February 5, 2010 by Amy Harrison 4 Comments

This bonus article is inspired by a good friend of mine who popped round for a cup of tea the other day before returning to Texas after a visit to Brighton to graduate from her degree course. We were talking about the (not so) New Year, our plans for 2010, and we got onto the […]

How your competitors boost business by turning customers away

October 30, 2009 by Amy Harrison 3 Comments

Turning customers away in a recession – insane no? Well, yes and no. Take two fictitious characters, Focused Fred and Pleasing Polly. They’ve both decided to start up their own businesses making tailored clothes. (I have no experience tailoring clothes so I may be rusty with some of the terminology – but should still work) […]

What's The Worst Thing That Could Happen (If You Try To Be Yourself?)

April 17, 2009 by Amy Harrison 8 Comments

I’ve just returned from having lunch with a friend who is training to be a life coach. We’ve known each other over 10 years and we always laugh whether we’re lunching, coffee-ing or out drinking. I love our chats of late which are usually about self improvement and making fools of ourselves.  Interestingly we were […]

Julie explained how she had never liked the term “breaking through the glass ceiling” as […]

"Don't Try, Can't Fail"…But Nor Will You Succeed

March 12, 2009 by Amy Harrison 2 Comments

I once knew someone whose motto was to never put himself forward for anything. He would half complete courses but never take the exam, his belief being that if they never took a test he could never “fail” at anything. He admitted his motto was “Don’t Try, Can’t Fail.” It’s an interesting philosophy and whilst […]

People Pleasing Paralysis

March 4, 2009 by Amy Harrison 3 Comments

At school, work and even when self-employed, you may be familiar with the “People Pleasing Paralysis”.  What has  been ingrained in you since you were young, could well be stunting the growth of your personality – and your success.
