What Is Your Circle Of Destiny And Why Is It Important?

Hello everyone,

Have you ever thought how your thoughts shape your destiny?

Or how your habits shape the quality of your life?

There is a sequence in which your thoughts become your habits and your habits become who you are and eventually they shape the direction of your destiny and define the quality of your life.

I call it the circle of life, or the circle of destiny.

And this week, I would love to talk to you about this sequential circle of your destiny so that you can design your most joyous and victorious destiny for your journey of life!

If you are ready, let's go!

Especially after covid, in my online education programs, in my coaching sessions, in-person NLP training courses, wherever I am, I hear people experiencing higher levels of anxiety more than ever. And I receive a lot of questions like:

- Shiny, how do I deal with my anxiety?

- Shiny, what would you do if you were me?

Well, I have got news for you! Anxiety is not going anywhere! It's not leaving you or me anytime soon. It's like our lifetime friend.

That's why I wanted to sit down and have a conversation with you about some practical ways to un-own your anxiety and give you some really simple yet awesome tips. Because, you don't need to OWN it.

Ta daa! What a new concept, right?

How to Bust Assumptions

Hello everyone,

I want to talk about assumptions today. What they are and why you need to bust them.

As a Licensed Trainer of Neuro-Linguistic Programming™ since 2011 and an ICF Accredited Coaching Program Educator since 2014, I studied and researched a lot about neuroscience, how the mind works, how we generate communication and behaviors, how our language dictates our reality, etc.

One thing I can tell you for sure is that, you cannot not make assumptions. Which means that your brain is wired to assign meaning to life, to make assumptions. A ton of them!

And all the time! All your beliefs, all your ideas and opinions at the core, are nothing but your assumptions.

They are only true in your mental world and they belong only to you. Not anybody else. That's why we call them assumptions.

And most often than not they are limiting you in life, creating trouble, causing relationship problems, preventing your joy.

And because of that, I have some very entertaining ideas to bust those non-helpful assumptions.

Ready? Let's go!

Happy busting, 🤗

4 Reasons Why You Need To Turn Your Sentences Into Questions

Hello everyone,

Today I'd love to shine those neurons of yours by talking about QUESTIONS, to be more specific, why you need to communicate with question marks instead of periods.

You know how you start a conversation and it is going well. All of a sudden something happens and before you even realize what happens, you are in an argument:

Perhaps, you are not intentionally creating this, obviously... But for some reason your selection of words, your tonality and your body language in your sentences created that undesired outcome.

I have 4 reasons why you need to turn those sentences of yours into questions to avoid these problems.

If you're ready, let's go!

5 Ideas To Get And Stay Motivated

Hello everyone,   

Today I'd love to talk about motivation!

Why do I want to talk about motivation? Because we need it. More than ever now.

You know, we live in the Covid-19 shaped world right now, we cannot escape it. This is the new world order. Things changed. Relationships changed. Working models and structures changed. Expectations changed.

So the question is, how are we going to adjust?

How are we going to get motivated and stay motivated when it's not that easy any more?

I believe motivation is your internal fire. You need to ignite it. Sometimes you need something internal to ignite it; and sometimes you need something external. And I have 5 ideas to cover both.

4 Signs You Are Not Self Actualized

Hello everyone,

Today, I want to talk to you about self-actualization and how it relates to be thankful in life and be grateful for ourselves and our loved ones...

Remember Abraham Maslow? One of the pioneers starting the human potential movement with his hierarchy of needs, back in 1940's?

Well, at the very top his theory of hierarchy of human needs, there is self actualization. Self actualization means you live on purpose. It means you have a calling. And it also means that your talents, your skills, your mindset and your self expression maximize your human potential.

And there are some signs that reveal if you are self-actualized or not. And today, I am going to share 4 signs that reveal you are not self actualized so that you become aware of where you are and commit to your journey of self actualization. And eventually be thankful to your life and say: I LOVE MY LIFE!

6 Tips To Improve Your Listening Skills

Hello everyone,

Hello everyone,

Imagine for one second that your ability to communicate is taken away from you...

How would you feel?

How would you deliver your messages to others?

How would you receive information from others?

And how would you store that information you receive? Which is what we call "listening".

According to neuroscience, the fear center of our brain, amygdala, makes us crave being listened to and heard by others as it aims to protect us from all kinds of threats, including the emotional ones, like the ignorance of others. So as I always say in my Neuro-Shine Technology™, we all want to be seen, heard, appreciated and we all want to be safe with each other.

And it's very important that we know how to do it.

But do we?

Unfortunately we don't know how to listen. There is no specific training or a relationship orientation manual teaching us how to listen, what to do, what not to do.

But, fortunately, you have me!😍 As an ICF accredited coaching education provider, today I'll be sharing 6 tips to improve your listening and the quality of your communication with others.

Ready? Let's go!
