I am insecure. My self-esteem and confidence will fluctuate depending on my mood…
Grace Hopper is a celebration of women in computing. This is my second time at this amazing conference (#ghc15) — this year it was in Orlando and has grown to 18,000 attendees. Here is what I took away from the many inspiring women at Grace…
When the only choices you are left with are either win or perish.
Today, it’s so easy to grab a glimpse of what people depict as the perfect life. Pictures flood our…
Tony, I’ve plunged deep into the neurological issues around sleep for the last decade. Great to see your focus on this.
As the working world pushes longer and harder work cycles, caffeine becomes the Fuel of Choice. But it’s a Futile Fuel, as the damage to adrenals is a menace, over time. And the compromise to sleep and…
I had a virus on my Macbook recently. Whenever I was doing work or watching anything on my laptop pop up screens would continually appear in front of the tab I was using, my work would be distracted I had to continuously close the tabs one at a time but they just kept…
You get out of life what you are willing to tolerate. If you make the choice not to tolerate whatever it is that’s been bothering you, your life will begin to change.
Once you do that, you’ll take charge of your own life, which means you’ll take responsibility and begin acting in a way that will push you toward that goal.
A floater can swim too if necessary. She doe not drown anyway. Flowing with the tide is a better analogy for steady progress that comes with a flexibility to tap into evolving opportunities than the rolling stone that gathers no moss.
Open mindedness is conducive to the technological age where changes happen exponentially…
Hi, I’ve been thinking about this, and the investment analogy.. not as analogy, but as a venue for treating each with basic human dignity
Compound interest is interesting enough, though not especially useful these days
My attention has been on the foundation of our shared global economic system…
Very smart to focus this down on 15 mins. We also need to reflect on the triggers that prevent us from working on ourselves. We all know that we should. But until we identify the roadblocks, the internal ones, the thoughts and feelings that stop us, we don’t do what we should.
So much of life is about what you feel rather than what you think. Being strongly connected to your emotional life is vital to…
I just scheduled in my personal development time for the upcoming week! Thanks for the timely piece, Thomas!
Mike turned to me and said, “He’s joining my team, I like him, because he is lazy, lazy people find easier ways to do things.”
On another occasion, a friend of mine remarked “Can you believe we put people in space before we thought to put…
Self discipline is what we ought to learn how to exercise. Most are so quick to accept their failures & dismiss the idea of becoming a better version of themselves as we believe we aren’t equipped with the skills to do so and progress as an individual. Time and time again we continuously back slide and because it’s happened so many times we give up…
Why I’m writing 500 words a day
Recently, I’ve decided to start writing 500 words a day. Normally, I write in my journal because I just like the feel of pen and paper in my hands and I don’t want to resort to an electronic means of writing down thought — not that there’s anything wrong with that. But guess what ? I am…
Last fall I woke up in a daze, surrounded by trees I’d never seen.
No one can give us an emotion to feel, but we can choose one for ourselves. Try only stating out loud the things you…
Looking at my bookshelves, I can see the contours of a sort of time capsule. The kinds of books I’ve read up through…
You aren’t a slouch. You are highly invested in yourself and your career. However, for the life of you, you can’t understand how you keep going in circles. You have tried everything. You’ve read every book and signed up for every professional…
We are halfway done with September! Time has gone quick! I can remember when we were just starting off the month with Labor Day. Now we are midway there and approaching October. Time sure does fly. One thing that doesn’t fly (at least here at the PositivityChange Post!)…
