JumpStart - If You Spot It, You Got It
Thursday Nov 12, 2020
Thursday Nov 12, 2020
Ever heard of the Johari Window?
Back in the 1950s Joseph Luft and Harrington Ingram proposed the concept that our psyche’s are like a 4-paneled window.
The panels coincide with our ability to see (and not see) certain aspects of our personalities.
- So, if there are parts of our personalities we cannot see…
- And, other people see these hidden aspects…
- How then do we address and change if we’re ignorant to some of our shortcomings
There’s a simple solution and here it is > >

JumpStart - Veteran’s Day
Wednesday Nov 11, 2020
Wednesday Nov 11, 2020
Jesus said, “Greater love hath no one than they would lay down their life for others.”
- Every veteran, regardless of whether or not they died in service, has laid down their life for others
- Every life has been touched by friends and family in military service
- Can you “imagine” a day when we honour only veterans who served in the past because human beings no longer need to have armed conflicts?
Today, we honour veterans of the past, present, and ideally, a limited future.
You may say I’m a dreamer but I’m not the only one > >

JumpStart - Changing the Stories in Your Head
Tuesday Nov 10, 2020
Tuesday Nov 10, 2020
Have you seen the T-shirt that says, “I do what the voices in my head tell me to do”?
People laugh at that because it’s uncomfortably true.
Human beings are storytellers. That is what’s kept our species alive but it is also the source of every human struggle.
- Why do we tell ourselves stories?
- Why did the stories in our heads tend to be negative?
- How can we become proactive in creating better stories?
Let me show you how starting today

JumpStart - How to Let Other People’s Stuff Go
Monday Nov 09, 2020
Monday Nov 09, 2020
Energy Vampires!
We all have them; people who:
- Their very presence just drains you
- Live in perpetual drama and trauma
- Seem to always reel you in to their stuff
People are energetic beings and when we’re with others our energy seeks stasis.
That is, our energy seeks to match the other person’s energy and we need to prepare ourselves from people whose energy can bring us down -- starting NOW!
Let me show you how > >

JumpStart - Avoid this One Thing in Every Disagreement
Saturday Nov 07, 2020
Saturday Nov 07, 2020
It’s amazing how fast we can go from a disagreement to an argument, isn’t it?
Disagreements help us achieve greater levels of understanding if work through our positions however, an argument/fight is something totally different.
If you’ve ever seen an argument slip off the rails today I’m going to tell you how to avoid this by
- Being mindful of your longterm desired outcome
- Always staying on your own side
- Helping the other person stay on their side as well
Here’s how > >

JumpStart - Becoming More Optimistic
Thursday Nov 05, 2020
Thursday Nov 05, 2020
For some strange reason, people think optimists are naive when, in truth, optimism is actually grounded in reality.
Optimists:
- Always have something look forward to (rather than fret about)
- Expect problems but know they’ll handle whatever comes along (just like always)
- Are MUCH HAPPIER than pessimists
Let me show you how to become more optimistic starting right now > >

JumpStart - Feeling Poll-arized?
Wednesday Nov 04, 2020
Wednesday Nov 04, 2020
In these unprecedented times, voting has never been more crucial.
And unfortunately, people in the U.S. seem to be caught wondering, “Are our politics divisive because we’re divided? Or, are we divided because politics is so divisive.”
On this Election Day, let’s look at:
- How we can see beyond the banners to the humanity that lies within
- How to deflect rather than respond to an attack
- How politics uses ALL aspects of complaining to motivate people and gain power
Let me help you understand, contextualize, and come to peace with elections

JumpStart - Letting Go
Friday Oct 30, 2020
Friday Oct 30, 2020
It’s been wonderful tailoring these JumpStarts to the requests from you, our daily JumpStarters, because I’m discovering we’re all struggling with similar issues such as today’s topic: Letting Go.
The pandemic has changed everything and forced us to rethink our direction as individuals, a country, and as a world.
We’re struggling to let go of the direction we thought we were heading.
Today learn how:
- A lost sand sculpture is a great metaphor for life
- You and I are like monkeys being trapped by our own unwillingness to let go
- How positive thinking really works and how to apply it when letting go
- The role of forgiveness in letting go
Let me show you how to let go of what’s holding you down, starting now > >
