That sounds like sudden death, but if we were to say Housten we have a challenge for ya" that would be kool, shoot! LOL!

I'll have to keep that in mind for when I do creativity sessions myself in the future! Very interesting concept with asking your participants to choose a challenge instead of a problem.

(my first few million were HELL to get - but after that, it's been a breeze! :-) ) And as far as vulnerability, I couldn't agree more. (just ask the women who've come to my retreats!) hey adam! thanks for the help and the thoughts! chickiepam - i love reading about moms who are really working at non-judgment and conscious parenting. It's inspiring to me. So thanks for your words. barb and yogajenn - thanks for your additional remarks. they really help keep the conversation going. and it's a good topic. i've asked these same things to "motivational speaker" types - and i didn't get nearly as cool insights as some of the people writing here! thanks jen! thanks caren!

It reminds me of the old adage: if you're riding a bicycle down a path and see a large rock in your way, don't focus on the rock, or you'll surely hit it. Mike Christine,

I was going to ask you if you were really about 100 years old because of the amount of wisdom you have accumulated. But sheer hard work over 15 years would do it too, I guess! You're an inspiration to me not only because of the words that you write but because of the fact that you've accumulated this wisdom at a young age and without having your PhD in Psychology. It makes me know that when I think about my own goals, lack of formal education does not mean lack of merit! Hi Christine,
