Never Take Anyone for Granted
I just got back yesterday from a short 3-day trip to nearby Bintan – and from a sobering near-accident.

Everything started fine as [...]

I was working through Chapter 7 of the book Getting Started in Personal and Executive Coaching by Stephen G. Fairley and Chris E. Stout, hoping to gain some clarity on restarting a blog. Doing the exercises in chapter 7; ‘7 Tools for Making a Great First Impression’ on creating a powerful company name and dynamic tag [...]

27. September 2007
The term “science of happiness” implies there is a formula and that you can follow a scientific method of discovery to determine what makes you happy. The formula for “happy” for each of us is different because there are so many factors that contribute to individual happiness. There’s the happiness we may feel in having [...]

I was reading Marc Allen’s The Millionaire Course and wondering why I’ve always seemed to have problems with money. Growing up, my family turned from being well-off to struggling and it seemed like I got stuck with this ‘poverty consciousness’ along the way. Then I got to wondering about difficulties at work.

Last night, while contemplating the merits of microdermibrasion versus the photo facial with my Polish friend Justyna, I began to think about how her culture probably isn’t seduced by the quick fix as easily as we are in the United States. The conversation called to mind for me a time when I was attending a [...]

I’ve just finished a grueling article for work. It was something that had been eating away at my mind for a couple of weeks now – and now that it’s off my back I can see how badly it had affected my moods and motivation. I’m feeling like a giant weight’s been lifted off my shoulders. Steve’s [...]

If you’re not using something, or if you don’t love having it around, then it isn’t serving its purpose or its usefulness in this world.” Discover the number one stickiest reason we keep stuff we don’t want, from Christine Kane.

Mr Wang recently wrote on his blog about the power of thoughts and of ‘S’: When you ask him why he thinks he’s “bad” and “evil”, he says that he has no friends, and therefore he must be “bad” or “evil”; either that, or everyone is “bad” and “evil” for not wanting to be friends with [...]

Self-awareness is often the first step towards growth. But is there any drawback to being a person who’s keenly aware of his environment, his actions and the people around him? You betcha. It’s a tendency to kick himself in the ass for all the mistakes he’s seen himself make throughout the day. You see, the more aware a [...]

Can the achievement of happiness be predicted in any meaningful sense? Simply put, yes it can.
