Look here for tips from my blog for individuals wanting more from their careers or to take your career to the next level.

ME time!

A common concern or complaint that I hear from my clients is – “I don’t have time for ME!”  This is pretty common and it can cause some bad side effects such as resentment, guilt, grumpiness, negativity and lack of energy.  I’ve even seen that this is a badge of negative honor in some and translates to a martyr cry about how they put everyone else’s needs before their own.  BORING!

Need more confidence?

The next three blogs are repeats of my first three blogs that I posted a year ago.  I didn’t have many readers when I first started.  I hope you’ll enjoy them as much as I enjoyed writing them.

Have you ever wanted to have more confidence or come across more confidently?  But you don’t want to be arrogant or cocky.

First – you will not come across arrogant or cocky.  Believe me, if you’re even concerned about that, you’re already hard wired that you won’t.  Arrogant people aren’t concerned about coming across… Continue reading
