Hi Everyone! Welcome! I'm an Executive Coach and a Certified Life Coach working on expanding my practice. What specialists do you currently need to help your business expand and prosper?
Penelope Trunk
Warning. I'm about to do a very bad personal branding move. Do not try this at home....
I'm so sad today that I can't think straight. And I can't get any work done. But then I thought, well, maybe if I were chatting in my group then that would
1. distract me from being sad and
2. count as me working, since really, on some level, it is my job to be doing this group. I mean, even when we are talking about Lance's (questionable) dating tactics, it still counts as work for me.
Is anyone there?

Besides a lot of guys Are real Turds...
They feel that women are like cattle or property
and think who cares I'll just get Another one
I feel that what Ruins a lot of relationships Is smothering
It's You & I, and You & I that's all
Familiarity Can/Does Breed contempt
The Best policy Is to Each have time with Your own friends
as well as with each other
Hmmm... sounds like a Plan :-)

Take a few, then try to go in the office. If it's not working, leave. I find if work is busy it distracts me (thank god), but then smthing happens &I lose my shit. Week after week, though, I stay longer, get more done, &enjoy it more. I am so thankful my workplace is flexible enough that if I leave at 2pm, no-one bats an eye.
That said: I am so sorry. Obviously this doesn't in any way make YOU a less smart, witty, fun, desireable, loveable person.

Please support our book launch at http://www.ChangesOfTheHeart.com ! The book is by certified life coaches, and it focuses on helping people deal w/ life's challenges! We cover topics on making choices, managing weight, dealing with loss, becoming a CEO of your life, and much more. Thanks!
Putting myself out there... eep! My problem - I fail with interviews. I prepare, and know exactly what I want to say beforehand, but when I get in there I freeze, forget how to speak (seriously, it's embarrassing), and generally look like an absolute tool. Can anybody recommend any books/blogs I can read to help myself, or give me any good tips? I have no interviews in the near future, but this is something I need to deal with before I find a job I'd like to go for. Thanks for your time chaps!

Consider changing your "personal story". Don't think of yourself as someone who "fails interviews" and "forgets how to speak". Focus on the times when you pass interviews or such; focus on the times when you prove a point, win an argument, demonstrate contageous passion. What sets those times apart from interviews? How can you embody those positive moments and bring them to the interview with you? We can talk more if you want; e-mail me at info@alinabas.com
