The importance of doing what you love

Doing what you love is important in so many ways. I share my story and few tips on finding your "IT".

Is there one universal truth?

Is there one Universal truth that will work for you? Who am I? I have this knack for helping people live THEIR life. I will listen, pay attention to stories, find the areas where you are stuck, and come up with a game plan to help you take control of your life. I will be like your bestie that tells the truth and nothing but the truth and is there for you EVERY step of the way. If you don’t take the time to discover what you really want and live your life according to what you truly value – you will never be able to get rid of that restlessness and sense of feeling lost and you will always feel like something is missing.

How to get anything you want by using this one word

Research shows that you can be just a little bit more convincing and persuasive when using one magic word. Use it at work, with your spouse or anywhere in life where you want to make things go your way (in a super duper ethical way, of course).

Are you a solopreneur or entrepreneur?

Everyone wants to be their own boss, right? Wrong! I meet people daily who absolutely love and need the confines of a job or an office to be happy. Some people like the structure and following lead and some people must do their own thing. Do you know what you prefer? Unless you know what truly will make you happy, you will always flounder. Today I offer few tips to help you determine whether you are a solopreneur or 9-5er so that you can move forward crafting your life accordingly. Remember, once you have an awareness about something - it is hard to ignore it.

How to be understood by others

Let's be frank, we co-exist with others and I often found that people around me seem to think others don't "get" them. Here are my thoughts.

Losing friends and why that might be a good thing

Have you ever lost a friend, either by your own volition or theirs? Even when we decide that a certain friend is no longer someone we want to be around, we tend to feel a sense of loss. For whatever reason, we tend to make ourselves feel wrong even though we KNOW that a particular friendship is not serving us any longer. We make it mean something about us and our sense of worth. My two cents: it's part of life, it's normal (everyone goes through this), and it may end up being the best thing that happens to you. We need to end this cycle of self sabotage by making ourselves wrong for things that are bound to happen. It shouldn't define you or make you feel less.

Counterintuitive way to deal with difficult people in your life

99.9% of people make life decision based on opinion of others. That’s SCARY! Please don’t be one of them, there is a better way

Should you borrow money for personal development?

Recently, I heard someone talk about doing anything to improve yourself - to the point of borrowing money if you have to. This colleague of mine was saying that people should absolutely borrow money for coaching if they think they need it me and it made me slightly mad. Today I go into a mini rant and explain what might happen when you borrow money for coaching and I share some other helpful tips.

Case against following your passion or smart way of finding it?

Follow your passion, follow your passion, follow your passion…….hearing that can be infuriating if you feel completely stuck and are not one of those people who has always known what to do. Years ago, I remember thinking: "I could do anything if I knew what it was." I felt that I somehow didn't get the memo or have missed my train on this purpose thing and frankly, it drive me nuts. But, as life will have it, I was put in situations that would help me get there and they were not exactly desirable….. As I look back at my life, I realize that the way I found IT was by feeling completely and utterly lost. Is that the answer? It definitely has the power to be, so listen to what I have to say.
