The A to Z's of Success
Charting a Course of Personal Achievement

We all want to experience success in our lives, but perhaps the stronger desire is the feeling of satisfaction and accomplishment that comes from our success.

There are two primary benefits to success. First, there is the tangible reward that success brings, such as a garden overflowing with fruits and vegetables, a newly decorated room in your home, or a certain sum of money in your savings account.

Additionally, there is the feeling that comes from accomplishment – reaching a goal or a milestone. Experiencing success or feeling successful is more about how achieving a goal or reaching a milestone makes you feel. Perhaps your success brings a sense of excitement, renewal, wholeness, and satisfaction.

In order to create personal achievement, we need specific tools to harness both our internal and external strengths to help us COMPLETE our goals. But far too often people set out for a goal, are unequipped to finish the journey, and therefore they quit.

This powerful topic will give your participants the specific tools they need to take their goals all the way to the end, and a renewed energy and excitement to get there.

Are You Emotionally Smart?
Optimize Your EQ for Better Relationships and a More Fulfilling Life

It may sound too simple, but by becoming more aware of our own emotional state at any given moment in time will we see a profound ripple effect on our daily interactions with people. Stated bluntly, there is little that equals the power of our emotions if only we are open to learning how to effectively recognize and use this powerful resource.

Beating Burnout
How to Refill Your Tank When Life Has You Feeling Empty

In our daily routines, our lives can become so hectic, that we fail to see the toll that these demands place on our relationships, our health, and our overall well-being. We just keep ‘pushing through’ until one task or responsibility is complete - only to have another put in its place. We rationalize that we have no choice but to complete what needs to get done regardless of how it affects us. And we ignore the warning signs that the hustle and bustle is taking on us physically, emotionally, and mentally until we find ourselves heading towards the threatening state of burnout!

That’s why recognizing the initial signs of burnout is extremely important, because it is only through awareness, acceptance and a desire to change course that we can get our lives back, have more control over how we spend our time, and stop burnout before it stops us.

Finding Balance
Reclaim Your Time and Live a More Fulfilling Life

Life balance is something that many people strive for and yet, it seems to elude them. At just the moment when life feels like it’s “in balance,” something happens to throw it off. Some people continue their pursuit of balance; some throw in the towel; and others never bother with life balance in the first place.

Life balance is not a permanent or absolute state. It’s actually a state of mind where you make continuous small adjustments to achieve fulfillment. It is dynamic and elusive.

Even though absolute balance may be impossible, the good news is that you can become aware of where your life is imbalanced and take steps toward improving your balance. You possess the ability to catch your balance or to move toward a state of balance, just like you do when you misstep or lose your physical balance.

Focus on Authenticity
Seeing and Living More of Who You Really Are

What would the world be like if everyone could safely express themselves honestly, revealing who they are and what they feel? What if we didn’t have to speak, act and think as our family, friends, media and society expect?

We would be living in a world of true authenticity.

Being authentic in life is difficult because it means we have to be open and truthful with who we really are. It means we have to be conscious of our thoughts and feelings, our hopes and fears, and risk the disapproval of others when pursuing our dreams and passions.

But it doesn’t have to be this way. When we’re being more authentic we feel more connected to who we are at our core. We can avoid living a divided life where our words, choices, and actions are not in line with our true selves. We can express ourselves more fully and with more confidence.

Money Wellness
Having a Healthy Perspecive on Earning, Saving and Spending Your Money

Spend now, pay later. It's a mindset that so many people have when it comes to money. Just pull out the credit card, and then pay for it later when the bill comes. But even when the credit card bill does arrive, there's a tendency to pay only the minimum amount due, and the debt begins to mount.

Money, and our relationship with it, doesn't need to be difficult. Helping your participants gain control of their finances and get to a healthier financial place is actually easier then it seems.

Motivation Magic
Awakening in Others the Inspiration to Excel

People often refer to others motivating them to take an action or pursue a goal, but can we really motivate others? Not we can't. Why? Because the essence of motivation is an internal force - it comes from WITHIN a person, not from OUTSIDE OF THEM. Why then do people so often refer to someone motivating them? Because people don't "give" us motivation; rather it is that people help us find it within ourselves.

While WE can't motivate others, there are many times in life that we are called to provide support and encouragement. Someone may come to you and specifically ask for a helping hand as they set off on a personally challenging endeavor. They are trying to make a personal change and they know they will need support. You may understand that your role is to help the person find, sustain or regain motivation but do you know exactly what to do?
