The ten minute relationship expert in action

Ian Haugh, 27-28 November, Hungerford

Our relationships – whether personal or in business – have the potential to be our greatest source of happiness. They also seem to have the potential to be our greatest challenge. Learning how to use the challenges in our relationships as stepping stones to both improving those relationships and becoming happier more peaceful people is a gift for life. Our relationships teach us about ourselves, if we allow them to, what we have to learn and what we have to change to achieve increasing levels of happiness and success in our own lives. Like us, Ian is well versed in the Psychology of Vision models we use in our work. in him, you’ll find a kindred spirit.


Quotations of the week

If you cannot do great things, do small things in a great way

It is literally true that you can succeed best and quickest by helping others to succeed

If you must speak ill of another, do not speak it, write it in the sand near the water’s edge

It takes half your life before you discover life is a do-it-yourself project

Victory is always possible for the person who refuses to stop fighting

Napoleon Hill, author of the quaint, but worth reading, Think and grow rich, d 8 November 1980


Article of the week
