1) What's Stopping You From Unveiling Your Dharma?
Author: Angel Quintana
Category: Self Improvement
When I went on my Italian vacation this time last year, I was on a reading frenzy. I literally couldn't get enough information jam packed into my head. Even though I had brought two books on my trip, I managed to finish both. By the time I was ready to board the flight back to the United States, I popped into a bookstore at the London airport (we had a layover there--by the way, surprisingly really delicious and healthy restaurant there called Giraffe!) to pick out another book for th...

Have you ever drag yourself to do the task you hate doing? Wishing someone else would have done it for you? The laundry, the house cleaning, the ironing, the cooking... The list could go on and on. These are the chores that you have to live with, like it or not.I use to hate doing them too. Sometimes I procrastinate, which only makes me more suffer. The more you delay it the more you prolong the dreadful feelings. Just do it and get it over as soon as possible. But then, tomorrow it s...

4) For People Over 50, Life Is A Gift
Author: George H Schofield
Category: Self Improvement
When the world still thought women couldn't run businesses and men couldn't parent alone, I became a single parent. My sons were both younger than 8. All these years later, I realize that for people over 50, life is a gift.While my sons grew up to become men, I learned how to be a mom, a dad, an adult child, a business leader, and a serial entrepreneur. I also learned the roles, behaviors, and stories for all the other things that I was "doing" in my life.There was so mu...
5) Types of Sounds Boost Energy
Author: Edward W Reed II
Category: Self Improvement
Not surprised that researchers have found that listening to the correct types of sounds, songs, and noise can be the key success to a happier life. The experts feel that different types of noise, such as music, waves of the ocean, water falling over rocks, fire crackling, and birds chirping can actually make a person smarter, stronger and even change someone's outlook of life. It plays to the inner most self-relaxing nerves and fibers of the soul. People have a lot on their plates today and...
6) Going INward, Going Deeper
Author: Jenenne Macklin
Category: Self Improvement
Living in joy, having peace of mind, money, health, employment, love, romance, wholeness, healing and worth are all available to each of us. Especially when the perception of ourselves is large enough to embody all these states of being.Far too often your energy is sucked up by fear, stress, worry, feeling inadequate, past drama, resisting challenging, questioning if you're enough, self-doubt, pain and searching for love. This is a small self-perception that is accessible from living...
7) Have You Been Cornered In A Negotiation: What to Do?
Author: Jappreet S
Category: Self Improvement
Negotiation is a bit like See- Saw, it assumes that a point of balance will be found even though the participants may start at the opposite ends of the scale. Both the parties will settle for something which they relate to be a good deal. The concept of range and possibilities is very important, the balance may not be at the center, and ranges of solutions are possible around the midpoint.In the process of finding this balance sometimes the other party may corner you and you may feel...
8) Enlightenment: The Easy Way
Author: Jeffrey A Pierce
Category: Self Improvement
One of the charges that we are given with some regularity on a spiritual path is that we need to be present. I don't know about you, but when I first heard the concept I thought it was equal parts hyper-attuned ninja soaking in every detail like a human radar and Zen master who somehow absorbed all that stimuli and simply let it flow by without a second thought.After countless years of meditation, alternating between clearing my mind, attempting to levitate, and trying to see beyond T...
9) Retirement Isn't What It Used To Be
Author: George H Schofield
Category: Self Improvement
Welcome to the new world of planning, choices, extended vitality, two career couples, need for activity, and the importance of meaning in our lives. At least as many Americans are flunking retirement as are succeeding at it.As long as we use the word "Retirement" to capture our later lives, we're permanently harnessed to Working or Not Working as the core of who we are and how we think of ourselves and others. Retirement is probably a term whose time has gone.To work or not to...
10) Life Does Not Have to Be Boring - Play the Game of Life Full-Out
Author: Clay Nelson
Category: Self Improvement
Do you remember as a kid lying in bed the night before you were leaving on your summer vacation? Your suitcase is packed, the car is gassed up or the airplane tickets have been purchased. You have the all important snacks selected and tucked in your back pack and your DVD player or iPod is all charged up. (Although depending upon how old you are, it may have been making sure your Walkman had batteries or your "sign game" skills have been brushed off.) In just 8 hours you are hitting the road...
11) Focus On That Which You Want!
Author: Sally J Anderson
Category: Self Improvement
It amazes me in a given day as a coach the amount of conversations I facilitate regarding the level of confusion people have about why their lives are showing up the way it is! People fundamentally do not realize that they are the creator of their reality, period! What you focus on, on a daily basis, will be directly proportional to what you get back.Take personal relationships for example. Doesn't take a rocket scientist that if you continue to make your partner wrong, you will find...
12) How to Tell the Difference Between Your Goal and Your Purpose
Author: Dr. Neil Whitehouse
Category: Self Improvement
There is absolutely no reason why we cannot set our goals which one would like to achieve over a certain period of time. There are really two types of goals that we can inspire after. The first for example we can set a goal to save to buy a car or maybe we would like to go overseas for a holiday within the next year or two, which would inspire us to save our money in order to fulfill that objective or goal so to speak. This is very beneficial to our personal characteristics as it teaches us...
13) How Do You Overcome Humiliation?
Author: Steve Wickham
Category: Self Improvement
This article discusses everyday humiliation everyone faces. Humiliation caused by abuse and neglect is another matter entirely; this latter humiliation cannot be attended to by this article.Of all human experience, humiliation is one we perhaps most avoid. It has pangs of pungent shame about it, contorting us toward destruction. When we think about humiliation we easily connect it with Jesus' last hours, when he was betrayed, tried unjustly, scourged, insulted, and finally cruc...

