...you least want to do, is often the best thing for you. I have developed quite the procrastination expertise, over the years. Example: n my tween and early teen years, it would, literally, take me hours to do the dishes. My imagination - with the counter becoming my "parallel bars" (I am the same age as Nadia Commaneci); or a spoon becoming my microphone (of course, the radio was on - 70s music ruled) - would take over. I had a good time; but STILL had no desire to just do the dishes. More often, than not - all the time you wasted attempting to avoid, seems silly, when you look back. Now, my daily life-goal, is to "Eat the Frog" - tackle the most difficult task, early in the day. Still not 100%; but over the last few years, I have discovered I am a morning person - so that is my most focused time, overall. Commitment to doing "The Thing" REALLY IS the best choice. Remember, it can be a catalyst to getting even more done. What are some things you may be struggling with - your "frog"? We would LOVE to hear any insight you might have.

...with a person who NEVER "gets" you - has you explaining your motives for nearly everything you say, or do - irregardless of your relationship. Sounds like a sustainable relationship, right??! NOT!!! Are they willing to do the same for you? If you question their motivations for ANYTHING, do they tend to get salty? Wondering why you're questioning them? Are you losing YOUR OWN thoughts and feelings, while pursuing their approval and acceptance? I understand relationships take time to build and grow - but if you do an assessment, today - are you BOTH putting your best into growing your relationship? I get it - life happens, and not everyone can do 100% EVERY day; but if you only have 60%, are they able to help with that other 40% THAT day, to at least try? Then, on their low days, are you able to reciprocate? Relationship balance is rarely 50/50; but are you working as a team? Each of you utilizing your skills, and attempting to grow your relationship on a daily basis? That's the rub. What ways can you begin to work together on this assessment, and decisions, if necessary? What If you cannot? We would LOVE to hear any insight you might have.

...is NOT your fault. I will say it, again - how people treat you is NOT. Your. Fault. Period. I think this is a good place for me to stop writing. We would LOVE to hear any insight you might have.

...for us to move forward, in life, is to release the "small things" that continue to hold us hostage, where we are. One is grudges - while seemingly huge, are actually a small thing. Believe me - I was raised by a "grudge holding master"!!! Some of my family still holds them; and the "master" has been gone since 2012!!! I have made choices in my life to, first, release grudges that weren't mine to hold; then, to move onto my own - and release them. All a part of the process of personal growth. Periodically, something random will pop up, and I have to take a look at it - and place it where it belongs - usually, in the past, to remove the power it's attempting to take from my present. In this life, I need to be full power, ya know??! What are some of the "small things" holding back YOUR personal growth? We would LOVE to hear any insight you might have.

As a child, I WAS SILENCED about SOOOOO many things: - family secrets - my own Sexual Abuse - how I felt about MOST things etc... Now, as an adult, finally having a voice, I am in the process of learning that it's okay to be silent; that there are MANY times I have NO reason to share my unsolicited opinion. One example - I don't have to insert my opinion on anyone else's life choices. I, personally, believe we all stand alone at the end of our life; my opinion about ANYONE else will not mean a thing, in that moment; so why waste my precious time on earth? Though I may disagree, for whatever reason - I may be given an opportunity to share it - if I'm not, my job is to reconcile it within myself. Our job on earth is to love and be supportive of others. Sometimes, choices must be made, however. We are not required to partake in anything we don't support. The old "love them, but not what they do". Does this remind you of any current, or past situations in your life? We would LOVE to hear any insight you might have.
