written Nov 27 2008 Who we are is not how we behave. How we behave is a habit, a habit of being and habits can be changed. I remember a long while back sitting in my office in absolute despair. I just did not know what it was I was [...]
Action vs Distraction
I have just finished a coaching session where in a fit of enthusiasm I elected to complete a list of actions that would get me to my goal. After 20 minutes of brainstorming I looked at my list and was less than impressed. There was a large amount of work [...]
