The weather!

I suppose being British I just had to do one blog about the glorious British weather.......

Feeling quite sad right now which I know will pass however, guess who decided to take advantage of the fact that there was a glorious hot Summer predicted earlier this year.....yes me and me dearest who have planned to go camping in North Wales for our Summer holiday.

The whole idea was to take the boys Kayaking, Abseiling, climb Snowdon, White water rafting - a lifelong ambition of mine, somewhere with beautiful scenery, mountains and beaches close by.....so North Wales fits the bill. Needless to say the forescast of more torrential downpours is what is causing me to choose to feel quite depressed. On the bright side at least there will be plenty of water for the white water rafting! I just wonder if we will need a kayak for the campsite?

Ok I think my NLP techniques need to be implemented on myself fairly quickly to get myself back to a positive state so that I can give as much as possible to the meeting I have planned with my fellow coaches from the Develop Your Child foundation. It's a celebration of our success and I want it to be awesome....

Have a fantastic weekend whatever the weather and keep smiling!

How good are you at creating effective relationships?

It strikes me that fundamental to our success in life are the relationships that we enjoy (or not) from the moment we enter this world. These relationships shape our personalities, the meanings we create, the states we get into, our physiology, the decisions we make and the results we achieve…….our life is influenced so much by the people we have in our life and choose to stay with or the people we choose to attract.

Building effective relationships affects us at home with our nearest and dearest, our friends, our colleagues and in business. Without good solid relationships built on trust then we are not as effective as we could be and rarely reach our true potential.

I’m just wondering why this was not covered as a subject at school? At least I don’t remember lessons in how to interact with others on a social and emotional level……do you?
It’s probably the reason for a growing need for coaching skills to be introduced to children and young people. How many young people do you know who would benefit from coaching to breakthrough the communication barrier and achieve even better relationships?

Perhaps it needs to be included in the school curriculum? What do you think? I’d be interested to hear the views of parents.

Until next time…….my time management is definitely improving!
