Loving Every Phenomenal Part of You
by Deborah L. Shipley

Have you ever wished yourself away? I am not referring to leaving your precious life on this Earth; but rather, just wished you weren�t a certain way or did not have some particular qualities and mannerisms that were so apparent to you. I know I have. In the past, I�ve had a very difficult time when others would point out my weaknesses to me, either constructively or not-so tactfully. I would think, � Wow, not only do I think these are big problems I have, but now everyone else sees ...

Corporate Coaching and Employees: One Step Ahead
by CMOE Development Team

Don’t shoot…. We’re on the same side.” Contrary to popular belief, a corporate coaching session with your employees is not the beginning of the change process. Our studies and consulting indicate that, 90% of the time, employees already have a clue that a problem or challenge is on the horizon. Furthermore, some employees have already resolved to take action and correct an existing problem or prevent or minimize impending problems. This start of pre-existing readiness is called the employee ...

The College Student’s Guide for EASY WEIGHT LOSS!
by Diana Keuilian

Weight loss is a hot topic among college students today, especially considering the fact that most college freshmen gain half a pound every week! Since the schedule of college students is almost always hectic, weight loss efforts are not a priority. With so little extra time it is impractical to join the latest diet fad or commit to sweating in the gym for hours at a time. Are all college students destined to grow outward with each passing year, or is there a simple way for them to reclaim a hea ...

The Untold Truth About Mentors, and Why You DON'T Need
by David Riklan

The Untold Truth About Mentors, and Why You DON'T Need “ONE” - by David Riklan I think there is a misconception about what a mentor truly is. A mentor is someone who guides you, someone wise, someone you trust. A mentor can be your confidant, advisor, coach, or even your role model. Many people swear by their mentors and frequently credit them with much of their success. Yet you do not have to choose just one! The mentor-protégé bond is certainly a special one, but this does not ...

Beyond Management Coaching: When Things Are Getting Out of Control
by CMOE Development Team

Leaders and Managers often ask us, ‘What do you do when you have tried to coach and counsel an employee about a performance concern and the employee has not responded? Unfortunately, we see far too many cases where the leader hasn’t, in good faith, tried to coach the employee or to put the leader’s concerns into words. Often, leaders look for a quick fix alternative to what is perceived as a difficult and painful confrontation. We have also learned from first-hand experience that mana ...

What Web Are You Weaving?
by Keith Varnum

The earth does not belong to man. Man belongs to the earth. All things are connected like the blood that unites one family. Man did not weave the web of life. He is merely a strand in it. Whatever he does to the web he does to himself. - Native American Wisdom In Native American lore, the spirit medicine of the spider is to remind us that we are the source of our life adventures. The spider’s message is that we are the weavers of our own web of life experiences. We are the creator o ...

Executive Coaching
by CMOE Development Team

The higher you climb the ladder in this organization, the less chance you have of getting feedback about your performance, The working rule of thumb is “the farther up you go, the stranger things get,” especially in the way you are reviewed and rewarded. We seem to have time for everything else, but not time to give our top people the kind of reviews they need to help them develop. - Executive level controller. Why We Need Executive Coaching Today, executives by the nature of their wo ...

Texas Holdem Tournament Strategy - Winning vs. Aggressive Players
by Rick Braddy

The Texas Hold’em poker phenomenon has taken the country by storm. There are reportedly over 100 million active poker players worldwide. Poker’s popularity is largely the byproduct of technology and several recent trends: 1) online gaming, where players engage and socialize in real-time over the Internet, and 2) the broad publicity created by high profile TV shows like the World Series of Poker and World Poker Tour. With all the poker-mania, there’s an amazing shortage of qual ...

‘How to save the world’ is an example of an individual person’s blog that could open people’s eyes, minds, and hearts
by Jesse S. Somer

Recently I have been having a look at a list of blogs that a colleague gave me, all of which have links to RSS feeds. This means if you download RSS software off the Internet you can automatically receive new posts in your Reader from the blogs that you subscribe to. Most subscriptions are free to read, as people generally would basically like to communicate and share their ideas with others. The particular list that I have is focused on blogs that ranked highly in both Google’s page ranking and ...

Simple water could be showing us that our thoughts are interconnected with Nature
by Jesse S. Somer

These words that I am thinking and then writing right now are affecting the world. I’m not an omnipotent power by any means, but my thoughts and feelings are alive, and when expressed they change the patterns of the objects around them. Sounds crazy doesn’t it? Check out these web articles about Dr. Masaru Emoto, a Japanese scientist who studies the effects of thoughts, speech, and music, on water: www.spiritofmaat.com/archive/aug1/consciouswater.html, www.spiritofmaat.com/archive/nov1/cwater.ht ...

Jesus Christ: one can reach god only through him... Is this statement correct?
by Vijay Kumar

Jesus Christ: one can reach god only through him... Is this statement correct? Catch the express or the super fast bullet train. If we are able to reach our goal the purpose is served. Talk of Jesus Christ, Mahavira, Gautama Buddha or Prophet Mohammed... all reached the goal they had established in their life. The goal of all (including Jesus Christ) was the same... only the paths were different. Mahavira, Gautama Buddha, Jesus Christ or Prophet Mohammed... all wanted to have one-to-one ...

