Right to be hurt aka beast of burden What if we forever relinquished our right to be hurt and offended! How many grudges and hurts are we carrying around today that are related to something that happened 1 year ago, 5 years ago, 10 years ago, 20 years ago . . . That’s insane that […]

Bump and Swirl We are hanging out at a coffee shop in Anchorage (because I’d much rather hang out here than at the airport). Terry, an artist, had some of his work spread out on his table and we struck up a conversation. He used the phrase “BUMPANDSWIRL!” in talking about life and about his […]
Breathing is a good idea

Breathing is a good idea My daughter and I spent about 4 hours today at The Epic Sky Trek Challenge, an aerial trekking course with over 110 challenging elements. Early on as I was navigating a couple of the elements, I noticed that I wasn’t breathing. As soon as I started breathing deeper, I relaxed. […]

The right amount of rest Every year we climb the Manitou Incline http://www.visitcos.com/manitou-incline-near-colorado-springs-colorado when my daughter comes to visit. The incline is 1 mile of stairs going straight up the side of a mountain and then a 4-mile hike back down. Yesterday Sabine decided not to go so it was just Sierra and I. We completed the […]

I’m the kind of person who has limited success. I’m the kind of person who doesn’t get what he wants. I’m the kind of person who […]

Is It Possible? Often times when we find ourselves resisting positive behavior change, the “it is not possible” story is in play. If it isn’t possible to slim down, why would I bother to eat healthy or exercise? If it isn’t possible to grow my business, why would I put in the effort? If it […]
Hopeless and helpless

Hopeless and helpless If we have a situation in our lives that we have been unable to change or even to make progress on over quite some time, there’s a very good chance that we have developed some beliefs that the situation is hopeless and that we are helpless to do anything about it. Check […]
Over-Visualization
June 18, 2016 by Leave a Comment
Over-Visualization One of the important things to remember with visualization (and affirmations) is that the feelings are the most important part. So often times when people visualize something that seems to be too big of a stretch for them, it creates feelings like doubt and disbelief and brings their energy down. When this happens then […]
Deep Identity

Deep Identity Are you a saint that occasionally stumbles or are you a sinner that seldom gets things right? Are you inherently good or inherently bad? Are you a miracle or are you a screw up? Are you a winner or are you a loser? At a deep level, people all too often identify themselves […]
