Your Emotional Energy is Your Responsibility

The only person who can manage your emotional and mental energy is you.
Only you can manage your stress (most stress is self-imposed anyway).
Only you can manage your resilience.
Only you can manage your mix of work and personal life energies.
Others may influence your thinking but you are totally in charge of how you respond.

These core principles underly my forthcoming Lifestyle Review workshop, Thursday 4th March 2010, 9 30 am – 1.30 pm Norths Rugby Leagues Club, 12 Abbott Street Cammeray NSW
And also in Adelaide: Wednesday 14 April, 9am- 1pm at the Education Development Centre Milner Street Hindmarsh

Go to www.workleisure.com/Workshop.html for full details and a registration form.

I provide a positive, thought-provoking small-group environment in which you focus entirely on your strengths, talents and potential and come to your own unique personal decisions.

When you lose yourself in an interest you love, you find yourself.Only you know how to enjoy yourself. My expertise is in helping you re/discover the Enjoyment Factors that drive your life’s energy.

I can’t give you the energy you need right now, but I can teach you how to find your own energy anytime you need it.

Acknowledge you are responsible for all of your life choices. Choose this workshop to re-evaluate your natural-born talents, skills and the passions that drive and sustain your long-term potential for true life success.

But you must act now! Max 12 places and there’s only a few places left!

I look forward to having you share in what is always a supportive, friendly session.
(A frequent compliment I get is “Peter is a really good listener”!)

Creating Positive Human Behaviour

You are privy to getting some inside information on a different slant I am taking with my lifestyle mentoring business: Work Leisure International - go to http://www.workleisure.com. My theme of growth and maximizing potential through enjoying being your authentic self is perhaps better understood when considered in terms of the way we achieve positive human behaviour - at work, at home, or at play:

1. The Brain processes information gained from selected available data
2. Energy - physical and mental - drives this process
3. Products of this energy include heightened self esteem, creativity, enthusiasm, commitment, skill development, innovation and, last but not least, increased productivity
4. The outcome of this is growth - personal and corporate
   

Integral to the process are enjoyable emotions, good feelings and hopes (expectations of future benefits).

My trigger for building positive (rather than negative) human behaviour is through injecting what I call "The Enjoyment Factor". Compare the productivity levels of a project you enjoyed and one you didn't enjoy. When you lose yourself in an interest you love, you find yourself - the authentic you comes alive. Focusing on any interest you passionately enjoy - even for a few minutes - creates a positive ripple effect through the whole of the four stages listed above.

Do you relate to the process?

If you are going through a bad time you might perhaps see the process in reverse - your growth slowing, productivity dropping, mental energy down and experiencing sluggish processing of information.

Your comments on the above would be greatly welcomed and read with interest.
