Negative Emotions

A few weeks ago I wrote a post listing positive emotions. For many reasons we can find ourselves limited to just a few. But our vocabulary could be much wider, and we can use a wide range to describe a state beyond happy, sad, angry etc. Here’s the link to the positive emotions and in […]
Yes … And …

I regularly attend comedy improv classes. It’s both challenging and fun. I love to learn new things, and this is taking me outside my comfort zone which is a journey I encourage everyone to take. We learn through games. One such is ‘Yes … And’ We divide into triads and two of us perform a […]
Being Authentic

I want to write from the heart. To be authentic. To write things that are meaningful to me. I want to write posts to make people think, to give people like you some inspiration. I don’t want to write with SEO in mind. I’ve been mainly writing things to help my Amazing People Career Consultancy […]
Positive Emotions

Do you sometimes find it hard to vocalize what emotion you are currently feeling? Some words we know and use a lot, such as happy, sad, frustrated, excited … but there are others. This list, which I will add to helps us to take a wider view of how we are feeling. What can be […]
The time to un-become everything that isn’t really me.

Maybe the journey isn’t so much about becoming anything. Maybe it’s about un-becoming everything that isn’t really you, so you can be who you were meant to be in the first place. Paulo Coelho. A year ago, I thought this statement was true to me as I embraced my single life and caught […]
My Vison Quest: The Return
Friday 5 July I left home at 12.30. Excitement, anticipation and a little unsure; but certainly, up for the Vision Quest. 10 days of camping, 4 nights without a tent. I hadn’t camped for years … and over 15 years since I’d had to crawl in and out of a small dome tent. Without any […]
A Vision Quest – Part 2

I’ve had a range of emotions for what’s coming up – scared and nervous, with an upset tummy for nearly a week. Then the calmness came. And that remains. I don’t know in any detail what will happen, that’s good for someone like me who likes to be in control, at all times. If you […]
How have you developed yourself this week?

Few people focus on personal and professional development. It’s one of the topics I discuss with new clients. I’m looking for extra detail to include in their CV and other job search marketing material. I want to see where their interests lie to help identify new career options. Too many people find it hard to […]
Stop being so busy

Busy! I used to work double shifts – there was always so much to do, and I prioritised my work. This past year I’ve spent less time working, I have been more focused, but I have a busy social life. I love new experiences so why stay in when there is a band to […]
A VISION QUEST

We must all follow our vision quest to discover ourselves, and to find our relationship with the world around us. I’m at a point in my life where I want to think again on my life purpose but this time to do it in nature. I want to get in touch with the deeper part […]
