- FINDING SECURITY IN AN INSECURE WORLD
Why am I now fearful for my children, my life, my parents, my community and my country? Is it the instability or the economy? Is it insecurity about my country going to war? Or is it something else?...
- OUR INTERNAL ALARM CLOCK
When we hear the alarm clock of fear, it is there to get our attention, wake us up to the need to become more conscious....
- CHOOSING EGO OR CHOOSING TRUE SELF
Early on, most of us unknowingly chose to identify with our beliefs, memories, and habits - our egos. We make life choices based on limited belief systems rather than the unlimited wisdom of our True Self...

TITLES
- Authority: ---PART 1---
| ---PART 2---
| ---PART 3---
Natural authority - not the authority often assigned us which fills us with the secret fear of how others will react to us...
- BEING ACCOUNTABLE
We struggle with our ability or willingness to be accountable for what we do, or fail to do. Think integrity, reliability, trustworthiness, respect. This article asks whether we are up for it...
- Being Stretched: ---PART 1--- | ---PART 2--- | ---PART 3--- | ---PART 4---
Let's be honest, most of us don’t like to be told how to do our job. Despite evidence that we are under-performing, the message (and sometimes the person delivering it) appears even more abrasive. We are almost hard-wired to react badly to the gentle suggestion to 'try it this way'. No one likes being caught short - and we carry that attitudinal load around all our lives if we choose. Or we can change our minds about learning, learning from others and the nature of respect...
- Blame:
---PART 1--- | ---PART 2--- | ---PART 3---
How easily we all point the finger of blame 'out there'... I too have been confronted by a tendency to point; without a second thought. The trouble is, if you don't risk anything, you risk even more - take life into your own hands and what happens? A terrible thing :) no one to blame....
- BUSINESS GOODWILL
It's difficult to put your finger on one thing that defines goodwill in companies, though the feel is usually in evidence when you see great customer-service, high job satisfaction and staff morale. Every corporation, school, shire or local council, community agency, church, association, club (right down to your local bowling club) either has or lacks this intangible thing called 'goodwill'. One thing is certain: you know when it is present or absent!
- COMMONSENSE
What is commonsense? Is it 'just knowing the rightness of a decision or a position'? This intuition or gut-feel requires no justification, thought-out argument or even a sense of logic - we just know. At times like this, we are at peace with our decision, and there are no regrets or recriminations...
- CORPORATE CULTURE & THE POWER OF 3
Philosophers, psychologists, theosophists et al all talk about human beings being born with an inner purpose. This inner purpose is over and above work, raising families and the things and circumstances that involve our daily lives. It is a gift, a vocation, a core purpose, in evidence through a deep compelling desire to contribute something to life. We all have this potential...
- HIGH TRUST ENVIRONMENTS
If you have ever been part of a group in which every individual could be totally relied on to do what they say... if you knew that nothing would get in the way of fulfilling the promise - then you have been in a high-trust environment...
- Human Spirit at Work (the):
---PART 1--- | ---PART 2--- | ---PART 3---
---PART 4---
---PART 5--- | ---PART 6--- | ---PART 7---
People in business generally become very suspicious, or at least guarded, when spirituality is raised in conversation. They see the topic as out of place in the work arena and any exploration of it is welcomed only in an air of secrecy. Why go there? Why would we even speak about spirituality in the same breath as business?...
- INFLUENTIAL LEADERSHIP
Influential leaders have a natural and insightful way of being in relationship. They are not always perfect at relating to people - but they have a keen interest in establishing, developing and sustaining the way they are in relationships...
- LEADERSHIP: SHAPING DIRECTIONS FROM THE INSIDE OUT
Inside-out Leadership is one of the most talked about yet least understood concepts. Unlike traditional leadership assessment criterion, where characteristics are deemed to be either learnt behaviour or acquired skills, the PiB approach holds that in fact ALL LEADERSHIP IS INHERENT. While many people closely identify with and understand this concept, an equal number are puzzled by it, perhaps sensing unknown territory: the antithesis of traditional, evidence-based programs...
- LOOKING WITHIN
What does it mean to 'look within'? It's a fair enough question, and speaks to the fundamental belief that human beings have innate energies - no exceptions. Just as science acknowledges the innate energy and potential of stored energy - we as humans also have innate energy which is diminished or enhanced by our physical, intellectual and psychological capacities...
- MOODS, FEELINGS, WORK
We all take our feelings seriously. As human beings, job satisfaction, indeed, life satisfaction - is critically important to us. In organisations, one topic invariably crops up - moods, emotions and feelings in the workplace context...
- OPEN, OR CLOSED?
We are mostly very aware of someone else's penchant to be closed (or open for that matter). When it comes to ourselves however, it is a different matter. Interestingly, there is one aspect to it all that most people have little understanding about...
- PERSONAL REALITY
"The reality is…" this often used statement (implying some universal truth), is after the fact of a hidden dynamism or energy in human beings. This hidden energy is our ability to create a seemingly endless number of opinions, judgements, realities and personal truths...
- SOLITUDE
So many of us long for inner solitude and contentment. Yet, few of us are prepared to do what is required to live in this peaceful and contented state. Innocently, we are distracted by the real world, and most of the time, our hurried pace seems normal, constructive; even necessary. But in quieter moments we see that beneath all the illusions, all the distractions, all the rationale; lies the longed-for contentment...
- STATE OF MIND & THE INFLUENTIAL LEADER
We often hear and speak about a person’s state or frame of mind without giving it a second thought. Mental state, temporary psychological condition or well-being, mindset, the way an individual sees life in that moment, state of thinking, thinking and feeling in the moment, level of mental well-being - all are descriptions of the same thing - State of Mind. They all share a commonality...
- THINKING BETTER
People often say that they need to 'get a grip on their thinking' - that 'I need to think more positively' or 'he/she/I need to change it if I want a better relationship.' For PiB, wanting to change is the only first step, indicating that the thinker has begun to recognise the influence of his or her thinking...
- UNSETTLED MIND (the)
Like a barometer which measures the rise and fall of temperature, our feelings measure the nature of our minds in any given moment. Ignoring our feelings has consequences: they are at work in every decision we make, every action we take, in the way we relate to others. They are our very experience of life...
- WHY IS IT SO DIFFICULT TO SEE THAT 'WE THINK'?
This seems a simple enough question, yet in the mental health field there are people who live their entire lives in the world of 'what they think'; the world of psychosis. After all, what is it to be delusional, if it isn't being lost in a world where we don't know that we think, and don't see that we create personal reality via thought?... |
