  Do you get bored? Do you find yourself with ‘nothing to do’!? Perhaps I should say – nothing you want to do. Quite honestly, I’m not certain I’ve ever been bored but if I were, knowing that a cure was at hand would be wonderfully comforting. But, what would you do if you found yourself bored? There’s a wonderful […]

  Is there such a thing as ‘a simple’ … to anything! Granted it depends on the issue but even with the simplest of questions… is there ever just a simple answer? I’m beginning to seriously doubt it. Or maybe it’s that no one wants to commit themselves to something ‘obvious’ or ‘simple’ because life has ceased to be

  Do you know what yours are? Those irritating behaviors, attitudes, and/or emotions that trip you up. Just when you think you have finally ‘matured’ and mastered them… they blindside you. Do you know what causes you to stumble? Whether or not you realize, you really do know, however it’s an issue of who’s in control – you

  Are you generous? Perhaps just as important… do others see you as generous? Do you want to be considered as a generous person? Now the crux of the question – generous about/with what? Your time? Your resources? Your thoughts? Your you? Generous is as much about the intangible as is is the material. Generous is always a

  Where are you on the confidence continuum? Supremely confident or low self esteem? And the focus/issue is not the point, I’m talking about your overall rating of you. Smugly Supremely Confident is not a positive nor is it attractive but snivelingly low self esteem isn’t either. Your level of confidence really becomes a method

  It’s not always easy and sometimes it is extremely difficult to cope with a disappointment – regardless of the ‘type’. For many of us, the first reaction to disappointment is pouting. Pouting can take many forms but there are both childish and adultish – and both exist, are visible, and are undeniably pouts. There are multiple issues

   How do you arrive at your decision? There are many types of decision making styles… which describes you? Do you laboriously consider each and every option and ramification? Do you, after asking a number of people, accept the ‘majority’ opinion? Perhaps you adopt the ‘fly by the seat of the pants’ approach Do you take

  While I say, often, that it’s all about you, it’s because it all starts with you. But if it only stays with you then you’re not doing anything with what you are and have (and have been given). Yes… it starts with you, and it is all about you… but it’s also – more!

  Have you ever just been in a ‘mood’. No identifying marks. You can’t say it’s just … or it’s only… (I intensely dislike the dismissive ‘just’ and ‘only’). Initially, you really can’t identify ‘mood’ – what it is, where it came from, why it’s here – it just is! I really, really hate those times. And

  depends, basically, on what you put in. The old ‘what you see is what you get’ can be applied to your ‘gettings’. What you do is of paramount importance. If you do nothing, do you still expect? Many people do. The do nothing but expect something is the ‘free ride’ mindset – but this doesn’t
