A lot of the time, we have to do hard things. Work, family, relationships, they all require attention, energy and effort. The thing is, that none of these will hold our focus for long if they are always difficult. We need to find ease with the things in our lives as much as possible. Actually, … Continue reading Ease

Mistakes
If you've made a mistake, then congratulations! You've now, (hopefully) learned a valuable lesson. And so, you don't need to keep reliving it in your mind, in all its cringe-worthy detail.

Are we waiting for the world to settle down again before we can be happy? It may never settle down, especially if we don't actively choose happiness first. I don't believe it's … Continue reading Get Happy

It's important to take care of yourself. And practicing forgiveness actually takes care of you more than whoever it is you should forgive. Holding on to anger, grudges and resentment affects your health, not the jerk you feel it towards. Forgive, and forgive often. I write this for myself as much as anyone reading this. … Continue reading Practice Forgiveness
