ABOUT
Scott Friedman is on a lifelong quest to live in peace with himself. This has led him to meditate every day for over 35 years. This helped him discover the methods to understanding how to achieve our deepest dreams and realize true joy.
There are two big problems most of us have with our thinking. First, we have a tendency to want to make bad, uncomfortable or false thoughts go away. Negative thoughts lose power when their existence is acknowledged and permission given for them to exist even though we choose not to act on them. Fighting against negative thoughts or trying to ignore their existence only gives them greater power in our life. Second, many of our thoughts are unconscious. We are controlled by unconscious thoughts. To have choice and freedom we must move thoughts from the unconscious to the conscious. Thought coaching helps us accept and reduce the influence of negative thoughts while giving us a greater ability to act on positive thoughts, thereby improving our life.
WELCOME
Thought coaching is the process of becoming increasingly aware and accepting of our thoughts. Our thoughts, and the life they create, automatically improve simply be being more aware and accepting of their existence.
MY BOOKS
People learn that a thought is a thought and may or may not be true. Too often we think every thought we have is accurate when it's not. Understanding a thought is only a thought makes room for more empowering and effective thoughts we can then choose to act on. My books reflect and allow you to do the same...
A FEW KIND WORDS
1. The value Scott brings to a conversion is uplifting. He always has a positive thought even when there does not seem to be one. He can take a story that does not seem positive and put a positive twist on it.
​
2. Scott can take almost any incident in his life or the life of others and turn it into a win-win situation.
​
3. Scott does not take himself too seriously. I used him as the subject for a "roast" I needed to do for one of my Toastmaster projects. I chose him because I knew he could see the humor and not take it personally. He can laugh at himself and his faults...yes he has a few!
- Wendee
When Scott presents his various topics, it causes me to STOP & realize that I should rearrange my thinking regarding my life. You talk about healing ourselves, so that we can help the world heal. I then wonder how I can heal myself, help heal my wife & family, and my immediate friends. I don’t normally dwell on the words “heal myself first”. That then causes me to wonder how can I heal myself?
Your key points, make me wonder if I need a journal, to write down all the positives that surround me, and perhaps the negatives, and try to address them. To learn how to manage stress (in a better way).
get much accomplished, and we feel guilty. We then ask “what happened”?
- Ken
Scott, you come across - to me - as a VISIONARY. Someone who looks beyond the obvious; the more trivial issues of our day to day. Your message(s), seem to come from deep thought as to how to make the world a better place.
Scott always makes himself available to answer questions, and explains things in ways that are understandable and sensible. Scott is client-focused and professional, yet warm and personable. I respect his integrity. The clarity and experience he brought to our refi process helped us know we were in good hands.
