Susan Boyle

I realise this posting is a little late but I have only just discovered Susan Boyle and the clip of her singing on YouTube.com. I am not a fan of much TV, so I missed her performance on Britain's Got Talent. See her here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9lp0IWv8QZY.

I have long been passionate about how unimportant appearance is, in terms of human value. I hate that we are all supposed to fit the same mould, that beauty is defined for us and that this makes so many people feel uncomfortable with themselves. Judging someone based on how they look is ridiculous, but it happens all the time. What wonderful evidence Susan provides that it is best to judge slowly and that we all have hidden value. What a beautiful person she is.

Nurturing relationships

I couldn't resist writing about how great it feels to be happily married for 20 years - see my newsletter at http://www.ambitioncoach.com/62652/89229.html. And of course, I also write about what I consider to be the important tips for achieving a long-term strong and successful relationship, (not necessarily a marriage). It all comes down to a single word: 'nurture'.

Plus a final plea for votes in Britain's Next Top Coach competition!
