Just Ask the Damn Question

Life Coach asking for help

Shortly after I moved to the US in early 2006 I bought a copy of the bestseller ‘The Why Cafe’ by John P Strelecky.

I forget now what question prompted me to e-mail the author, but e-mail him I did and asked for some feedback.

I was shocked when the reply came back within an hour suggesting we meet up for breakfast the following week.

I’d no idea that John lived literally less than

Excuses, Birthdays And Lots Of Free Stuff

Life coach blowing out candles

I was talking with a Life Coaching client yesterday about some tasks we had put in place the previous week.

On the whole he had nailed them and done a fantastic job of being 100% committed.

Except that is for one thing. Of five things he committed to do, sadly, one remained unfinished.

Whereas he wasn’t about to slash his wrists in annoyance, he was a little disappointed in himself and looked extremely sheepish.

Help Others And Earn Cash!

Santa reading book on Life Coaching

Everybody knows it’s not good business form to tell people when things aren’t going as well as you would like because you can look like a real whiner.

It’s much better to retain a stiff upper lip and when asked how things are to say;

“Couldn’t be better”

Well let me break with convention for a moment and imagine you have just asked me how the project to give 1,000,000 copies of How To

If At First You Don’t Succeed – Get Help!

I am going to keep this post very short and sweet as it’s a way for me to thank some wonderful people in public.

It’s also an opportunity to tell you about something really exciting that is happening with How To Be Rich and Happy and a very special offer.

Our project to giveaway 1,000,000 copies of How To Be Rich and Happy started to stall somewhat at the beginning of this year. We

What’s Your Drug Of Choice?

One of the things I hear from clients over and over again is their desire to ‘make a difference’ in other peoples lives.

I’d go as far as to say that over three quarters of the people that hire me to be their Life Coach express this desire in some way, shape, or form.

It may manifest as values such as significance, connection or wanting to leave a legacy, but at its core is

Being A Failure Is The Best Thing You Could Do With Your Life

I had planned on giving you my first Primal/Paleo update today, but as I’m only on day 4 and no significant changes or murderous rampages to report, I thought it may be better to wait until after the weekend and I’ve had a full week to see how things are.

Not only that, but I have been really busy with How To Be Rich and Happy stuff. We had our first major breakthrough this

Forget the Title, Just Build Something

Today we have a guest post from the very talented Mike Tekula, that man that inspired the post ‘Your Niche Is You’ from a few weeks ago.

On first read it may seem somewhat unrelated to self development, but I think there is an underlying message not dissimilar to the ‘Just do it’ approach beloved by so many people.

Before we get on to that I wanted to offer massive thanks to all of

What’s A Free Copy of How To Be Rich and Happy Worth?

I wrote a post last week for the How To Be Rich and Happy site called ‘Pay It Forward’. It was inspired by the actions of GM Baker who after reading her copy of How To Be Rich and Happy then wrote a message inside the cover saying:

“If you find this book, the it is meant for you. When it changes your life, like it did mine, please pass it on” – GM
