2. ON ANGER ______________________________________________________ If you were raised as I was, you would have been told to suppress your anger when it arises. So when it arose, I learned to “push it down”, but it continued to fester and never really abated. My suppressed anger resurfaced as passive aggression, unskillful words or actions and sometimes an outburst of rage. What I have learned from spiritual teachers is that anger is never just anger – it is a “concrete, visceral experience, sometimes tightness or pressure,” and my strongly believed thoughts. The Coach is learning . . . that my thoughts are not The Truth. ______________________________________________________3. ON A NEED International speaker/author, Brenda Bence, in her new personal branding book, “How you are Like Shampoo,” defines Need as a problem that requires a solution, or a problem that is currently not being met well enough in the marketplace, and/or a new problem that we didn’t even know existed. She cites Crest as being the first toothpaste after WWII to respond to better cavity protection, Apple designed a more user friendly computer. Gillette developed a razor to provide a closer shave. And Howard Schultz brought us Starbucks to give us 20 minutes back in our day. The Coach asks . . . do you know what your audience, your customer, your partner needs? _____________________________________________________4. ON GEMMELSMERCH Edward Hallowell, M.D., author of Crazy Busy, defines gemmelsmerch as the force that distracts us from what we want or ought to be doing. Some examples:
The Coach agrees . . . that we need to figure out what matters most to us and do what matters most to us. DON’T GET SIDE- TRACKED. ______________________________________________________ 5. ON WISE WORDS Here are a few wise words and ideas to apply to your life.
The Coach likes this one . . . “When everything's coming your way, you're in the wrong lane.” _____________________________________________________6.
