I can’t speak for you, but personally I always loved rewards. They were a kind of period on what I was doing and that what I did … excelled. But to be honest, I really don’t think it was so much what the reward was as it was the anticipation of a reward. Receiving a ‘star’ for some academic […]

Understanding yourself really begins with being honest concerning your motivations to do and to not do (fill in the blank). However, do you find that sometimes you surprise even yourself? Do you find yourself doing and saying things you never would have thought you would? Are you a conundrum…. to yourself? It really isn’t all

If you were suddenly to disappear do you think you would be missed? Would anyone care that you were no longer around? Regardless of your answer to this question – how does it make you feel? Before I ask any more questions, the reply to the first question is – yes! Yes you would be missed!

Where are you on the control continuum? Are you a total control freak or do you find yourself in the I-don’t-seem-to-ever-be-in-control category?

Unfortunately there are too many times when the person hurling the accusation, typically your supervisor, does not want to hear that they

Does that even exist? Do you believe in it… for you? Or is this only a myth, a dream? One of the delights of childhood is the ‘happily ever after’ endings to stories, but is this only for children? Don’t you, at least secretly, wish for this? When things get really difficult is when we think

How do you look? Remember that looking and seeing may not be the same. Do you see what is… or what you want to see… or potential? Three different ways of looking. What, to you, would be important to see – what would you want? And personally, if you looked at you – what would you see?
