Eliminate This and Be Happy

Tweet An interesting thought popped into my mind.  Let’s see if you think it’s interesting too.  Here’s the thought: “Loose lips sink ships”.  We’ve all heard that old wartime saying.  How about an updated version?  “Loose lips sink lives.” Consider love and hate. Let’s start with hate. I’m somewhat an authority on it.  I’ve been a hater.  It’s true.Before Larry Crane came along in my life andintroduced me to Lester Levenson, I was a hater.  I was pretty darn good (or should I say, bad at it), to be perfectly straight with you.  Am I all done being a hater …

What’s bothering you?

Tweet Perhaps you’ll agree that when something is bothering you, it prevents you from being at peace.  In truth, the more we try to figure out “what-to-do” or “what-not-to-do” actually keeps the situation from changing.  Take a moment and look at this consideration more carefully.  Whatever we are focused on, is what we are creating for ourselves.  So the more we dislike someone or something, is causing us to actually attract more of those unwanted situations into our life.  As perplexed and almost backwards as this appears, when we are thinking negatively or from a limited point of view, we …

Emotional Eating: What is it telling us?

Tweet Emotional eating is often an unhealthy and uncomfortable attempt of trying to distract ourselves from facing something we deem as unpleasant.  So often we overeat without realizing we may be trying to cover up some level of insecurity.  We may also be using food as a means to avoid doing something.  We may also use food at times to ward off feeling bored or unmotivated.  At times we may use food to offer ourselves some level of comfort.  We may also use food as a measure of reward—similar to what our parents did when we were young such as …

Disagreeing with others

Tweet Do you ever find yourself disagreeing with others?  Or maybe you find yourself disagreeing with yourself?  Perhaps you’ll agree that disagreement is pretty much an indication that we are very much in non-agreement or strongly dislike of something in its current reality.  It is also saying that on some level, we may think that others should change or refrain from acting or thinking as they are currently demonstrating.  It is important for us to remember, that if we find situations offensive or confrontational, it is an opportunity for us to examine our thinking and begin changing what we are …

Having Successful Relationships

Tweet Our emotions and wants in regards to our relationships are indications that we are often not in control.  Furthermore, the “I can’t and I won’t” thoughts that are playing in the background keeps us from taking positive action.  Each “I can’t or I won’t” thought is actually a limitation.  These limiting thoughts are the primary factors keeping us in unhealthy relationships.  Many of us are stuck in fear.  The fear causes us to repeat the same unhealthy patterns, over and over again.  The results are often our being even more out of control because we don’t know how to …
