The average divorce rate in the US is between 40-50%. Why do I bring that up? Because the "divorce rate" among new hires and their employers is about the same!

Studies have shown that nearly half (46%) of new hires fail within the first 18 months due mostly to cultural incompatibility. Translation...people don't now what they want or what best suits them when it comes to their career. As a result of their lack of self-awareness they make poor career moves and often end up in unfulfilling,...

It's been well documented that stress contributes to, among other things, cardiac disease, high blood pressure, higher rates of illness, obesity and even depression.

It's also well known that stress is our constant companion. However, the good news is for most of us, through lots of practice, we can become our own experts at elevating our stress levels. But the ability to relax is an acquired skill.

Luckily, you can teach yourself to handle stress in a manner that minimizes...

Starting the Day Right

Whether you're heading out to the office and prepping to go downstairs to your home-based office, it's important to mentally and physically prepare yourself for a productive and successful work day.

It can be easier to get into a "morning routine" when you have to physically leave your home, but when all you have to do is walk to another part of your home from the comfort of your bed it can be a bit more challenging.

It’s tempting to wear your PJ’s or...

Remember when Samantha Jones in Sex and the City 2, announced she was going through menopause while in the midst of a devastating hot flash?

The Sex and the City movie had fun with this storyline, even though Kim Cattrall, the lady herself, hadn't start going through menopause until two years later. Regardless of her plight, Samantha created a plan of action to look and feel fabulous during "the change." She made menopause look fabulous...hot and sweaty...but fabulous.

I myself...

Wouldn't life be a lot more interesting and rewarding if you could just be a little more fearless? Easier said than done, right?

The alternative, however, is staying in your comfort zone which may be limiting, or even strangling your life. So, how can you work to overcome fear, step out of your comfort zone and live your best life?

Let me assure you that there's a brave and bolder person lurking inside of you, and all you need to is bring her out to play. As I always say, "confidence is...

You've heard the term, "work smarter, not harder" right? Well, what if you could actually make that happen?

The Perato Principle has already taught us that roughly 80% of our results come from just 20% of our work. Using this rule the first thing you can do is to cut time from areas of your life that aren't producing. Time wasters like getting lost on YouTube or Facebook, saying yes to activities that don't contribute value, or tasks that are outside of your...

Are you familiar with affirmations?

Fundamentally they're statements said with confidence about something you want to perceive as the truth. Affirmations have helped thousands of people make significant changes in their lives, and frankly I use them daily myself.

However, they don't always work for everyone. There are two reasons for this.

First, the negative affirmations you've said over the years are so deeply ingrained within your subconscious that they prevent you from shifting...

You ever notice how the week between Christmas and New Year is relatively quiet and peaceful? 

I love this time because it gives me space to reflect on the current year and set my intentions for the new year to come.

In so many ways 2018 was a life-changing year for me personally and in my business.

With regard to my business I gained greater clarity and focus, reached some epic revenue goals, and grew Team CPW by two. So as I look back over the year, while I didn't hit...

The holiday season can be a trying and depressing time for many people. While others are celebrating, you may be remembering a loved one you lost, opportunities never realized, and goals you didn't quite meet. In addition, unexpected troubles or news can arrive that may cause you to pause and ponder, "What's going on in my life right now?"

When things feel chaotic and both your patience and capacity for hope start to dim, consider reciting this affirmation to strengthen your mind and resolve....
