    A road map to happiness.

    An Article in the New Zealand Herald today caught my attention, Mirko Bagaric a professor of law at Deakin University in Victoria, explains that this kind or economic downturn is not as bad as we may be thinking. His rationale is that it mostly hits the rich and really points out that happiness is not...

    Change, Recession, and Delays

    I've been thinking lately about undisclosed motives, hidden agendas, and different values. Take President Obama's stated intention for a bipartisan solution to the economic crisis we're facing here in the U.S. Everyone's tired of the partisan bickering in Washington, which the media are...

    Let go of old thought patterns.

    I have just read a blog by Doug Norby, Host of the Guy Finley Aliveworld community and the theme really clicked for me. Personally being able to change the way our inner thoughts can drive us makes sense These thoughts are often those that served us at some past time but may not be working in harmony...

    Today we have a good example of an organisation seeking to take advantage of the power of the internet to support people wanting change in their lives. Agape International Spiritual Center in Los Angeles, CA, opened their AUM Learning Channel here in Aliveworld with the publication of their first Guide...

    Change is the breath of life

    Something today reminded me of the words from a song that went more or less like this: "I accept myself, just the way I am, there's nothing I need to change." Remembering this set me to pondering. I think it's important to accept that I am what I am, rather than beat myself up for not...

    Is change possible? With hope, yes.

    OK, so I can get quite passionate about change being both a necessity and an obligation. The obvious next question is can I do it? I recall a dinner party conversation in London over 20 years ago with a medic who argued that change was impossible -- people can't change, people don't change. Depressing...

    Is change an opportunity or an obligation?

    I've been listening to Seth Godin's latest book Tribes which is very focused on the fact that change is happening all over the place and happening fast. The book is a call to leadership, a call for modern day heretics to step up and lead tribes through the process of change. One thing that struck...

    Is change a luxury or a necessity?

    Far more energy goes into maintaining the status quo than in trying to bring about change. This is part of what worries me about the election of Obama in the USA -- his ticket may have been the need for change, but he too will have to battle against the forces all around him intent on maintaining things...
