Purposeful Direction vs Possible Disconnection
When it comes to our personal development journey the path is different for each and every individual and, along the way may come across changes in circumstances that we are not prepared for. It is wonderful to live a life with purposeful direction and to be free of limiting beliefs and fears that hold most of us back from living our lives to the full however, it can also cost a few relationships along the way as those who are close to us struggle to understand and often fear the possible disconnection that they feel they may be facing.

DESPERATELY SEEKING HAPPINESS
It became apparent to me quite a while ago that there are a lot of people in this world ‘desperately seeking happiness.’ This somewhat elusive emotion seems to come and go at will.

If I was to ask you this one question what would your answer be? What do ...
DO YOU KNOW WHAT YOU ARE HERE TO DO?

Have you ever gone to bed at night with that empty feeling in your stomach and still have it there when you wake up? That nagging feeling that there is something you were put here to do, but what? We enter our teenage years tentatively and our self esteem can be shattered easilyat this stage as we are still quite vulnerable, then we get into our twenties and begin our career in the workforce ...
How to turn your failures into success
What do you do when you know something is going to benefit you yet you keep falling back into your same old patterns?

LIVING FOR YOUR LIFE
Last night I sat with my 16 year old daughter and watched Jamie Oliver battling to get permission to teach nutrition and cook healthy meals for a school in the US. Time and again he got thwarted and the school principal had to go and dig for some loophole that would get him back into the school again. I got quite emotional when he interviewed some of the children as they lived in fear of losing their parents and loved ones early, not to mention the toll an unhealthy diet was having on them. Without the right nutrients our children ...
