So, you're struggling to get motivated? You need to recognize that if you’re not feeling motivated, its not just your physical energy but your mental energy, as well. And mental energy becomes drained when you (whether you realize it or not) are avoiding stuff that you really "should" be doing.

When you see perfectionism in others and see the results of perfectionism, you would probably have a hard time believing that perfectionism could be holding so many people back. Truth is, perfectionism is holding many people back in a lot of ways. When you see a perfectly clean home, a perfect workplace report, and a perfect garden you can't help but envy the perfectionist. Perfectionism takes time; it takes a lot of time to make things perfect, and not only does it cost you a great deal of time, but it is also costing you mental well-being and happiness.

Leadership is about inspiring the heart and minds of people to be their best and do what needs to be done (even when they do not want to).

Leadership and management are different, but both are necessary for your business to be successful; however, for any organization to be successful, particularly in times of uncertainty.

Most people start smoking at a younger stage of life where, maybe, they're under a lot of stress. There's a lot of uncertainty, a lot of self-doubt. They don't feel self-confident in themselves.

They stay on the wagon so long as life doesn't get in the way.

I once had a therapy client who told me she bought an exercise bike about six months prior to coming in for some one on one coaching. As is the fate of most exercise bikes, treadmills, and gym equipment, it just sat there getting dusty. So she was thinking about getting rid of it. The reason was that she lacked the energy or motivation to use it and wanted to know how to get back into that mindset to lose weight.

Beings, like other mammals, were never meant to be solitary creatures.

Part of the problem can be resolved by learning how to better communicate and express yourself, so that way you're less likely to attract the wrong kind of person.
