You are not alone! I've experienced all of the above and more, but you don't have to. Begin re-discovering new you - confident, determined, focused, and ready to overcome any obstacle and fear on your path while pursuing your goals and lifetime dreams, no matter what! Remember, fear of failure begins and ends in your mind!
What's In It For You?
Are you someone who is willing and ready to learn, someone who is not afraid to try, 'think outside of the box' individual, someone who is hungry for a change in your life but don't know how or where to start? Perhaps you're afraid of the unknown, afraid of change, follower of the "fit-in" culture which is preventing you to think and choose for yourself - the life that you dream about every day?
Do you know that doing the same over and over again while expecting a different result has never gotten anyone to where they want to be in life or the life that they wanted to live. All this creates is an illusion of change and nothing more while remaining in one place. Do you ever wonder how could you stop being afraid of trying something new, something that you've always wanted to pursue but was afraid of the unknown, afraid of failure and opinions or judgements of other people? Have you ever asked yourself why thinking logically often feels like a long forgotten skill? Why thinking outside the box is frown upon vs. being encouraged? Did you ever ask yourself how can you stop being so afraid of standing up for what you believe in vs. living all your life supporting everyone else's but your own dreams, goals, and expectations? |
I want you to know that we all have something unique about us, a unique set of qualities and strengths that no one but you can replicate or offer to the world. All we need to do is try, step out of our comfort zone, and stop being afraid to fail. That's right, we need to fail more, learn from it, and move on.
So, are you ready to get out of rut and begin following your true wants and aspirations you've always dreamed of? Do you want to live a happier and free from "it's always been done this way" of thinking and be the architect of your own future? or... Do you want to continue living your life in a "hamster wheel" that just keeps spinning while remaining in one place with occasional introductions of a reward for the "job well done", until you eventually come to realization that you no longer have the strength to spin the wheel? |

What does it take for one to be an effective leader? What attributes should an effective leader have in his or her leadership toolbox in order to be as effective as they can be every day, while helping and supporting others in their personal development and leadership journey?

If you ever looked for a job, you had most likely gone through at least one if not more job interviews. To most people job interview is the experience that they are not comfortable talking about unless the experience was positive and resulted in them receiving a job offer. However, in most cases people view interviews as very difficult, uncomfortable, and scary experience. Why is that the case? Why many of us view interviews a frightening experience and not something to look forward to? Shouldn’t interview experience be fun and interesting while maintaining its level of necessary complexity and challenge? You are probably thinking – How is that possible? How can interview experience be possibly fun? Well, based on my personal experience and having to go through many interviews myself as well as conducting them, I believe that interviews can be very interesting, challenging, and fun. However, in order for us to begin viewing interviews in a such way, we must take necessary and I would go even further to say required steps to prepare, in order to create an experience that we would enjoy vs. run away from.
The purpose of this book it to help you conquer your fear of an interview process and sound and look more confident and comfortable before and during an interview |

This monthly journal for kids is a thirty-one (31) day journal with carefully crafted questions to answer daily with intent to encourage thinking, daily reflection, discovery, focus, goal-setting, forward-thinking
Initially I've developed this version of kids monthly journal for my pre-teen son knowing how beneficial journaling can be for young kids, especially as they navigate fun and sometimes crazy pre-teen and teenage years. But after several week of my son using journal on the daily basis and positive feedback received from him, I wanted to provide an opportunity for kids around the world to own their own copy of this easy and fun to use journal. Journaling has many benefits, and can serve as a great tool for kids to use to express their thoughts, ideas, plans, goals, challenges, and most definitely accomplishments that they all experience growing up |
