Fear
The Clever, Seductive and Convincing Liar
Fear rarely introduces itself honestly. It disguises itself as procrastination, perfectionism, anger, certainty, avoidance, and the need to control outcomes.
The challenge isn’t eliminating fear. It's learning how to manage it before it begins making decisions for us.
In my talk I describe the ladder that is sturdily built to climb out of this well of fear.
All anyone needs to do is reach up and grab onto it.
Control
Less than we might wish. More than we can imagine.
Most of us spend our lives trying to control things that were never ours to control—other people, outcomes, timing, the future itself.
The surprise is that real power isn’t found there.
It is found much closer to home.
We control our actions, our choices, our preparation, our attitude, and the next step directly in front of us.
When we stop trying to control the ocean, we discover we have become much better captains of our own ship.
Becoming Comfortable with Being Uncomfortable
In order for Growth & Change to Last
This habit must be become routine.
And the good news is that it most definitely can!
Learn to Observe, Notice & Catch
Your Thoughts.
And discover that some are worthy of your attention and many are not and waste your precious time.
WhyTouchstone Works
A Different Approach.
I Use Humor.
I believe that the sayings, photos, or jokes a person finds comical or poignant to them can say a lot about that person.
Here are a few of mine.
If they resonate with you also-GREAT.
If they don't, you may want to shop around for a different Speaker.
About this, I am not joking; I am being totally serious.
Connection matters greatly to me.
