Creative and Inspirational People
Creative people have a deep respect for the very essence of everything around them. It is as if they have a thirst for all things new and exciting. Who wouldn't want to be around a creative and inspirational person? They are uplifting, kind, and filled with a wonder for life. They can light up a room by just walking in with a smile on their face. They are usually highly intelligent in their own right and don't flaunt it unless challenged in a negative way. They will bring you strawberries in winter, and sprinkle glitter on your papers just to make you smile. They draw you out of your head and make you think…
What battles should we fight
Dedicated to my class who asked the question"what battles should we fight, and can we bring duck tape?" We have all been there. That place and time when the information we are hearing is just too good. Emphasis on "too good". Red hot sizzling information that can make or break a situation, a person's reputation, or put honestly - damage our own social integrity. By your own social integrity that refers to you or someone in your circle that has no filter on what they think, and tend to blurt out every little tiny detail that they know for the whole world to hear. As innocent as the act might seem to some, in fact it…
The Interview “Looks like a nice person, has a Twitter page”
The Interview “Looks like a nice person, has a Twitter page” For many who have been working professionals for most of their lives, it is often anticipated with some anxiety that those interviewing them ‘may not know how to interview them’. When you go into an interview and in two quick responses you have pretty much summed up the entire list of questions the interviewer had prepared, you quickly are able to gauge the aptitude of that business or organization. While those giving the interview have thought well and hard on their lists – you still manage to blow that list out of the water. What’s left for the interviewer?…
Put Your Busy Bully On Notice
Nearly every office has one, that person who for some reason keeps things stirred up. Whether it is a need for power or control, who knows? What they manage to do is have others begin to doubt their own skills and abilities. I like to think of these individuals as passive aggressive bullies, or my own naming convention of “The Busy Bully”. They don’t come right out and say something to another person in the office; rather they are busy gossiping or hinting around to others that “they know a secret”. They are also constantly second-guessing other co-workers true intentions and often believe others are talking about them behind their…
When Happiness Catches Your Eye
Taking life one beautiful step at a time, and allowing happiness to catch your eye – what a great way to live. We have to pull away from those moments of doubt and confusion and focus our thoughts on our true purpose. We have to allow ourselves to be generous, kind, and forgiving. When we really search out those things that give us joy we find a new meaning, a new purpose – a reason to go on. When happiness catches your eye, linger on the moment without jumping to the next moment. Spend time relaxing and drinking in the calm. Live in the moment. Live in the moment We…
