Whispers From The ‘Burning Deck’ &Raquo; 0Hyys7Cyd4P U Vbq

Personal and Professional Development Life can throw you off balance in so many ways, and you can lose that hard-earned confidence. At such times, the important part is to remember what you know, not what you don’t… Ai generated image In school, I was a backbencher, finding comfort in those rear seats. Little did I know that sometimes life throws you to the front. One day, the teacher asked me to speak in front of the class, and then as part of an elocution exercise, I was made to recite the poem “Casabianca” — “The boy stood on the burning deck.” As I grew up, the meaning of... Continue Reading

The Fight? &Raquo; Vector Peace Symbol With Flower

WARRIOR A Warrior, she’s often been, obsessed with other lands. In tending to her freedom, so content to raise her hand. Yet even in the midst of war, surrounded by alone she knew t’was might that brought her here, and sliced her to the bone. This Warrior has sheathed her sword. Its glint may dull, at will. Her wounds, now tender’d, body bathed. Her feet now soft and still. All wagers off, she’s settled in, sworn enemies released and whole. Old Warrior, the time is nigh to find yourself at home. An Elegant Mind’s Handbook When I wrote this poem, I struggled with the word old because... Continue Reading

Are you a person who enjoys the challenge of competition, but also likes to fit in? Admitting that a challenge energizes you but attempting to fit in with a group establishes a dichotomy that creates a conflict within. You cannot fit in and stand out. The first step is admitting that you have a strong drive to overcome challenges. A person who stands out must be unique, would you agree? Even in a group of unique individuals, you must be willing to stand out. If you don’t stand out, or if the group is unwilling to accept you as a standout, you’re in the wrong group. This internal conflict... Continue Reading

Key Factors For Happiness &Raquo; Great Job Emoji Background Png

Arthur C. Brooks and Oprah Winfrey have written a thought-provoking book together. It’s called Build the Life You Want: The Art and Science of Getting Happier. Yep. There are other books on how to get happy. Why is this one different? One of the many things I enjoy about this content is that Brooks and Winfrey share that happiness isn’t a feeling, it’s a direction. They invite us to consider getting happier as a process we can activate each day. That changes the game. They also invoke the power of three and discuss what research has determined as the three powerful factors that contribute... Continue Reading

Your Indicators Of Success &Raquo; Your Ioss

It’s better to change 10 things by 1% than one thing by 10% Dr. Tara Swart In a recent interview, author and neuroscientist Dr. Tara Swart describes how she considers the Law of Attraction, and, in particular, a vision board. She considers it as an activity log. She notes that it’s not enough to simply create the dream…it’s also necessary to action the dream. I believe this is a beneficial and action-oriented way of making your dreams work for you. At some point, your dream must transform into a goal. This means that you must begin to map out the steps to achieving it. This can... Continue Reading

Be One. &Raquo; Pauladtozer

Waste no more time talking about what a good man is like. Be one. – Marcus Aurelius Marcus Aurelius was a Roman Emperor. At the time of his reign, he was the most powerful man in the world. His now famous private journals, Meditations, weren’t meant for the public to read. They were his private thoughts, ideas he was working out within himself, for his eyes only. Marcus Aurelius was a Stoic. This did not mean that he wasn’t in touch with his feelings, that’s a misconception about the Stoic philosophy. He was disciplined, very thoughtful, and deliberate about how he expressed his emotions. He... Continue Reading
