If you know me then you know that I can be a workaholic. While it has significantly improved over the last five years or so, I still have these tendencies. I can get pretty preoccupied with my work and it can become the central theme in my life. I am a “doer” and my days and thoughts are full of the things I should be doing or need to do, and I often worry that I’m not doing enough. I can spend a lot of time thinking about projects, clients and potential ideas.

When you look at my career you will see that I started out in personal development teaching public seminars then moved into professional training and development. From there, I moved into leadership development to organizational and talent development. You will also see that I’ve lived around the US and in Paris where I was an executive and the head of a large global function.

Are you making your world small? Do you feel limited or do you feel like your options are limited? What if limitation is an illusion of the mind?

Where we come from, inside ourselves, matters. It shapes everything that happens afterwards. It shapes, what we see as possible; it shapes our choices, our understanding, our perspective, our communication, and ultimately our actions. Where we come from, is our starting point.
