Biography
Relationships with self reflect how we value and relate to the world around us, including
personal and business relationships.
We begin with my Relationships because in my experience it is
the quality of our relationships shape us, they
My Past Endeavours
I have a background in interior design, project coordination, sales marketing, and music. I then
studied Health (while studying I worked full time while attending classes full time and had time for personal and
social life) and subsequently worked in the most prestigious of health retreats.
While working at Camp Eden Health Retreat I heard about Robert Kiyosaki
Below is a video of him & Donald Trump, the story of how I arrived there shall be added at a
later date, in the meantime I'd like to share this with you.
In 1994, I was also invited to travel with renowned author and
success coach Anthony Robbins for a year,
My travel began as part of his R & R team in his Savu Savu Namale
resort in Fiji.
Below Tony speaks about the difference between success and no success
the difference is often just a millimeter out
While there, I met a gentleman who was willing to pay $1,000,000.00 ( and he did) for the
privilege of travelling and being coached by Tony Robbins.
This man was there because he wished to attract a specific woman and he was willing to dedicate a
whole year and 1 million US$ to work on himself. Why? Because he knew that to achieve anything one needs to work on
oneself first, not on the other person.
Yet remarkably I hear ordinary people giving excuses for choosing not to connect even for a few
hours, imagine how limiting that belief system, there is always a way of setting aside time to improve one
self
We are shaped by
our experiences and determination; qualifications and at times even experience not always everything, at
the end of the day it is our attitude that gets it for us.
Prior to becoming interior designer I had a remarkable challenge.
I chose to change direction in my life, take up a new profession, the feeling was so
powerful
In seeking through job opportunities, I spotted an ad for curtain sales. This appealed to me
since I've always loved presenting my home beautifully plus I had a strong sales background. That was not my
ultimate dream, but it had possibilities because ultimately I loves sales and was great at it. I would only
ever sell what I loved and knew well.
The position advertised was strictly
for experienced applicants.
I had absolutely
no experience, therefore I left it for a few days to enable them to interview the prospects, then I called; stating
clearly that I had no experience, but I so wanted to
learn.
They informed me the applicants they've had so far despite
being very experienced were not suitable primarily due to their attitude and presentation. Their intention
was to advertise again the following weekend, and if they did not have a suitable applicant, I would be
considered.
I waited a few days again, giving them time to meet/access the
applicants suitability, I know how valuable experience is to a business, the expense of training is
staggering especially if they do not last the distance.
A few days later I turned up at the store, the owner was busy
so I waited ( for hours), again they wished to try the third week advertising for experienced prospect, by
then I knew the job was mine, I really wanted that change so much.
Within a few days I received that call inviting me to join
them, I was ecstatic.
Why am I sharing this with you? People expect to get a job
based on a piece of paper, qualifications are not everything. The right attitude can be trained for the job.
The job application based on a CV does not necessarily reflect great attitudes.
About interior design,
I joined the business as a protege, my employer was my mentor, I had not studied interior
design, it was my attitude that was hired, within 3 months I
was running the Qld operations designing quoting coordinating millions of dollars
worth of projects every month.
Involved with every aspect including designing, costing, tracking the orders for each job, coordinating all the trades and working to
deadlines. ( To earn my place for this position I accepted nominal remuneration, started work often at 6
am, had a second job in the evenings, when not working evenings, I often worked back till 9pm, again I
had a fabulous social life and love life.)
It's all about
time management. I find most people offer so little of
themselves, never knowing how much a fully involved life is truly worth.)
Finally I was working with people and contractors that
provided exceptional service, collaborating with fabulous people who
respected each other.
When you love what you do, you are energized by it you are truly part of
your existence not just a slave to a well worn path.
Site inspections. delivery. placement. finishes, meeting deadlines and ensuring all payments were
received, some due to the vastness of the projects were progress payments. I worked with a dedicated team
that delivered excellence and on time, something few have had the privilege of
experiencing.
