Perceptions wield an incredible power – the power to be the architect and creators of our reality. They act swiftly, casting immediate judgements that are influenced by the intricate tapestry of our past experiences. These judgments created in our moments of perception, are not idle, they are catalysts. They kick- start a chain reaction of thoughts, and these thoughts stir up emotions, and these emotions ultimately decide or dictate our reactions, feelings and the actions we do or don’t take.
Here’s the truth…
Here’s the twist – every perception carries within it a duality. Within every perception both positive and negative coexist and dance in perpetual sync. They are two sides of the same coin, two halves of a whole and they constantly mirror life’s inherent balance. But most of us are unaware of this universal truth.
Imagine your thoughts are like a seesaw. On one side you have those whispers of self doubt and feelings of inadequacy. These can feel heavy and drag you down. On the other side you have positive and affirmative thoughts and feelings of adequacy. These can lift you up and propel you forward. But here’s the secret – the seesaw is balanced on a point of neutrality and the more we ignore that, the more we remain fixed and firm in our judgments. Which part whispers the loudest? The one where you put your focus, which is decided by your perceptions, which kick starts the emotional reactions and influences what stance you take.
Flexibility brings balance…
Neutrality doesn’t mean a lack of feelings or absence of emotion, rather it’s about achieving balance. It’s recognising that for every negative thought there’s a positive one that counterbalances it. It’s only in the place of equilibrium where you can transform negatives into positives. In leadership a balanced state allows you to stay flexible, capable of harnessing both sides of any event to your advantage. This balanced perspective is where you find your power, not holding firm to a rigid and fixed viewpoint. There is no flexibility with rigidity, and if there is no flexibility there is no adaptability.
So remember…
The truth isn’t always as it seems. True strength isn’t in rigidity, but in adaptability. You possess the power to transform negatives into positives, to recalibrate your perceptions and ultimately reshape your reality. This power is your hidden secret ally in life and business.

In order for things to change, the way you look at things have to change.
I work with you and alongside you as your personal life coach. For years I have been studying human behaviour as it’s vital to know what we do and also what we don’t do that stands in the way of our potential.
Being a life coach and facilitator affords me a very unique outlook in the way people live their lives. I’m extremely fortunate to have a set of skills that allows me to dissolve challenges and also the baggage or ‘bags of age’ that we carry around. These literally take up time and space in your life and when these are negative they can weigh us down and create reactions as well as signs and symptoms. Your mindset is that important.
I'm Mandy.
