Lessons from the ‘Furries’…

They don’t know prejudice unless we teach them what it is.

They don’t know fear unless we teach them to be afraid.

They don’t know limitations unless we box them in.

Today, let’s take a few lessons from the ‘Furries’ of the world;                                                                  Forgive others’ mistakes, show love and happiness, and accept those who look/act different from you.

Dumb Blonde

Some questions for you:

Is Taco Bell the Mexican phone company?

Can you use an AM radio in the evening?

Was there really a General Motors in the army?

Is Meow Mix a CD?

Shall I put “Aquarius” at the bottom of the form where it says “sign here”?

Hey, not everyone can be a rocket scientist !

Replacement Habit

It’s a new year, a new month, a new day. I’m not interested in posting a new year’s resolution diorama. Resolutions are made to instill pressure and guilt. I prefer to think of resolutions as a new path, a new way to BE, a BETTER way to journey.

No matter the change, the idea is to not give yourself a time limit (this makes you anxious) and not to regulate a journal (this makes you depressed AND anxious). Just ease into your new habits…replacing the ones that made you want to change with habits you want to keep. We are creatures of habit. We are also pack driven, no not the six pack, the peeps’ pack. Humans tend to emulate those around them.

I’m not saying you should dump your buddies…but if you are trying to make a serious change in your life, for example let’s say you want to eat healthier and lose weight (most popular “New Years Resolution”) it could be helpful not to hang out with the McDonald’s frequent flyers. Change is hard. I know. I have made a major change with this new year and I can say this method is working brilliantly. I have replaced the bad with the good. I have developed a replacement habit. I stay away from my pressure points and when I get tempted I have a visual diversion to keep me grounded and strong.

No, it’s not new age, it’s training the mind. Our mind is tricky and clever and you must be cunning. Perhaps it could be likened to a chess game. Just remember, if you lose the first set there is always a new game you can start. Be dedicated for a win.

Whatever your goals and wishes are for change, I truly wish for your success. It is not easy but it CAN be done. Day by day, … realize the need, resolve the reason, replace the habit.

I would like to share with you one of my favorite quotes:

ALL THAT WE ARE IS A RESULT OF WHAT WE HAVE THOUGHT. THE MIND IS EVERYTHING. WHAT WE THINK WE BECOME.  - Buddha

I am NOT in the MOOD to hear NICE things OK?

Sometimes there are so many people trying to give you advice and instructions that you just want to scream SHUT UP! already. There are times when the only answer to our frustrations can be found  by our own determination to FIGURE IT OUT.

Good Luck.

Creative Life

Everyone has creativity. A teacher is creative because she finds new ways to entice children to learn. A surgeon is creative because he creates a healing solution. A plumber is creative because he creates ways for us to deal with water. A secretary is creative because she creates organization out of chaos. Don’t say you are not creative…. Everyone is creative. Believe in yourself and create something wonderful with your life. Go on!
