How Do You Come Back From The Worst Case Scenario?

There was some sobering news a week or so ago. Two local children were killed in an accident. I didn't know them but I know many who did. This week I needed to drive down the road a couple of times passing where the accident happened. As I approached the corner just before where it happened, I... Sign in to see full entry.

I'm Too Busy To Talk To You

If some has time to tell you they are busy, they have time to speak to you. Don't you agree? What is the point of telling someone that you are too busy to talk to them? It is like saying I have time for others but not you. Don't talk about being busy. Just use that two or five minutes to talk. Sign in to see full entry.

You Can Be Right About Everything If You Pay No Heed To Others

If you choose not to listen to anyone else you'll always be right. Everyone else may know that you're wrong but if you choose to deny that possibility you will always be right.

If Someone Always Sides Against You It Means One Of Three Things

The first two may be linked. 1. The other person does not like you. 2. The other person has typecast you and is unlikely to consider you in any other role.

Sometimes Things Are Best LEFT To Fall Away........................

Last year there were two - one which I hosted and an extra one at a restaurant. It's always nice enough and every... Sign in to see full entry.

New Year's Eve, High Hopes, Reality Bites

Don't focus too much on New Year's Eve. Don't load yourself with resolutions. Think of the big picture - what you have, and where you are headed. New Year's Eve is just another day. My plan this year is to go to sleep early and wake up with a head start for the New Year. That's if my partying... Sign in to see full entry.

Are You Ready To Find New Patterns?

There is an imbalance sometimes in our hopes about our friends. We want certain friends to be everything and we wait for them to deliver and yet we close our hearts to others who do care and try to reach out to us. The holidays are a good time to try to break that pattern. If the feelings are true... Sign in to see full entry.

You Know The Right Thing To Do And Still You Don't Do It

It's often easy to see the right way after the event. This blog will offer self-help thoughts and ideas as and when they pop up. Almost always these observations will be bleedingly obvious.
