Don't feel bad about feeling bad

On Tuesday of this week I had a bad training run. I was to run 5 miles of my run just slightly faster than race pace – the pace I want to run in the half marathon I’m registered for next weekend. I didn’t do it. I couldn’t do it. I started getting WAY tired 2 and a half miles into it. Well…I completely freaked out. I started believing that I couldn’t run the pace I wanted in the race. I started thinking that all my training was for nothing…why was I running all these miles, if I couldn’t step up and do what I wanted in a race? I questioned the point of it all. I got to thinking I’d never reach my goals. I was upset. I was frustrated. I could also see that I was over-reacting. I rationally knew that it was just one training run. There [...]

Do you need to just “get over yourself”?

In Tiara (a global women’s leadership and development company), we have been talking about True Leadership.  What it means to be a Leader in your life, how do you produce results – EASILY, and how you create leverage so your circle of influence is ever expanding?  These are such incredibly powerful questions and inquiries.  To me, I don’t care who you are, or what your job title is . . .  this sounds like a very powerful place to stand as you “own” being the leader in your own life.   So far this year, we have conducted two excellent Tiara 4-week TeleClass Workshops (we call them TeleSeries).  Whenever we launch a new event, I must admit, I do get some butterflies in my stomach, and some limited beliefs start to roam the corners of my mind.  Things like:  is this valuable to women?, what if we screw this up?, [...]

How do you think focus affects your results?

We believe results can be accomplished with less effort and more ease through focus and alignment. Take this simple test and see for yourself: Think of a time when you were struggling to get a specific result. It might have been a new job, a financial goal, or a health target. What were you thinking about at the time? Were you focused on something positive? Or were you focused on your fears, worries and concerns? Now think of a time when things simply worked or flowed for you. Maybe you were driving in traffic and got all green lights, you fell in love at first sight, or you got that promotion. What were you thinking about at the time? Were you focused on something positive? Or were you focused on fears, worries, and concerns? We have a lot more to do with the results that occur than we think. Most [...]

Reading the Signs

Typically when I want something, I want it now. Or I want to at least have an idea of how I’m going to accomplish it. This often looks like a To Do List or a plan of some kind. This can be quite effective, getting me in action, generating creative energy. Yet there are times when I want something that seems elusive, impossible, or far away. In those instances, it’s still important to keep focusing on the path, the progress, and the signs that I’m getting closer to what I desire during the journey toward that vision. For example, I have this deep sense that I’m meant to live in a beautiful, extraordinarily designed home with a magnificent view out of my bedroom window. There are dogs sleeping at my feet, hiking trails out my door, and a joyful existence doing what I love in like-spirited community. It feels so [...]

Whew!!! So Glad I Made That Flight!

This past week I made a business trip to Boston from Chicago. My flight departed Chicago at 6:30 am and was uneventful, just the way I like flights to go. The client meeting was in the financial district in Boston,a short distance from Logan Airport. I spent the day with the client. At lunch, my client asked what time my return flight would depart. According to the calendar on my phone, the flight departed at 5:38 pm. We decided that I should get a taxi by 4 pm to allow plenty of time, with rush hour traffic, to arrive at the airport by 4:30 pm. Since I didn’t have any bags to check and already had my boarding pass, I expected to make it through security quickly. We wrapped up our meeting early, so I was able to find a taxi and be on my way to the airport by 3:35 [...]
