How To Build Rapport With Yourself

Last month we looked at 'a definition of self concept' - how you see yourself. In this issue, the focus is on 'how you go about building rapport with yourself'.

You've perhaps never even given thought to the prospect of building rapport with yourself. Yet, you are most probably doing this in your every-day life with other people whose characteristics are as diverse as their personalities.

You know only too well that when you establish rapport, you have far greater influence with people you know or come into contact with. You're probably also aware that you can come up with an idea or a suggestion that is more likely to be respected or even accepted.

New Year is prominent - perhaps moreso than any other time of the year, when many women's attention turn to their career wellness, - whether it is a total career change, or to bring your career wellness dimension into greater balance or even giving consideration to how to achieve that particular career goal.

When considering how to achieve a career goal or career health, our choices are often limited through a variety of restrictions posed by our family/homelife responsibilities and commitments.

Or, is it perhaps also the case that we may have allowed ourselves to get caught up in the daily hustle and bustle, which understandably cause us to side-step the importance of our career health!

Is it now worth asking yourself why you have or have not made a particular career option? In all likelihoold there will have been a whole sequence of events that has led you to your current career health womens employment status. But if you're not fully conscious of them, how can you even begin to focus on making any meaningful change!

Whether you're married, single, divorced, in a relationship, or have children to support, you will have certain expectations for your career health and wellness within your working environment. These expectations will go beyond your financial security and job satisfaction. For instance, issues around change, work-related stress, your own flexibility and that of your employer.

Healthy Eating - Some Common Barriers to eating healthily and some practical solutions for overcoming them

For many women, New Year is a time to quickly rush into spring cleaning their digestive system; diet fast to lose weight; or to start some form or another of fad diet after the months of over- indulgence.

If this refers to you, what you need to do, is to spend some quality time working out what your healthy eating goals are for 2007. That is, what you want to achieve and how you're going to achieve it.

Having a healthy diet is sometimes easier said than done, since a variety of reasons and/or barriers might stand in the way, your good intentions difficult to sustain.

As well as weighing up the issue of time constraint between your job and home/family responsibilities, not to mention the fact that many of you are having to balance a million and one other things in your life.

But you know,

While it might seem tempting to opt for less healthy foods because they are quick and easy to prepare, taking time to plan in advance what, when and how you eat is far less time-consuming than you might imagine.

Believe me when I say that investing a little bit of quality time to a plan for eating healthily, is far less hard work than a 'grab whatever I can eat' attitude. When you have a clear plan of action - you know where you're heading. When you know where your heading - you reduce anxiety, stress, or even going into starvation mode where you're more than likely to feast on quick unhealthy solutions.

The Key Approach To Your Weight Loss Diet Goals - Will Power Alone is not enough!

With the return of longer day light hours after the Winter months, many womens thoughts turn quickly to how they can diet to lose weight fast.

If you followed the healthy eating suggestions during the Winter months, you should not have gained excessive weight. But then again, you - as well as I know that we're all suceptible to those yummy treats over the Christmas period.

By now, many of you will have given thought to some worth- while weight loss diet goals. You know - the type that appears on many a New Year's resolution! Yet, surveys have shown that within two days of setting New Year's resolution, many of us will have given in to temptation and will have fallen foul to at least a few of our good intentions.

What got in the way of all those good intentions? Willpower! When you're embarking on a weight loss goal or any other goal for that matter, the key thing to remember is that 'willpower alone is not enough'. You see, when it comes to your goals you're up against some pretty stiff opposition if you merely rely on your 'willpower' to get you through.

Just think for a moment how many times you've heard someone frame their weight loss diet goal in terms of - 'I must lose weight', I must eat less fatty foods', 'I must stop eating x y z'. When you phrase your goal in this way, you're effectively reinforcing the fact that you are intent on depriving yourself of some of the foods you particularly enjoy, in some way, shape or form.

Do you see the amount of pressure you put yourself under before you've even started? In the case of your goal to lose weight, you may well be reinforcing a very negative body image.

Here's an example of what I mean. If you tell yourself you 'must' give up eating junk food, that thought becomes your brain's focus. The more you remind yourself of this intention, the greater the risk of triggering a whopping graving for that greasy kebab.

Your aim now is to go into the planning stage of your healthy eating weight loss diet goal for the remainder of 2007. Remember, 'Every minute you spend planning is time well spent.
