    I got a little lost.  But Aimee found me and set me straight.

    This is a really busy time of year for me. Work consumes most of my attention, and I have little space in my schedule for anything else. For example, as happens every May, I’m currently fielding a ton of questions from graduating seniors who are looking for help with making decisions and managing the upcoming changes in their lives, usually involving employment or moving up to their next degree. I’m preparing presentations for colleges, service groups, corporations, and ot

    How to Think Clearly About Change and Transformation

    Among the current trends in change thought is a lively discussion about the relationship, and the differences, between change and transformation. One common position is that change and transformation are the same, and that the words change and transformation are synonymous. This position represents unclear thinking about change and transformation. The fact is, change and transformation are related, but different, phenomena. How do I know this?

    6 Practical Ways to Stay Motivated

    In my last blog, Need Motivation? Just Answer These Questions, I explained that motivation is the stimulation to act, and that since change is the result of things actually happening, what you are really looking for when you’re seeking motivation is a stimulant that will compel you to TAKE ACTION and DO something.

(You can get your own free copy of 12 Signs You’re Ready For A Change at my website, www.barbaradershowitz.guru.) Here’s what we’re talking about when we talk about motivation.
