Do you want to live in a box of your own making? Or are you willing to let go of your old self to discover new possibilities?

Just because you love someone doesn't mean you have to be hostage to their moods or emotions. Are you constantly placating them? Are you ready to stop doing that? What if you chose instead to focus on creating your life, and let them be them and you be you. It may feel uncomfortable at first, and they may not like it, but you will get over it. Go ahead and dream a bigger dream for you!

How committed are you to following through on the promises you make to yourself and others? So long as you have breath it is not too late to pick yourself up and fulfill the promises you make to yourself.

How you start your day can have a strong influence on what happens throughout the day. What happens throughout each day is shapes the pattern of your life, and the joy and fulfillment you experience in life. We live in a world with other people.

The j...

Things can happen that dampen your spirit. Plans don't always go according to plan. Big and small dissappointments can be devastating, affect your self-esteem, and whittle away your confidence. These are the times you have to give yourself a reason to get up and get going, or just open your eyes.

Our minds go with us wherever we go, and either suport us in living a great life, or can make life feel not worth living. Care for yourself by taking care of your mental health. Listen up..

Women you are amazing, and so is your body. With or without children you deserve to be celebrated just for being you. Happy Mother's Day.

If you're waiting for all the answers before you choose to upgrade your life it will never happen... So what can you do?

How kind are you to yourself? No matter how thoughtful you think you may be towards other people, if you think badly of yourself, you are setting yourself up to under achieve. Yes, do reflect on how you can do even better, but also give yourself credit for what you have achieved, and how far you've come.

How often do you go sit in the past and stay there? Does your mind continually wander back to a hurtful event or conversation? Be honest with yourself about this, does it continue to hurt? Brendon Burchard spoke on a similar topic and suggested the following simple, yet effective affirmation. He said "today you have a choice". That affirmation brings you back to the present moment. Make a note of...

Has your life become very circular, doing the same things day after day, year after year? Have you become too comfortable and stopped exploring life? When was the last time you took a risk?

Speaking with a stran...

What are two words we must master as part of our success? Listen to the podcast to hear more....

How many times have you stopped yourself from bringing your ideas to life because someone else couldn't see it? Grow through the challenge.

We like to get busy doing, achieving, and setting goals, but taking time to just be in the moment is equally important. When was the last time you took a moment to soak in the beauty and inspiration that surrounds you?

I've encouraged you in previous episodes to think about your big dreams, but today, I'm asking you to think small. Big dreams change your life, but figuring out how to bring those big ideas to life, can seem daunting. Big dreams don't materialise out of nowhere. Little steps make the big dreams happen. One of the people that inspire me is Brendon Burchard, a leading motivational coach. If you are...

We all do it, or have done it... give our time to people, places, projects, ideas or things that do little to move your life forward. Time is so precious! How would you feel if one day you woke up to realize that you ran out of time and no longer had the opportunity to do the things you would have loved to do? You no longer had time to put your ideas into action? You've made and kept commitments t...

There is something inside of you that keeps calling out to be heard. Something looking for you to respond. What is that thing? Are you being called to dance, but not dancing? Do you love to mentor, but not mentoring? Do you feel called to offer a skill that you bring in a unique way? Whatever it is, it needs a conversation with you everyday. Get a journal and respond to it. Create a conversation....

Life across the world has changed dramatically over the last few years. In the past it was exciting to look forward to the New Year but after events such as the Covid19 pandemic, shutdowns, mass unemployment, food shortage, unprecedented natural disasters, unanticipated war and political upheaval, the New Year holds far too much uncertainty.

You might be surprised at the blessings that will turn up at...
