Forgiveness is Freedom

There is an old proverb that says: If you love someone set them free. If they come back to you it was meant to be. For years I thought this quote was about letting go in our relationships. Not holding on too tight, giving them freedom to leave without being possessive or controlling. OK, sounds wise and seems simple enough. I imagined them flying off to explore all the adventures life has to offer and eventually coming back home to me. Or not. It sounds so magical and romantic and mysterious. The only thing is it left me in a passive position.

Skiing the Slopes of Leadership

It was Boss’s Day on the 16th October. I was listening to the radio as I drove out to do a keynote address to heads of private banks. My mind was systematically going through the points I had to raise during my talk but it was a difficult task as the DJ was getting callers to share how they planned to celebrate the day with their bosses. The talk back radio show was popular most mornings. A string of callers responded, some who liked their bosses and others dreading the day as they felt compelled to take their bosses out for lunch to say the least.

This model explains how we process the information that comes into us from the outside. The belief is that "The map is not the territory."

Is Your Team On A One Way Street?

Today I have decided to address one of the most important presuppositions in NLP; "The meaning of communication is the response you get." What does this really mean? It indicates that the meaning of a piece of communication is not in what you say but rather in what the recipient of your message has understood by it. So if you say something to your colleague, boss, friend, spouse or children and they take it to mean something else, the onus is on you, not them, to clarify it.

The Power of Dreams

The Power of Dreams Did you know you can have 7 or more dreams a night? While your body is resting, your brain is awake and working away on things your conscious mind doesn’t even know about. Dreams can be vivid and powerful, full of emotion and ideas. As far back as 5000 BC, dreams have been interpreted as having portents: of being worth more than what the conscious mind can offer. We could identify their sensations with “real life” or, more precisely, waking life, actions and events. Your dreams can tell you an incredible amount about yourself.
