As I’m sure most other people have been, I’ve been watching the Olympics with awe and amazement. Seeing these young people reach the goals they want to achieve and receiving their medals, tells us that there are many people out there who know without a doubt that it’s absolutely possible to achieve what you want in life. Imagine being a young guy of 23 and winning 8 gold medals in one Olympics, beating all previous records or the 41 year old swimmer who won silver medals.  Both very... Read Full Story

My apologies for not posting last week.  Many new things have been happening at The Astonishing Power of You. One of the things I’ve been hearing on my master mind calls and various coaching calls is about productivity and perfection and strangely enough both of these go together and can really create obstacles in business and in life. Being busy does not mean you are being productive or efficient.   We can all find things to keep us busy!  I know I used to do that, procrastinating big time... Read Full Story

Which one are you to yourself?  Here we are a little more than half way through the year.  A very important year for the US and a very important year for you too!  Why is that you say?  How about something really simple like it’s time to check whether you are on track for the year, whether you are being your friend or are working against yourself? This time of the year is a great time to rate your professional and/or personal life.  If you use the wheel and follow the instructions you will... Read Full Story

Whether personally or professionally you can either be at cause and create the life you want or you can be at the effect of anything and everything that life happens to throw at you.   You’d be really surprised at how many people live on the effect side of life and don’t understand why their days are not joyful and happy.  It’s up to you to take charge of your own destiny. You have the most powerful tool you will ever need in the 3” between your ears! Namely your mind!  It creates just about... Read Full Story

Whether in your personal or professional life you want to be living a life that you really love. Are you living the life you envisioned 5 years ago?  What are you envisioning for your life and/or business 5 years from now? The past few weeks have been very interesting and I’ve had the honor of actually connecting with a lot of people who receive my Monday Motivator and newsletter who until now I didn’t know. I’ve had so much fun and joy talking to people who are interested in my “Say Yes to... Read Full Story

Hi Everyone, I have some really wonderful new “Say Yes To YOU” Programs being launched this week and because it’s a short week something had to give so my apologies for not writing last week and for the few words this week. What I do want to say is please remember the Law of Cause and Effect. Your life is created by the way you think, the actions you take and the Attitude you have. Take responsibility if something happens that is caused by you. Don’t get defensive or angry, own up and own... Read Full Story

Last Sunday my daughter and I took ourselves to see this very much touted movie. What came across loud and clear in both the TV series and the movie was the story about 4 friends who stuck together through thick and thin and that part of the story was lovely and how all friendships need to be.   If only the story had been more about that it would probably have been very enjoyable. Unfortunately, although there were a couple of laughs, not only was it long and rather boring there were a few... Read Full Story

Having spent 4 days exhibiting my best selling book at Book Expo. America it’s been a very interesting, energizing yet exhausting couple of weeks which is also the reason there was no copy for the blog last week. The one thing that came across very clearly from talking to the dozens of people who stopped at the booth, is that women are still not totally OK with making themselves number One. Sometimes when I first start working with clients, they find it very strange to think about putting... Read Full Story

I hope everyone had a really super Memorial day weekend. I don’t know what it’s like in your part of the country/world, however for all the fact that everyone here in the US is complaining about the cost of gas being more than $4 a gallon, there were cars galore on the freeway. Although it may seem not at times, we really do have things great here in the US. As with everything else it’s about perception. Yes, gas has gone up, however in Europe they are paying the equivalent of $8 a gallon and... Read Full Story
