You may have thought you would never find yourself in this position, but here you stand. A little befuddled, a little depressed, wondering if you’re wasting your life. You might be working sixty hours a week at a job that pays too little and asks for too much. You may be staying in a relationship […]

Never mistake the truth that you are in control of your life. No matter what you may think of the law of attraction and the role that intention plays in the quantum physics of the universe, it is impossible to believe that we are not in full control of ourselves. Or should I say that […]

The genre of self-help and personal development is rife with buzz words. Words like, “attraction,” “abundance” and “energy” sound good so we repeat them and nod along when they’re said. Playing fast and loose with the terminology has left the real, life-changing possibilities in the dust. The word “consciousness” has been reduced to meaning nothing, […]

Your instincts, your intuition, your gut, your heart. All things that are supposed to tell you the truth, right? All things that give advice which, when heeded, cannot fail, right? If that’s true then why do we still make wrong choices? Just think if we could discern when the information we’re feeling is “right” and […]

To start off the category of social do’s and don’ts, I wanted to talk about properly presenting yourself in a party or other social atmosphere. Few people, especially those of us who are quite shy (guilty!), realize that how we treat ourselves in these situations is always going to set the bar for how other […]

In the last week I’ve had my share of set backs and tonight they had begun to take their toll. I was feeling quite down and began to do what I always do when I’m overwhelmed by my feelings. I took out my journal and started writing down everything I felt and why I felt […]

Failure is funny. It likes to masquerade. One of the biggest reasons for “failure” isn’t really failure at all. So many people wallow in their failure, when the truth is that they made no attempt at all. They haven’t failed at anything, they haven’t done anything at which they could possibly fail. We’ve got a […]

It happens far too often; we let our unhappiness make us unhappy. We think that because we’re unhappy we can’t be hopeful, we can’t be joyful. We think that these emotions are incompatible. We think, If I were joyful, I’d already be happy. But that isn’t quite the case. You see, unhappiness is merely the […]

In some cases, cheating is okay. Cheating on a diet from time to time, say one day a week, has been shown to actually go a long way in promoting fat loss. This is, of course, assuming that your cheat days don’t turn into cheat weeks, at which point you’re only hurting your body more. […]

Okay, so we all know that life seems to be moving faster and faster each day. We’re getting better at taking in more information, or at least getting better at finding more information, the taking-it-all-in part is a whole other article. With everything we manage to shovel into our consciousness everyday, it makes a lot […]
