Lately the red thin line in many discussions with clients is about fitting in or being true to yourself. It seems like people feel they need to choose between being entirely themselves and between blending in the society/work environment/friend groups/neighbourhoods, etc. While in reality one does not exclude the other. My entire life I felt […]
What about the others?
Last week I had an interesting conversation with a friend who was complaining about other people treating her badly or even being disrespectful. She was so sensitive about a few recent situations that she even got into tears because of people not appreciating her and not showing her a certain level of respect. After a […]
Enough is Enough
How often do you feel being something sort of not enough – not enough beautiful/smart/sexy/perfect? How often do you keep improving yourself by various studies/practices/courses? How often do you keep running in constant improvement circle forgetting what was your starting point? Well, I don’t know how about you but I kept going strong in this […]
Happiness intervention
Once I had a very interesting discussion with a friend about why very often sad and miserable people get more attention than the happy ones. Yes, you read it right sadness vs. happiness.

However all of this changed within last three years and before Robin Sharma published his 5 AM club […]
The game of positivity
Have you ever noticed the great paradox of life – being negative does not take any effort in the meantime staying positive requires qute a bit of sweat? Convenient laziness I meet many people who constantly complain, blame others and are high caliber victims. It’s not because their life is somehow worse but because, in […]
The sweet taste of freedom
It is surprising how in this free world some of us choose to be restrained. Most of the people with whom my paths have crossed haven’t yet decided to be completely free. I am not talking about super serious stuff and dependencies/additions to people/things/habits. I am talking about something “simple” – inner freedom to ALLOW […]
The power of conversations
