriages, jealousy is natural, because partners tend to be possessive of each other. Ordinary envious reactions rearing it's not-so-ugly head is perfectly alright, as long as the persons involved make it all clear to each other. Learning how to cope with this type of jealousy is not difficult, because it's mild and occasional and doesn't need a lot of mind-training.

  • I Know Writing, Drawing, Designing....I Don't Know Grieving  By : Jill Butler
    En principle doesn’t take away the reality of not feeling like I’m in my body. It doesn’t stop the sudden remembering of times gone by. I want to be on the page for writing my book, I want to feel clear, decisive, creative, smart and alert to the details first time around. The problem with grieving is that sometimes I am those things. Other times, I’m a baby needing nurturing. I myself am only beginning to understand this process. So I want to be forgiving of those who don’t ‘get it’ anymore than I do; those who haven’t been there; or those who wish I’d get over it’.
  • 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.

  • 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".
  • 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.

  • Knowledge is Power  By : David Wygant
    The second time you go back, you know a little bit about the artist and you can ask about that. The third time you go back, you say, “you know this artist has some other stuff on the third floor as well,” and you’ve become a relative expert. You have more to talk about and you are better able to continue the conversation.
  • Learning Pain's Lessons  By : Bette Dowdell
    So there I was in Home Depot, checking out the caulk. As I read labels extolling the virtues of each particular type of caulk, I heard a young child’s voice behind me, firmly announcing the day’s schedule to whomever was with her. I turned to see a young father, clearly ga-ga over his little girl.

  • 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.
  • 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.

  • 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.
  • 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.

  • 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.
  • 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:
  • Mnemonic Devices Are Tool In Memory Retention  By : Gregory Frost
    Having sufficient sleep is a necessity to improving your memory. Studies have shown that the sensory memory is able to be more firmly embedded in the long term memory when there is adequate sleep. Research has also shown that facts and other information are also able to be retained and recalled with greater ease when paired with sleep. This has been attributed to the fact that sleep strengthens the memories and causes them to be less vulnerable to environmental interference.
  • Motivation To Want To Improve Ourselves  By : K. Faram
    I – Ignore those who try to destroy you through negative comments or action. Don’t let other people get the best of you. Stay away from false people – the kind of friends who hate to hear about your success or even steal your success.
  • 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.
  • Never Say Never  By : Nicole Cleveland
    You’ve heard it before and most likely have said it on an occasion or two. Well, I have learned that if you live long enough, life will make you recall that statement. Life sure caught up with me and I have had to recall and eat many statements that came out of my mouth in my younger, more carefree days.
  • No Mistakes  By : Mary Caprio And Fran Elster
    When I was attending iPEC to obtain my coaching certification, they introduced a number of coaching principles, one of which is "There are no mistakes, only opportunities." It has taken me a long time to even begin to understand what this means, but the more I think about it, the more sense it makes to me.
  • Notes From A Hypnotist, Part 2: Creating A New Year That  By : Wendy N. Lapidus-Saltz
    Here are the highlights of part 1: There are essentially five reasons that most New Year’s resolutions come undone quickly. All have to do with how and why you made your resolution in the first place, and the level of support you’re getting from yourself and others in following through.
  • On Being Naked and Other Dreaded Nightmares  By : Laura Banks And Janette Barber
    But as much as anyone has a horror of having to parade naked (except for those of you who love it who, in our opinion, are just plain odd. Nice, lovely people. But odd.), we think B-FABs have it worse. We have to live in our pop-culture dominated society that has chosen a bean pole to model acceptance and beauty while at the same time marketing us into being fat by way of fast food and very highly processed sugars and flours. And god only knows what the government is releasing into the air to make us fat to make us sick so the drug companies can make more money.
  • One Real Change Beats a Thousand Daydreams  By : Marion K. Jacobs, Ph.D.
    The answer is not The Secret. You cannot simply think your way to happiness. Not that positive thinking isn’t terrific, it is. Positive thinking gets you to focus on your goals rather than your unhappiness, but that is only one step on the road to improving your life.
  • Pain, Suffering And Hope - The Lone Individual's Dark Night Of The Soul  By : Robert A. Meyer
    For all these years I failed to live up to my values and ambitions. With good intentions I walked briskly up the path of success. At least I thought I did. Painfully I discovered I've been drifting down the road of heartbreak and failure.
