You Have Always A Choice

Thu, 02 Feb 2006 00:00:00 +0100

People often say they have no choice when faced with a dead end. They say they have no choice but to take the one direction available, which is often a wrong one.

When they say that remark, they must understand that they have to take the blame for the consequences of what they will do.

However, truth is far from the often-circulated concept that man has no choice.

We do have choices. As long as you have rights to protect, you have a choice. When rights are denied, then so... (Read All)

What is Holding you Back?

Thu, 02 Feb 2006 00:00:00 +0100

Did you ever ask yourself one or more of the following questions: How is life so hard to me? Why canât I succeed? Why are all circumstances against me? Why donât I have the money I want (and need)? Why do I have this boring job? Whyâ¦? Whyâ¦? Whyâ¦.?????

Jesus, Iâ m sure you Did! *grin*

Me too, so nothing worse about it. Itâs just human!
The important thing is how long do you ask yourself these questions! What do you really get, if you ask them for yourself?

Greatness:"

Getting What You Want In Life

Tue, 07 Feb 2006 00:00:00 +0100

Do you know what you want in life? When is the last time you took a few minutes to think about where you are in life and more importantly, where you want to be? What types of aspirations do you have? What's stopping you from writing a few of them down and making them a reality? The answer is YOU! You can do it. Are you ready to make those goals a reality? Do you really want it?

Developing An Optimistic Attitude

Wed, 15 Feb 2006 00:00:00 +0100

How's your attitude lately? I caught myself doing something surprising a few days ago: being a pessimist!

I was working on a big project and making great progress, when suddenly I encountered a big obstacle that would take more time and energy to get through than I had anticipated. The first words out of my mouth were, "Of course, everything always goes wrong for me." Gasp! Who said that?

I tend to think of myself as a positive person most of the time. I almost always have a smil... (Read All)

Of course they do. Theyâre words we hear â or even use â almost every day. At times it looks like the world is being overtaken by idiots an... (Read All)

The Truth About Adult ADD and Follow-through

Tue, 16 Aug 2005 00:00:00 +0100

If you are an adult with ADD, chances are that at some point in your life, you've felt that you are not "living up to your potential." This judgment often manifests itself when you take stock of all the great ideas you've had that have never gone anywhere, and all the unfinished projects that you have started but never completed.

The overwhelming number of these things that have not been "followed through" can lead you to believe that you are not living up to your potential.

Diversity And Unity: Embracing Our Similarities

Sun, 19 Feb 2006 00:00:00 +0100

Have you ever felt uncomfortable with someone because they were different than you? Maybe they had a different ethnic background or skin color, or maybe they were "book smart" while you are more "street smart". Maybe they dressed differently than you do, or maybe you were just repulsed by them and you're not sure why.

I had a disturbing experience this week, in which a person was publicly ridiculing me for my spiritual beliefs. I can't lie, it stung. We all want to be liked and accepted,... (Read All)

Sun, 19 Feb 2006 00:00:00 +0100

When life places obstacles in our path, when things seem like they're breaking down and we grow weary of the struggle, it's a good time to step back and look for the gift. What gift, you say?

Every situation and experience in life holds a gift, lesson or blessing for us. Yes, even the really painful experiences, like the loss of a loved one, an automobile accident, or natural disaster. There is a gift there, if we look for it.

To find the gift, we simply have to ask ourselves, "W... (Read All)

What Transpires During A Panic Attack

Tue, 28 Feb 2006 00:00:00 +0100

What we usually perceive as a possible threat or danger brought about by a panic attack actually starts from the brain.

From the brain, signals are sent to the nervous system of our body.

It is the nervous system that is responsible in preparing our body to face or to escape the threat.

It is also responsible in returning our body to its original state of equilibrium or tranquility once the threat has gone away or has subsided.

In layman terms, there is this indep... (Read All)

Change

Sun, 05 Mar 2006 00:00:00 +0100

One thing in life is certain---change. Things never stay the same. If you are hoping for the status quo, then I?m afraid you will be disappointed. Just think back to how things were five years ago and you will realize that there is so very much that?s already different in a very short time.

I?m sure there are some of you who know people who refused to adapt to the computer age. I still know some ?old timers? who want to use word processors or even typewriters instead! Imagine. What is up... (Read All)
