We have a ton of opinions and make loads of assumptions about everything. All the time. Every day. Consciously and unconsciously. Is today’s weather good or bad? Is your colleague’s outfit suitable? Is that child’s behavior appropriate? We constantly pass judgment and give value to things. We jump to conclusions and label people and situations that occur as good or...
Do you have a clear picture of what’s getting you up in the morning? Do you know why you do what you do? For what purpose are you slugging along trying to get it all together? If you don’t know, you do best in finding out. We need a sense of purpose in life and figuring out your why can...
As the new year is upon us, I find that it’s an appropriate time to reflect on the year that’s passed. Sometimes we judge ourselves too harshly. That nagging feeling that you’ve accomplished very little. That you have nothing to show for. Most of the time, that feeling gives a false representation of reality. Before you plan your actions for...
The most well-regarded person at a workplace is usually the one that stays positive even when faced with difficulties. The one that stands firm for what they believe in, but at the same time is not afraid to acknowledge that there might be another way of doing things. No obstacle is too great. Every opinion is worth considering. And there’s...
Complaining is draining. Complaining is non-productive. Complaining doesn’t lead to anything. It doesn’t change things. Complaining only leads to more complaining. Down the rabbit hole we go. Sucking in people who just happen to be standing close by. Complaining is like a contagious disease. A toxin that gets under your skin. You might think it’s harmless, until one day, you...
Life hits you smack in the face. Think you’re going to have some time for yourself? Think again! Think you’re going to have time to contemplate and work on your blog? Think again! But in all this chaos is life. This is it. No reruns. No glorious afterlife. This is it. This is what you have to work with. You...
There is no such thing as a secure job. Really, there isn’t. Anyone can be laid off at any time for whatever reason. Having your own company and being your own boss might not be a sure thing either. You could lose a big client and all of a sudden your whole business is tilting. So what can you do?...
The first thing we ask when we meet someone is their name. The second question is usually what they do for a living. We have our standard answers for this and unfortunately, it’s rare that those answers spark interesting conversations. To be honest, after you’ve made the introduction route on some social event, do you really remember what the others...
Do you have a dream that you haven’t yet acted on? Is there something that you’d really like to do someday but you haven’t gotten around to it yet? Are you waiting for that perfect moment to execute your long planned project and start living your life the way you want to? Who’s holding you back? What’s holding you back?...
We tend to keep score of favors. If I do this for you, I expect a favor back some time in the future. If the favor never is returned, we get frustrated. Thinking to ourselves that person is really selfish, never returning the favor. But that person might never be in a position to help you. Never be able to...
