I walked you through what one progression was like. Just one. That was one aspect of my life where I made myself small. That was one part of my life where I compromised myself into a place and a person that was unrecognizable. That was one teeny pebble on the Grand Canyon floor. I can… Continue reading I set myself up.

I binge watched The Maid recently. Have you seen it? No spoiler alert here at all. Truly. I’m not going to share even one detail that you wouldn’t see in the trailer. I will tell you that I think the show is pure fucking magic and Margaret Qualley and Andie McDowell (amongst other actors) deserve acclaim and… Continue reading The Progression.

I think we have absolutely and totally explored the concept of principled decision making. That is not to say that we don’t have anything left to say (or that I don’t), but rather, that we have enough information to apply to the situation I’m speaking of. What’s left? Well, I would like to touch on… Continue reading Sorry, but I just don’t want to.

I ended yesterday’s post in a spot that might have felt out of left field for some of you. I understand. I recognize that it was a strange toss in, but I really wanted to bring that concept into the discussion, and so, I did. The first part of the post, I described how we… Continue reading Make the time…

I talked yesterday about the idea of acting out of some principle. I was fairly negative about this idea when I brought it up, and I think it’s important to correct that notion, because I don’t believe the concept to be altogether disastrous. Not even a little. I think we have to hold fast to… Continue reading Crossing The Line.

My parents recently invited me to join them for an event. If you’ve been around here for a while, you know that I think the world of the people who brought me into being. I’m not just grateful because they did so. It’s more than that. They are wonderful to me. Generous, loving, compassionate, and… Continue reading No? Yes? Maybe? Okay, yes.

Welcome to the end of a long week, amiright? I know that I’ve challenged you a ton. I want to pick up where we left off yesterday and then I think we can go from there. Does that work? Well, sorry, that’s what I’m doing, so I sure as shit hope so. Someone comes to… Continue reading This. Is. Growth.

Sorry. I know. That was rude. Another cliffhanger. It had to wait. Did you wait, though? Or did you spend some time contemplating what next? Well, let’s discuss. You’ve gotten to the end of the little exercise triggered by a nonfat chai tea latte, and discovered that time and life experiences had hardened you to… Continue reading Revise and adjust.

I know you might be wondering how I am going to get back to where I started, the lyrics. I’m about to tell you. That exploration is actually going to be a two-parter. The first part is what I’ve been talking about thus far, the criticism of oneself. The second part is going to hone… Continue reading Try not to dwell.

That was a pretty big assignment that I gave you, eh? I mean, I know it. You might not have even known where to start. Maybe you didn’t even fully understand the implications behind the example story that I shared with you. That’s okay. It happens. In the Starbucks example, it’s important to understand that… Continue reading That girl.
