Show Yourself Some Appreciation

It’s so easy to show appreciation for others, how about showing some for yourself? This concept is foreign to many, but the positive benefits of it can astound.

These days, it seems that the sky is the limit when it comes to the possibilities in our career choices, and life choices overall. Sadly, the converse can be true as well, and the amount of stress involved in keeping up with our constantly and rapidly changing environment can wear down the best of us. Our ability to acknowledge and praise ourselves can make the difference between a great life and one that is filled with anxiety and daily pressures.

A new book entitled ‘Appreciative Coaching: A Positive Process For Change’ helps the reader become aware of an appreciative approach to themselves and their lives. Designed for career coaches and life coaches, this book by Sarah Orem illustrates the importance of empowerment through framing positive questions and various other tools to strengthen an individual and give them hope for the future. Sarah Orem is an online faculty member at Capella University who co-authored this book with Jacqueline Binkert, PhD and Ann Clancy, PhD. Each of these authors possesses a doctoral degree and with their combined expertise in coaching, consulting and teaching, they have provided a groundbreaking tool to help managers, executives and individuals achieve higher levels of performance and satisfaction in every aspect of their lives.
