What Ifs
Do you ever find yourself falling into the “what if” trap? What if this happens, or what if that happens? This is called worry, and worries are neither helpful or necessary. The things people worry about rarely come true. Do not waste your energy on worry.
Turn the what ifs around. What if everything turns out okay? Things always seem to work out the way they are supposed to…
Ashley Evans Interview I The Determined People Podcast
Ashley Evans of Elevate Therapy and Wellness joins me in the studio to discuss various therapeutic approaches to heal trauma. We talk about EMDR, Brainspotting and the use of psychedelics in treatment. Join us for a “trippy” show!
The Right Choice
All of us have made decisions in our lives that haven’t served us well. Sometimes we make the same decisions repeatedly, knowing they are wrong. Forgive yourself if you have been guilty of this.
The choice of how to live our lives is ours and ours alone. We can make decisions that lead us to light and life, or we can pursue darkness. The desire to change begins with abandoning old ways, replacing them with new, better ways. But it’s up to us to decide…
Outliers
Do you ever feel like an outlier? You know, someone who is different from the rest.
All of us are outliers. That’s one of the things that makes the mosaic of planet earth so full of beauty. Each of us is uniquely gifted and talented. Recognize your gifts and put them to work to create good in the world. You really are special…
God’s Voice
God is still speaking to us. Sometimes He uses other people to get a message to us, while other times we might get His word from something we read. But He isn’t silent, even during the times we aren’t talking to Him.
There’s a lot of noise in the world. Talking heads, blow hard politicians and negative people can consume our energy if we let them. Spend some time in silence every day. Clarity comes when you eliminate the noise…
Better
Advertisers tell us about “new and improved” products all the time. They set our expectations higher.
When it comes to self reflection, shouldn’t we be asking ourselves this question: How can I be better?
Create It!
We become what we think about, so where do your thoughts lie? And if you pray, pray expectantly, thanking God before your prayer is answered. Then believe it will happen…
The Madness
Everywhere you look it seems the world has gone mad. The craziest among us get the attention, and how dare we stand up for what’s right because we are marginalizing the minority.
Yet I believe in the goodness of mankind. There is good everywhere, too. You just have to look for it. And if you can’t find it? Be good…
Patience
It’s said that “patience is a virtue,” but I have a difficult time being patient. Yet I don’t think I’m without virtues.
My patience runs thin with ignorant, rude people. My patience’s is infinite with toddlers. Toddlers are just trying to learn how the world works. I’m trying to learn that myself!
If you struggle with patience, remember that you aren’t missing virtues. You are simply human…
