What inspires you... a smile from a stranger, watching someone being kind to another person, a co-worker receiving accolades for a project well done, or a parent giving their child hugs and kisses just because.

Acknowledgements are fuel for empowerment! How do you feel when someone congratulates you for a job well done? Notice how your energy feels. When someone is nice to you, not only is there a rise in your seratonin, there is a rise in seratonin of the person that said it to you. There is also a rise in seratonin of the people that were witness to this act of kindness. You probably didn't think your kindness could effect so many people.

Acknowledgements that come from the heart are the ones that make the most difference. You can tell when someone is being sincere or if they're saying something to puff up their own ego. You can feel it in the person's energy as well as your own. We have been taught at a young age to think of ourselves, but don't boast. Think and act strong, but don't tell anyone how well they're doing because they may pass you up for that promotion. What if we changed, just a little bit, would it help others as well as ourselves?

Acknowledging from the heart can have a powerful impact on your attitude and your motivation to continue on your path, whether it is a project at work or a life situation you are working through. Try to look back on the week and think of the acknowledgments you have received. What were they? How did you feel? What about the acknowledgments you said to someone else, how do you think the other person felt after hearing them? Did you notice a change in how the other person acted?

It's amazing what true active listening and heartfelt acknowledgments can do for a person's motivation. How many people can you inspire this week with just a few good acknowledgments.

There are four internal forces that can be made to work positive for any person who dares to look upon his/her life in all honesty. Shakespeare said, “To thine own self be true” and it’s just as true today as in his time. The key to controlling the forces of life comes from an honest look at the motivations which drive us and others.

Everyone desires a happy life experience and the workplace is no exception. The sad fact is very few truly accomplish it. The very task of being independent is in itself a monumental if not impossible task for many. Achieving fullness in spirit and material is a challenge for only the best prepared as well as the very fittest.

There are two things that go hand in hand making who the person is today. These are confidence and self esteem. If the person is unaware of one's potential or what he or she can become, the term given to someone is a loser. Nobody wants to be called a loser but unfortunately, there are a few in society. These are the people who don't have any ambition or drive in life, can't hold a job and most of the time are unemployed.

Did you ever wish you could be less shy or that you would spend less time worrying about how you’re perceived by others? Maybe you are all too familiar with the way that self-doubts seem to crop up out of nowhere, beyond your control? While a good deal of stress is caused by worrying about important things like paying the bills or meeting that next deadline at work, recent psychological research has demonstrated that a significant portion of an individual’s stress comes from social anxiety, or the time and energy spent worrying about how one is perceived by others.

What is the history of the sedona method and does it really work? I have outlined here a quick history of the sedona method for those who are interested. The Sedona method began its life with a man called Lester Levenson. When Lester was 42 he had suffered his second major heart attack and was sent home to die. His doctor told him he had only weeks and perhaps days to live so he should not exert himself and stay in bed.
