Depending upon what jobs you had, you may have occasionally been involved in workplace activities that were designed to inspire or motivate you and your coworkers to do … Continue reading →

You Can Have a Successful Fitness Routine

It can feel like a successful fitness routine is impossible. But I think many times that’s because we are looking for instant results. We don’t see the importance of building up our routine, learning how to be consistent and the hard work it takes to get where we want to be. Too often we have the end result in mind. We are fixated on losing a certain number of pounds, fitting into that dress, or being ready for the summer season. What we have to focus on is the here and now. A routine is something you do without even … Continue reading →

Marital Bliss Doesn’t Make a Marriage Work

Marital bliss…it is a common feeling experienced by newlyweds and one that seems to deteriorate with time. We tend to view this as a bad thing but I would like to challenge that.

There are bills to be paid, long days to get through, children to raise, pressures to deal with and the list goes on.

Homework Between Houses

I’ve mentioned before that my parents divorced when I was seven years old. My mother had sole custody and my dad had regular visitation. My brother and sister and I visited Tuesday night and every other weekend. In the beginning, we didn’t have much to worry about with school. I was in second grade and didn’t have much work to do at home yet. As we got a little older the issue of homework began to arise. My dad figured that since we didn’t get to see him very much all of our homework needed to be done before we … Continue reading →

That is why it is so vital to watch your child … Continue reading →

Mind Mapping to Success

I’ve often had difficulty thinking in straight lines or linear arguments. When I’ve been asked by various teachers at various levels to provide an outline for a presentation or a paper my face changes color (when I was younger it turned white out of fear and not it turns red because I don’t work that way). When I was younger the most useful tool I was ever taught was the idea bubbles: a topic in the center and various topics branching out from the central topic. When I was younger I would do this on a chalkboard or a large … Continue reading →
