How to Shift the Focus of Your Energy to Achieve More Balance
Most of us spend more time on things that don’t yield the most joy and satisfaction, and less time on the things that do. In an ideal world we’d all be spending most of our time on the things that make us happy and only a small amount of effort would go into things that feel less rewarding. Unfortunately,...
Great Things Happen When We Plan With Purpose
I’m the first person to admit that I know absolutely nothing about rugby (I irritate the people I’m watching with by saying things like, “why do they have to be so horrible to each other?” and, “is it really necessary to be so rough?”). I do, however understand things like passion, purpose,...
Plan to Spend Your Energy Wisely
God grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change; courage to change the things I can; and wisdom to know the difference. ~ The Serenity Prayer Most of us are not short of courage or of wisdom. We are brave and wise beyond our years, and always have been. We have fought hard to...

Over and over I see coaches who are feeling exhausted...
My Quick and Easy Time and Task Management Tool
“As you get older; you've probably noticed that you tend to forget things. You'll be talking with somebody at a party, and you'll know that you know this person, but no matter how hard you try, you can't remember his or her name. This can be very embarassing, especially if he or she turns out to be...
Time Flies When You are Having Fun
I am amazed how short an hour seems when I am coaching, and how long it seems when I am not. Coaching hours seem to fly by, while non-coaching hours pass more gradually. When we are completely engaged in something, totally focused and 100% committed to the task at hand, time seems to speed up. Whether...
Email Overload
This blog is helping me to keep track of how I spend my time! I am somewhat ashamed to admit that, until now, I paid little attention to how I filled my working days. This last week or so of writing this blog has made me realize how much time I spend on admin and, in particular, on emails. I really...
