Clarity and addiction

Posted on March 25, 2015 by Jamie Smart

"You can never get enough of second best, because it's so unsatisfying."
Mandy Evans

If you’ve been concerned about addiction or compulsive habits and are exploring the possibility of making some changes, you might be interested in how this phenomenon looks when viewed through the lens of the principles behind clarity…

1. You have very good reason to be hopeful. Many people who once used behaviours or substances in addictive / compulsive ways have found freedom from those life-damaging patterns by realising some simple yet non-obvious facts about how every human being’s mind works. *

“Most people are walking around, umbilical cord in hand, 
looking for a new place to plug it in.”
– Cavett Robert

JST 56 – Coaching Transformations Part 3: Impact: Your interpersonal transformation

Posted on January 3, 2015 by Jamie Smart

“Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure. It is our light, not our darkness that most frightens us. We ask ourselves, Who am I to be brilliant, gorgeous, talented, and fabulous? Actually, who are you not to be? You are a child of God. Your playing small does not serve the world. There is nothing enlightened about shrinking so that other people will not feel insecure around you. We are all meant to shine, as children do. We were born to make manifest the glory of God that is within us. It is not just in some of us; it is in everyone and as we let our own light shine, we unconsciously give others permission to do the same. As we are liberated from our own fear, our presence automatically liberates others.”
– Marianne Williamson

 

It’s my last day in the office before I head off for my winter vacation, so by the time you read this, I plan to be sitting under a palm tree in Cape Verde, with a cold drink and a gripping crime thriller. I trust that 2015 has started wonderfully for you! In this article, we’re going to be exploring the second of the 3 transformations you have to go through to become a professional coach: Your interpersonal transformation.

JST37 – The Secrets of Coaching with Clarity: Part 4 – The Coach, the Cop and the Con-man

Posted on August 3, 2014 by Jamie Smart

“Thought is constantly creating problems that way and then trying to solve them. But as it tries to solve them it makes it worse because it doesn’t notice that it's creating them, and the more it thinks, the more problems it creates.”

– David Bohm, Physicist

Earlier this year, I gave a one-day coaching masterclass in Oslo for six clients. The structure was simple: one by one, each of the clients came to the front of the room and had a 1:1 coaching session with me while the other clients watched and listened. Part of the fun and power of working in this way is that everyone gets to see how the creative power of Mind shows up for each of us when there’s nothing else getting in the way. And what gets in the way? A misunderstanding of the thought-feeling connection. In this article, I’m going to shine a light on the 100% nature of that connection using a metaphor that showed up during the Oslo masterclass: Please let me set the scene, and introduce the cop and the con-man…

JST32 – The Secrets of Coaching with Clarity: Part 2 – You’re always connected

Posted on June 21, 2014 by Jamie Smart

We’ve each had the experience (even if only occasionally) of feeling deeply connected with ourselves, with another person and even with life itself. And everyone’s had the experience (even if only occasionally) of feeling isolated, disconnected and alone. Both of these polarities are universal aspects of the human experience, and an understanding of them is incredibly powerful when it comes to coaching with clarity. In this article, we’re going to explore the power of connection to facilitate deep transformative experiences for you and the people you want to impact.
