Last Day to Register for Storytelling Workshop - TODAY

I can hardly believe it's the last day to register for the workshop on Saturday! Today! Thursday the 11th.

Yep. We need to know how many people are committed to coming so we can get everything ready. Are you committed? It's so easy. Just click here!

Time flies when you're having fun, and it flies when you're just freakin' busy. I don't know about you all, but time has felt like it sped up about a year ago. Time just flies anymore - whether I'm having fun or not! Luckily, most of the time I'm having a blast.

One of the things keeping me busy is putting together this fun and dynamic workshop using one of my favorite tools called VisualsSpeak. It's used a lot in team facilitation, intercultural communication (it's used at Nike a lot), coaching, ice-breakers... oh the list goes on. 

I've pulled together my favorite tools and created an afternoon of discovery, connecting (with ourselves and with others), and designing, not just an image of what we want, but action steps to make those things real.

Stories aren't just make-believe. They are the beginnings of what we can make real. 

If you keep telling the same, sad, old, tired story - you'll keep living the same, sad, old, tired story. 

Its time to tell a new one. A glorious one. A TRUE one. One that you can make real. One that gives you JOY. You do have the power to create a wholehearted life, but it will take releasing the old stuff and welcoming in the new.

Join us on Saturday for a creative, fun, safe and supportive storytelling circle.

It's time to tell your story. Your True story.

Release the old stories, write a new one!

5 steps to thinking big and making things happen

Visionary companies may appear strait-laced to outsiders, but they're not afraid to make bold commitments to Big Hairy Audacious Goals (BHAGs).

Like climbing Mt. Everest, going to the moon, putting a computer on every desk (sound familiar?), a BHAG can sound daunting, risky and maybe even dangerous...

... but the adventure, excitement, and challenge of it grabs people in the gut, gets their juices flowing and creates immense forward momentum. - Dan Zadra

2010 is the year to think big.After the last two years of status quo and major shifts in some paradigms, its time. And I believe it's high time to go BIG.

I'm inspiring my friends, family and clients (and myself!) to dream big, think big and then start taking baby steps, one small intentional action at a time, to make those things happen. I'm coaching people to get them inspired and wired to make things happen.

You can do it too. Your friends, family, clients, co-workers. Some ways to get you started.

  1. Get clear about what you want. Crystal clear. Make a list of all that you want. Be specific.
  2. Make sure it pertains to you. You can lead a horse to water, but you can't make him drink. Make sure what you want is something you can effect.
  3. Believe you can have it. Trust that it will arrive and know that it might not look like what you think it should.
  4. Be grateful for what you already have. Say thank you. Over and over. Smile.
  5. Build your community. Share your goal, your inspiration, your requests, your success. The universe does it all the time. What you put out, comes back to you (at least I think so). We help make that happen by sharing with others and that means giving and receiving.

Where do you want to go? What BIG things do you want? Share them!

'Tis the season and all that. And there's never a better time to start than now.

Because you're already here.

 

What to dive into 2010 with all your ducks in a row? What to jump start your BHAGs and get started now? Join me in January get to going full speed ahead!
