Standing in Your Truth


One of the simplest yet most effective ways of standing in the truth of who and what you are is to not engage in the drama of others. As an Executive Life Coach and Relationship Adviser I see clients everyday who share stories of "He said, She said" or "That S.O.B." or "Did you know that "So and So" did this"....and Blah Blah Blah...it can go on forever.

I have two of the best tools in my bag of tricks when I work with my clients; number one is: I'm a good listener. Number two is: I put all my clients through our online Human Assessment Instrument we call The Ultimate Life Tool®.




Having the use of these two tools is crucial in making a difference in the lives of others. Being a good listener allows the client to express all that he/she needs to communicate before getting to a place where any suggestions or solutions can be explored. Having their results (or "grid") as we Licensed Y.O.U. Practitioners receive when a client is put through the instrument gives me a full and complete diagnostic as to what type of "Vehicle" I have sitting before me and what I can expect in terms of Authentic behavioral traits, energy pool, levels of toxicity, and refinement as well as their Electromagnetic Potential.

Obviously when a client comes in spewing toxic stories of non-responsibility- I already know something is up- Funny thing is, when you practice the art of listening- people start to hear how ridiculous they sound and come to a place where a solution can begin.


I have had Amazing results with all my clients once I share the results of their Ultimate Life Tool® survey with them, as they begin to feel validated in some of their behavior and learn how to make objective and accurate distinctions regarding their talents and how to maximize them for greater success in all areas of life. They also learn that some of the ways they have been acting, not only do not serve them- but are completely in-authentic to "WHAT" they are. Not "WHO" they pretend to be.

This is where the "Rubber meets the Road" so to speak in our business. So it's no wonder that
MFTs, LCSWs, ASWs, Psychologists, Life Coaches, Holistic Health Professionals, RNs, LVNs, Human Resource Professionals, Recruiters, Matchmakers,Sales Professionals, Relationship Specialists, Childhood Development Experts,Parents, and Families all use The Ultimate Life Tool® In business Home and Life to make a difference in their own life and the lives of countless others by teaching them to be Authentic and Stand in Their Own Truth!

Remember- "The Truth will set you Free"! For more information on The Ultimate Life Tool® and The Knowledge of Y.O.U.® visit our websites and learn why we have been accredited by The California State Board of Behavioral Sciences! (PCE 4245)

On to my next client!

Bending Time

I've always been an over achiever, and now is this day and age of "do this, go there, meet them, create that, and make this" it is become even more important for us "mere mortals" to channel our God given energies to Bend Time.

Wentzle Ruml is a good friend from my Professional Skateboarding days was visiting this weekend while we attended the ASR tradeshow in San Diego. During the course of his stay, he got a peek at my current lifestyle of how I balance my busy life focusing on Health; (Surfing, Skateboarding, Working out), Wealth; (Relationship Coaching, Being CEO of Y.O.U. Consulting Group, and of Course, my David Hackett Design business) Love; having and enjoying special, fun and intimate time with my wife, Dr. Zannah Hackett, Founder and Leading Authority on The Knowledge of Y.O.U. and The Ultimate Life Tool) and finally "Perfect Self Expression" - some call that your "Hobby"
.

I have many hobbies including Collecting surfboards, skateboards, guitars, Metaphysical Books, and more but I think the thing I do most in my spare time is collect, build, and play (or try and play) Guitar!

I started playing Guitar about two years ago at the age of 46 after watching my good friend Joe Wood tear into some Smoking Blues at a little club in Carlsbad. Everyone told me I was too old and too late to start- So I let them know that all things are possible- IF YOU BELIEVE!

In addition to playing and practicing for at least one hour everyday- I'm building three guitars- Two Telecasters; one new style, and one reproduction of an "aged" guitar from the 60's. The other Guitar is of my own design and looks like a Gibson ES175 in shape- but a little bit larger and I made it from a solid piece of Alder wood as a solid body electric!

When I brought Wentzle into my shop and showed him the guitars I was building he said "Dude, how do you do find time to do all this stuff?" My answer was simple; BALANCE. In the course of each day I devote time to the main areas of my Life- Heath, Wealth, Love and Perfect Self Expression! - The trick is to KEEP MOVING! and not spend too much time on any one of these areas, but just enough to keep moving forward and the next thing you know...you too will be BENDING TIME!
