Living Golf ~ A Passion for the Game

by Gil Anderson

Passion is a powerful force that motivates and effectively enables a connection with any desired accomplishment. As long as heartfelt passion endures, even the most difficult of endeavors can be conquered.

The game of golf has something within it that brings us to a higher ground of self-realization. It instills and supports a passionate desire to expand and overcome our inadequacies. As the spirit of the game unfolds, we are able to come closer to a depth of holistic consciousness that further reveals the it factor. We realize the connection through its infinite nature that resides within the eternal spirit flowing through all things. Read more...

Realize There is Truth in the Truisms

August 8th, 2011

REALIZE THERE’S TRUTH IN THE TRUISMS.

In other words, have faith in the hackneyed expressions:

Never Give in to Fear

June 2nd, 2011

Courage is not the absence of fear, it is resistance to fear. Courage is the conscious decision to move through the fear toward the objective. James holds a supervisory position at a medium-sized professional firm. He is frequently called upon to do presentations to staff and clients, but makes every effort to avoid these speaking opportunities. James suffers from fear of public speaking, but will not admit it, even to himself. He chooses to bury the fear in denial. When on rare occasions he is forced to speak before a group, he dreads it, and suffers immeasurably before, during, and after the event. Read more...

Attitude of Gratitude

By Marti MacGibbon, CADC II, ACRPS

Attitude is everything. Gratitude is the ultimate attitude adjustment. John is a manager with a software firm, and although he recalls being enthusiastic about his job during his first year in the position, he now questions why he keeps coming to work each day. John feels pressed and harried by his staff, and feels helpless to motivate them. Every complaint and annoying personnel issue seems to end up on his desk.
