| A Wealth of Diverse ExperiencesI've gathered experience and wisdom from many careers and adventures - educator, securities broker, TV news reporter, corporate consultant, author, speaker, entrepreneur. Change has become a close personal friend. Such diversity has broadened my field of vision and allowed me a glimpse of what some never see
- the hidden system of subtle personal and interpersonal dynamics that drive our behaviors and create our realities. The Gift of New SightMarcel Proust's insightful statement, "The real voyage of discovery consists not in seeking new landscapes, but in having new eyes," has defined my life and my core beliefs. The world we each experience is a product of what we believe we see and what it means. To experience sadness when it rains has more to do with our thoughts of rain than it does about the rain itself. Instead of wanting it to not rain, we'd regain our good mood faster to change what rain means to us.
This is the meaning of "new eyes." This is the difference between hopeless frustration over things we can never control, and wondrous inspiration in managing our own minds. A Life of Meaning ...or FearWe long for a life of meaning and significance, but all too often, we shrink from the very opportunity that would deliver it. We let fear choose our path. We seek to be safe, when safety is impossible. We try to avoid risk, when risk is unavoidable. The
best way to live this life is as if we are destined to win - because we are. But, our self-talk convinces us that we won't get what we want, so we rarely even try. If there's one critical skill to learn in this life, it is to manage self-talk and fear. This alone will make enormous improvements in your opportunities, your self-image, and the quality of your life. My work is dedicated to this one, yet ever-present, battle - to expose fear as the impotent imposter it is and
encourage hearts to dare boldly and dream confidently. | |
