According to those who have worked with Doug
Leland, you gain the following:
A more balanced and centered life Harmony is created between personal and professional pursuits, with each becoming more
productive and enjoyable. You reduce the friction in your life, gain energy, and begin seeing
opportunities previously hidden. You begin to open up space in your life and consciously decide
how much of this newfound space you want to fill and with what. You learn how to take care of
yourself in order to be your best for others. Friends, family, colleagues and acquaintances
notice and are attracted to how you have changed without you ever saying a word. Dreams
are rekindled—you begin to live life rather than being pushed along by it.
Self-discovery
Your increased centeredness leads to greater awareness, presence and openness to possibility. You
rediscover your strengths, skills, basic needs, cherished values, and unique identity—you rediscover
and reclaim your authenticity and consciously integrate it into your personal and professional
pursuits. You identify the standards by which you choose to live your life, and then raise them. You
seek and embrace learning from every experience and apply it to your personal growth.
Results that are tangible and meaningful
You decide what is important, articulate your goals and declare your intentions—and then you
attain them. Goals and objectives are developed, refined and clarified based on the understanding
achieved through self-discovery. You learn when to say “no” and when to say “yes” and that everything
in life is a choice. The roadblocks between you and your objectives are identified, and you gain the
skills, tools, knowledge, and courage to overcome them.
Inner strength gained by increasing personal responsibility
Paradoxically, by accepting that you cannot control life, you regain control. Life is filled
with choices, and you begin to experience the possibilities each represents and gain strength through
the ownership you take in each of your decisions. Hopes and dreams resurface and a sense of purpose
begins to emerge. You become less concerned with the judgments of others and more true to yourself. You
do not seek to place blame for events and experiences in the past and let go of worry in the future. By
taking responsibility you take control—friction is decreased and results increase.
Financial independence
For those who have identified and focused on increased income as a goal, it has been attained. Others
have sought the higher standard of financial independence which involves knowing “how much is enough”
once you have created a life that is consistent with your desires, dreams, values, and authenticity. From
this platform, and the harmonizing of personal and professional pursuits, income, expenses and lifestyle
are revisited and realigned to remove the burden and worry of present and future financial requirements.
Career guidance and exploration
Jobs and work environments are restructured, relationships with colleagues enhanced, values aligned,
new opportunities considered, and at times jobs are changed. The understanding gained through self-discovery
and knowing the work environment required by you to remain balanced and centered, combine to clarify your
fit with current career choices and your opportunities for change.
Strengthened relationships
Most goals, objectives and activities require interaction with other people— people who may represent
an obstacle or resource for attaining your objectives. You learn to be honest, direct and constructive. Listening
skills and inquiry skills are heightened. You gain the ability to keep the unwanted behaviors of others
out of your life while still allowing people into your life. Enhanced communication skills improve the
quality of your relationships while serving to expedite progress towards your objectives.
A supportive confidant, mentor, sounding board, and partner
Doug listens, challenges, encourages, clarifies and supports. He gets to the heart of the issue
quickly, keeps you on track, helps to identify your learning opportunities, establish incremental
action steps, remove obstacles, and move forward. He is there for the ups and downs, the triumphs and
tribulations, and the soul searching and celebration.
