INDIVIDUAL EXCERPTS FROM THE 5 SENSES OF SELF:
A Coaching Framework for Personal and Team Development® Richard A. Burwell
A Coaching Framework for Personal and Team Development® Richard A. Burwell
The capacity we have as human beings is the capacity for personal growth and transformation which moves us beyond a parochial concern with ourselves into an altruistic focus on other people. It is the greatness of how we live, how we love and how we serve which ultimately defines us, and which determines the impact we have while we live, and the legacy we hope to leave...
But the position we live from, love from and serve from is of critical importance. When we live from the mindset of Cinderella we live in oppressive servitude because we have to, but when we live from the mindset of a prince or princess, we can live as benevolent kings and queens - making a positive difference because we choose to. The difference is in the definition. The difference is in our identity...
The root of our difficulty in living to our fullest capacity lies in having a poor sense of who we are and what we are capable of, and in a lack of power to make decisions which truly represent the heart of who we are and who we want to be.

The process of perfecting the place you are in, whether it’s the physical environment surrounding you (locationally) or the people you interact with (relationally), is as much about the process of change in you, as it is the process of change in your outer circumstances and the other people involved. Transformation is as much about the process as it is the end result. If the change in our outer circumstances were instantaneous, there may then seem to be no need for change in us. However, we know only too well, that we carry us with us, wherever we go...
Building a stronger sense of place at work, at home or in our local community, requires us to be in a resourceful state of mind and heart. When we are in a resourceful state, we are empowered to persevere through the process of change, transforming our present places into more positive environments...

Values influence us at the subconscious level, but when we fail to give our values a necessary voice in the shaping of what we do, and instead allow ourselves to be influenced by other peoples values or agendas, we run the risk of living out of alignment with our deepest core. This leads to stress (the conflict of values) and the inability to set goals or make plans which fulfil us at the deepest level... Click here For more excerpts from the book
