Self-Esteem is Not What You Think it is!

Have you ever met someone who appears self-assured and certain of who they are, and you thought to yourself, “That person has self-esteem?” Well if you answered “yes” you are not alone. We often mistake confidence for self-...

Have you ever met someone who appears self-assured and certain of who they are, and you thought to yourself, “That person has self-esteem?” Well if you answered “yes” you are not alone. We often mistake confidence for self-esteem, where in fact they are two different animals born of the same mom. Real self-esteem does not come from how we think about ourselves or what we say about ourselves, it comes from how we act–how we behave. It comes from doing Esteemable Acts.
This provocative and instructive program will introduce you to a new and fresh approach to building self-esteem.

You Can't Change What You Can't See!

It’s hard to change something unless you know it needs changing. Depending on who we are or where we are in our lives, success can be defined in any number of ways. Yet, regardless of how it’s defined, one ingredient to creating a ...

It’s hard to change something unless you know it needs changing. Depending on who we are or where we are in our lives, success can be defined in any number of ways. Yet, regardless of how it’s defined, one ingredient to creating a successful life is a willingness to see the truth of a situation–even if that means seeing the truth in us.
Oftentimes what stands between us and success is US–our attitudes, behaviors, beliefs, or old ways of doing things. Having the courage to see past our little feelings, to what needs to be done, is a mark of true character and the first step toward living a successful life. Having the courage to see ourselves clearly is an essential tool for successs, not only in our personal lives, but in business. Self-examination is life transforming.

Protecting Your Valuable Intellectual Property in the Internet Age.

Confusion about copyright law isn’t new. Yet the explosion of electronic communications in all forms—from the World Wide Web to podcasts to digital music players to personal and professional blogs—have blurred traditional intellectual property ownership guidelines and boundaries in unforeseen ways.
For example, do you believe:

•  Registration is the key to protecting your copyrights?
•  Copyright law doesn’t apply to material found on the Internet?
•  Boilerplate agreements found on the Internet are good enough to use?
•  You can be sued in a foreign country for something said on your website?
•  Copyrights last forever as long as you renew them?
•  If you hire a ghostwriter to write your book, you own all the rights to that book?
•  You can use quotes as long as you give the author credit?
If you answered “yes” to any of the above, interested in learning what you need to know to protect your valuable creative works of art and authorship, and to avoid being sued for infringement, then this might be the most important session you ever attend.
