About Me

I have led an apparently normal life punctuated by the usual human disappointments and upsets. My search for meaning in all this led me to qualify as a life / business coach and as a master practitioner and qualified trainer of NLP.

What I was seeking and have now found was a means of personal development. In my search for meaning I read many books and attended seminars and courses. The vast majority of these entailed information being given in what can only be described as a "three dimensional, mechanical" fashion.

This can only be regarded as "general" development; it was not sufficiently personal to me. Research has shown that on average only 2% of people actually follow through with their newly acquired knowledge and attain their goals. Although the information might be interesting, 98% of people leave unable to apply their new knowledge in any meaningful way.

Personal development needs to be personal, not in the usual format of specific instructions that the conscious and subconscious minds of most people find some objection to and so reject.

In my own presentations, NLP training events and information products, I enable people to apply their new knowledge to their own issues as they find appropriate and so enabling their personal development.

My Philosophy On Life: We all have our own versions of life. My view of life might be entirely different to yours or to everyone eles's. That doesn't make either of us right or wrong; it just shows a difference of opinion. In all aspects of life we all have choice. Whether we decide to make conscious choices is an individual choice in itself. In NLP there is a basic tenet that states that you can choose to live at cause or at effect; you can choose to take control of your life and make things happen or you can just accept everything that life "throws" at you. Life really is what you choose to make of it but you have to make your own decisions based on your own needs. This can present problems regarding what you need / want to change, what you want instead, possible repurcussions and how to go about making yopiur changes. This can be overwhelming and certainly not easy to make that essential start. The choice again is yours.

What is done is done.
Tomorrow is another day.
It's never too late to change.
You always have a choice.
