Personal Development
Reach your highest potential...
Do you agree that personal development is the most important investment or gift you can give yourself in 2016? If so, take a moment to r
ead this article. If not, read it anyway.
The message may strengthen your ability to continue your journey as a powerfully positive transformation agent.
By Gitanjali Koppikar
At some point today, you're likely to hear someone utter a cry of defeat: IMPOSSIBLE.
You may hear it ricochet through the corridors of a company. You may hear it from a colleague, a family member, or friend.
And be careful. Let your guard down and you may hear it from the most damning place of all-yourself.
"Impossible" is the early warning sign of giving up.
Should you hear this word or any of its offspring-unfeasible, impractical, incompatible, unsolvable, insurmountable-stop everything. And do what ever it takes to eradicate their prefixes.*
Every day we are presented with opportunities to
live as if it's business as usual or to create something beyond who we've been and what we know.
Taking new ground-whether it's in expressing ourselves individually and fully, questioning firmly held assumptions,
making the difference we're out to make-requires disrupting our old conversations...

Social & Environmental Health Development
Make a Difference...
Did you know that social and environmental health are directly linked to our relationship with nature?
To be aware is to be alive!
Thank you
for sharing your wealth of knowledge to help uncover the personal, social and environmental health benefits of Mother Nature.
Just a few highlights from the article that our audience may find intriguing:
- First, nature is the root of human existence. Humans evolved from natural environments.
- Second, both the public and experts agree that nature sustains us. "Nature is the source of human sustenance."
- Third, cities are inherently stressful; they work against human well-being.
- Fourth, feeling safe in nature boosts well-being. A quiet natural spot is seen by both members of the public and experts as a "respite from the stressors of modern urban life."
As an expression of appreciation, we are recirculating Teresa's message in our SBND Community Newsletter.
