I am learning how to make my life better moment by moment. At this time we are being challenged to the extreme with our daughter fighting off a benign tumour and a weakened left arm from a biking accident. My husband lost his job Dec. 11, 2009. I have been disabled since 1981 and unable to work since 1999. My son is a busy guy who loves to talk and move all the time. Our lives could be bleak by some standards. I believe in all of the Castle Principles as they are similar to the 7 teachings of First Nations. In my humble awareness I believe that love is the way our world needs to embrace all of our relations. Long ago I lived on a northern trapline learning how to thrive within a timeless boreal forest on the shores of a clear cold lake. I felt the rhythm of the wild in the pulse beat of my heart. I was taught by many First Nation men about the wisdom of the lakes, rivers and forest. As it turned out I left the Masters in Science because what I had learned was how to authentically love wilderness as an integral connection within the chaos we call life. I am puzzled as to why I think of the past so often rather than moving forward. I wonder why are so many people suffering at this time. What is it that earth is trying to teach us? Relationships are changing at a rapid pace as are the practices of business as we know it. The industrial age gave us many of the leadership styles we see today in Canada: within Parks Canada, the RCMP, and the Canadian Armed Forces. The information age is inundating us with too much information, too many choices, too much of everything. How do we react? How do we choose wisely where to learn and put in our effective life skills to work for everyone's benefit? I suggest that we take a break. Give yourself some free time in the wilderness and feel its flow of life enter you as you become one with everything that is and could be. Breathe. Rest. Seek the gift of giving and receiving generosity among friends, family and strangers. Smile. Be happy. cindybl Good Morning!

And all human communication should be inspiring. If we can't say it in an inspiring way, then we should pause, and think it through until we can. Further, all our communications should be framed through Courage, Authenticity, Service, Truthfulness, Love and effectiveness - what I have called the CASTLE Principles. See www.secretan.com/one I agree with you completely. And all human communication should be inspiring.

Let me share some of my thoughts: It is ok to see tools & techniques in strategy books, but I rather prefer not to be too much dependent on those techniques that produce statistical results nearly close to 100. These are facts of the time investigated. According to me, Leadership is about change that involves human beings and the Nature. As we are still discovering these two, the way people will be led is destined to change. Thus, change is a continuous process and will happen as long as we live. So the question to be asked is: How can this be a +++++ process? According to me the answer is communication! As long as leaders (parents, presidents, bus drivers, teachers, as Lance Secretan mentions in his book of Inspirational Leadership that all of us are in leader position at some point in time) know how to communicate correctly with people, change will occur positively Learning how to communicate better is I think the greatest need. And once this is learned an important step will have been taken to an effective life. Ali Ferhat Esemen I agree with all Dr. Mercolas’ tips froe effective life.
