A woman leader who I’m working with asked me recently to describe to her why a responsive, rather than reactive, state of mind is essential for leadership. I have many examples of how leaders have blown it with colleagues, at team meetings and with direct reports by becoming reactive rather than responsive. But what came…
I’ve been coaching two sisters who have started their own business, helping the elderly stay in their homes. When we started, they described their lives as hectic and stressed. After learning about the Single Paradigm, they began to see big changes in themselves and in their business. “We were working seven days a week, sometimes…
I’ve recently encountered a number of people in the 3P community who have mentioned that they went through a rough patch, but then they realized it ‘was just my thinking.’ Sometimes they go onto say, ‘so I realized I needed to clear my head, or drop the thoughts, or think about something else.’ The statement ‘It’s…
Have you ever wondered why some leaders draw people to them, are good at decision-making, and gain your trust almost instantly? Other leaders, on the other hand, are difficult to get along with, engender a culture with high employee turnover, and make questionable decisions that negatively impact the future of the company?

It didn’t look that way to me at…
In my last newsletter, my blog was called “When you Say It’s Just My Thinking, What Are You Thinking?” One of the main points of that blog is that, when people say that, they’re often using their personal thinking to think about their personal thinking – a bit like a dog chasing its tail. This…
In the last ezine, the feature article was called “What’s Love Got to do With It,” and, with this ezine coming out just before Valentine’s Day, I’m thinking again about the connection between love and leadership. I think everyone would agree that relationships are fundamental to great leadership. Not just for the leader’s organization, but…
I’m struck over and over again by how, when people get introduced to the Principles of Mind Consciousness and Thought, they become more naturally present, and how, when people are present they experience love. Love is essential to leadership, because when you feel love, you naturally turn away from reactive patterns of thought. In a…
Almost everywhere you look, people are running from their feelings. Whether it’s shopping, eating, drinking too much or, in some cases, exercise – people go to great lengths to avoid the feelings they’re afraid of. I’ve even seen people try to use the ‘good feeling’ they get from listening to Sydney Banks, or 3P Practitioners,…
