A Few Positive Thinking Techniques

By Karen Van Riesen - Do you find it hard to stop thinking? Do you wake up in the middle of the night and immediately your mind clicks into high gear – so you’re thinking instead of sleeping? Sometimes we think that we are getting a leg up on solving our problems and getting a head start on the day, but is this true? My mind begins to buzz and flip from topic to topic like a Rolodex and do I really think I’m getting somewhere? This catches up with me later in the day. After lunch my mind says, ‘where’s that bed I was thinking in at 4:00 am this morning?’ I know some people who have a thinking chair and they spend...

Don’t Overthink Life!  Think Less and Get Happy

Babies have the charisma to melt anybody’s heart instantly; no one escapes the twinkling eyes or the innocent smile. Just their presence will cheer you up, make you forget your worries and tempt you to indulge into their world. What is it about the young ones that we so fondly adore: their innocence or their ignorance; their cheerful nature or their worry-less attitude? Though I don’t have answers to the above questions, I wonder as to what makes their aura so desirable.

Self Esteem, Self Confidence and Self Respect

By Bob Urichuck - Self esteem is an internal sense of worth. It reflects an inner confidence and self-respect and it shines outwardly by the actions one takes. The self esteem which evolves on the inside is usually reflected on the outside. Your internal self worth which consists of your self-esteem, self confidence and self respect will become your external net worth. It is a matter of pride in who you are and the mentor you can be. Compare an individual with strong self esteem and high net worth to another with weak one and low net worth. What are the obvious differences? Does self esteem play a major role? Of course, it does. It is the essence of a personality. Strong self esteem...

Self Confidence And Tenacity Can Make Life Work in Your Favor

Self Confidence And Tenacity Bring Success Thomas A. Edison failed 10 000 times before he invented the light bulb. Henry Ford had to overcome many obstacles before he could succeed, for one he had only had up to 6th grade schooling in his life and still he become one of the most successful men of his time.

Leadership Trait Theory

December 20, 2010
By

  Leadership Trait Theory … …is  an idea that stems from the thought that we are born with certain qualities that define our potential to become leaders. There are many traits that we as a society  have come to associate with strong leadership. The leadership trait theory operates on the assumption that we can identify people who possess these traits and thus identify people who have the potential to be great leaders. Of course the whole theory is based on the idea that people are born with these traits so basically you either have them or you don’t. If one subscribes to this line of reasoning, there are some obvious points of contention. Leadership trait theory proposes that people are born to be effective...
