Mike’s Intentions, Goals & Desires

By Dr. Mike Gosling

My search for life’s meaning has taken many paths. I was born and raised in the Fiji Islands and immigrated to Australia at age 25. I entered university as a part-time student at age 27 and spent the next 30 years completing five degrees in accounting, business administration, theology and emotional intelligence. I was married in 1970, divorced in 1975, and remarried to Karen Alm on May 28, 1997. I am blessed with five children, three girls and two boys, and seven grandchildren. I have had a successful career as an accountant, senior corporate executive, academic, business owner, entrepreneur and emotional wealth coach. My wife and I became bankrupt in Singapore when our successful counseling and coaching business collapsed at the height of the Global Financial Crisis 2008-2009. Health wise I have been fortunate not to have had any serious illness. On Sunday May 29, I was diagnosed with Type 2 Diabetes, which I am learning to manage and control. I live with my wife of 34 years, Karen Gosling, on the Gold Coast, Queensland, Australia. Life is good!

So what does all of this have to do with my deepest, most cherished intentions, goals, and desires?
