Keep Your Cool
Angry outbursts are rarely a good look. Especially on adults. Get some help from books, videos or therapists. You can improve if you give it some effort. It will be worth it.
Appreciate Your Mother
Mom, Mum, Mother, or whatever you call that special woman who gave birth to you or raised you.
Sunday, in the UK, is Mother’s Day. A good time to give thanks for all that your Mom has done for you. From being a wee little thing, pushing on a swing and pushing you in a pram, to helping you learn to walk and maybe read.
She’s been there trying to make your life better in any way she can. Sometimes, or rather quite often, we don’t fully understand all that our Moms do.
So call her today, visit her, write her a letter or remember her and her place in your life.
Appreciate your mother.
Have A Purpose
If you haven’t ‘found’ a purpose by now, create one. Decide what you will focus on and go all in.
No complaints. No issues. Just get your head down and drive forward with every minute. Do not allow others to distract you. Firmly tell them not now or not today.
Do these things for a week. Then a month. Then continue. Your life will change immeasurably.
Taste Or Waist?
Do you prefer to satisfy your taste or manage your waist? What’s more important to you? If I look, I will be able to see which you prefer.
There may not be a right or wrong. However, if you want one but focus on the other, happiness will elude you.
If you let yourself drift along, it will be harder for you. Being determined, committed and following through will give you a feeling of having a super power. You will love it!
Think of sugar as poison. Eating poison, or items with poison in them, would be terrible for you. Stop thinking sugary items are a treat. They are more of a threat to your health.
Focus on your waist but allow moments of taste to be fully enjoyed. Enjoy and even savour the taste of all food and drink you consume. Linger on it. Enjoy!
Who Decided To Call Green Green?
Who created the word? Does someone get credit for it? Why did they call it ‘green’ and not ‘purple’, ‘cinade’ or ‘basketball?’
Why did someone choose these 26 letters? Or earlier letters than these? The creation and selection of these letters, words, sounds and phrases seems so strange.
They seem rather random. But also completely normal now that I am so used to them. They are the code and key to everything.
Pay attention to the words you use. They mean far more than you think.
Ageing Is A Gift
What’s the alternative? Need I say more?
Keep Things Calm
Be careful how you speak and what you say. When you get a bit excited, anxious or passionate, it’s easier to say things that alienate others, even while you might be trying to get them on your side.
Stay away from name calling and moral superiority. Stick to the facts and know they may interpret the same facts differently. Be kind. Understand your intent.
It’s too easy to lose family, friends, partners and others by chastising them or saying things that aren’t very kind, just because they have a different view of things.
Otherwise you become part of the problem, not the solution.
Keep things calm.
Lead By Example
Quite simple. Demonstrate leadership through your own actions. Less talk. More action. People are watching. Demonstrate before you castigate.
Keep Trying
You don’t know how much effort is required. What effort will break your opponent? Act with persistence. Keep trying.
