What are Your Family Rules?

Family

Family

Why do you fold clothes in a certain way? Why do you cook potatoes the way you do? And why do you feel comfortable with a certain amount of money in your pocket? Why is there a certain way you do business?

Because you learned these things when you grew up. They are mini-examples of what family rules are. As kids, we learn how the world turns from our parents, grandparents and the rest of the family. Only school will teach us different views. But as school starts fairly late in a child’s development, family rules get first dibs. And they tend to stay with us. Continue reading

Train your Brain for Good Things

Focus

Focus

Now, this is a little different from all the practical stuff I’ve been teaching you here. Today, however, we’re going to look at a certain power that you have. All of us have that power. It’s the power of shaping our mind.

Duh, I hear you say. Not that again. It got old long ago.

Hang in there. Continue reading

That Old Doubt

Doubt

Doubt

Let’s say you started something new. It feels good to get out of the old routine. It might even help you change your life, make you rich or get you to that place where you always wanted to be. You even got your first small successes.

And then … BAMM! Continue reading

Time to Celebrate

Celebrate!

What? What now? What have I done to celebrate?

Well, possibly you actually reached a goal, after getting prodded along by me. Or prodding yourself. Chances are, you did. And that deserves a celebration!

Actually, there is a reason behind this. It is important that you get that feeling of accomplishment. Continue reading

So Angry at Myself

Anger

Anger *

Have you played around with some teeny, tiny goals? I hope you had some success. And I really hope you experienced that wonderful feeling of accomplishment.

Yet I’m also fairly sure there will have been a goal that you missed. And most likely, you’re chewing yourself up because of it. Continue reading

Teeny Tiny Baby Goals

Baby goats — goals! *

So, you’ve decided to change your life. Good. Congratulations.

Now, what are you going to change first? Woops, caught you there, right? This is the very next trick our safety mechanisms pull on us – stalling us again. Suddenly, our decision to change our life seems hopeless. There is so much to change you have no idea where to begin. Continue reading

EFT for “Rock Bottom”

Down and out

“Rock Bottom” *

We all know those moments when it seems that there is nothing left to give. When energy is at so low an ebb that we’d prefer to just jump out of our lives and start over somewhere else. Or curl up in bed for a week or two. I like to call these times “rock bottom”. The utter limit of how far down we can be. It’s a dark, lonely place. Continue reading

Where did my inspiration go?

Idea

Idea! *

If you’re working in a creative business or job, or maybe just want to blog reguarly, you know this feeling: Some writing is due – but you have no idea what to write about.

In fact, it gets worse, the more you push yourself and the more the pressure mounts. That text is due in two hours, and I still don’t know what to write! Believe me, I’m familiar with that. Continue reading

What Happened to Your New Year Resolutions?

New Year Resolutions

New Year! *

Did you make some resolutions at New Year?

And? How long did you stick with them?

If you are like I used to be, you probably managed for a week or two. Maybe three weeks at the most. And then it got too hard to keep up with them, something else came up, you lost momentum, you broke them and gave up after that, because what was the use? Continue reading
