Coaching The Big Game Of Business

Summary: If you are a business owner you are the coach calling in the plays and working to defeat whatever it is that is in opposition to your winning the game. This could be working through your business plan, working through marketing issues, hiring new staff, developing new product lines and realizing that you are responsible for calling the plays – you can’t simply sit on the sidelines and hope things turn out all right. Imagine the football coach leading his team on the road to victory. Imagine this scene plays out in a movie. Music accentuates brave sound bites as men with black stripes under their eyes slam their hands against helmets and shout their agreement wit the coach. The music rises until the coach says, “Now, get out there and make me proud.” The camera pans the expectant crowd that erupts as their team files from the tunnel. Men in face paint begin to roar and the crowd is on its feet as their team takes to the field with the sounds of doubt-filled announcers pro...

Avoid Home Based Business Burnout

It is vitally important, particularly from a financial point of view, to have your HOME BASED BUSINESS up and running as quickly and as smoothly as possible. This generally leads to extended hours of toil both in minor and major areas, times of frustration, times of joy, and times when sleep and relaxation time are sacrificed. WORKING FROM HOME does not tend to allow you the luxury of packing up for the day, leaving the premises, and returning the next day. (I suppose you could, but you may have a problem in convincing your spouse and/or children that it is the thing to do!!) Working within the confines of your family home makes it far too easy to burn the candle at both ends. Sneaking in an hour or two (or three!!) of extra work before sunrise while the family is still enjoying a good nights sleep, or working away later in the evening and into the night while the Late, Late Movie is being screened. All this after having put in a full day of work, or prior to putting in a full day ...

How To Grow A Zen Child

When children are raised naturally, in keeping with their own true hearts, there is nothing that we need to teach them about Zen. In fact, the children then become our teachers, reminding us of what is important and expressing themselves naturally. To grow a Zen child, means to raise a healthy, expressive, creative child–a child easily in touch with who they truly are. This child is naturally curious about life, experiencing each day as an adventure, going to sleep happy at night. This is a child to whom sharing comes naturally, who can laugh when things are funny and cry when they’re sad, who is not terrified of the consequences of their behavior or focused unnecessarily upon reactions of adults. This child then becomes strong and stable, able to weather all kinds of conflicting demands and pressures. Actually, all of Zen practice comes simply to teach us how to become a child once again. Not how to become childish, but child-like, how to tap the natural knowingness and sponta...
