Link: Centerpoint Mind Chatter Archives
As an avid reader of personal development materials
, I’m always looking to get my hands on good quality stuff that expands my model of the world and makes me a smarter, wiser person.
One of those constant materials that I’ve been reading for years is the Centerpoint monthly newsletter. Inside it, you can find inspiring quotes, interesting book reviews and a always thoughtful article by Centerpoint’s founder, Bill Harris.
Not having used their programs before, I can’t vouch for it, but I can vouch that Bill writes good stuff (and some of it is strong NLP too!).
You can spend days of worthwhile reading at the Centerpoint newsletter archives for free, or sign up for their free monthly newsletter like I have.

I agree that a key to self management is self esteem. I would offer that true life inspiration happens when you find something you love to do and make it a part of your everyday experience. Here’s an exercise:
1. Write down 10 things you love to do or that bring you the most joy. I call this the “You List”
2. Then record how many times a day you do one of the things on your list
3. Give each day of the week a rating from 1-10
4. Your best day usually comes out to be the day you do the most things on your “You List”
I can easily relate to the first part of the story, in the past I was one of those people pretending you have done something and then be very uncomfortable when someone asks more detailed questions.
It is not a good feeling and being upfront from the beginning really saves you the embarassment later.
