Her book " Be a Great Manager Now " was published by Pearson in May 2016. She is an accredited speaker - presenting at National and International conferences, a resident guest expert (Positive Psychology) on The Chrissy B Show (Sky 203), and the host of a local radio show in the UK "LifestyleMK" on Secklow Sounds. We have conducted an interview with her. Why makes “positive psychology” special? Positive psychology focuses on what is right and how to make that even better, rather than what is wrong and bringing us to the “norm”. For example, if a child is being bullied, rather than focus solely on making amends, channel the child’s energies into a new hobby (or similar) – they will associate with a new group of friends and this will build their self confidence…in turn, this makes it easier to deal with the...

Our guest today is Tracy Weaver from Overland Park, Kansas. He is the VP of Strategy for REI USA and published author of many books. We have conducted an interview with him. What led you to writing self-help books? I was racing forward in my professional career. Big time management consulting gigs, flying through the corporate world, etc. I hit a wall and found that I was really struggling to “advance” in a way that made sense and also fit with my values and work/life balance. I was missing some core “life lessons” and I realized that I needed to learn some of the “soft skills” needed to survive and advance in the business world. How did you overcome those challenges? I started reading all the best literature available. I took classes, I subscribed to online courses, all of that. I also found a few good mentors to coach me through those areas of need. I invested more than 200 hours on any given topic, and once I was able to apply it in my own life AND successfully coa...

Best mind. Body. Spirit. Life

Image
www.bestmindbodyspirit.com is a motivational blog and podcast. The writers are from New Jersey, who run a medical practice and always looking to try to motivate and inspire people. We have conducted an interview with them. What makes you think 'I can't' is the most disabling mindset ever? “I can’t” sets you up for failure before you even try to do something. You’re basically saying “I don’t believe in myself.” We are capable of so much as people and many of us unfortunately never live up to our full potential. The only reason we do not? Because of the “I can’t” mindset. How do you think people can change it? By changing “I can’t” to “I can.” Sounds pretty simple right? We’ve found that it is one of the most difficult things for people to do. It has to start with a willingness to change and grow as a person, as well as developing a “must” attitude toward achieving what is important to you in life. People have big dreams and aspirations and get easily disco...

Psychic Christine is a naturally gifted Psychic Medium, Reiki Master, Certified Life Coach, Ordained Minister, and Spiritual Teacher. We have conducted an interview with her. How does helping people using coaching skills you possessed energise you? Helping people using my coaching skills doesn't really energize me as much as it helps my clients. It helps them to see things they hadn't paid attention to before or haven't considered. It helps the client whom I am helping to feel at ease that what they are going through can be solved. In your opinion, how does making a person's situation clearer to him/her help in solving a life challenge or difficulty? Sometimes there are things that we don't see when we are in certain situations. When doing a reading, things seem to come up that the client hadn't considered or thought about.

Image
Pisoongu is a new Motivational Lifestyle Brand that gives 50% of its sales to Big Brother Big Sister Charity. We have conducted an interview with Efrain E Guerrero Founder of Pisoongu : Why did you decide to create pisoongu.com? Where did you draw your inspiration about Pisoongu from? I decided to start Pisoongu because there is too much procrastination in today’s society and it’s churning out people who have low self esteem, fear of failure, fear of success, fear rejection, anxieties… basically people who under achieve and never accomplish their dreams in life. How do I know this?... because I am a recovering procrastinator. The above paragraph describes me and the demons I fight daily. I compare procrastination to any other disease or destructive habit like alcoholism for example. An alcoholic will always struggle with not drinking when things get rough or when things are great, he will struggle to make the right choices when it’s easier and more instantly gratif...
