		<description><![CDATA[I believe revisions are a healthy part of life. When I speak about a life revision I am thinking about a process that involves exploring and questioning where you are today and what you imagine your future to be. It&#8217;s about asking yourself questions and discovering whether you are being true to yourself–does your life [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I recently read this quote in a book by M.J. Ryan called &#8220;This Year I Will&#8230;&#8221; and I was drawn to it–perhaps because I am venturing into the coaching world and coaching focuses on quicker movement, less of the past and a lot planning for the future.  It&#8217;s essentially less talk and more action.

		<description><![CDATA[Step 1. Relinquish the need to &#8220;win&#8221; an argument. Think about this–if someone &#8220;wins&#8221;, the other person in the relationship loses. In the end, both parties lose. Think of disagreements/arguments as communication errors and just sit and talk. Agree to disagree and find a fair compromise.
Step 2. Do NOT email when you are upset or [...]]]></description>

Ever catch yourself uttering those words? Perhaps you feel &#8220;less than&#8221; because you see others juggling their tasks with grace.

The first relationship that child ever sees is the one their parents have &#8212; for better and for worse, that&#8217;s it for a very, very long time (at least from a romantic liason point of view).
