Happiness in a Recession
Over the past few months I’ve fallen back into the habit of reading the news. It’s all recession, economic meltdown and toxic debt all the time. It doesn’t help that I work of a bank. A bank that failed last year, was taken over by the FDIC, and then sold to a mega-bank. For the [...]
Progress Report
It’s been over a week since my last post. I’ve been keeping very busy. I’ve also been neglecting my writing. In addition to this blog I keep a personal journal which I haven’t written in for a while. I will definitely try to write more frequently. I find it’s a very helpful tool for though [...]
1 Take 100% Responsibility for Your Life
The first principle in the book “The Success Principles” by Jack Canfield is the one on which everything else is built.

Taking Inventory
Before I get too far along it makes sense to take an inventory of my tools. Perhaps by listing my strengths I’ll get some ideas of which way to go.
I am intelligent
I am good with computers (both Mac and PC)
Hmm, it’s difficult to examine oneself this way. We’re not really trained to be aware of [...]
Simply My Life
My path is undefined. I am a hiker lost in a dark forest. I follow the trail through the woods without any particular destination in mind. “You’ll know it when you see it,” I keep telling myself. Perhaps it’s just through those trees ahead. It looks sunny over there. I set up camp for a [...]
