A new approach. I hope you like it.

Sometimes, new is good. I hope you’ll overlook the fact that I am reposting. I wanted to see what this looked like. Maybe I’ll post something like this every end-of-month, so in case you didn’t read a post, they are all in one place.

So, what do you think?

Besides, trying something new is good, right? And considering it’s the end of the month, it works out well.

Plus, I like being able to see my posts this way as well. It’s been two months of reflection and sorting things out. Mental health, identifying the truly important, and relationships. Some pretty heady subjects. But what else is there to do in these two dark, cold months?

Now, I contend with this Afib diagnosis. I’m having a hard time adjusting to the medications. But I try to see things in perspective. It’s not terminal. It’s treatable. Perspective certainly helps. Besides, I’m an overcomer in Christ.

I hope you have a great weekend and blessings to each of you.

    Why anxiety strikes and what we can really do about it

    Why does anxiety strike and what can we do about it? What are the triggers for anxiety? (And there are always triggers.) The other day I was thinking about the cause and effect of something.

  • Oops. I need to apologize

    Well, I see I need to apologize. Apparently, many of got 3 or 4 newsletters. How I don’t know. I got a message saying it wasn’t sent and then I get three messages saying it was. I will look it over when I get a chance and make sure it doesn’t happen again. Again, I Read more

    Fail or Succeed? The questions and answers

    Fail or succeed? Fail or succeed? Which do you choose? It’s hard to believe anyone would choose failure. However, when you consider all the things we do to sabotage success, I think it just might be true. Why is that, do you suppose? It’s really not that complicated. To be successful in any pursuit means Read more

    Very wise words from a complete stranger

    The Class Reunion At a class reunion years ago, I heard some very wise words from a stranger. It was my husband’s reunion and I did NOT want to go. It’s not that I actually suffer from social anxiety but I hate these kinds of things, although I do very well at them. That’s the Read more

    Life is the art of drawing without an eraser

    Life is like drawing without an eraser. Isn’t that a great statement?  I heard it on a Hallmark movie. I hadn’t heard it before. Maybe you have. Later in the movie, the statement was attributed to John W. Gardner so I just want to give proper credit. My husband and I took a walk in the woods Read more

    MORE UNUSUAL GOAL-SETTING STEPS

    Pay attention to your behavior Here are more goal-setting steps. Setting goals sometimes means breaking down the steps. And goals change depending on the task. Here are some more goal-setting steps. Most of us live our lives mindlessly, never paying attention to what we are doing, much less why we are doing it. In my Read more
