To be a thought leader in any arena, we need to be free and original thinkers, capable of focusing on how we are thinking as well as what we are thinking. The Indian philosopher Sri Aurobindo said, “In order to see, you have to stop being in the middle of the picture.” This means we have to step outside of ourselves, put some distance between ourselves and our thoughts so we can assess their heritage and test them for authenticity. Because the consciousness of a leader has a tremendous impact on the consciousness of the organization, every leader must do the deep and personal work of clarifying his or her own thoughts, so that when we speak, every word has a ring of clarity, every statement has a purpose and air of authenticity.This requires a looking inward that both grounds and balances our outward actions. When we look within, mine our own experience for feelings that not only mesh with our message, but are actually the source of the message, then the delivery itself carries an integrity of authorship that is convincing, compassionate, and compelling. When we manage to rid our

Wedding “disasters” come in many forms – from problems that are “fixable” such as the wrong flower in your bouquet, lipstick on your wedding gown, or the dj playing the wrong song for the first dance, to the necessity of major re-vamping of the day itself because of rain storms, blizzards and power outages, or the sudden illness of a member of the wedding party or a parent. No, deciding now to elope is probably NOT the best solution. However, there are some things that you can do to keep the stress levels down, and help avoid a traumatic meltdown should something not go as planned.Bring ahead. Are you allowed to bring ceremony items during the rehearsal and leave them overnight? If so, bring your gown, shoes and accessories (have your bridesmaids do so as well). Box up your guest book, pen, unity candle and other ceremony accessories, and bring them to the rehearsal as well. You will be less likely to forget anything by calmly putting things together, rather than trying to grab everything on Saturday morning and rush out the door so you can be on time.Have
There is something about the spirit of man that denies total unconsciousness. There is something about the spirit of man that defies stagnation. Fight as we may, "You can't do that!" "You'd never achieve that!" "You're too old now!" "You're not good enough, bright enough, talented enough!" yet, we cannot hush the gentle whispers that come in more quiet moments. They vigilantly reappear like old friends, don't they?
You've felt that surge of hope at times. Someone taking time to believe in you, to remind you of your incredible worth. And, for a moment--a priceless moment in time--you believed, too. You smiled. You closed your eyes. You imagined. You hoped. Your dreams came alive again and the world was your oyster! And then you opened your eyes and your smile faded, your vision vanished, your hope disappeared.

Just before the close of business on Wednesday, Google announced that it will be launching Gmail, its new free e-mail service set to offer 1000 megabytes of free space to its users. This announcement comes after a flurry of changes at Google, all of which are geared to securing their place as the dominant search engine in light of recent competition offered by Yahoo! and soon MSN. The search engine wars have been predicted for some time now by search engine insiders, and the launch of Gmail is Google’s attempt to win the war before it gets fully started. But is Google really ready to take on the big portals?It is very unlikely that Google founders Sergey Brin and Larry Page had any idea exactly how big their original search engine (then called BackRub) would actually become. Google was an innocent project through Standford University. It was a project started in the days of optimism about a free Internet not supported by ads or corporate revenues, but rather the free exchange of ideas. As a result, they focused solely on product. There were no worries about creating a flashy inte

This is the moment when you are starting to like someone.The way of thinking of today’s generation is extremely different from the earliest age group. You try to ask your parents.

I decided to do just that in my own life. I took the risk and believed I was worth it. I got out there and I'm still out there. I am having the time of my life. No more, "I wish I'd done this" or "I wish I'd done that." I'm doing it. I'm being it. I untied the life-line--that which I erroneously held as my "needs" and cast off and set sail.
Dark, threatening skies loomed at times, close calls against rocky shoals, surging swells and thunderous storms came and went. That is true still, but (and what comes after but is the most important part of any statement) also there are billowing sails full of wind to travel onwar
