Living my Life again

Living my Life again

Smartphones and social media sites are becoming a part of our everyday lives. I used both in my work for many years, as they helped me with promoting and personal branding. I found myself on Facebook, in particular, as I connected with people from my past. Besides my blogs, both Xing and LinkedIn also became a part of my life, and I found myself constantly thinking about what messages to send out to the cyber world.

Chronically, when the New Year comes around, there is usually a lot of talk about resolutions. Most people want to slim down … so they make a weight loss goal. However, have you ever thought about spending less time in front of your computer? What does technology take away from your life? Whenever you are on your computer, you are neglecting some other aspect of your family.

What is your purpose
February 5, 2015

What is your purpose?

When I talk to you about your purpose we are not talking about you becoming a pilot, a famous movie director, a professional basketball player, or a manager of a highly successful night club.

These are job positions.

They are very worthwhile and achievable goals. If you are trying to use your given talents and become successful, then these are very worthwhile things to shoot for. However, these things are not necessarily what your purpose is.

You will never be merely a psychologist or business person … not unless you allow this to happen to you. Or unless you spend your whole life letting your career entirely define you. If you are willing to allow that to happen, then it’s destined to happen.

Inevitable Change

Inevitable Change

Change can be scary and painful, that’s why many people stick with the status quo. It’s much easier to remain the same and keep on going like you’ve always done.

People stick with what they know. They remain in jobs that don’t fulfill them. They stay in relationships that lack love. They live in spaces that don’t feel like home. They allow their lives to remain in limbo because they are afraid to experience something new. My experience is that fear of the great unknown can paralyze to a high level. It gets even scarier when you have no control over the things in your live that are changing. That’s the reason so many people fear changes in policy, procedure or the economy.

Meditation Challenge Quieting your Mind

My Meditation Challenge: Quieting your Mind

I’ve read many articles on mediation, however, I didn’t really understand what the big thing about it really was. Most of the time I’ve been in search of power instead of peace and thinking my whole life there was only one way to achieve this power: By having lots of money!

You are probably familiar with the theory that humans do not use their brains to the fullest potential, right? So how come no one ever asks why this is so? And why is there no discussion accompanying this theory how our brainpower can be increased?

Reconnect

Reconnecting

Is there one person that you used to be close to for a very long time, and now you are just basically strangers at this point? Maybe you aren’t sure what happened exactly … things slowly drifted, and although there isn’t any bad blood, it seems like things don’t work any longer. It is just as easy for strangers to turn into best friends, as it is for best friends to turn into strangers.

About a week ago I met a friend on the way to my Salsa dance class. We hadn’t seen us for more than 15 years and in the past we were very close friends. Suddenly, relationship came to an end, sort of we slowly drifted away with our friendship until, one day, we simply lost touch. This has happened to me several times throughout my life.

It made me feel very odd, so I took some time off to think about why this happens …
