Be Your Own Wingman: November 2011
http://beyourownwingman.blogspot.com/2011_11_01_archive.html
Be Your Own Wingman. Sunday, November 27, 2011. My car died thanksgiving morning as I returned from my morning walk in the woods. And so began my day of giving thanks. As a flood of negative thoughts invaded my mind, the one that made the most sense to me at that moment was a practice I developed and speak about with my individual coaching clients and at corporate training presentations. As I had been walking with a trusted friend and wingman, I didn't have to wait long. How can I see a positive when my ...

Be Your Own Wingman. Wednesday, April 25, 2012. The Reality of the Situation. 8220;You’re not seeing the reality of the situation”, I was told the other day as I was intentionally focusing on finding the positives. 8220;But it’s not real.” As if I didn’t hear him the first time…. The power of small simple practices can not be over estimated and I’m surprised at how easy and natural it has become. I’m also well aware of how much more practice is needed. And so I continue. In only 10 days. A trusted wingma...

Be Your Own Wingman. Tuesday, December 13, 2011. The Law of Inertia. The Law of Inertia declares,. 8220;an object in motion stays in motion, an object at rest stays at rest.”. This scientific law was explained by Sir Isaac Newton in the late 1600s and is considered his first law of motion. It's also a very apt description of our lives. It is the reason when things are going great in my life, and in yours, it is easier to keep it going great. Of course it follows, the worse it gets, the worse it gets.

This beloved comedy stars Bill Murray as Phil Connors, a self centered, obnoxious TV weatherman who, much to his distress, must go to Punxsutawney, Pa. for the annual ritual of the groundhog coming out and "predicting" the weather. He begins to realize he can change his day by changing his attitud...

Be Your Own Wingman. Tuesday, July 31, 2012. 8220;May I clean your windshield”? This past Friday, I stopped to fill my car up with gasoline and had the opportunity to be served by a young man who clearly makes it a practice of “Going the Extra Mile”. Interestingly, on Saturday, having returned home from an all day conference, I naturally asked my wife about her day. “I had a really great day” she smiled. “You know how we discussed going the extra mile? My new practice is easily defined. At least once...
