Work/Life Balance

We all get busy at times. While trying to provide for ourselves and families we can often get locked into a work work lifestyle.

Time Management is really important.  Often people will tell me they don't have time to relax as they are always too busy.

A great idea is to map out what your "busy" is. What do you spend your time doing?  When we write down what we do everyday, we might end up surprised at where our time goes.

Balance is all about getting more of an even keel on life.

I invite you to write down where all your time goes.

Make a list of your key values.

When you find our where all your times goes, check in and see if you time is going to the things you most value. If not it might be time to have a look at where your time is going.

Most of us work and that is a fact of life.  Getting the right balance doesn't mean when we are not working we have to have a lavish lifestyle and spend lots of our hard earned money.

Get back to the simple things in life.

Nature is free, very grounding and very nurturing for our soul.

The things you can do that don't cost a lot of money are probably going to be more beneficial for you.

So, I encourage you to map our your time allocations for the next few days, and see where it is going. If you are happy where it is going, then stay doing what you are doing.

If your time allocations aren't what you want, think about ways to change them so you can create your own personalised work/life balance.

Manifest. Abundance. Connection

 Manifesting. Abundance. Connections. One thing all of us need is connections. We need connections to feel safe, to grow, to love  and to feel connected to someone or something else. One of my beliefs is that if we can always give someone 5 minutes of your time. In that 5 minutes of genuinely giving someone your time and attention, connections can be made.  The secret to this strategy is to have good boundaries so that you don't become the person who has to listen to everyone's story over and over and it become draining on yourself.  Most people wouldn't be able to tell you the last time someone took a straight 5 minutes to listen and communicate without other distraction. Yet this form of communication is the most important. In that 5 minutes you could have unknowingly been someone's light house, someone could have been having the worst day ever, and your kindness of just listening, talking and being there 100% just for 5 minutes can change the protectory of their d...

Special Needs Children - Angels that walk the Earth

Over the years I have had a fair bit to do with children with special needs and their parents. The sheer love and determination from parents of special needs children, shines though, and parents learn ways to manage different problems they have to overcome. Years ago as a teenager I used to visit a friends brother in a residential care home for children. My first visit left me feeling sad and overwhelmed. Being a teenager and really thinking mostly about myself, I felt I had enough issues in my own life to deal with, growing up seemed hard enough at the time. So I choose not to go back and visit again.  Something inside me keep bugging me and months later I returned to the home and my visits become weekly Friday night visits.  My love for these children grew and grew to the point I gave up Happy Hour at work. Remember I was a teenager, happy hour in the middle of town on a Friday night was a ton of fun.  Something inside me gave my night away in order to visit ...

Welcome to 2015, Let us make it the best year yet.

Happy New Year to you all.  It is hard to believe how quickly the days, months and years roll by.  How was 2014 for you? Hopefully it was a good year for you.  What would you like 2015 to hold?   We all have goals and dreams, some we achieve and some we just don't. Sometimes we can get caught up in the thought the dreams are for others. I truly believe that if someone out there is doing what I want to do, then why can't I.  Often what stops us are our self limiting beliefs.  Sometimes we can hold a fear of failure, so it is easier not to try because we might fail, and who wants to fail.  Let us change our meaning of failure, failure is merely feedback.  Every time something doesn't work out the way we think, we learn not to do it that way, so we try another way.  Failure can be very useful and maybe try changing the wording to feedback. I believe Success is a Birth Right. Every one has a right to be successful. Success is a...
