What does it cost us when we avoid doing what needs to be done?

It is not that we are unaware of what needs to be done; we are quite conscious of what really needs to be done, then how come that we often don't do it anyhow?

If it comes to doing things that are uncomfortable, difficult or challenging then it is actually quite natural that we try to avoid doing these. The point is how far are we willing to go to avoid doing what needs to be done?Often these are things that are confrontational, eg. confronting our lack of stamina when we need to exercises, confronting our partner when we want to express our true feelings or even confronting ourselves to deal with things from the past.

We all want to know it...Do I have a Purpose in life?

We all want to find meaning in our lives and feel that we have a purpose. Humans are born with the need for a purpose, we long for it and we could say purpose is a fundamental component of having a happy and healthy life. Now we can say that is great, but how do we know that what we are doing is aligned with our purpose and if we have a purpose, why is it then so difficult to know what our purpose is?

Maybe SMART Goals Are Not All That SMART?

Most people are very interested in setting goals and how to reach them. Just type 'goal setting 'in a search engine such as Amazon or Google, and thousands of books and articles will appear. As a life coach, I like to set goals. My clients and I work together to develop strategies and tactics that help them to achieve their goals in life. Makes you wonder, If setting goals is so good, how could it possibly be bad? As with all things in life … it is not all bad, but it is certainly not all good either and it might be worse than you think...

For this week's episode I was inspired by something what one of my business coaches said. He said: "People always try to flatten out the waves of life" … I immediately thought that is so true … it fits what I always try to say too: you can't dictate how the waves go, but you can learn how to ride them. In other words you cannot always dictate the circumstances but you can choose how to react to them. Why is it that people, in vain, try to 'flatten the waves of life' instead of riding them?

Life can be difficult enough, but we may manage it better if we, beside activities that challenge us, also include activities that make us feel comfortable and relaxed. Although happiness is not everything, an overall feeling of happiness is OK; in the long run, it will make us healthier.

"To enjoy life is the best way to honor it." - unknown

While happiness seems to be a very personal feeling and different for each individual, there might also be a general formula that can be applied by all of us to live life more to the fullest.

We never directly experience reality, therefore our thoughts, feelings, actions, and reactions are always in response to the world as we see it

Anais Nin said it perfectly "We do not see things as they are; we see them as we are". With this she described exactly the role our beliefs play in shaping how we perceive the world. You might wonder why is this importante to me? Well, we limit our personal growth and create unneeded suffering for ourselves when we are convinced that our perspective is the only possible one.

The Hidden Pain Of The Lack of Imagination!

Albert Einstein said, “Imagination is more important than knowledge. For knowledge is limited to all we now know and understand, while imagination embraces the entire world, and all there ever will be to know and understand.” Through imagination, people can explore ideas of things that are not physically present...

But it goes further than that, more people than not are suffering from the lack of imagination. Many people feel that they have no or very limited creative ability, but very seldom do they know that the lack of creativity creates suffering in their life and the life of the people around them.

Wait what, there are not only 5 Love Languages, but also 5 Anger Languages?

The book “The Five Love Languages” by Gary Chapman has sold over 11 million copies and is frequently referred to by couples who are seeking “the secret to a love that lasts.”

When so many people buy into a concept and relationship counselors use it in their practice then it must be true.... but is it really? Is there actual proof that the 5 Love Languages actually help us to improve our relationships? This in itself is already an interesting question to me, but it also raises the question: if there are Love Languages are there then also Fight or Anger Languages? Well indeed, according to some there are also 5 Anger Languages.

Let's find out if these 'Languages' really help us in our relationships when we love and when we fight.

In this Episode of TELL: Wait what, there are not only 5 Love Languages, but also 5 Anger Languages?

Learning styles do not really exist. Yet, 90 percent of teachers in any field continue to believe in them

It is generally accepted that people learn better when they are taught in a method that suits their unique "learning style"—whether it be auditory, kinesthetic, visual, or a combination of the three. However  according to several studies, learners don't really benefit from their preferred learning style.

Despite this data, a significant fraction of people continue to hold onto the myth, including members of the general public, educators, and even those with a training in neuroscience.
