Why Does Everything Come With A Lesson?

Learning is essential to your life experience. Everything you do, everything that just happens, every experience you have, anyone you meet, anywhere you go, will teach you a lesson. Some lessons don’t manifest immediately, others are instantaneous, and still others appear one way but turn out to be another. Even the greatest minds to ever live, the smartest, wisest, and most educated on the planet today, and those who are yet to come can’t and don’t know everything. Nobody can

Is This a Good Idea? It Might Be for Me, But Not for You

Not every good idea is good for everyone. I have lots of ideas. You likely have lots of ideas. Some are ginormous, veritably insurmountable, and lofty as all get-out. Others are more approachable, have paths you can take that people have taken before, and/or roadmaps can be found and employed Most ideas are just ideas. Neither good nor bad. They simply are. And you have them all the time. I’ve been known to spew ideas just because they are fun

We Need Acceptance Over Tolerance

Tolerance is insufficient – but acceptance is empowering. When it comes to differences among people, the word tolerance gets thrown around a lot. Tolerance gets applied to tangible differences, like skin color, hair color, body type, sex, and so on. But frequently, it gets applied to intangible differences. This includes sexual orientation, gender, religion, nationality, politics, and the like. Tolerance, however, is insufficient. Why? Because it implies negativity. As in – “well, I don’t like that – but I’ll tolerate

How Am I a Puzzle Piece?

This post contains affiliate banner links. For more info, see my disclosures.   We are all a puzzle piece in this world.  We all fit together…but not always one with the other. Every single one of us is connected.  We all come from the same source, the same oversoul, or if you prefer, God/Goddess, Powers-that-be, etc.  As such, we are all one, or at least all part of the greater whole. Each of us is a puzzle piece that makes

How Do Want and Desire Differ?

This post contains affiliate banner links. For more info, see my disclosures.   There is a surprisingly substantial difference between want and desire. Want is based in lack.  One of its definitions, from dictionary.com is to be without, or deficient in.  Want comes from a place of lack and scarcity.  It is a statement that implies that there is not enough, that you have gone without because that which you want there is not enough of. Further, that implies that

Why is it the Same, But Different?

This day is the same, but different from yesterday. Despite their similarities, no two days are exactly alike.  No two people are alike.  Each and every one of us feels things differently.  No matter what the subject, it may feel as if it is the same, but it’s different. It is very easy to fall into routines.  We human beings are enormous fans of things being unchanging, and familiar.  But as I have been writing a lot lately, change is

Change is Opportunity

Change is opportunity. Since change is inevitable, and we can choose to embrace change or not, we get to decide if it is bad luck…or an opportunity. How does this work?  Change is opportunity because it is a chance for something new and different.  It might be a fresh start, it might be a shift, great or small, that can be used to take on a new direction or do different things. I believe that if more people saw change

How does a Change of Scenery Help?

Sometimes you need a change of scenery. This can be a tiny shift, or it can be rather immense, depending on the time and situation.  A change of scenery, however slight, can go a long ways towards building Positivity. Clean off your desk, rearrange your furniture, change out your décor, change your body wash, look at some digital images you have on your computer or phone or online.  Reposition and move about the small things around you that you can.

Three Ways to Live Life

There are, in my opinion, three ways in which we can choose to live life.  There are, as such, three realities people place their lives into. I have written about this before in previous posts, but I think it bears exploring further. Yes, I acknowledge off the bat that these are generalities.  But let’s also face another fact: everyone is unique.  We all think, feel and act differently from one another.  The processes that go into this vary, and though

How to Make Monday YOUR Day

Today will be whatever you make it be. It’s far too easy to approach Monday and the traditional start of the work week with distress, trepidation, displeasure, and unhappiness.  There is an entire culture of Monday woe in this society, which has been and continues to be capitalized on, and as such gets reinforced. Does anyone want Monday to suck?  I am pretty sure the answer is NO.  I don’t really know anyone who wants to be miserable, who wants
