Hold onto Reason this Holiday Season - Guest Author Beth Blanco

The holidays are emotional times. We want to create Christmas magic, especially for our kids. They can also be times of great stress because many people spend money they don't have.

Don’t worry- I want you to love your life; but not at the expense of digging such a hole you could never get out of. So, the first thing I want you to do is to

Develop Your Self-esteem

Esteem is a simple word. It is worth and value that we apply to people, places, and situations. We have esteem when a professional puts in an exemplary performance whether it is in sports, acting, or simply doing the right thing. But the most important place we need to apply esteem is within ourselves. We must maintain our self-esteem to place value on ourselves as a worthy individual in the world. Self-esteem affects every single part of our lives creating a miserable pl

Good Self, Bad Self

Do you walk your talk? Most of us like to think that we mean what we say and say what we mean. Then why do we keep saying we will quit doing this, or start doing that, and we find we keep on doing the same old things? Most New Year's resolutions end up abandoned shortly after they were made. We are not liars. We are sincere at the time. But soon or later, we find ourselves faced with conflicting emotions, convictions, and real actions. Most of the time we kid ourselves with a

Say Goodbye to the Impostor Syndrome!

Do you feel like a fraud in danger of being exposed when someone praises your work? Do you think your achievements are just a matter of luck? If so, you may be experiencing Imposter syndrome. That's the term psychologists invented in the 1970s when they were studying successful women. Now, they know that men are just as likely to be affected. In fact, an estimated 70% of adults experience the symptoms at least occasionally. You may be especially vulnerable when you're trying

Gratitude: 10 Practical Steps

Do you get up in the morning determined to have a good day and before you know it, you find yourself feeling overwhelmed, stressed out, and that you can't wait for the day to be over so you can rest? Do you feel like you are existing from day to day rather than living a life of joy? Do you ever ask yourself, "Is this all there is, and if it is, do I want it?" If so, you are not alone. Thousands of people just like you are asking these same questions. These are the people

Five Ways To Regain Your Lost Self-Confidence

Nobody can hurt you without your consent. There are many instances in life where your confidence is hit hard. Sometimes you overcome life's hardness, sometimes you get overwhelmed. Sometimes your courage and confidence sees you through, but sometimes your self-confidence gets a beating. However, the point here to remember is that "nobody can hurt you without your consent." The problem is not as important as the impact it had on you, rather the impact that you let the problem

Facing Your Fear

"Fear is part of being on your growing edge." I'm not certain where this statement comes from. I'd like to take credit for it, but I think someone much wiser than I am said this. Most people consider fear an emotion to be avoided at all costs. Here, it is considered an indication of change and growth. Could that really be? Let's break this statement down and see if it is true. FEAR Every human, and at least higher forms of all organisms, have felt fear. It is an innate feelin

Emotional Baggage

We all have them. It has many faces. We carry them around us, We store them in the remotest part of our brain, in the deepest chambers of our hearts. We have them in our extensive database of memories. Some are so close to the heart, it brings out tears at the slightest provocation. Others may feel anger, very deep resentments, and may exhibit anti-social or antagonistic behaviors. Shadows follow and haunt many, in their dreams or waking hours, in unlikely places, unexpected

The Temptation Of The Critical Voice

Each of us has an inner critic. There is no way to grow up in our society without having developed this inner critical voice which comes from parents, teachers, peers, the media, and from our own conclusions. The problem is that this inner critic sounds like a voice of authority when in reality it doesnít know what it is talking about. It is a voice-based on beliefs that have been handed down through generations but that have no basis in fact. How often has this voice said to

Create More Romance In Your Life

Ah, romance, that wonderful and exciting feeling, that most glorious intertwining of two hearts. So intense, such a high, but so fleeting, and so often for so many once gone never to return. But does it have to be that way? Can we intentionally create and sustain more romance in our lives? Most folks profess to want more romance in their lives. Indeed, for some, romance is a goal unto itself, or at least high on the list of goals for their love relationships. But if havin

The Power of Thought

Look around you. Perhaps you see a chair. This chair is real and exists in time and space. Yet before it came into being, it first existed as a thought. In fact, everything in the room existed as a thought at some point in someone's mind. Who you are today and the reality you have created is a result of your thoughts - your thoughts about what is possible and what's not. These thoughts are influenced by your spirituality ñ your purpose - who you see yourself being, and your b

NLP: Your Pathway to Personal Success

As a certified NLP trainer, I am often asked, "What is NLP?" The term NLP stands for neuro-linguistic programming and was coined in the early seventies by John Grinder, an assistant professor of linguistics at the University of California, Santa Cruz, and Richard Bandler, a student of psychology at the university. They began their work by studying Fritz Perls, a psychotherapist and originator of the Gestalt school of therapy, Virginia Satir, a well-known family therapist and

Developing An Attitude Of Gratitude

What does Gratitude really mean? Most of us are thankful for the blessings we have in our lives. We have families we love, jobs that help us provide the necessities of daily living, good health, friends to laugh and play with, freedom, and Free Will to live our lives the way we want to. Most of us are very grateful for these blessings, but how often do we stop to focus and reflect on that? Probably not as often as we should. Why is Gratitude even important? Sure, we're thankf

Awaken The Leader In You: 10 Easy Steps To Developing Your Leadership Skills

"The miracle power that elevates the few is to be found in their industry, application, and perseverance, under the promptings of a brave determined spirit." - Mark Twain Many motivational experts like to say that leaders are made, not born. I would argue the exact opposite. I believe we are all natural-born leaders but have been deprogrammed along the way. As children, we were natural leaders - curious and humble, always hungry and thirsty for knowledge, with an incredibly v

Create Your Own Destiny

We are constantly imitating others. When we copy other people, we can’t reproduce their charisma, talent or success. Externally, we can imitate their life, their way of dressing and drive the same kind of car, but this does not bring us fulfillment. We can take someone else's life as an example, but we must think hard before we follow them. Look at the virtues of others and ask yourself: “I have something valuable and worthwhile myself? How can I bring it out?” When you no
