Apply A Strong Self to Your Physical Reality
Heal where you can’t touch,
...the machinations of the mind
apply it to you
see it in others
Take it forward
Now that you have a different but more logical and purposeful sense of life, I will lead you to apply it to your physical challenges. You will begin to see that adversity happens, not to punish or hinder you, but to give you an opportunity to use them to build knowledge, the only attribute or asset you will always have - even when you cannot display it. It is only with this new attitude that you will be able to face adversity comfortably and accomplish because you feel empowered rather than seek to feel empowered because of what you may have accomplished.

On Management and Stress
To tackle any problem, it is always expedient to first define the parameters that influence it. To manage life, therefore, one must be able to understand the stresses that make life challenging and the resources we need to apply ourselves successfully to those stresses. This is the act of management, a responsibility of every individual. It is a responsibility that becomes more apparent as we grow out of the protected state of childhood into the accountable position of adulthood. Stress! A Stress is a distortion of a situation from a state of equilibrium to one of temporary imbalance. It results when an activity changes existing conditions, and requires management, usually because it affects us, someone, or something for which we are responsible.

An Analytic Approach to Behaviour
Every individual, every human being is equal to every other in having the same responsibility to manage ourselves in this world of immense biological, mechanical and social activity. Every individual is equal to every other person in having the same two categories of management options. One is proactive management that comes when we have conscious, rational understanding of the situation to be managed.
The Chaos and Complexity Approach to Personal Management
If management can be defined as the process of reaching a state of equilibrium with a task or respon-sibility, then life as a whole is a management challenge! It is management because, in order to succeed or at the least survive, we are required to achieve an equilibrium with the many things and people that form our environment. It is a challenge because, regardless of how well we may have managed one issue, change creates a disequilibrium requiring another effort at success or survival. In order, there-fore, to be successful at any aspect of life - career, health, or relationships - we must first accept the responsibility as managers of our own lives. Then we must look at how this can be achieved most effectively in the highly volatile conditions we face today. READ MORE

Embracing your Experience
Wow! You are doing well! You have now completed Module Five. And this may be beginning to become a bit less tough, but you are beginning to see the application. You are now becoming the boss, not with physical power, but with understanding. You can begin to understand why there is turmoil and chaos, why bad things happen and how to meet disaster or challenges without fear. Now you just need practice. Life is full of barbs, not to hurt you, but to give you the opportunity to grow. Wow. What a wise and clever trick. You are learning to embrace it for what it is wortth. So you see? We are not showing you how to make your world safe or secure. We are showing you how to rise above the turmoil and insecurity.
You will soon manage so cleverly and so rationally that you will not want to go back. That! is the secret of our management of old behaviour. You so enjoy the beauty of yourself that you do not want to go back to what you did when you did not know you, or appreciate you. Now we will invite you to meet us so we can enjoy the new you and encourage you to keep moving forward if you wish and can afford to book a full session with us.
