The famous writer, Milan Kundera said, "There are no small parts - only small actors."
They call the greatest actors masters of their craft, and yet there are masters in all aspects of life. Perhaps you’ve noticed them, perhaps not; but if you look around you will find people who so excel in what they do that they far exceed what’s expected, and indeed, sometimes what’s even thought to be possible.
Each of us has an important part to play in this world. We are each endowed with our own gifts, which, when shared, make this world a better one. We are each masters in the making. The key to unlocking your inner master is to pour all your passion into whatever it is you do without worrying about how others will react. Your job is not to please others, it is to share your gift.
This week, intend to share your mastery, your true gift, and be an inspiration to the world. Give yourself permission to play it big.

What’s your definition of success? In iPEC’s Life Potentials Training, we discuss reaching success "as you define it." So, let’s define it here. Since most of these blog posts have been me sharing my thoughts, I thought, for a change, and hopefully a sustainable change, that we get a dialogue going. So let’s begin this with your sharing your definitions of success. And if you have a challenge describing it, here’s a question that will help you: If you were the teacher of a class of young children and were to describe success to them, what would you say?

When most people hear the word "coach," they first think of a sports coach - maybe the coach of a local professional team, or perhaps their child’s soccer or baseball coach. The term "Life Coach," though, is an enigma to many people - though Life Coaching is becoming more widely known, people who have not experienced it really aren’t sure what it is.
"Rent-a-friend," "Cheerleader," and "Professional Nag" are just a few of the terms I’ve heard to describe what a life coach is. All of those terms actually have a degree of truth in them - yet none come remotely close to describing the power of what an alliance with a Life Coach can bring to someone’s life.
A life coach listens to you ("Rent-a-friend"), encourages you to do more than you would on your own ("Cheerleader") and holds you accountable for doing what you say you will do ("Professional Nag"). But it is the partnership that is formed between the coach and client that allows clients to make far reaching and sustainable changes, and to come into their own greatness. Life Coaching combines inspiration with empowerment, creativity with planning, and purpose with action.
If you want to make a change in your life or career, if you feel something is holding you back, if you need clarity around where you are headed, or want to speed up and achieve even greater results than you are seeing now, then hiring a life coach will lead you to where you want to be. Life coaching is an investment in yourself – one that will pay off in ways that you may not even be able to imagine right now.
