The Ramblings of the Titanium Don

Positivity: How do you feel?

How do you feel? You probably get this question or some variable of it a lot. How are you? How you feeling? How’s it going? It is also highly probable that more often than not you either ignore the question, or give a non-committal eh or ok or fine or good or such. This is a more important question than we give weight to, and it is in truth a powerful tool for generating positivity. How DO you feel? It’s

Positivity: Everybody Matters

Everybody matters. Black or white, male or female, big or small, fat or thin, rich or poor, gay or straight or in-between – you matter. We all are important in our own ways, and we all have an equal deserving of rights and protections and such. Everybody matters. Some communities, groups and cultures are more privileged than others. This is true whether you care to accept it or no, but for some the struggle to matter is easier and does

Positivity: Turning Negativity Around

What do I do when I am surrounded by negative people? That’s a really good question. What DO you do? In especial when you have no means by which to escape them (co-workers and family come to mind here). This is not too dissimilar in respects to news articles and social media posts calling attention to negative things, except those you can delete and ignore. How do you deal with other people’s negativity and not have that impact you? Every

Positivity: You Deserve It!

You deserve it. I don’t know what it is for you, but you deserve it. It might be an emotion like happiness. Or love. Or joy. It might be a thing, like a job. Or relationship. Or home. It might be small or grand, but whatever it is you deserve it. Too many places tell us how we are unworthy. We are too poor, too fat, too weak, too foolish to be worthy of anything. That is a lie. You

Positivity: You Set the Tone

I get to set the tone for my day. Will it be a good day? Will it be a bad day? Will it be a productive day? Will it be a day of total time mismanagement? It’s entirely up to me. It can be really easy to forget that we are in control of our emotions. Yes, things happen that trigger an emotional response in us, but we get to make the choice about how we are going to feel.

Positivity: You Are Amazing

You are an amazing individual. No, really. I might not know you in the slightest, but I can honestly tell you that you are an amazing person. We may disagree about any number of topics, we may have totally different and diametrically opposed backgrounds, but I can still tell you that you are an amazing individual. We tend to not give ourselves enough credit. We look for our faults, we work on the things about ourselves that are flawed…but this

Positivity: Accolades

Everybody likes to get accolades. Receiving a reward for a job well done certainly generates a lot of positivity. This does not need to be a grand thing, sometimes it takes nothing more than being told “thank you”. Accolades are something that everyone appreciates. Even when we do the things we do because it’s simply what we do, being rewarded in some fashion makes it extra special. As the social creatures that we are, we seek the recognition of our
