Finding Clarity About And Deepening Alignment With One's Goals




Transmuting Anxiety into Excitement




Recognizing Internal Contradictions and Reconciling them




Sorting Through Feelings Of Ambivalence




Cultivating Inner Development




Developing skills such as Intentionally Responding rather than Reacting; Devloping a Growth, rather than Fixed, Mindset; Complexity Awareness; Critical Thinking; Humility; Empathy and Compassion; Create psychological safety and Connectedness; Co-Creation Skills; Intercultural Competence; Courage; Creativity; Self-Regulation; Moving from inner focus to Enabling Change in the outer world; Seeing self as part of something bigger and therefore taking responsibility for the bigger picture rather than focusing only on Self and own personal wellbeing; Envisioning in a long-term perspective




Shadow Work -- Facing the parts of yourself you once avoided Allowing Responsibilty to become liberation: Recognizing you cannot heal what you keep blaming and that Awareness is where Freedom begins; Recognizing the loops you live inside and taking ownership of your patterns (emotional reactions, habits, and beliefs that run on autopilot); appreciating that neuroscience shows that the brain rewires through Awareness and Repetition, and that every time you choose differently, you create a new neural path, and when you stop pointing outward and look inward, the pattern loses power; Realizing you can stop running from your patterns and rewrite them




Giving up things you are addicted to by diverting your focus to goals that may be more important to you and to improving your life




Cultivating and aligning with a Vision of what you want so that you are acting on being inspired by your Vision rather than relying on willpower




Using Pain Neuroscience information to help manage Pain




Appreciating that research shows that getting less than 7 hours of sleep a night increases the risk of all-cause mortality, that sleep deprivation increases levels of adrenaline that may cause one to incorrectly believe that they don't "need" any more sleep, that this increased adrenaline may be the cause of one's face and ears to be red and warm, and that this sustained high level of adrenaline is not healthy


Also appreciating that the average sleep cycle lasts from 90-100 minutes and that many people wake up after each sleep cycle, especially as they get older, and appreciating the research that shows how alcohol interferes with health-improving deep sleep, and using magnesium malate instead of alcohol to help with improving sleep depth and falling back asleep after waking up after each sleep cycle




Identifying what is needed for one's own personal Self-Care, considering one's unique needs and preferences, believing that Self-Care is not Selfish, and seeing that effective Self-Care, when tailored to one's unique needs and preferences, can increase one's performance and ability to care for others



Reducing Anxiety/Fear, developing the skill of Relaxation, Stress Management, Confidence Building, Finding Balance, and Becoming more Comfortable With Uncertainty and Change; Developing the skill of Noting What Needs To Be Done And Then Focusing On Doing It, Rather Than Wasting Energy Worrying About it; Developing the skill of focusing only On the present moment at times, recognizing that Anxiety and Fear are related to the Future and when we truly focus on only the Present Moment, it is impossible to feel Fear or Anxiety




Remembering that, when meeting new people, people may be wanting different things than you may be wanting, and/or may be wanting more than you can give at this time, and if the other person does not act as if you are a priority to them, it is usually due to a reason that you do not have the ability to change any time soon, if at all, and that you most likely cannot change their lack of interest in you by communicating more to them or becoming more available to them


Remembering that, if the other person does not Consistently act as if you are a priority to them and Consistently treat you well, they likely never will, no matter what you ever do, so you can be liberated by such realization, and focus on other opportunities that may be a much better fit for you


Remembering that if you have been welcoming to the the other person, and they are not inviting you to do something with them, there is a reason they are not inviting you that it is in your best interest to respect and accept, and divert your attention elsewhere


Focusing on Redirection rather than Rejection by appreciating that this kind of thing happens to the "very best" of people (as can be seen in both recent and historical News), acknowledging that the other person's lack of interest in you is not something you can control at this time, and it would therefore be better for you to focus on other things that you can control


Remaining aware that it's one thing to investigate to see if another person may be interested in you, but that it is quite another thing to try to cause someone to feel interested in you, and feeling good about the fact that you investigated the possibility of their interest in you (so you won't have to always wonder "What if you had"), accepting the lack of reciprocal feeling you got, and redirecting your focus to other things


