Do you know what you want? Lots of people do – good luck to them. They’re the ones with lovely, clear, niched marketing online, looking wonderfully successful! But what if you don’t know what you want?

I’ve been there and I believe I can help you.

For almost 20 years I climbed the greasy pole in one of those ‘hard-to-enter’ professions, news journalism. Then I got close to the ‘top’ – a very well-paid job managing a department of 100+ journalists, and launching various high-tech ways of getting news to the public – and discovered that it didn’t make me happy. The workaholic lifestyle of long hours and hard drinking, of crisis management, of early-morning calls and late-night emails, of elation when things went well and of despair when things went wrong, just wasn’t what I really wanted.

Eventually, I accepted redundancy as a way out.

I used my journalistic skills to find out what to do next. I discovered a new and fascinating world – the world of ‘thinking about thinking’, of ways to explore my own thoughts, and of ways to change what I was thinking. I explored ’success strategies’… all I had to do was to visualise what I really, really wanted and the world would help me to get it.

But I still didn’t know what I really wanted to do with my life, only what I didn’t want.

Then I discovered an unusual approach to the problem which made a concrete difference. Called Clean Language, it works the way human brains work, by using metaphor. It taps into your unconscious mind and helps you to discover what’s going on inside. You can use it to find out what’s most important to you, in a way that you can easily act upon.

And, most useful of all, it contains a ’switch’ to shift your attention from what you don’t want and onto that elusive, mysterious ideal – what you really, really want, your heart’s desire.

I’ve recently co-authored a book on the subject with one of the world’s leading experts, Wendy Sullivan.

The two of us train people in coaching, consultancy, management or the ‘helping’ professions to use Clean Language to work with other people. Find out more here.
