A friend and I had a conversation recently, in which she remarked that, when confronted with three side-by-side doors, she would always choose one of the side doors.

Who’s watching you? We often don’t pay any attention to who is watching us, but we all get watched. Children watch us to learn how to behave in the world. They watch what you do, how you speak, the way you treat people. Friends watch us to see how we are, how we are following our dreams, how we strive. Toxic friends was us to see how bad it is, how we are suffering so they can support us in following our negativity. ( I apologize to all my friends from the olden days whom

What we believe to be true, actually may not be true. But what we believe, we make our reality. So for this Tip, I’d like to look again at this idea, because if we want to make changes, and if our life is governed by what we believe, then to make changes, our beliefs need to change too. And your beliefs are not as fixed as you think… HOW BELIEFS COME INTO BEING Our beliefs are woven together observations of others, teachings and our own experiences in life. As a baby, you ha

I'd be willing to bet we all know people who can recite Biblical scriptures as fluidly as they can say their names. Many times these people are also able to eloquently explain their interpretations of those scriptures. The ability to accurately quote scripture is held in high regard by many, as it is the expectation of those who choose to live according to this text to fervently study it daily, with the assumption they will be able to communicate what they’ve learned to others.

"Your past cannot be changed, but you can change tomorrow by your actions today." - David McNally

Stress makes you stupid. It sooner or later makes all of us stupid. I can prove it. So can you. Think back to the last time you rushed get to the post office before it closed to mail a package, only to discover when you got there that the package was back on your desk; or rushing to an appointment, you parked your car, and then came back later to discover you couldn’t remember where you had parked it.

Looking back (which I do only for this article), I can see how I allowed it to start and to build. I remember reading a book that contained a story very similar to a painful experience in my life over twenty years ago. I kept reading.

I could feel it happening and still continued

There’s an old story about a city slicker watching a farmer begin to train a mule. First, the farmer picked up a two-by-four and hit the mule over the head. Then he did it again … and again. The city slicker finally said, “I don’t get it. What are you trying to teach him?” The farmer replied, “I’m not trying to teach him anything yet; I’m just trying to get his attention.” Every day, your body and mind may be trying to get your attention before you have a big stress breakdown, resulting in anything from minor illness to a heart attack.
