Allow your dream to lead you
All adventures begin with intent. Your intent might be to shift a problem in your life. It might be to create change. There is always a purpose, a focus.
The clearer your vision, the more focused your energy will be for your adventure. We often move out of reaction. When you can slow down to feel what you really want, your focus becomes apparent. You may think it is to change one aspect of your life, yet after reflecting on your feelings, you begin to see there is more.
There are times when you just need to take that first step, and then you will know what you want. Movement begets awareness. Awareness begets clarity.
Alternatively, you may need to extract yourself from your chaos to slow down to feel so you really know what you want. Today in a world of high stress, we often run around reacting to whatever is occurring in the moment. We may believe we are in control of our lives, but at best, we are controlling the chaos.
Give yourself what you need to dream. Go back to your childhood and those dreams. Remember what you told yourself you wanted out of life. What do you want? Are you getting it? Dream big.
Let the images and feelings of what you want become your mandella that you focus on through your new adventure. It will change as you travel your adventure. You will learn more as you allow yourself to experience what this adventure brings you.

Can you trick yourself into changing? Others do. Milton Erickson, a dyslexic psychiatrist used his indirect hypnosis technique to trick his patients to change. He understood the power of our unconscious minds. If we believe it, then we make it true. Erickson could bypass the conscious filters to get the unconscious mind to initiate the [...]

Every so often, I get a call from a parent asking if I can help their child. They tell me how they heard I helped another parent’s child, hoping I can do the same for their child. I listen to what the parent believes is wrong. I am also listening to the restriction in the [...]

Change the Context If you’re continually focusing on changing yourself, maybe you need to change the context you operate in. Growing up with Asperger’s Syndrome and dyslexia, I learned to “cheat.” Achieving in the context I was put in often didn’t work for me, so I changed the rules. Specifically, I learned how to do [...]

What drives you or your organization? Four years ago, I started a men’s group in my town. I did it for many reasons, but mostly because I wanted one. When I started it, I knew that if we wanted to grow, we needed a goal bigger than just having a group meet once a week. [...]
