  • Self-Improvement

    Hajer Rikabi, President and Founder, Thrive Coaching CORP

    As a human I can't imagine life without the self-improvement. Self improvement is a human nature since ever, it's overlapping in every aspect in our lives. From the basics of the life like the way we talk, walk, eat and deal to the life improvement level education, goals, relationships. MORE >

    Self improvement is the way of wanting things, people and life to be better in every way we can control. It is the learning to new things to add to our life's basket. The basket that we have to take a look at once in a while to decide it's time to clean, and when cleaning happens we are freeing space to add new things to go well in our life right now in this stage.

    As to my basket it took me a while to see and another while to understand that I need to clean it. When I found that basket It was heavy and big like I was dragging a big tent behind me, and because of it's heavy wight sometimes I just sit by it and cry. After I was done with the crying that happened many many times, I decided to take a look at it from a curious mind, just like a child when exploring the kitchen.

    That's not mine, and that , and that, long pause and realized nothing in there belong to me. So I decided to place everything where it belong and to whom, learned about myself and what I like. Like I am a whole new person and found my way to improve myself to what I value and what really belong to me.

    SOO What's in your basket?

  • The Comfort Zone Illusion-Solving the Mystery

    Susan Neustrom, Ed.D., Leadership Coach, Author, Speaker, Educator, Leading to Action

    Are you ready for change? Are you a leader embarking on change within your organization? Whether change is planned or unplanned, more than likely you and your team need to step outside your comfort zone and do something different. However, leaving your comfort zone is frightening and fear can stifle growth, halt progress, and negatively impact behavior making you feel as if you lost control, stuck, and not moving forward. When implementing transformational change in an organization leaders are challenged with getting everyone excited and motivated about new ways of working. Often times, leaders are met with resistance, complaints, and frustration because people are being asked to step outside their comfort zone. Change upsets routine and structure and opens the door allowing fear to enter and demonstrated in thoughts and action. Of course, it doesn’t need to be this way because the comfort zone is really an illusion. MORE >

    This presentation unravels the mystery of the comfort zone to expose the stark reality of the discomfort of change. Therefore, enabling leaders to discover why leaving your comfort zone is so difficult, what creates fear during times of change, and how to develop strategies for engagement and empowerment that eliminate the fear of leaving your comfort zone and to view change through a new lens.
