by

Career-Master-Plan-Mindmap

This past week, I worked with one of my clients from the career coaching program to create her career master plan.

She is a young, smart, and motivated entrepreneur finding her way in this world. She has lots of great ideas with plenty to offer the world.

What we needed to do for her was to build her career master plan with a mind map through brainstorming, idea organization and categorization.

We decided to accomplish this using the most powerful tool I know, a method that I have often used with clients, students as well as in my own projects, that of mind mapping! [Read more…] about The Power of Mind Maps to Build Your Career Master Plan

Indispensable Pro Travel Planning Tools

London Bus - City Sights and Sounds

Despite my travel record, what with 100,000 flying miles last year again to get executive platinum and my love affair with setting foot on foreign soil, you might find it ironic that I am mainly a novice when it comes to travel tools, hacks, and systems!

The Power of Human Connection

Social media has redefined the Power of Human Connection.
For those of you who live a perfectly normal life, unaffected by the deafening thunderstorm that is social media, I would describe it as a way to connect instantly with people of similar likes and interests (or complete opposites of the spectrum, you choose) anywhere in the world through online systems and applications.

That means carrying on conversations with a new friend in Egypt while answering a question to a peep in Paris and figuring out the best route to Tokyo from Narita Airport with your new best buddy in Japan. It means knowing how a marathon for a friend turned out in San Francisco and watching the streams of feedback coming out of a keynote speech live in Las Vegas in case you are missing it. It means being there to sympathize with a tragedy, to show support when needed, to pull someone through a problem and to help someone with a dilemma.

It is powerful beyond measure and it can change your life. Develop, grow and engage with your network (affiliate). [Read more…] about The Power of Human Connection
