It’s no surprise that those with the most confidence are the most successful in the most important areas of life. After all, how can we expect to be successful…if we don’t expect to be successful? But, how does one without the sort of natural confidence we see in some (really, relatively few) people, build their…
Constant bad relationships? An unnatural and exaggerated fear of heights? Despondence for no particular reason? Sabotaging your abundance time and again? Deathly afraid of getting lost? Something different but nonetheless devastating? A new book by noted psychologists Drs. George Pratt & Peter Lambrou (and coauthored by our own John David Mann) helps us dig deep…
In a recent post by Certified Go-Giver Coach, Linda Ryan, she suggested some great ideas for bringing yourself out of an emotional funk. One of her readers wrote, “Why not just decide to be happy?” It was an excellent question. And, knowing the reader personally, I know he is a successful business person with a…
There are certainly times when — as a leader, coach or mentor — when someone comes to you with a problem or concern, it is indeed your job to solve it. However, such a situation is much more rare than the need to listen. To just listen. In his book, It’s Not About The Coffee,…

You know who fascinates me? Sally Hogshead! No, not because of her awesome name, which seems just made for branding (which she’ll tell us about during our discussion) 🙂 but because she shows us how to utilize our natural strengths in order to be fascinating to others. And, if you’re going to succeed in business…you…
“Sell Without Selling!” … “Never Sell Again!” … “Salesless Selling!” Have you noticed the proliferation of teachings and articles telling you that you don’t need to sell in order to … sell? I often hear salespeople try and deny they are salespeople. Examples: “I’m in sales but I don’t really sell…I just help people.” Or,…
In Vernon Howard’s book, Esoteric Mind Power, he writes: “If a mechanical robot made a rude remark to you, you would not feel offended, for your ego would not feel threatened by a mere machine. But because you fail to see that most people are equally mechanical, you attribute an ego to them, which causes…
So often, when we hear someone talk about “getting inside someone’s head” it’s meant as a way to manipulate and control. Athletes use this phrase a lot.
