Chris Wilkinson column: A gift you can give yourself

Dec 28, 2024 | chemainusvalleycourier.ca | Chris Wilkinson

It’s the time of year when a little time for reflection is afforded. When schedules calm down for a few days (after the 25th!). And a little solitude and introspection sets up a successful year to come. No matter who you are, taking 10 minutes to reflect on your year and what you want for the year ahead is time well spent! Did you know that the making of resolutions at the start of a new year dates back to ancient Babylonians around 4,000 years ago?
Chris Wilkinson column: What's your definition of success, for you?

Nov 23, 2024 | chemainusvalleycourier.ca | Chris Wilkinson

What’s your definition of success, for you? Sure, we’ve all seen and heard how “society’s” (or really, social media’s) definition of success can be bastardized. Which totally underscores the need for having your own, customized, individual definition! Have you ever sat down and wrote out what it takes for you to feel successful? Feeling like your life is and has been a success is tightly tied to meaning. Kids. Relationships. Career. Fun. Challenges overcome. Purpose. Creativity. Etc.

Chris Wilkinson column: Happy New Year! More or less. Let me explain

Jan 27, 2024 | cowichanvalleycitizen.com | Chris Wilkinson

By Chris Wilkinson I’ve said it before…and I’ll say it again: New Year’s Resolutions are dead. The Friday before last was already “Quitter’s Day” — the second Friday in January labeled as the date most people have already thrown in the towel on their resolutions. And three days after Quitter’s Day it was “Blue Monday”, which is labeled as the most depressing day of the year. Mind you, that was started by a savvy travel company’s marketing department years back.

But many of you confuse it with giving others their way — their needs — first. That’s not accurate. In simple terms, empathy and compassion are about having kindness for self and others, and being able to connect with what the other person is going through. Understanding. But not necessarily agreeing.
Use Of Regulation 13 In Dispensing With Probationary Constables

Nov 14, 2023 | mondaq.com | Chris Wilkinson

A Regulation 13 hearing ends in the dismissal of a probationary constable. The High Court dismissed Mr Barnes' judicial review application, challenging the Chief Constable's decision to dismiss Mr Barnes pursuant to Regulation 13. The sole basis for the decision to discharge Mr Barnes was an incident of professional misconduct which had previously been the subject of misconduct proceedings in which there had, in effect, been a decision not to dismiss him.
Chris Wilkinson column: How we show up in life

Oct 22, 2023 | cowichanvalleycitizen.com | Chris Wilkinson

By Chris Wilkinson One of the most common fascinating stories our brain tells us (falsely, by the way!) is that once you complete a certain thing (do “X”), then you will get/receive that thing (“Y”), that allows you to feel “Z” ( accomplished, successful, wealthy, creative, confident, enough, etc.). It makes total sense! Once I do, then I’ll have, then I’ll be that person I always wanted to be.
