One of the great truths that I’ve discovered is that we cannot get along with anyone else any better than we get along with ourselves.
If we are struggling in our relationship with others, we first need to reconnect the relationship with ourselves in a positive way.
The opposite of this is true as well: you get along better with yourself when you get along better with others.
So, how do we start?
Learn how in this JumpStart…

JumpStart - The Original “F Word”
Monday Dec 13, 2021
Monday Dec 13, 2021
My poor parents!
Raising 3 boys was hard enough but always having to try to treat each of us fairly was a near impossibility.
And believe me, we registered our displeasure when one of us was not being treated equally to the others.
Fairness is an important concept for human beings.
As soon as we realize that we are not being treated on par with someone else, we feel slighted even if what we are receiving is exactly what we wanted.
Fairness is not to be confused with social justice.
Fairness is an equal measure for everyone and that is simply never going to happen.
When we accept that fair is the original f word, we lose our capacity for being upset when things don't equal out our way...

“Here…this is yours.” My dad said handing Me the keys to my latest new car.
Then he said what he always said whenever he gave me something, “you don't deserve it.”
That feeling of not deserving what I want has been a real millstone around my neck for most of my life.
I was thinking about this the other day and I looked up the word deserving.
I was surprised at what I found.
If you ever struggle with feeling you deserve good things in your life, then I'm going to share with you some ways to realize your true value.
Remember, anything you desire, you deserve…

JumpStart - Square One
Friday Dec 03, 2021
Friday Dec 03, 2021
Yesterday, I had the good fortune to sit down and talk with an old friend I haven't seen in decades.
Each of us had kept up with some people we knew but neither one of us knew the full story of our other friends and so we shared the details we had.
It was interesting to hear how my friends' lives had taken twists and turns and how often they, like me, have had to start over again at Square One.
We think that starting over is an indication of failure when in reality it is a supreme opportunity.
If you find yourself at a crossroads right now open (and who doesn't), then let's celebrate starting over on day one.

JumpStart - Jealousy VS Envy
Thursday Dec 02, 2021
Thursday Dec 02, 2021
The other day I was talking to someone about jealousy and I was using the word “envy” as a synonym for “jealous.”
My friend said that envy and jealousy are not the same.
He explained that jealousy can actually drive a person forward to achieve and to obtain what they want.
Envy, on the other hand, envy is more like coveting and does nothing but make us feel bad.
Jealousy says, “I want what you have!”
Envy says, “How dare you have what I want?”
If you’re ready to start using jealousy as a motivator rather than being stuck in your tracks by envy, let’s help you get started now…

JumpStart - Getting Slapped
Wednesday Dec 01, 2021
Wednesday Dec 01, 2021
Did you know that long before he got into martial arts, Bruce Lee was a childhood movie star?
Not only that, Bruce Lee was a street thug who walked around picking fights who only got into martial arts after taking on some victims who were strong enough to fight back.
Part of Lee’s training was a super-close form of fighting where combatants square off just inches from one other and attempt to slap one another while also trying to block their opponent's slaps.
It was during this training that Bruce Lee learned the most vital lesson of his life.
Do you feel like you’re getting slapped down by life?
In this JumpStart, I’ll teach you how to deal with life’s slaps so that they become less frequent and also hurt less.
Here’s a hint: when you put a “d” in front of “anger”, you get DANGER!

JumpStart - Rewind
Tuesday Nov 30, 2021
Tuesday Nov 30, 2021
There’s a wonderful moment in Hamilton, where the Skyler sisters sing a song, and in the middle, they shout “rewind” and the stage itself slowly spins like a record album in reverse.
The characters all end up momentarily back in the past where they relive a previous scene from the musical but with a very different outcome.
This scene is a powerful reminder that we all have things we’ve done in the past we’d like to revisit -- sometimes to enjoy but more often in a desire to correct something we’ve done.
Wayne Dyer put it so well when he said “Life doesn’t come with a rewind button” and if that’s the case, we can only make the past better by making the present the best it can be.
Here’s how…
