There is NO cure for clinical depression!! I loved your enthusiastic post as always and great advice for someone with very mild depression or unhappy with themselves and wanting to change as you are.
You’ve obviously not been CLINICALLY depressed before. I have and there is no 12 step program for that! It IS a chemical…
This was derived from a true story, and it changed my life.
My Grandma always told me, “It’s not what you know, it’s who you know.”
Success is often achieved through limiting your mistakes instead of adding positive habits!
I have a complicated relationship with alcohol as many of us do.
I didn’t start drinking until freshman year of college. Much later than much of America and many of my peers.
About a month ago, I decided to reopen my Instagram account after a long six-month dry-spell. Photos had been piling up, and I just had to share them with the world. I gasped at the new stories feature (how innovative!) and the ability to now upload sets of photos. Now you…
Yesterday was not my day.
And the next time you run across claims that contradict your worldview, your instinct will say either to avoid reading it or immediately write an angry comment. Stop in this case too! And think — how can I be sure these claims are wrong? Could they actually be right? Could they be partially right? Is it important to sort out which side of the debate…
Have you ever asked yourself, ‘Who am I?’ If for example, your name is Paul then who are you? Are you and your name not separate? If you are…
Rebecca was an intern on my team three summers ago. Four weeks into the summer she got to present her project to our entire office. It went rather well. Afterwards a number of people came up to talk to her:

Hey Matt, you do not know me but I am sure by the end of this you will…June 11th 2012 was the day you died, the day that everything became too much for you to handle, the day you took your life. It was a bit windy that day, something was off because you dreaded being awake more than…

When you walk around campus on the average school day here at Brigham Young University, you are sure to find bunches of smiling students who are happy to be at the University they dreamed of attending since they were kids. People are smiling, holding doors for each other, and engaging in…
When I thought of penning down my views on negative emotions and how it brings health, I was very skeptical as to how would everyone take it? Especially in the era of “smile and the world will smile back at you” we live in. Everywhere we look, there are messages…

Tell me it really sucks that this is happening to me, and ask me how I’m doing.
The Ugly tomcat
I still remember the first time I saw him. He was sprawled on the bonnet of my parked car, enjoying his siesta. As I approached the car door, he raised his head and looked straight into my eyes. He was the ugliest stray tomcat I’d ever seen. His head appeared a bit overgrown, and his whiskers were so long…
To those who don’t know, Groundhog Day is a great movie which beautifully and comically tells the story of a person who is reliving the same day again and again. Fatefully, most of us are no different. But don’t worry. This article is not to gossip how time…
Thank you Mark! And yes, I 100% can relate. Thank you for sharing.

People without a Facebook account are like modern day lepers. At best looked at skeptically, at worst actively shunned, they are the new crazy aunt/uncle who shows up only on family holidays smelling vaguely of paint thinner.
Quoting Socrates/Plato in a gym article is the definition of badass. I also love how tangible your improvements are in the gym. It’s easier to measure progress in the gym than in other areas of life – and I think that in itself is valuable. You can count how many more reps you do/how much more weight you’re lifting/how far you’re running. But you…

There are two people in my life who seem to always fight when they interact. I happen to be a mediator in this daily banter. One person hides their vulnerability using anger, while the other says they are very sensitive and starts crying upon the expression of anger.

‘Disharmony’
Mr.KrackJack?
Yes.
Disharmony in relationships is growing?
Yes. Even the sweetest once have become sour.
Lack of sincerity or fidelity?
I think we have “failure” and “success” upside down. No, really. I’d go as far as saying that what we think of success is a form failure and what we associate with failure is actually a measure of success. This, of course, sounds…
Very interesting post. Good to hear the prison experiment was cut short, sounded horrendous and possibly in humane? Obviously people have to behave differently in different situations, you have to dress, act and talk differently at work than sitting in your pyjamas shouting at the TV at home.

Chris and I were at the bookstore nearest our gate at the Salt Lake City airport. Let’s Explore Diabetes with Owls by David Sedaris was in my hands. If the plane was going to go down, I wanted to be amused as we fell from the sky.

This is mental energy and the astral body it creates forms our false ego. In normal waking awareness and in our dreams this energy creates the “I” awareness of individual consciousness. To create the true ego it must be integrated with the energies of the heart.

Last week someone asked me if I believe things happen for a reason. I have given it due consideration And have concluded that No, I believe things happen randomly and devoid of significant meaning. It is up to each individual to ascribe meaning to the events in a post dated manner.
