Design Your Destiny
I watched The Secret the other day. It was my second time watching. Although I don’t like how they reference the universe and not God I do like some points they have. One is we can design our own destiny. Keep reading »

Self-Affirmation
“One word frees us from the weight and pain of life; that word is love.” –Sophocles
There was a study done that explores certain affirmations that were missing or lacking in our childhood. The absence of these words may be at the heart of our most basic fear; unconsciously we may still be seeking to hear these words from others.
Here are a few: Keep reading »

Single & The City
In efforts to change things up a bit, and to also not turn my precious column into a monthly bitter rant on the ups & downs, ins & outs of being single, I am going to share some tips, advice, and commentary from outside sources on topics relating to singles! Fun, right!?! (Should’ve thought of this a few months ago instead of boring you with MY single woes, haha). Keep reading »
Fake It Til You Make It
We have all heard the saying fake it til you make it. I never really understood what it meant until recently. I don’t mean material things like clothing, money, etc. Its all about outlook and how we view things, how we view our situation. I was reading an article not too long ago and a lady was saying she was diagnosed with cancer. Although she was tired, sick, didn’t feel like making it through another chemo session, she faked happiness. Keep reading »

Through A Man’s Eyes…
“It Takes 2″
As a young man still learning the inexhaustible characteristics of a woman I seem to always find myself caught in a particular lecture called “Things a Man Should be Doing for a Woman.” I hear from women all the time about the things their mother, grandma, aunt, etc. tells them of how a man should treat a lady. He should be respectful, open doors, always offer to pay when you go out, cater to your needs, be courteous, a protector, provider, and the list goes on. I, for one, honestly agree! I see nothing wrong with a man doing all of those things, in fact, I encourage females to have high standards and expect that from a man. The one thing that does trouble me is for some females the lines of communication got mixed up or the channel got cut off when that motherly figure spoke about “How a Woman Should Treat a Man.”
Checkout Time
Do you ever get so overwhelmed with stuff that you feel like you are about to “checkout?” By checkout I mean like you are so swamped by life that you can’t reach the shore. I am at the point that I feel it’s checkout time. Something has got to go; something needs to be released in my life. I have a million things to do and accomplish with not enough time to do so. I look at my calendar and it’s nuts, then I look at my alignment of my life and its direction and it’s complex. Keep reading »
