Working Miracles: In A Miraculous Instant You Can Release the Hate at Work

Sunday, May 9th, 2010

NEW FREE AUDIO PODCAST: I was recently delivering some on-site communication training followed by a keynote speech, and I threw out what had originally been my keynote address at the last minute, and spoke instead about what the company really needed to overcome negativity at work, and improve their communication skills–they needed a miracle.

If you’re considering professional communication training or a communication keynote speaker (or more specifically training addressing dealing with difficult people and negativity at work), I recommend first asking yourself what the real problem is that you need to deal with. Is it really communication, or is it the negative attitudes and hate among employees that leads to a breakdown in teamwork and communication?

Check out our latest audio podcast about Working Miracles (our newest course) and releasing hate at work, and let me know your thoughts when you’re done listening. I’d love to hear what challenges you’re dealing with right now.

NEW FREE AUDIO PODCAST: Are you struggling with healing, transforming, or resurrecting a relationship? If you’re dealing with difficult people in the workplace or at home, it is not the difficult person (or Energy Vampire) that needs transformation; it is the lens, or the heart through which you are perceiving this relationship that needs transformation.

What You Invest in Shows and What You Focus on Grows

Tuesday, March 2nd, 2010

NEW AUDIO PODCAST: Are you investing in your professional communication training? It shows. Are you investing in your family? It shows. Are you investing in your career? It shows. So many people we know are living lives filled with misery and suffering. What they don’t realize is, that they are investing in misery and suffering. It is a universal law that what you invest in shows, and what you focus on grows. In today’s podcast, Dan helps you see what you’re investing in, and not investing in, so you can cultivate what you really want in your life. Click here to listen to today’s motivational podcast.

 

People Act Differently in the Light

Monday, February 22nd, 2010

NEW AUDIO PODCAST: If you’re dealing with difficult people or difficult situations, remember that people act differently in the light. It is our job to be the light that casts out darkness.

Today’s podcast helps you remember and work with this principle. CLICK HERE to listen to this podcast.

 

Wonder Twins Powers Activate! Form of…

Saturday, February 13th, 2010

NEW AUDIO PODCAST: You know how we tend to get it backwards most of the time? Well, one way we tend to get it backwards, especially in our personal relationships, is focusing on form rather than substance. We focus on the form love takes in our lives; the form abundance takes in our lives; the form God takes in our lives. The important thing is not the form, but the substance. Today, Dan’s inspirational thought for the day clarifies this idea. Click here to listen to this podcast in Dan’s Something to Think About series.

 

New Podcast: Miracles are Seen in the Light

Thursday, February 4th, 2010

NEW FREE AUDIO PODCAST:  Today I’d like to discuss a line from A Course in Miracles that I believe to be so profoundly meaningful that I frequently incorporate it into my communication training. The line is: ”Miracles are seen in the light.” The message is that we tend to focus on darkness and illusion, but the only way to overcome negativity or difficult situations is to cast light into the darkness or onto the situation. That light is already inside of us, but we have to tap into it and cast it–to see the miracles in our lives. This podcast will help you cast more light onto your personal and professional relationships. Click here to check out this podcast on our podcast page.

New Podcast: Swine ATTITUDE is the Real Problem–Not Swine flu

Wednesday, January 20th, 2010

I was just delivering on-site communication training (and a funny keynote–or so I was told) in Memphis, and while I was there, I noticed that the H1N1 (or swine flu) vaccine is available everywhere. This is not, however the biggest health crisis most of us have to worry about. This is not the biggest communication challenge most of us deal with in the workplace. What we should be worrying about is swine attitude. You know, that negative, sick attitude that makes professional communicators behave more like a bunch of pigs wallowing in the mud. Our attitude is, of course, the number one thing that effects our professional communication, our personal communication, and our lives in general. Today, Dan the communication trainer, author, speaker, and energy vampire slayer, gives you a tip to help strengthen your attitudinal immune system and defend against swine attitude.
