The late Thomas Leonard, grandfather of modern coaching said "Life is about us, and it's not personal...And yet it can feel so personal." We are self-obsessed creatures, with complex psychological perceptive mechanisms that are virtually incapable of taking in...
Do you want to be loved for who you really are? The good, the bad and the ugly? Loved unconditionally? There is no-one in the world in a better position to provide that love to you than you. No-one knows you as well as you. No-one spends more time with you than...
Actions (goals) are individual creations that build upon themselves. Often, as you incrementally move towards your goal, you incrementally increase your belief that the desired outcome is actually true. You are building the goal belief by belief. How many...
First I'm going to qualify this by saying at at a wider level I don't believe in positive and negative, that's sort of like saying I believe in east and west and consider them different things, but we can use the positive/negative concept in order to understand and...
Look to this day! For it is life, the very life of life. In its brief course Lie all the verities and realities of your existence: The bliss of growth The glory of action The splendor of beauty For yesterday is but a dream And tomorrow only a vision But today well...
Going into Avatar I had a lot of faith in James Cameron. The original Terminator has delivered for me, yes as it exists as a movie, but mostly in my mind, as a movie that is entertaining yet provides a lot to sink your teeth into, mentally, emotionally and...
I'm a big fan of things working smoothly, with as little struggle, strain and suffering as possible. Here's a recipe for just those things...Struggle, strain and suffering... Recipe for Getting Something Done: The Hard Way 1 cup of "I have to" 1 cup of "if I...

I'll be speaking at beautiful Grail Springs Saturday evening about You and Your Vision... Having a vision that will inspire you to reach all that is possible for you depends on something important...You! Knowing who you are and being that self in the world. ...
Today on EZ Rock we talked about the maybe-not-so-great (OK, we know they are not great) messages kids can get from major pop culture, movies, news, etc. New Moon is a case in point. As a parent, how do you not completely stress out that your child is going to take...
Today I'll be doing a talk with Mary Kay Independant Beauty Consultants, hosted by Lisa Dobson, nearby in Orillia, Ontario. I'll be talking about getting irresistably pulled to success. Going with the flow instead of against to make success easy.
Today on EZ Rock we talked about birthdays, getting older and all that. Look, we are physical creatures here on earth! Things are going to change! If we embrace those changes, we'll be confident in ourselves and I might add loving to ourselves. Rejecting what is,...
Today on EZ Rock we talked about the H1N1 virus, and our fears and actions around it. I think it`s important to get centered, do the research yourself, and decide what is appropriate and sensible for your family, and follow-through on that. But then, let it...
Today on EZ Rock we talked about the whole David Letterman thing, and I said "truth makes you bulletproof", and it is so true! If you've got a secret that *you* feel bad about, you've got a magnet for drama. If you've come to personal acceptance AND are willing to...

"Thinking is a psychological disease: A madness now infecting just about everyone. It is the cause of worry, and all unhappiness." Barry Long Do yourself a favor, stop thinking, right now: The blessing of this audio from Barry Long (by the way, did you know...
When I first considered getting involved in coaching, back in the late 90's, the first thing I did was arrange to meet some coaches. The coaches I met made me sure that this was a career choice I wanted to make. Â The coaches were centered, down-to-earth, wise but...
It is a very common scenario (sadly): Two people have been through a similar or shared trauma, and one is further ahead in healing than the other. For simplicity's sake (and, because this is often how it looks), let's a say we have a male-female couple, wherein the...
Some of my clients fear that if they use this as a measure for success they will do less than they are capable of. Success is liking yourself, liking what you do, and liking how you do it. ~Maya Angelou So, maybe you can use this strategy just until...
