Spring Brings Sense

Spring brings with it many opportunities.  Because it is the time to get refreshed and plant new seeds, watch growth in nature, an abundance of seminars crop up to help us learn and grow.  Whether for business, personal needs, money, health or do-it-yourself workshops - they all have an intended purpose - to make us better. 

Having recently connected with this dynamic and focused individual, I would like to share with you some local free seminars that are taking place in the next few weeks.  Hope that you can use this information.

Post other interesting workshops or seminars here to share with others!

The Voice of Purpose

Leaders who use the voice of purpose...
....aren’t easily distracted from the intended path.


Their drive and determination fuel their ambitions,
not for themselves, but for those they lead.

Spring Reading

I Love to Read! Here are two of my favourite books for Spring.  I re-read them each year to get me in the Spring-mood.  I find the stories are wonderful, that love blooms like Springtime and it takes me away to an adventure in a time that seemed to enjoy the nature we were given in all it's wonder.
Have you read them before?

I also love to see the movies and catch them whenever I can.  I even have them on VHS and DVD!

Spring Can Be Everyday

What make you feel Spring is in the air?
Is it the melting snow or the drizzly rain?
Is it the buds on the trees or the flowers in bloom?
Is it the new clothes that are in the shops waiting to be worn?
Is it returning from your Winter holiday, knowing that you can now enjoy the last few cold days ahead, because the warm sun has reached your core and you can handle anything?

Spring can be everyday.  All you need to do is hold onto that excitement that flutters around in your belly when you are thinking of how you will plant your garden, or start to play baseball or soccer, or when you get out for your first run of the Spring in the sunshine. 
Take that feeling with you everyday. 
Think about it everyday. 

The spring in your step will keep Spring with you...always!

Find Health

Personal Growth can come in many forms - reaching goals, managing time or quite simply, finding health.
Health itself, can be divided into a few categories:

• muscle tone
• cardiovascular health
• lower cholesterol
• reduce weight
• eating healthy food
• eliminating stress
• sleeping enough

So many ways to find health.  To not look at a healthy lifestyle as part of personal growth would be like leaving out brushing your teeth and still expecting fresh breath.  You need to deal with the whole person.  Eating healthier,  creating a more active lifestyle will help increase your energy, reduce stress and propel your towards your goals in a quicker manner. 

Take care of the whole you. That is how you show up in life - one person, one mind, one body - not multiple parts that you can discount or leave aside!

4 Steps to a Clear Vision

Which way are you going?
Do you have a clear vision....can you see in your mind's eye, the steps along the way to success?
If not, here are a few things to try:

1. take a moment to write out your goal and how you will feel when you reach it
2. write out the steps to your goal - what are the incremental steps, that when put together will get you to your end result
3. write out your obstacles - anything that you think could get in the way of success and plan how you will overcome this - that way when it hits (if it hits) you are prepared and will not be thrown off course
4. write out exactly what success would look like so that you will recognize it when you get there

You can also do this while driving - not the writing part, just the list-making in your head.
It also helps to share this with someone who can give you an objective point of view, providing more insight and ideas.

Let me know how it goes!
