The Universe

September 30th, 2006 Comments off

When you’re in solitary confinement and you’re six feet under without light, sound, or running water, there is no place to go but inside. And when you go inside, you discover that everything that exists in the Universe is also within you…Rubin “Hurricane” Carter

Coaching Tip #202

September 30th, 2006 Comments off

Spend all your time and energy focusing on what you want.

In a safe driving course in which I participated, I was taught to observe the horizon when wanting to avoid hitting a target. If I looked at the bumber bar of the car that I did not want to hit then I’d be certain to hit it. Looking beyond the target would allow for my peripheral vision to take care of the situation. Similarly when aiming for specific goals, look beyond your goal at an expanded vision and provide your sub-conscious some room to manouvre.

Coaching Road-Side Service!

September 30th, 2006 Comments off


Have you ever wanted to call for a life-coach in those moments when you simply wanted an unbiased and empowered viewpoint to put something in perspective for yourself?

This is just such a service..

For a low payment you will be directed to a link enabling you to ask me a question, about any topic. If I feel that I cannot provide you with feedback to that value, I will immediately refund your payment.

My personal response will come to your inbox within 48-hours, sometimes within the hour.

The cost of this service will increase gradually, based on increased number of users. This ensures that I continue to provide focused attention to each person asking for my time at the link. Fully use this service while I’m still practically giving my time away for this crazy fee.

You can use this live, personalised service of mine time and time again.

Why not seriously examine your life?

September 30th, 2006 Comments off

Probably you might have allowed someone else to do your thinking and run your life. You could have also concentrated more on your problems and difficulties and instead of challenging them, gave in and quit finding for solutions.
You may have lived a life without goals and dreams and let yourself go with the flow. You could even have waited and hoped that someone might come along and help you get out of the rut.
You may have focused on the negative and failed to find the positive in things. You are not even aware of what gives you pleasure and do not know how to turn your pain around.
You have allowed your “autopilot” to direct your thoughts, actions and dialogues. You don’t know how you got into your state of depression or anger but responded as you always have, to someone or something that triggered it.
You are an expert at flashing out pictures of past mistakes and hurts in your head but do not know how to tune in fond and pleasant memories. You keep hearing voices inside telling you what you should do and how you should behave but have not even pondered on whose voice or where it came from.
You are afraid to ask for what you want and refuse to learn from your experiences and from others. You stick around with the same people who drain your energy and make you feel miserable because of your fear of feeling alone and lost. You don’t make new friends because you are afraid of being rejected.
How and what would you change your experiences?

The Invitation

September 30th, 2006 Comments off

It doesn’t interest me what you do for a living.
I want to know what you ache for
and if you dare to dream of meeting your heart’s longing.

It doesn’t interest me how old you are.
I want to know if you will risk looking like a fool
for love
for your dream
for the adventure of being alive.

It doesn’t interest me what planets are squaring your moon…
I want to know if you have touched the centre of your own sorrow
if you have been opened by life’s betrayals
or have become shrivelled and closed
from fear of further pain.

I want to know if you can sit with pain
mine or your own
without moving to hide it
or fade it
or fix it.

I want to know if you can be with joy
mine or your own
if you can dance with wildness
and let the ecstasy fill you to the tips of your fingers and toes
without cautioning us to
be careful
be realistic
remember the limitations of being human.

It doesn’t interest me if the story you are telling me
is true.
I want to know if you can
disappoint another
to be true to yourself.
If you can bear the accusation of betrayal
and not betray your own soul.
If you can be faithless
and therefore trustworthy.

I want to know if you can see Beauty
even when it is not pretty
every day.
And if you can source your own life
from its presence.

I want to know if you can live with failure
yours and mine
and still stand at the edge of the lake
and shout to the silver of the full moon,
“Yes.”

It doesn’t interest me
to know where you live or how much money you have.
I want to know if you can get up
after the night of grief and despair
weary and bruised to the bone
and do what needs to be done
to feed the children.

It doesn’t interest me who you know
or how you came to be here.
I want to know if you will stand
in the centre of the fire
with me
and not shrink back.

It doesn’t interest me where or what or with whom
you have studied.
I want to know what sustains you
from the inside
when all else falls away.

I want to know if you can be alone
with yourself
and if you truly like the company you keep
in the empty moments.
