In today’s world, it is easy to get lost in the hustle and bustle of life. It can be challenging to find time for ourselves because we are always busy with our jobs, families, and friends.
Also, due to unforeseen circumstances, we often have ups and downs that can impede our happiness and personal fulfillment. When this happens, we don’t feel good, we don’t feel motivated, and this affects our performance and relationship with others.
It’s not easy to find happiness. However, it is possible.
I created a character to remind all of us how to find happiness and personal fulfillment. His name is KALF – which stands for Know yourself, Accept yourself, Love yourself, Forgive yourself.
To learn more about KALF, watch the video that comes along with this article.
By being aware of who you are and your circumstances, accepting, forgiving, and loving yourself, you’ll feel good about yourself. You’ll feel happiness and fulfillment that no one can give you except yourself.
True happiness lies within yourself and not outside in your environment and circumstances.
And when you feel happy from within, it will reflect on your lifestyle, performance, and relationships with other people as well.
Hope this helps!

We all possess these three intelligences but the key difference between different types of people is which brain is the more dominant.
Which brain or center of intelligence is more dominant in you? Is it the gut or physical brain/intelligence, the heart or emotional brain/intelligence, or the mind or intellectual brain/intelligence?
The knowledge of the three brains or centers of intelligence is the first step in understanding the “types of people” approach to self-knowledge. The next step is learning about the six classic types of people.
Each classic type of person is born with certain positive qualities or strengths and also some negative tendencies or weaknesses that become apparent when one overuses their strengths. These negative tendencies become activated when the main motivation of the type of person becomes threatened and the person goes into fear mode.
An example is a body type who is a doer and whose main motivation is accomplishment. When the main fear of ineffectiveness manifests, this type has a tendency to overuse their take charge quality and can become aggressive or even violent.
The main approach to personal development using the types of people approach is to cultivate the use of all three intelligences. Learning about all six classic types and the qualities and motivations associated with each, enables us to strike a better balance in behavior and understand others and be more tolerant.
The classic type approach to personal development also greatly impacts our leadership style and teamwork. Think again of the body/doer type whose main motivation is accomplishment and fear is ineffectiveness. This person could have a tendency to have an autocratic leadership style and perhaps be seen as a pushy type team member.
The best way to learn about the types of people approach to self-knowledge is to participate in a learning exercise with others. That is why I am offering a free introductory workshop so you can experience this approach for yourself.
I learned this many years ago from my mentor, coach and business partner Fritz Glaus who wrote a book on this titled CrazyZoo, Know-Thyself Made Easy. . This was a major AHA moment for me and had a huge impact on my understanding of myself and others.
Discover what type of person are you and how your human type impacts your behavior, your relationships, and your leadership style.

We all have three brains, not just one. This has been known in neuroscience for some time, but most people are not aware.
They are the Gut Brain, Heart Brain, and the Mind Brain. We all possess all three, but the difference is which one is most 0dominant in each of us.
Gut-centred people are physical types who see the world and relationships through their instincts first. Heart-centred people are emotional types and perceive the world and their relationships through their emotions. Mind-centered people are intellectual types and see the world and relationships through their intellect and logical brain.
We call these three brains the centers of intelligence and each center has two types of people associated with them. This 3fears.
The best way to learn your type is through an exercise or workshop, rather than just reading about it or following a video explanation.
That is why I am launching free introductory workshops to teach this approach and how it impacts your life and work.
Knowing and understanding yourself better is beneficial in making the best choices for partners and work and experiencing great success in life.
If this interests you, sign up for this workshop and receive news of the next upcoming date.
Looking forward to having you join me in learning about your type.
How do you keep yourself and your employees accountable while continuously improving performance?
In this video, I talk about the win-win agreement- a communication process that makes managing employees and having people accountable much easier.
Ideally, it begins with the manager explaining the company or department goals to the employees. Then, the employees can formulate their performance commitments in writing for discussion and agreement with the manager.
Next, the employee defines the support they require from the manager to meet their performance commitments. This is discussed and put in writing using the win-win agreement template that you can download for free.
Watch the video for a complete explanation and leave a comment if you have questions.
