Fashioning A Fashion Career
Aside from being model or a Hollywood A-lister, perhaps there is no other career more glamorous or exciting as fashion design. Most people conceive of a career in fashion designing as merely drinking cocktails, dressing celebrities up and attending chi-chi affairs. But fashion designing is more than that. Fashion is not just about clothes design either; designers pursue other interests like shoes, accessories, or bag designs. Of course, nothing gives a designer glory than a famous celebrity wearing and acknowledging her creations. Excited about pursuing a fashion designing career? Don't grab your pencil and paper yet, there is more to designing than just drawing.In setting up a fashion design business, a budd

How to Determine Firm's Overall Cost of Capital

The cost of capital is a required income from budget-planned long-term capital investments of the company. The cost of capital is used as the minimum rate of revenue capital investments.

Are all your discussions calm and productive? Or would you say that many of them are heated, argumentative, and non-productive? All relationship partners will argue – face it. But there is a safe, productive way to have these discussions. To Co-Create a Conscious Relationship™, you must have structured discussions between the Sender – the partner with the issue -- and the Receiver -- the recipient of the Sender’s thoughts and feelings. This assessment measures how well you and your partner communicate.

This free set of assessments offers you the chance to find powerful answers. If you are willing to take the time to reflect on these questions, discuss them, and be honest with yourselves and each other, it can help you on your journey to Co-Create a Conscious Relationship™ so you can be

Best Friends During the Day,
Lovers at Night, and
Partners for Life™.

The adventure of life gives us the incredible opportunity to learn and grow as individuals. I like to say that we do not stop learning, stretching, growing, maturing, and changing until we are 6 feet under. What happens so often is we go through life unaware that we don’t know what we don’t know. In this fast-paced world, many of us do not have or take the time to sit, take a deep breath, and really think about the statements addressed in these assessments. We usually do not reflect on and consider the impact the answers to these statements can have on our relationship. We must gain the awareness, learn the techniques, and practice the skills to Co-Create a Conscious Relationship™.

Take your time to think about each statement and be honest. One partner should use a black pen and the other partner a red pen. Rate your degree of agreement for each statement on a scale from 1 to 10, with 10 being a definite yes and 1 being a definite no. Write your score on the first line to the left of each statement. The second line is for your partner’s score.

You may find it difficult to give certain statements a low score. You may worry that your response will hurt or offend your partner or create conflict. Honesty, however, is critical for the success of the Co-Create a Conscious Relationship™ program. Also, no matter what score your partner writes down, be supportive; do not get defensive, resentful, or angry. Thank him or her for being courageous and honest. All of the topics in this assessment series are covered in detail, with exercises, in my book The Journey from “I-TO-WE”.™
