Put A Positive Spin on A Difficult Situation
Post Written By Eugene Morgan When things aren’t working the way we want, we can put a positive spin on it. We can find something positive about what we’re doing. It’s easy to look at it in a negative light. Looking at things negative just enforces the negative attitude about the situation. But when we […]
The Sun is Out; Challenging Assumptions
Post Written By Eugene Morgan We all make assumptions that aren’t true. There are assumptions that are even in our language, for instance, most of us would say, “The sun is out or the sun is going down.” Even though, we know that the earth rotates and orbits around the sun. Therefore, the sun isn’t […]
So Far So Good: Breaking Down Fears
Written By Eugene Morgan “A man jumped off the top of a skyscraper. As he passed the third floor window he was heard to mutter: ‘So far so good’.” When it comes to fear, we don’t jump into something without having some reservations. Most of our fears aren’t about jumping into something that causes death. […]
When Reality is still Subjective
Written By Eugene Morgan We all model reality through our background experiences. We have different experiences; therefore, we have different realities. No matter how real our experiences are, they’re still subjective. When we tell a story about an experience to another person, for them to understand us, the listener would have to sort through their […]
Faults
Post Written By Eugene Accepting our faults doesn’t mean we’re limited by them. But acceptance is the first step in freeing ourselves from the limitations of our faults. What can we learn from our faults and the faults of others? No one is without faults. It’s also good to know what they are. We’ve got […]
A Balancing Act between Resting and Productivity
Post Written By Eugene Morgan Resting is just as important as being productive. If we don’t get a good rest, our production decreases. Resting helps us to clear our minds, rejuvenate our bodies; it helps us increase our understanding about life. It’s also good to retreat so only to listen to our own voices, instead […]
Imitate Yourself, Find Your Own Path
Post Written By Eugene Morgan We’re unique in every way. We each have different interpretations for the same event, because each of us look at thing with a filter. Our filters are made up with our unique background that everyone has experienced. So why do we like to copy or imitate someone else’s work? We […]
Doing the Hard Things First
Written By Eugene Morgan Whenever we want to tackle a project, it’s better to do the hard part first. Even when the hard part of project takes longer to complete, because by the time we complete it, the rest will come easier. One thing is true about starting the difficult part first is that we […]
Worrying, Or Action
Post Written By Eugene Morgan Worries mean inaction and action means no worries. Some of us have a tendency to worry so much about things. Worrying keeps us from doing anything about it. But if we make a plan of action, our worries decease. Now we need to worry enough to consider the possibility to […]
Out of the Pit of Self-Doubt
Written By Eugene Morgan Self-doubt can limit our choices. Without choices no one is free. Unless we widened our mind, we won’t see choices that are in front of us to make. Self-doubt is another obstacle we have to go through or around in life. Usually self-doubt is created when something new that challenges our […]
Keep At It
Post Written By Eugene Morgan Keep at it when we see no end in sight. Keep at it when everything so far has failed. Keep at it when no one but us believes in what we’re doing. Keep at it when we don’t see any reason to continue. Keep at it when it’s raining. Keep […]
Lessons are Everywhere
Post Written By Eugene Morgan Life is full of lessons. We all experienced something the hard way. Some things are better experienced than told. Those of us who are parents want to tell our kids what they should and shouldn’t do. Most parents naturally want to protect their kids. When we were kids there were […]
Proof demands a Verdict
Written By Eugene Morgan Who said we can’t do it? We tell ourselves we can’t do it. Then we believe we can’t do it; not giving ourselves a chance to see if we can. We need to test it first, before we can say we can’t do it. We need to honestly test ourselves, instead […]
Today is a Gift
Post Written By Eugene Morgan A day is a gift to us. Receiving another day gives us an opportunity to celebrate life. It’s a good sign when someone says, “It’s good to be alive.” When all our senses, hearts, minds and spirits are in sync, we are experiencing a feeling being alive. We see the […]
It’s Never Too Late to Learn
Post Written By Eugene Morgan It’s never too late to learn. We ought not be afraid of learning something new. Throughout this blog, one of the main topics is about learning. Learning is not just about reading books and studying. Learning about experiencing new things we haven’t experienced before or sightseeing to places we haven’t […]
An Idea that grows into more Ideas
Post Written By Eugene Morgan When we have an idea we ought not be afraid to use it. Not every idea that pops up in our minds will be useful. But it’s nice to see if it can be useful in some way. Ideas are like finding a new pair of shoes that fit; we […]
Read, Learn And Apply
Post Written By Eugene Morgan Not only we ought to manage small projects but also we ought to manage one small project at a time because juggling multiple projects can easily overwhelm us. It’s better to master one skill first than trying to learn multiple skills simultaneously. It’s easier for our brains to process learning […]
