In the success issue there’s an article I was kind of reluctant to write about because I don’t know how much I can get from it. It’s about work consultant Ronna Lichtenberg and her seminars called “Investing in Me, Inc.“ In the article, she takes a group of women through her seminar. Their experiences and [...]

Instead of doing one O Interview this month, Oprah talks to four different women (”phenomenal women”) about self-esteem: Toni Morrison, Gloria Steinem, Christiane Amanpour, and Marion Jones. It’s interesting to have the four different takes–these women aren’t psychological experts, but they are successful, and being successful does take a bit of self-esteem. [...]

Most of the Dream Big articles are lumped together, to make it easier for you to look at them. There’s a one-pager on networking and gives some networking organizations to look into. Another article is short profiles of women who followed their dreams–a “how’d they do that” kind of thing. I did a quick internet [...]

Dec. 2000’s calendar is all about giving well. Along with the usual inspirational quotes about giving, here are some tasks to think about this month:
When you’re giving, what are the intentions behind your actions? Are you giving because you want to, or because you feel obiligated? OK, here’s my one beef [...]

Issue 4 has a long Oprah-penned article about the Personal Growth Summits she held in the summer of 2000. Did you go? I didn’t, but this article summing them up a bit might help me.
Oprah says she believes, “the universe dreams a bigger dream for you than you can dream for yourself.” It’s up to [...]

This month’s calendar has tasks to help you trust yourself a little bit more. In looking at the action items to think about, I don’t think I need to worry about them so much. Part of that has to do with my age–I’m in my mid-30s (though I believe that’s part of the [...]

Sigh. Oprah’s kick-off to this month’s issue isn’t good news for an American who wants some instant gratification. Change, she says, isn’t like getting a makeover. To make a real change, you really need to decide who you want to be. She differentiates who you are from what you do or how you look and [...]

I like Oprah because on some levels I can relate to her–or I feel that she can relate to me. I like the fact that I know she’s human, and she’s willing to admit her flaws in front of millions. She constantly says that she’s a work in progress, and I’m like that too. I [...]

I forgot to take a look at this month’s calendar before I dove into Dr. Phil and Suze Orman. I suppose old habits die hard–whenever the magazine arrived, I’d read their columns first, then put the magazine away to read later (I didn’t realize it would be almost eight years later). So let [...]