Leather Care
by Jake Berlin

Leather Care When buying leather, the best thing you can do is ask the people who you buy it from, what the manufacturer recommends for leather care and cleaning. Don't forget to ask what other products may work well for leather care too, as there may be something you're more comfortable using. Also ask what the product does to and for the leather. While still alive, leather on the animal, fish, or fowl is maintained in situ. (It's their skin) The oils that keep leather conditioned and ...

Avatar - the concept of avaatar in Hinduism (manifest God)... does it hold good?
by Vijay Kumar

Avatar - the concept of Avaatar in Hinduism (manifest God)... does it hold good? From times immemorial it has been a standard practice in Hinduism to accept the existence of Avatar. But who is an Avatar... is Avatar manifest God himself or a human being who assumes significant spiritual powers that the humanity starts considering one an Avatar. In the present Kali Yuga everyone is awaiting with abated breath the advent of the Avatar of the era... the coming of Bhagwan Kalki. It is conside ...

Joy Is the Juice
by Keith Varnum

“If you work for money, you are no better than a slave. If you do anything you don’t enjoy in life, you are no better than a slave!” Wow! Strong words from my first spiritual teacher. Michio Kushi was my adopted second father, so his pronouncement hit home. When he first expressed his view, I was upset. When he repeated his perspective at every opportunity, I got angry. Angrier and angrier each time he shared. Anger Reveals the Truth Because my upset was distancing me from my beloved me ...

Life’s an Illusion
by Gene Simmons

I’ll get right to the point. Life is not necessarily what we think it is. And no, I’m not going to extrapolate this to the extreme to try to convince you that we really exist on some obscure planet in a distant spiral galaxy and that all of this we’re experiencing as “Life” is only a dream. Of course, it is kind of cool to think that we could waking up any time now, wandering out to the kptfrun to put on the cuggy and then stepping out on the prafo to watch the bos rise and enjoy the sounds o ...

Use Your Time More Efficiently
by Troy Pentico

There are things in life, which, in case we loose or damage, we can always gain, buy or obtain them back. Time is not one of them. Once it is gone, there is no way to get it back! Anyway, if you realize that a certain period of your life was less productive or was lost in a way or another, there is no point in crying over spilt milk – there is definitely nothing you can do about it, but learning from your own mistakes. Take the time and meditate on why you feel that period of time was not pro ...

Contemplation
by Nikhil Gangoli

One of the aids to meditation is Contemplation. Osho Rajneesh in one of his books tells the story of contemplation regarding the Buddha. It is a famous story and very meaningful. The Buddha was born a prince and he was so brought up that he had no conception of the suffering that exists in this world. His father arranged it so that he should not know that in life people fall sick, that they grow and old and that they die. The father wanted the Buddha to never meet anybody old or ...

You were about to leave a place of mental and emotional safety. You were putting your skills on the line and taking a risk. If you were successful, there could be great reward.

Making Communication Effective: 4 Language Filters
by Steve Brunkhorst

Language is a challenging way to communicate. It allows us to share our thoughts and feelings by describing our personal views of reality. Yet language is not reality. It is merely a limited system of symbols, signals, sounds, or gestures that belong to a specific culture or group. It only describes a personal map of the actual territory. We might have a great message to share. Yet there are other important factors to consider if we want to make our communication effective. In addition to ...

Past Life: Wanting to know who I was in my past life?
by Vijay Kumar

Past Life: Wanting to know who I was in my Past Life? Before we tread into the domain of Past Life... we need to understand the present and the future carefully. Before indulging in our Past Life we also need to know the purpose of life journey as a whole. Starting from the beginning... in the chronological order as the evolution took place... we shall find that we started the journey as an Amoeba (single cell formation)... this was the first manifestation which occurred in the life of ev ...

Adult Continuing Education is Healthy for You
by Ian McAllister

Adult continuing education is very practical. Seniors have several advantages over children. * Better memory (truly!) * Experience * Fewer distractions ------------- Better memory ------------- Doctors thought that you couldn't grow new brain cells, so as old cells died you became more stupid. They now know that the more adult continuing education, the more new brain cells you get. You can even delay Alzheimer's disease by keeping your brain active. But old people keep forgetting ...

Improve Your Image at Work
by Race Kale

The image we have at the place we work or, in other words, what people we work with think about us, is always important for each and every one of us. It sometimes happens that you’re very close to a promotion and you’re wondering how to prove that you’re better than your hard-working colleague; or maybe you realized you would like to get along better with the persons you meet at work everyday. In any of these cases, as well as in others, an improvement of your image can only have positive result ...

CONTEMPLATING CHANGE AND MOVING INTO ACTION
by Dr. Annette Colby, RD

Do you ever have the sense that there has to be more to life than what you are presently experiencing? Those are the moments in time where you become consciously aware of your problems, and awaken to the possibility that change could occur. Perhaps you’ve noticed yourself seriously considering making some changes surrounding your food habits or your weight.
