Top 3 Mindful Tips for a Happy and Successful 2018

1) STUDY YOURSELF. Get to know yourself. Your REAL self. Who are you? Not your name, or your profession, or your title ... or whether you’re someone’s wife or husband, father or mother, daughter or son. What do you value? What motivates you? Know what is happening in your mind.

2) FORGET YOURSELF. Dōgen Zenji, the founder of the Soto Zen School said,  “To study the self is to forget the self. To forget the self is to be enlightened by all things.” If you get to know the contents of your mind, you will begin to forget yourself. Instead of being stuck in your old stories and paralyzing behavior, pay attention to what is right in front of you and you will naturally and holistically act on it or interact with it.

3) BE ENLIGHTENED BY ALL THINGS. Released by the prison of your own small, self-involved set of endlessly repeating thoughts, you are free to engage with all things. Rather than worrying about finding a job or a better job, mindfully engage with what's happening now. You may consider positions you hadn't considered before or see new opportunities to contribute value on your current job.

Start now! Who are you? Who do you want to be? Just asking those questions will prime the pump of the next action.

    About Me

    I was intrigued from the first moment I read the bold claim accredited to Socrates that "the unexamined life is not worth living" and it has been a touchstone throughout my life. And, through the power of hindsight, I see its influence powering many of my career choices and life activities.

    Socrates’ unequivocal statement is at the heart of who and why I am a writer. It drove my study of philosophy in college; powered an ongoing personal commitment to spiritual, religious, and theological immersion—including 20 years of dedicated study and practice in Buddhism and meditation/mindfulness training. And—most importantly—it motivates my concern for my clients, as a career coach and resume writer.

    I was inducted as a Sensei (teacher) and Lay Minister with the Bright Dawn Center of Oneness Buddhism in 2006 and currently serve as Senior Ministry Faculty member.
    Additionally, I have trained as a teacher in the Unified Mindfulness Teacher Training Program and offer mindfulness coaching as an additional tool for my clients.

    As a 5 Steps to Rapid Employment Master Coach, Certified Professional Behavioral Analyst (CPBA), Certified DISCstyles™ Communication Consultant (CDCC), Certified Professional Resume Writer (CPRW), and ProfilingPro's only DISC Advisor and Coach, I use DISC assessments as a tool to “examine” my clients’ communication styles and behavioral strengths, because I have seen how DISC assessments and companion behavioral and communication coaching can make a significant positive difference in the careers and lives of my clients.
