We all have issues. Get to know yours. Take the time and be patient. Learn about yourself. It might be quite uncomfortable and you may not like what you learn. But you will be a better person for it.

Squeezing It All In
There are days you can’t even imagine how you got through them. Stress, time, challenge and conflicts all play their part. Some days you have little choice but to squeeze it all in.
Where Did You Learn Your Thoughts?
You have thoughts about right and wrong, philosophy, religion and politics. Where did you learn those from? Did you ever consider different or opposing views? Did you ever challenge your thoughts robustly or have you simply accepted the first ideas that got into your mind?
Detail Can Be Time Consuming
Big generalisations are quick and easy. Getting into accurate detail takes time. Most people don’t have the time or want to make the time in their day. So they use the generalisation short cut.
Shifting Views
What does it take to shift a person’s view on a subject? Is it just one item, thought or moment? Or is it the constant review of the idea and it’s consideration, that, over time, adjusts and shifts?
Discover Your Finances
Have a real good look at them. Are you spending well? Do you get great joy from what you purchase? Is there anything you are buying that is unnecessary?
What Are You Really Measuring?
When we test or measure something, we must know why we are doing it. We also must know what other factors could be skewing or influencing the result.
Then we must assess the end we are achieving versus the end we may want to be achieving.
Think about this with respect to money, fitness, health and relationships.
All In Or Hold Back
There are times you need to be on the front foot and not hold back. Like that moment you stamp down the ramp in skateboarding, or begin your descent in ski jumping, there is no stopping or turning back. You are all in. Try to do that with everything you do.
Find The Lesson
Sometimes we have a situation which we wish wasn’t happening. We may focus on how it has affected us negatively. This time, try to see how it’s a blessing in disguise. Because of this challenge, who did you meet? What did you learn? How will you build on this experience to make life even better?
Time To Go
When is it time to leave? This can apply to a party, a job, a relationship, a casino or a country. Most people don’t like leaving when all is going well. Some folks prefer to stay longer if they think they can fix it, improve it or it is going to change for the better.
The decision to leave is a complicated one and really depends on the circumstances in the moment. That said, you should definitely consider your options, at various times, though sometimes your grass is greener than you think.
