Curiosity will get you further than certainty most of the time. Am I suggesting you abandon all reason and those things you’re certain of?

Worry doesn’t work. Even when the world doesn’t make sense, when you’d like to change everything about the circumstances and conditions surrounding you, and things feel out of control. Worry is a result of catastrophizing what could be but isn’t. It’s a result of your mind running rampant with all the possibilities for negative outcomes… View Article

Do you push yourself? Most of us don’t. I know I don’t. At least not in the domains that are challenging for me. This is why my clients who have graduated from EOS continue to have me facilitate sessions. Or they do a tune up once a year to ensure they don’t veer too far… View Article
Imagine there is a bank that credits your account each morning with $86,400. It carries over no balance from day to day.
