Development tools for a better you
Piggy-backing off of the topic I chose to write about last week… I’d like go a little more in-depth about learning how to live your life for yourself, and ways to allow yourself to be happy. Sometimes it’s just not enough to simply go through the motions- I don’t really know anyone who enjoys feeling like they’re […]
Recently, I’ve been doing a lot of thinking about what’s most important to me in life. You may think that sounds a bit strange, or wonder, “how can you not know what is important to you?”; but please, allow me to explain. Sometimes in life, we as humans get so caught up in doing the […]
As I mentioned in a previous blog post, I am an avid quote “searcher”. I LOVE exploring different means and sources to find that one quote that really resonates with me and gets me to think about things on a deeper level. The other day I ended up stumbling upon one that really hit […]
In life, it is inevitable for us not to have “one of those days“. It’s just something we accept as part of being a human! But, sometimes, we don’t feel like we’re just having “one of those days”, but more like one of those weeks, or months, or YEARS, etc. Be it because of a […]
Last week, Cindy Fabico (co-owner of Life Skills Resource Group), referred me to a Psychology Today article titled, “It’s Not All About You!” by Carlin Flora.

What is friendship? According to a basic google search, it is a noun meaning, “the emotions or conduct of friends; the state of being friends”. Some synonyms for “friendship” are: close relationship, mutual attachment, bond, tie, link, and union.

Mahatma Ghandi. Even if you don’t really KNOW much about him, it’s inevitable that you’re at least familiar with one of his famous quotes. Perhaps you are familiar with, “As human beings, our greatness lies not so much in being able to remake the world – that is the myth of the atomic age – […]
Since we have now officially entered the month of March, and with St. Patrick’s Day around the corner, I felt it would be appropriate to touch on the subject of luck. Admittedly, I used to say that it’s not even as if I don’t have “good luck”, but that I actually just have no luck, […]
