Here you'll find some of the exercises, articles and worksheets we use to help you create the work and life you love.

You can dip into the three activities of The Studio (Discover, Design, Do) as you desire. The Studio is always receiving new resources, so if you'd like to stay in the loop then just subscribe to our ezine, Brilliant!

Discover
  • What is it that you'd like to create?
  • What's your vision for your business or your life?
  • What's important to you?
  • What are the values, strengths and beliefs from which you make your daily decisions?
  • Who are you?
  • What are you here for?
  • What do you really want?
Articles
  • Ditch the New Year's Resolutions I know it's bold. I know I'll have happy helpers everywhere flinging their heads into their hands and saying, "No No NO!" but I think it's time we got rid of these pesky New Year's Resolutions and started doing things that actually help us change... Yes, it's time to start setting goals that work.
  • Your Success is in the BAG When you work in isolation, running a successful business isn’t just about getting clients but about building relationships in a supportive environment. That's where Business Action Groups come in.
  • How to Set up your Business Action Group Tired of being a Lone Ranger in your business? Take a look around, find the people who will inspire you and bring out your best and get cracking on creating you own Business Action Group.
  • Why I Changed to a Four Hour Day My four hour day started innocently enough. There was no revolutionary zeal nor aspirations to the loafer’s lifestyle. It was simply my desire to more fully enjoy my work.

  • The Big Sping Clean As with housework, so with life... it's that time of year to clean out your life's closets.
  • Goal Digging The original article that looked at what the research around Goal Setting Theory can tell us about how to create goals that work. Surprisingly, there is more to goals than just making sure they're SMART...
Worksheets
  • Reflective Practice (a simple activity for coaches and other professionals who wish to increase their professional effectiveness)
  • Wheel of Life Here's every lifecoach's saviour, or my version thereof. The Wheel of Life is a great starting point to find out what's going right, what needs changing, and answers that ubiquitous Australian question, "Where the bloody hell are you?" for your life.
  • Work Satisfaction Wheel This little baby's a work-in-progress... Based on the research around job satisfaction, I've put together this quick exercise to help clarify what exactly has to change for you to start enjoying your work (and getting the results you want!)

BRILLIANT! IDEAS FOR WORK AND LIFE







Your vision will become clear


 only

when you can look into your own heart.

Who looks outside, dreams.

Who looks inside, awakens.

- Carl Jung
















 

 

 

 




Design
is the
first signal
of
human intent.


- William McDonough













Knowing is not enough;

we must apply.

Willing is not enough;


we must do.

- Goethe
