Business Accelerator and Executive Coach, Christine Comaford: How do I mentor clients to release EVERYTHING that blocks them? One way is to teach them to STOP their thoughts. Why? Because your thoughts are the voice of your ego, and your ego is primarily driven by fear. According to the research of Dr. Fred Luskin of Stanford University, a human being has approximately 60,000 thoughts per day—and 90% of these are repetitive! (You know what that says to me, as an Executive Coach? It says OPPORTUNITY.)
