If I could write telepathically, I am 100% sure I’d have at least 3-4 blog posts written each and everyday. There is so much swirling in this brain of mine, and I have an incredible urge to spew my thoughts on paper. Er, on tbe computer screen (which is going out to la-la land because [...]

My Shrink Job- Change Challenge 52: Week 2photo from Single Stone Studios Now that you’ve worked through understanding your unique value, may reading the pictured Dr. Seuss quote illicit an automatic, “And, that’s a great thing!” Not quite there yet? Well, here’s part 2 of our Value challenge! Value: Part 2 This week, dialogue through the same questions you personally contemplated last week wit […]
- How People Change: Memory (Part 6)People change by changing what they think. We learned that in the last post. If only it were that easy! Sometimes it is. Most of the time it’s not. Sometimes when my five year olds proclaim something, I will say, “Well, if you think THAT (whatever “that” is), then THAT is what is true.” Or, “If […]
- Change Challenge 52: Week 1Value In our fast-paced, performance driven society, it is second-nature to think that our value is based on what we can offer other people. How often do we think of value in terms of who we are instead of what we do? Yes, they are often interconnected, but we tend to focus on the “doing” […]

- How People Change: Think! (Part 5)In my last post on “How People Change,” I talked about thoughts. More specifically, what a thought is – judgment, opinion, perception, implication, assumption, etc. I shared the definition of thought, which is: Thought: To exercise the power of reason, as by conceiving ideas, drawing inferences, and using judgment. To weigh or consider an idea. To […]
- How People Change: A Thought To Consider (Part 4)In my previous posts, I discussed the TEA process. Specifically, we dug into extreme actions and extreme emotions. Here’s a summary of what we talked about: Without actions, we simply have an emotion that isn’t expressed. Emotions on the other hand occur all day, everyday, and come in three distinct varieties: numb, normal, and extreme. Numb simply […]
- How People Change: Feelings…Nothing More Than… (Part 3)Notice our little man has grown since my last post! Last time I talked about actions that were either internal or external (acting out or acting in). This time, I’ll be talking about feelings…nothing more than, feelings… Ahem. There really are only two types of emotions, and we can call them “good” and “bad.” Clients only come […]
- How People Change: Actions Speak (Part 2)Yesterday I posted the super-simple initial process of change. On paper, it seems very easy – and it is! Thoughts create emotions. Emotions create actions. It stands to reason that if you change what you’re thinking, you’ll change what you’re feeling, right? In theory, that is absolutely correct! So, process done. Well, not so fast… There’s more to chan […]

You’re about to see…) In almost […]
