Each Monday I share the most RT’d quote(s) from the blogs twitter account over the previous week.
Last week the most RT’d quote was:
“For every minute you are angry you lose sixty seconds of happiness.”
(Ralph Waldo Emerson)
Tweeted on 18th May
The second most RT’d tweet was:
“We cannot teach people anything, we can only help them discover it within themselves.”
(Galileo Galilei)
Tweeted on 18th May

Many thanks to everyone who shared the quotes above and the other quotes from last week. I know that there are various aspects that can influence if a quote attracts your attention – if you saw the tweet, personal style, if it speaks to something happening in your life at that moment etc.

(For those of you as geeky as I am and wondering what tool I’m using to measure individual RT’s this week I’ve been playing with www.twitonomy.com)

Each Monday on this blogs Facebook page I issue the following question and invitation:
“Have you written/seen a blog post in the past week that you’d think is of interest to coaches and that you’d like to share?”
At the end of each week I will be posting a recap of a selection of the links shared that Monday on our Facebook page.
As normal this week coaches from different parts of the world, with different areas of expertise and specialisms, took the time to share.
These are a few posts that also attracted my attention..
Want your post included next week?
If you have a post that you think will be of interest to coaches do take part in tomorrow’s Monday invite and leave the details on our Facebook page.
Whilst it’s lovely for posts to be sent to me via twitter, the nature of a tweet means that it can easily be overlooked when this post is being compiled at a later time. Please leave links in one place, ie our Facebook page so they can be easily shared.

“It turns out that freedom – the ability to make up your mind and change your mind – is the friend of natural happiness, because it allows you to choose among all those delicious futures and find the one that you would most enjoy.”
