Not Having Fun When we notice that we aren’t having fun, we have 3 options. Option 1 is to soldier on and keep doing it anyway. What this option fails to take into account is the consequences of lowering our energy, aliveness, and enthusiasm. When this happens, life becomes so much harder. Productivity and effectiveness […]
The Words Do Matter
August 6, 2014 by Leave a Comment
The Words Do Matter We often think that we use our words like a reporter on the scene describing what is going on ~ as if we were being factual and objective. The words we use are much more like the artist’s paint brush. They are painting the picture, creating our experience. Right now I’m […]
Remember the Deeper Purpose of LOA

Remember the Deeper Purpose of LOA There is the shallow understanding of the Law of Attraction ~ how do I get more stuff? Then there is the deeper understanding ~ how do I shift my approach to life so that I live a life of kindness, open-heartedness, beauty, love, happiness, centeredness, and acceptance? When we […]
Your #1 Success Strategy
August 4, 2014 by Leave a Comment
Your #1 Success Strategy I recently finished a month long group coaching program. All of the participants mentioned that they loved the program and that it was quite different from what they expected. That is because we almost always tend to think about success and improved results in terms of “doing” rather than in terms […]

I’m tired (fished until 2:00-ish am the last two nights and then got up at 4:30 for my conference call). It hurts to type because my finger tips are cut up and throbbing from fishing. For the first time since I started writing these, I don’t know what to say. When we don’t know what to do – […]

Getting Schooled by the Kenai River I’m Salmon fishing in Alaska on the Kenai River. And, man-oh-man has the river been teaching me some lessons the last couple of days. 1) Comparing does not create happiness ~ Guy from Montana is an amazing fisherman. One afternoon he had more salmon on then the other 10 […]

Wrestling with an Angel or a Demon (you get to choose)

Wrestling with an Angel or a Demon (you get to choose) I talked to a friend this morning. He just had a big unexpected expense show up in his life. He shared that he would notice the negative feelings come up (the invitation to be stressed, worried, and anxious) and then he would let go […]
Is It Really Worth It?
July 23, 2014 by Leave a Comment
Is it really worth it? This morning I asked myself this question, “Is this really worth getting your undies in a twist over?” The answer was, “of course not!!!” But I was getting myself upset over a minor thing, and talking to myself in my head about it. I stopped because it wasn’t worth it. […]
