Happy relearning!
Almost 3 weeks into the term, boy have I learned heaps in the last few months than ever in my life before? Re-learning things that I already knew or maybe things that I thought I knew -is proven to be harder than learning new things. Challenging my view. Challenging myself. Learn about how to be a leader and a motivator. This is why a culture shift in organisation is taking ages!

When my coach summing up our discussion about motivation and leadership- I found that there was nothing new about it. I have seen it demonstrated before, I have demonstrated it and , as the receiving end, I have felt it. Care, respect, passion, sense of belonging.

Sometimes we forget these fundamentals? Sometimes are we so caught up in rules and policies to drive performance and we forget the "marshmallow" of things.

On the other side of life though, Simone was back from the Landmark course in Auckland, that, apparently happened to change lives. I'm a skeptic so I won't say much about it :) However, Amy, Sim and I were having a lengthy discussion about how events in our past that affects our today's behaviour. It is amazing to see that the smallest thing, the things you thought you have forgive and forget - shape who you are today and how you interacted with society.

It is proven that forgiving is not easy! I am thinking about doing the course but I also need a money-back guarantee :/ because sometimes I found myself immune to this type of course. The one that has anything to do with "Getting in touch with your soft side".

Patience is a virtue ; Impatience isn't
That was the theme of July Forum just passed. "Patience is a virtue" The more I think of it the more I feel that I am lacking in that. I want things to happen and I want it now! :p Everyday.. starts yesterday! Urgency. I'm becoming like a true Wellingtonian who always in a rush. Where is the laidback-ness that I once had? ;p Need to cut some slack.

Some people told me to bring back the biff - this is the time :)
