Be Careful of How You Advise Others!
May 22, 2012
Did you ever think about HOW you advise others in life? I have found that is a question rarely asked, but it is essential for all leaders!
As a business/life coach and founder of Live With Purpose Coaching, I recognize now more than ever in my life that the source behind HOW I advise my coaching clients, readers or my books or guests who listen to me speak around Running Down Your Dreams is of paramount importance.
It is easy to give advice. Even more so for the extroverted, A-type personalities of the world. Many people can spout off at the mouth with ideas before they really think about the how to best advice a person. It is easy to do, and I know I have done it before, though it will never be best or wise. It is something I always try to avoid.
A Story I’m Dying to Tell

Did you ever hear a story that you were dying to tell? Two weeks ago on a run, I was reminded of one I was dying to tell.
Sharing stories with the world around us can be one of the most powerful communication tools. As I grow in my early public speaking career, I am reminded of how much power clearly and passionately sharing stories can have on the hearts, minds and souls of my audience. It can change their lives.
