Keep Your Dreams Alive

Tuesday, September 16th, 2008

Last night I was watching a wonderful movie, which each time I watch it I am moved and touched by it. The movie is called “The Bucket List” and it’s all about dreams and how we give up on our life when we give up on our dreams.
A month ago we celebrated 45 years for […]

The Creative Factor of Solving Problems

Monday, September 15th, 2008

Creativity is a quality that exists within all of us. It is not a learned skill or an unusual talent…
It is an attitude that outwardly “creative” people bring to every problem.
For most of us, though, our creative “edge” is regularly dulled by daily routines, rules and regulations.
It becomes easy to rely on the tried-and-true, and […]

Pain as a Tool for Change

Friday, September 12th, 2008

Yesterday thousands of people had to face the pain and the loss of their beloved ones in the tragedy of September 11. Millions had to face the reminder of fear of losing ones. September 11 will always stand in our memory as a day of fear and pain on one side and on the other […]

Service - Quality Beyond Time

Wednesday, September 10th, 2008

Since yesterday people keep on asking me if I’m a frustrated waitress that I put so much emphasis on service. Well I was a waitress, but that is not the reason why I find service such an important value. The reason is that I found out that service is the quality that goes beyond time. […]

Powerful Leadership or Servant Leadership

Tuesday, September 9th, 2008

I was listening to Barak Obama being interviewed by the press and there was one sentence that he said that caught my ear and made me realize one of the main differences between old type of leadership and Feminine Leadership.
He was making a remark that the word “service” in the Republican lexicon translates only to […]

Change is More Than Just a Word

Sunday, September 7th, 2008

Change is more than just a word that can be used as an election slogan. Watching the election race in the US has suddenly turned into a competition who can say the word more times than the other.
However, let’s remember that change is not in your hands. Change is not something that you do, it […]

We Don’t Need Another Hero

Saturday, September 6th, 2008

The other day I was listening to the radio and one line caught my attention: “We don’t need another hero.”
Pictures from old movies flashed in front of me.
The mythological hero - tall and handsome, powerful and wise, always resourceful and with a sense of humor. Those were the heroes we were searching to lead us […]

Here it is again, this time of the year where our hopes are up again and we decide this year is going to be the year that I keep my promises to myself. It’s the time of year where we set our goals and make all the promises that this time it will work.

The Black Swan in Life

Wednesday, December 26th, 2007

It’s Christmas time and the New-Year is just around the corner, which is a good time to have a look at what we have done this year. Where have we grown, what has changed in what we do? What new ideas did we have and what concepts have we let go of?
It is said that […]

How Do You Live Your Life?

Wednesday, August 29th, 2007

I got a lot of responds to the piece about Mother Teresa, and mainly it was a question about why do I keep writing about women that died.
Well, the truth is that I write about Role Models and influential women. Those women that (in my opinion) have created influence in our world and made a […]