Author: Manikant DVSS
Category: Self Improvement
CAN SIGNATURES REVEAL PERSONALITY?The most important thing you can write is your signature. Of all aspects of your handwriting, it is your signature that reveals most about your personality; the way your signature is formed, the size, pressure and slant, are all indications of your ego, and show how you feel about your place in society as a whole. Whether you are shy and reserved or outgoing and socially minded, egotistical or inclined to be inhibited, the way you wri...
15) Becoming the Fully Functioning Person
Author: Steve Wickham
Category: Self Improvement
This process of the good life is not, I am convinced, a life for the faint-hearted. It involves the stretching and growing of becoming more and more of one's potentialities. It involves the courage to be. It means launching oneself fully into the stream of life. ~Carl Rogers (1961)The process of living the full life, where total functionality becomes us, is no place for shrinking; where we will, as a matter of course, shrink from time to time...

18) Why Getting in Shape Before Doomsday Is Extremely Important
Author: Judah Hamilton
Category: Self Improvement
Have you ever watched that show on National Geographic, "Doomsday Preppers". It is a show about real life people who are preparing to survive the apocalypse. Survival experts rate their preparations and they are given a score based on how likely they are to survive. If you have ever seen this show, you know that a great deal of these "preppers" as they are called, are completely overweight and in absolutely horrendous physical condition. This begs the question, how do these people expect to...
19) Articulated Thought
Author: Michael Cornwall
Category: Self Improvement
No one benefits more from the talking cures I use with my clients than I do. Although I practice exclusively from an emotional intelligence, bio-psychosocial model of intervention, there is never (at least from my perspective) a dull moment. I am liable to say anything, if I believe what I do and say will result in moving the client into a saner frame of mind. (Besides, I depend on in vivo exposure in therapy to make experiences and their related cognitions a bit more immediate.) My spontane...
20) Emotionally Intelligent People
Author: Michael Cornwall
Category: Self Improvement
Emotional wellness can be described as a self-determined appraisal of one's own psychological well-being. Emotional intelligence theory depends on this definition for its core philosophy. Emotionally intelligent people do not and cannot hinge their personal value and their emotional decision-making on how others define normal, usual and customary - at least to the extent that those external sources outweigh one's own best judgment.Most of us are raised to believe that our emotions, ou...