Re-centering yourself by clarifying what you want (i.e., only Consistently Healthy, Inspiring, respectful interactions that feel good), acknowledging that the other person's behavior has not, or no longer does, fit into this category, and stop wasting your valuable energy and time hoping that it will (because once people have behaved in a way that shows a lack of attraction/respect for you, or inspiration by you, they usually do not stop doing this)


Politely disengaging rather than pursuing the consistently healthy interaction from this person that has been eluding you (acknowledging that it will most likely continue to elude you if you keep pursuing it from this person), and making the Choice to detach from the emotional let-down by discharging the frequency of Rejection by focusing instead on developing yourself and finding other opportunities that will be a better fit for you


Remembering the fact that "sometimes one door needs to close before another will open" and release this energy that may be keeping you in a painful holding pattern and keeping you stuck in an unhealthy dynamic


Remembering that, when dealing with a person who may treat you extremely well --better than others-- for short periods of time, who also treats you very badly at times, may be doing this due to having a personality disorder, past trauma, insecurity, or some other cause, and that this person may be one of many people who are not satisfied by healthy interaction, who look for people they can treat in unhealthy ways, at least some of the time, and that they may treat you very well at times, just enough to keep you hooked (i.e., causing you to chase after them and beg for their attention), recognizing when you see this in others, understanding and accepting that this is a pattern that will not likely ever end with this person, no matter how much you may communicate with them about it, and then politely disengaging and letting them be


Remembering that just because someone looks beautiful/healthy on the outside does not mean they are beautiful/healthy on the inside




Moving through the stages of Grief due to loss of a loved one by death, unrequited love, or the one you love having found someone or something else they now think is better for for them, or some other kind of loss, accepting these things as things you cannot change, and moving forward with your life in ways that Divert your Focus from these things that you cannot change onto other things that you can change to improve your life




Accepting immediately that some people do not want to answer questions from you, and when seeing this, not focusing on wondering why they don't want to answer questions, keeping in mind that they probably have reasons for this they don't want you to to know, that we are all doing the best we know to do, maintaining Compassion for them and yourself, and politely disengaging to avoid any potential Conflict with them




Remembering that you can Choose to be Happy, that Happiness is a Habit, and that, Happiness Leads To Success, rather than Success Leading To Happiness





Setting diplomatic and effective Boundaries with a loved one who has a personality disorter, or for some other reason, does not relate to you in a consistently free-flowing equal honorable way



Learning more about oneself through use of the Myers-Briggs Type Indicator Test And Use Of This Information To Help With Relationships, Career Planning, and Business Development




Developing Collaborative Leadership and Executive Skills, including Diplomatic and Effective Time Management and Business Meeting Etiquette




Improving Relationship and Leadership Skills through the use of Compassionate Communication by doing things like:


Maintaining a position of non-judgment when communicating and focusing on needs and feelings intstead of who is "right" and who is "wrong;" Using Active Listening to really hear what the other person is saying and putting yourself in their shoes, rather than just waiting to speak; Keeping in mind that it's not just what you say, but how you say it that makes an impression and speaking with with expressions of kindness and patience with compassion in your eyes and voice; Pausing for a moment and taking the time necessary to Respond calmly, rather than Reacting impulsively, and Responding with compassionate encouragement that promotes a Growth Mindset, i.e., "It's not win-or-lose, but win-or-learn," etc.





Progressing toward goals one has set for oneself that are within one's chosen path of spirituality one has selected for oneself, and/or to help one find one's sense of Center

Increasing one's vibrational frequency thus improving one's inner energy health and reducing fear, anxiety, and anger, and increasing Synchronicity, Flow, And Confidence, and achieving deep transcendent change



Vibrational Frequency Development: Doing things to promote high vibrational frequency before leaving one's home each day, such as Realizing and Remembering that we can choose what we focus on, and choosing to focus on things one is grateful for rather than choosing to focus on things one could choose to feel angry or resentful about; choosing to focus on Love rather than Hate; choosing to focus on being Kind and Compassionate rather than Judgmental and combative; and choosing to focus on feeling excited about all that could go right rather than focusing on feeling fearful about all that could go wrong; and to maintain these choices throughout the day
