Weight: You can lose it!

Waiting or change your thinking – Want’s it going to be?
Change. Many people want change to happen, but they are waiting for it to come along and simply happen for them. Some of you may be fans of positive affirmations, of New Year's resolutions and some of you may not. My take on it is that on it's own, setting your...

Metaphors: everyone loves a story!
Everyone loves a story. When someone says to you, 'can I tell your a story' or indeed they simply start telling you a story or tale have you ever noticed how people seem to relax back into their chair and listen in? (advertisers love using stories on TV right now)....
What’s holding you back – do you have a limiting belief?
Have you ever stopped yourself from doing something? - I guess we all have at some point if we're honest. Imagine what you could have achieved if you'd gone for it ... are there times when you look back and wonder how things might have been had you not stopped...
‘…Try, Try and Try again’ or is it faster to change your language?
