Cleaning out the corners

I just finished cleaning the area under my kitchen sink and it feels good!  We all have corners of our homes that begin to accumulate things and we don’t pay attention to.  One day we look at this corner and think, “How did all that stuff get there?”  The shelf liner under my sink was [...]

Five Questions to Help Change Your Life

I love this post I ran across today by Tim Brownson regarding Five Questions that can change your life.  It is always the filter through which we are seeing things that can propel us forward or keep us stuck.  Once a particular filter is in place, we forget that it is on. 
Have you ever had a [...]

100 days left

I just received an email from Mark Victor Hansen that said that September 22 is a very important day.  It is the 100 day mark.  There are 100 days left to the end of 2008.  Wow that sure means it is time to get serious.  Think about about your goals for 2008.  How are you [...]

Finding Your Own System

Every where you turn today there is someone trying to sell you a system to guarantee success–success in business, success in weight loss, etc.  I’m going to keep this post extremely short today.  I believe the only way you can find success is to make sure that you find your own system.  What works for [...]

Enduring Discomfort. What can it teach me?

I got a wonderful reminder email from Daily Om about enduring discomfort when we try to change our habits.  (Click on Daily Om link above to read.)  This is something I know as hypnotherapist that our subconscious mind does things only because it sees those things as helping us.  For example, the ice cream that [...]

When the hard drive fails . . . get your ego out of the way.

I am not talking about my computer. I’m talking about my mind.
Have you ever had one of those brain cloud moments where you know you should know something and you just can not call it up to your conscious mind? You are searching and searching for it but it as though your brain needs [...]
