I work (soon to be worked) with people. Lots and lots of people. All different kinds of people in a job where I’m selling things that people need; it’s my job to tell them what they need. People that very affluent, large construction business owners that spend 30,ooo in a days time to folks barely [...]
Fear. A four letter word for adrenaline-overload-oh-shit-what-the-hell-is-happening-flight-or-fight-ism. One of the biggest human conditioned fears is social interaction; oddly enough with all the communicating we do here, letting people get to know… us. We have concentric circles of boundaries that place others in nice neat little areas of “You can come this far but NO [...]
What do you do when you’re hurt? And not in the “some guy hollered at me in caps on the internets” or “I got cut off in traffic” or “my boss said I needed to improve”… sorta way. But when someone you’re close to… screws up. What if that person in your life (family, [...]
You… have a choice. You have the ability to determine who and what you want in your space at this very moment. This is up to you and you only, no one has the right to impose where you do not wish them to be. One must not be a bully, we’ve all heard that lesson [...]
I write. A lot about being sensual and feeling sexy and how to be comfortable in your own skin. I’m now unashamed of my body and it’s taken thirty something 40 years to feel this way. I’ve written post after post about this but if you’ve never read me before then here and here [...]
What is this sense that we have that gives us the “right” to be set above others? To rail “I deserve this.” To state … I’m “better than”. And before you heckle me, no I’m not talking about being treated fairly or with dignity and respect. More of a “Imma GET mine.” attitude. All [...]
That horrible awful moment… when you realize you have absolutely NOTHING to write about. Things in life are going along swimmingly, so much so that you would appear like you were bragging. Scratch the angsty posts. (dammit) No baby kittens or whales or seals or any other baby animal (that you know of) is being [...]
Self fulfilling prophecy. Defined as: a prediction that directly or indirectly causes itself to become true, by the very terms of the prophecy itself, due to positive feedback between belief and behavior. (wiki wiki wiki. i thank you) Just a fancy way of saying “What you believe … you become.” – in ‘personal’ terms of course. [...]
I remember those painful awkward years. Where I wished I was anything… but me. Wished I didn’t adore science fiction or read the dictionary (for fun). Wished that I didn’t have coke bottle glasses or that I would have rather spent my Saturday night writing instead of anything else. More than anything else I wished [...]
Why is it so much easier to believe the negative? Even the most self efficated (not a word. should be.) people with extremely high self esteems will doubt. It’s part of our nature, our character; this questioning. The triad of Ego, Super Ego, and their evil sister Id; say this is so. Let’s face it… [...]
