Like most people, I learned the hard way how NOT to do it. But then, 30 years as a professional conflict resolver has taught me a thing or two about how to stop an argument, now I’m sharing it with you.

How your attitude predicts success, or failure – Tinycast #13

Have you heard of self-fulfilling prophecies? Countless examples show that success is all about attitude. If you believe you can do something, chances are you will. But if you think you can't, you're likely to prove yourself right. It's about the power of positive thinking and how our mindset shapes our reality.

Why Single Session Therapy is Now Needed More than Ever! – Tinycast #12

Single Session Therapy is a reality, but there are doubters. There would be, wouldn't there? Old ideas persist (or should that be 'resist'), not least among therapists themselves. Get over it, single-session therapy is needed, now more than ever.

Conflict always ends in talking, so why wait? – Tinycast #11

Conflict is a fascinating and absorbing topic and despite many people’s anxiety about it, not one to be afraid of. On the contrary, since it is inevitable that we’ll have to deal with conflict throughout our lives, it is naive and irresponsible to stay on the sidelines and remain ignorant of the basic rules of the game.
But, before you wade in, remember the one essential truism I cover in this Tinycast.

Tinycast # 9 – Writing about one problem often exposes others that are more important

Today's Tinycast was not my idea, but it is one I use all the time.
The title says it all, you can learn a lot by writing about your experience. Start with a short note, or a sentence or two, and build from there. Do it the old-fashioned way, in a notebook, because that helps the reflective process.
Try it and see, writing I mean...

Tinycast #8 – Kindness, Doing Good Does You Good Too

Acts of kindness benefit the giver and the receiver, they can also ripple out. It's not just about being nice. Studies show that "kindness is an antidote to isolation and creates a sense of belonging. It helps reduce stress, brings a fresh perspective and deepens friendships. Kindness to ourselves can prevent shame from corroding our sense of identity and help boost our self-esteem." (Mental Health Foundation).
