On this day, I am pondering the trajectory of my life, my businesses, my relationships and how they have evolved over the past year. I am full of gratitude.

? Have I let go of my “controlling” nature – – of making things happen, regardless of the fallout? Yep, I’ve chilled out though still on the journey to create muscle memory around it. I practice the Positive Intelligence (PQ) operating system with PQ reps daily to reinforce this discipline. And, now teach it to others.

? Have I set my intention of how I want to show up in my life? Yes, again. I now practice PQ’s Innovation Cycle of accepting that others are at least 10% right, when I might disagree with them. This practice helps me avert energy-draining drama.

? One of my mantras is: “What others think of me is none of my business”. This growth mindset enables me to stand in my integrity and power, unapologetically.

Sure, things happen all the time that I may not be happy about. I’m just like you…you are just like me. The difference is how we decide to respond to conflict and life circumstances when things may not go our way.

? One of the greatest teachings in the PQ program is that everything, yes, everything may be converted into a gift or opportunity. This is NOT Pollyanna wishful thinking.

Building mental fitness helps re-wire our brains to create more positive energy and coping tools so that we perceive things in our lives differently.

Life is happening FOR me, not TO me. This way of thinking makes an incredible difference in how I view my day AND how I respond to others and life’s circumstances with more acceptance and calm.

I am learning how to surrender and let go, even without knowing how it will all turn out. How valuable is that, when we apply it to client attraction and service, team building, interpersonal relationships and, most importantly, with our relationship with ourselves.

Words defy how grateful I am to be on this journey with so many of you in my community. We strive for more, for greater connection, to create greater value in our work and in how we serve others.

The Positive Intelligence (PQ) program is one of the best tools I have discovered in decades to teach how to accept ourselves, our lives and our overall wellbeing or to convert it into amazing gifts and opportunities.

I’m energized to see what greatness lies ahead for me in the next year.

As #changemakers, we are always in a state of becoming. It’s our choice whether we follow our inner voice to keep moving forward or accept status quo.

Won’t you join me on this journey? To learn how to live up to your greatest potential.
