Tag Archives: Life Change

OK, so I borrowed Journey's famous song title for this post, but please bear with me as I make a point that will change the way you see your life. Take a look at the refrain from the song that has now made a HUGE comeback thanks to that little TV show called GLEE.

I always loved playing tag when I was a kid, probably because I was a fast runner and always caught those little buggers. Well, I was tagged by Gina from A Muse In My Pocket for the Five/Five/Five blogging game (BTW, I just named it that).

I've often wondered why some people are just naturally happy and others are chronically distraught or depression. Is there really that much difference between their circumstances to cause such a dramatic opposition? I mean, really, don't we all have good days, bad days, bills that kill, kids that hit home runs, health issues, triumphs, and tragedies?

My daughter showed me this today...so worthy of our attention. Let's be thankful for the generation of young people who will be the leaders of tomorrow.

It's a likelihood that most of us have some form of void in our lives, whether it be in our relationships, our spirits, or our physical bodies. These empty places can remain for years without causing any noticable problems or they can immediately prod until action is taken to fill them.

Have you ever just been stuck on one question? Does it have the word "why" in it? We humans tend to want to know why everything happens, especially when things aren't good. Realizing that we may never know "why" is truly a revelation, a relieving one at that.

Every year we see more and more people become a part of the overweight/obese crowd. The reasons are somewhat obvious when you consider what it is that most humans eat on a regular basis.

I had a strong thought today about the topic of accountability and how important it is. When we can share our goals (even the ones in our weak areas) with another, the chances of accomplishing them are so much greater.

I love how many health magazines depict the perfectly happy models jumping into the air after their five-mile runs and drinking their fruit smoothies. No judgement...it's just the way the media is.

We have a real treat for you today. Meta-Physician, Deborah Stuart, forwarded the following chart to me to help with understanding and developing a healthful emotional state of being. First, please read a little about her and the contributions she's made to this science.

Have you ever wondered what opportunities and relationships you've missed out on because you were too afraid to put yourself out there? This happens so often when our minds become overly occupied by our failures, disappointments, and even our negative thoughts about who we are and what our abilities are.

Giving your full attention, body, soul, and spirit to another takes practice. Frankly, they should be teaching this in elementary school instead of making it an adult class at the community college that no one ever takes.

The thing you need to know about chronic anger is that it's root cause lies in a completely different emotion altogether. In fact, it's safe to say that frustration and unfulfilled expections are more accurately to blame than an out-of-control aggressive personality.

I guess this self-focus is really just another way of getting to know the real you. It's a good way to get to the bottom of any destructive behavior that might be popping up.

Welcome back to our discussion about time management. The question at hand is a rather important one to ask yourself if you want to get to the next level in any area of your life. You can either do what you have to do to keep your time in check or you can let it walk mercilessly all over you.