Most important of all was
completing every project on schedule. Delays are costly, momentum is lost and are not tolerated in any
successful business.
Jim
Rhon is a remarkable mentor to me & in particular Robert Kiyosaki with whom I trained followed by
assisting in his seminars facilitating wherever required. Robert has co-written a book with Donald
Trump.
Consistent desire, purpose and
mentoring
I have been a pianist, and a good one. But without a teacher to direct me, challenge me, and
support me I could not have passed all the exams. Without encouragement I would not have exercised my fingers by
practicing scales every day up to 2 hours, next to perfecting my musical presentation.
Because of my teacher’s encouragement I could play the piano for hours and still be wanting more.
I started when I was 9 years old, on a friend’s piano, and started teaching piano at the age of
12.
Please don't let your assumptions prevent
you from making a discovery that could be a turning point in your life.
My Life Coaching is unlike anything you have ever experienced. Like the Passion of the Dance -
this level of Life Coaching connects you with the universal pulse of life - the rhythm of ecstasy flowing through
your entire body, awakening and expanding your inner capacity for joy, healing, passion, love, and life. This is
the dance of the soul that only my Life Coaching can offer, in its unique and personalized
way.
We are all conditioned to
try and fit in, and often when we look for services
We fall into the same patterns and
expectations: remarkably we find comfort in conformity.
There is a tendency to seek validation; to feel we belong to something. It feels safe, true, but
it does not truly liberate us. In conformity there is no growth. In applying yet another system we do not truly
break free. Life Coaching is not a system. It is a deep awakening. Each time you touch and/or are touched you
enter into a new environment. You have evolved since the last time you were touched; your needs and dreams are more
profound; every cell is communicating; inside you are more and more connected to you. Therefore you touch and
respond differently - with yourself, the world around you, and your
partner.
Here, your Life Mentoring (Coaching) is completely customised to meet your personal (and
business) needs and challenges - when you develop more tools and skills in your life your preferences will change,
and my work with you will change accordingly
Feelings
The poet E.E. Cummings wrote:
“A lot of people think or believe or know they feel - but that’s thinking or believing or
knowing, not feeling. And poetry is feeling - not knowing or believing or thinking.”
Almost anybody can learn to think or believe or know, but not a single human being can be taught
to feel.
Why? Because when you think or believe or know, you carry a lot of other people with you, but the
moment you feel you are nobody but yourself.
In a world that is doing its best, night and day, to make you like everybody else, being nobody
but yourself means fighting the hardest battle any human can fight.
---- E.E. Cummings
-
When this
energy is realized it then requires direction: finding the right guidance and establishing the right
environment, including friendships and our work and surroundings, is critical for most
people.
-
When this
new power is discovered it needs to be harnessed.
.
-
So, no
matter where you are in life, you can discover quality and embrace and maintain higher standards in
every area of your life.
-
Don’t settle
for less than what you dreamed of. Imagine you could always receive what you ask for, and always give
what your friends and partner ask for; imagine there is a way.
-
Once we know what is available to us, we can ask
for more than we ever believed possible.
Note from TJ
If you have had enough of the void in your life, always seeking but settling for
comfortable rather than transforming; if you have had enough of quick fixes that do not give you the total feeling
of love youwant in your life; to take the
leapcall my office to learn
more.
Us working together (the team in training - more details
on this soon) supported by our unique skills below is my vision this applies to my work my team as well
as with my clients.
Remember what Napoleon Hill said:
"before success comes, we are sure to meet with much temporary
defeat, and, perhaps, some failure.
When defeat overtakes us, the easiest and most logical thing
to do is quit.
And that is exactly what the majority of men and women
do.
" So, there's no point in being in the majority!
Let's get ourselves into the minority, turn our lives around, do this for ourselves by becoming
healthy in every area of our lives, in particular our relationship with our bodies, our lover and the
people around us".
