A Motivational Quote by Margaret Thatcher

Margaret Thatcher’s quote is a great reminder when we attempt to achieve positive results after we speak to someone during a tough conversation.  We may need to change our message when the other person doesn’t respond as well as we hoped. Believe me, I’ve been there many times!

A Happy New Year Greeting from Joyce Weiss & Mark Twain

Happy 2019!

This is the time of year that many of us set goals and feel guilty when they are broken by mid-January. 🙂 Mark Twain used humor constantly when he told stories and wrote about life.  I hope that you enjoy his message below.

Bike riding is my passion during Michigan’s beautiful fall, spring, and summer.  My goal is to use the same bike as I ride outside and put it on a special device in my workout room which allows me to shift gears and take the ride of my life.  The funny thing is – I constantly look in my mirror to check that no one is trying to pass me.  Old habits, my dear friends!

I want to hear from you.
Please send me an email HERE or comment on the blog and let me know your goals.  Let’s do what we can to support each other to achieve them!

It’s time for me to say until next time, I’m going bike riding.

PS  I hope that you and your family have a wonderful 2019!  Looking forward to seeing you soon.

Einstein’s Quote About Taking a Risk with Things That Matter

It’s always interesting to me when I work with clients about speaking up when someone is sarcastic or rude to them. Their comments range from:

  • I’m too shy to speak up
  • I could get into trouble
  • Things could be worse if it backfires
  • HR ignored my concerns
  • My family member would get mad or even arrested (drug or alcohol abuse)
  • Harassment is the norm in our department

There is some truth with all of the comments.  It’s always a risk to speak up.  There is usually someone who can support you either at work or in your personal life.  Don’t give up looking for that person who could help you resolve an important issue that matters to you.

I strongly agree with Einstein’s quote below because the only way one can make positive changes is to confront these issues to the appropriate person, even if the perpetrator is a high profile and powerful person.

Fear is a big part of this entire equation. All we have to do is watch or read our favorite news outlets to see how some of the situations are hidden for years.  Shame and fear play a dual role.  Listening to their stories remind us how brave people have to be to come forward.   I challenge all of you to weigh the options and do what you feel is best.

A Motivational Quote About Courage and Confidence

I just saw this powerful quote recently.  It reminded me that we all need encouragement at times.

I find a great motivation is finding books on topics that I don’t usually read. It’s amazing that the protagonist or message give me solutions to challenges that I’m facing.  A friend of mine just loaned me a book on the first Navy SEAL.  I’m in awe of the bravery and courage that these brave warriors portray every day.

Think of books or movies that would be a good source for your own inspiration.

One of the reasons that I send these motivational images is that clients have asked me to do so since they like the positive messages appearing in their email.  Hey, we need to do the best we can to stay positive in this challenging world of ours!

Here are some questions to ask yourself:

  • Where do you go to get encouragement?
  • How do you face your fears?
  • Is there an area in your life where you need that nudge to overcome a fear or complete a goal?

I want to hear from you

Add a comment to my blog what you do when you need encouragement.  What books have helped you?

What is Your Secret to Success?

 

I recently had conversations with several college-bound students about what the secrets of success.  It was fascinating to listen to their mature thoughts.  Some told me that doing well in college helps.  Others talked about the importance of networking and meeting the right people.  They asked me to add to the conversation.  I told them that preparation is my secret sauce.  I make my workshops or presentations look easy.  The truth is that it looks easy because I prepared and prepared – practiced and practiced!

What is your secret to your success?
