I did some housekeeping on my blog today and found this beautiful passage about fear:

I learned that my fears lead me down a dark and twisted road, but if I keep walking through them the road straightens out and the light of awareness rises just like the sun. In fact, if I were to become a bird and fly high up above this path I’m on I could see that the dark, twisted parts of the road are only small bits that come right before long stretches of beautiful country!

Wow!  Can you imagine following your fear? It's not always the “best” route, but think about it:

So often the things you want the most tend to be the most frightening.

Isabel Allende writes of passionate lives, including her own. Born into a Chilean family with political ties, she went into exile in the United States in the 1970s. As a memoirist, she has written about her vision of her lost Chile, in My Invented Country, and movingly tells the story of her life to her own daughter, in Paula. The Isabel Allende Foundation works with nonprofits in the SF Bay Area and Chile to empower and protect women and girls - understanding that empowering women is the only true route to social and economic justice.

My favourite finance saying is "Turnover is vanity, profit is sanity but cash is reality". The phrase, which is known as the "Banker's Mantra", sums up everything you need to understand about financial control.

The recession is forcing businesses to consider cutting prices to win sales but the danger is starting a price war that destroys long term profitability.

Watched the snow fall last night, covering emerging green with a blanket of white. I felt for the emerging flora and animals, then I relaized that tomorrow would be a warm day and this chill would be fleeting. Spring cannot be contained or restrained effectively.

More than ever in this lifetime we are searching for creative solutions and ways to make our lives more meaningful.  I believe we have an incredible opportunity to be creative during these difficult times and to find deeper purpose in our lives.

There seems to be an innate passion in each of us to find a purpose and expression in our lives.  Part of that expression comes in a variety of forms; a book, a song, a poem, a painting, a great meal,  a business idea, planning a party, and numerous other ways.
This blog is to remind all of us that "we are creative" and we need to allow ourselves to dig deep inside to discover who we are and what our lives mean to us.   In that journey we find truth, beauty, and the peace of mind that comes from what I refer to as a healthy dose of inner struggle.   

My journey is one of personal development and enlightenment . I hope to invoke wisdom, motivation and inspiration, my first step in expressing my creativity is via my blog :

We are all life coaches I believe , nothing beats experience in my opinion. We can learn to hone our skills however and tune in , which many of us fail to do , get lost along the way or,  are unsure where to begin to change our lives for the better .

I believe we all have the knowledge, the problem for many of us is implementing those changes, those goals, and making our dreams become a reality.  This is the beginning of my journey to becoming a creative life coach.

Sometimes the act of creating something really special or beautiful can inspire us to care. Yet, we still have to make that first step of caring enough to get to the act of creating, so you can see what a cycle this can become if we don’t pay attention to, or have some kind of support in our lives. For example often when people age and no longer work they may give up and die fairly soon. Maybe it’s because they don’t feel like they matter anymore. It would be great to find the creative urge throughout your life that helps you to reconnect with what makes you matter in life.
But more than that you have to decide to matter. You have to decide that what you do every day matters. And once you get to that place you have achieved success. Real success.

So I hope you care. I do.

Well first things first I suppose: why RoSoGo?

 

Well, RoSoGo (kind of) stands for Ready? Steady?! Go!!! Three words that symbolise everything related to performance, success, competitiveness...

 

The Internet being so crowded with dozens of variations around coach, coaching, action, success, performance and so on, in the end RoSoGo seemed like a perfect name: short, easy to remember, easy to spell and, most importantly, still available for registration on the Internet!

 

Hence RoSoGo.com was brought to life!
