Published on March 1, 2012 by Curt Gorlick

If you think someone has to win, you both lose.

Just because we get older doesn’t mean we get wiser. Actually, for boomers it often means that we just get stuck in our younger way of doing things. Here’s an example.

I remember talking with a new client. She was feeling quite…

Mostly it is because…

How To Escape The What-If Trap

Published on August 18, 2011 by Curt Gorlick

Escaping The What-Ifs Of LifeFor the longest time I struggled with the idea of making up my mind for what I truly wanted in life. What held me back was the thought that my decision was permanent. I don’t know where that idea came from, but it colored my every thought.

The What-Ifs took on a life of their own and filled my mind with doubt…

“What if I make the wrong decision?”

“What if I fail?”

“What if I make a fool of myself?”

All those “What If’s” kept me paralyzed from taking a leap of faith. As a result I stayed stuck in my comfort zone for years never deciding what I wanted.  This indecision not only kept me stuck, it caused me to not live true to my values. It caused me to give up my boundaries and most importantly, I lost who I was in the process.

I didn’t realize it at the time, but the moment I lost who I was at my core was the moment I started losing my “Happy.” Continue reading...

Life Is Like A River

Published on August 11, 2011 by Curt Gorlick

Life Is Like A RiverMost people who know me know that I have a very good life and I’m a happy person. Most of them also know that my life was not always like that.

You see, years ago my life was turbulent and most of the time I was depressed, angry and frustrated. It was all because I lost who I was and had over-compromised ME -- without even knowing it.

Then one day I said “Enough is enough!” and I made a commitment to do whatever it took to change myself and to live the rest of my life being happy, authentic and more true to my values. That meant I needed to change me and my life 180 degrees. What a scary, yet hopeful, goal. I had no idea how to start or where to go for help.

It took a few years -- and lots of dedication -- but I achieved the life I so desperately wanted. The life I have now is so much more than I ever could have imagined. Continue reading...

Go Deeper with “Awareness”

Published on August 4, 2011 by Curt Gorlick

Self AwarenessI started writing this week’s article about step two in my proven proprietary system that I created from my long journey from hell to happiness.  As I began to write I got an email requesting for me to go deeper with “Awareness” which is step one in my proven system.

If you missed that article, just click here to read “I Used To Be Happy... What Happened?” You’ll find the article about half way down the page. As you scroll down, check out my personal note, “Awareness - The First Step To The Life You Love,” to see what inspired me to write it.

Now, back to that short, open-ended question I received by email. This question made me think back to the time I started transforming my life. The writer asked, “What did I become Aware of?” Continue reading...
