Two powerful words
How we use language determines whether we live in a world full
of possibilities or a fearful and threatening world.

The two words "yet" and "enough" can have an
amazing effect on raising energy. Both words open up possibilities
in our minds when we get stuck or are afraid.
- If someone says something like: "We don't know how to do
it" , try adding the word "yet" to the end of the
phrase. The current reality is acknowledged - at the moment we
don't know; but it also leaves room for a positive outcome - that
we will know in the future.

- Catching a train with a minute to spare and thinking "I
nearly missed the train" is a position of fear. Thinking
"Great, I had time enough to catch the train" on the
other hand, offers us a benign world where there is enough of
everything for all of us - enough time, enough money, enough room
in the market for me and my competitors, enough stamina, enough
success.

Using "yet" and "enough", both in our own thoughts
and when talking to colleagues generates positive energy, releases
fear and tension and gets the creative juices flowing again.
