Hope isn't always the most beneficial approach in life. Hope can often set us up for disappointment because it is based on wishes rather than facts. It is looking at the future rather than focusing on the present. It can be a passive approach rather than an active approach.
Cognitive behavioral tactics are simply tools to train your brain so it becomes a conduit to your optimal functioning. Identifying these tactics is the first step. Practicing them so they become habits is the next step. #drrobinbuckley#cognitivebehavioral
Your brain can either be a help or a hinderance. How you train your brain determines which it will be, and cognitive behavioral tactics (CBT) can ensure your brain functions FOR YOU rather than against you.

Our brain creates the seeds for all these. What do you want your brain to plant? Seeds which foster the life you want or which undermine how you want to function? It's your choice when you use cognitive behavioral tactics (CBT) so your brain becomes a tool for the life you want.
You can decide how long you want to experience any emotion because we can control what we feel, and for how long, by training our brains. It takes practice but employing cognitive behavioral tactics (CBT) allows you to make your brain work for you rather than against you.

Activists talk to us, teach us, defy us, & contradict us. Activism can be intimidating because of its โin your faceโ nature. But while activists are looking for concrete societal or political change, they challenge us to think differently, with an accelerated sense of urgency.
Advocates are individuals who support or promote the interests of a cause or a group. Advocates are looking not only to act as allies, but also to move their allyship into the position of making social and political change.
As an ally for an individual or for a cause, you get to SUPPORT. Essentially, an ally is a helper. An ally offers assistance and support to someone else through a situation, or through an ongoing struggle. Being an ally is being a leader. How can you be an ally?
Let's make this simple. A person's sexuality, sex, or gender has no effect on you. There is one basic premise to keep in mind when topics make you uncomfortable - WE ARE ALL HUMAN. It starts there. Ask the questions. Learn. Listen. We all deserve the same rights and kindness.
I love the challenge of trying to find the best way to connect with an audience. If I can identify an approach that will get them to walk out of my talk with information and strategies that might just make a significant difference in their lives, then Iโve achieved my goal.
SIGNATURE TALK: How can leaders create a culture which demonstrates that team members are safe to take risks, be vulnerable, push boundaries and openly share ideas? By doing so, psychological safety can be a conduit to change and growth. #drrobinbuckley#professionalspeaker
SIGNATURE TALK/WORKSHOP: Society talks about finding a work-life balance, but this idea of "balance" is misleading. Adopting the perspective of harmony, a functional integration of all areas of life, provides you with a more effective framework to achieve health and happiness.
