Have You Told Them Lately That You Appreciate Them? -...

Tiny Bites of Wagaliciousness ·

2024/02/01

Is there someone in your life that you admire, or who inspires you? You may not love everything about them, or admire every single thing, and yet you still look at who they are or what they’ve accomplished and think, “maybe I could do that too.” Have you ever told them that they inspire you? For instance, I have had Siberian Huskies for decades, and early on I met a woman who had them even longer. Her dogs had many titles, including obedience titles. Many people think that Siberians are

Appreciating the Weed That You Are - Wellbeing Wisdom...

2024/01/31

Let’s pretend you’re a dandelion. You sprouted from seed as a tiny little plant, maybe in the middle of that park down the street. You probably went completely unnoticed until the day your first bud started to open. Then some people were charmed by you, some alarmed by you, and most people didn’t give you a second thought. Meanwhile, you were doing what you knew to do – growing, changing, and blooming. As your first yellow flower opened wide, more buds emerged and your leaves got bigger. So

The Words You Use Matter...a Lot! - Wellbeing Wisdom...

2024/01/30

Do you know someone who uses very dramatic language? For instance: They don’t have a headache, they are in agony because their head is about to explode. How about this: a person who got snippy with them is described as throwing a screaming fit right there in front of the entire office. They don’t have difficult conversations, they have confrontations. The weather isn’t hot, it’s sweltering and they’re going to suffer heat stroke if they don’t get into the air conditioning. They can take

Scarlett O'Hara, Paul Brandt, and You - Wellbeing...

2024/01/29

Are you feeling stuck? Many of us end up in a school or job or life we chose and realize that it’s not exactly what we wanted. When you’re feeling stuck, it’s tough to see the possibilities because you’re focused on limitations. Shift your focus. That can be tough, though not impossible. When you find yourself ruminating on or spiraling around whatever the problem is, try to channel your inner Scarlett O’Hara with words like, “I’ll think about that tomorrow.” Then find something positive or

Have you ever seen a beautifully manicured green lawn? It looked so perfect, didn’t it? As you stood back and gazed at it, your eyes probably saw the lovely crisp edges where lawn met driveway and sidewalk, the lovely even greenness of the grass, and the perfectly matched length of grass, blade after blade exactly the same height – nothing sticking up and no places where the ground showed through because it was cut too closely there. Yep, perfect, right? Wrong. You were looking at it from a

Opinions are Like...Well, You Know! - Wellbeing...

Tiny Bites of Wagaliciousness ·

2024/01/27

Don’t you just love pithy truths? You know, the kind of little sentences that get bandied about the internet, spreading little puffs of inspiration in their wake? Attribution is important – I don’t want to steal anyone’s truth, yet sometimes finding the origin is beyond even Google. No attribution on this one – it’s too good not to share, though. “Their opinions don’t pay your bills.” Because of social conditioning as well as evolutionary success, we are wired to care about the opinions of

Have you ever thought about how the world was on the day you were born? You weren’t on the planet, and then suddenly you were. If you were a first-born child, your parents weren’t parents and then suddenly they were. What songs were playing on the radio? What was the most popular car? What new technology was born that year, who was the President, and where was the trendy vacation spot? Seriously, pop open your favorite search engine, find out what the world was like on your original

Reasoning With the Green-Eyed Monster - Wellbeing...

Tiny Bites of Wagaliciousness ·

2024/01/25

You don’t have to tell me – just be honest with yourself. Are you ever just the littlest bit envious or jealous of someone? You might like them, or even love them, and yet now and then you feel a flash of a green eyed monster inside yourself. Envy and jealousy are cousins, not twins – envy is softer and lacks the anger/revenge feelings that often are present with jealousy. With envy we long for what the other has that we don’t, while with jealousy we want to deprive the other person of what

Do You Own Your Brain? - Wellbeing Wisdom Tiny Bites...

Tiny Bites of Wagaliciousness ·

2024/01/24

Do you believe that you can be in charge of your thoughts? Think about it – how many times a day do you let thoughts run rough-shod through your head, vs. how many times you notice a thought that doesn’t feel good and stop thinking it? I think part of the beauty of being older is to realize that I own my brain – it doesn’t own me. That’s true of you, too. If you can think of your brain as your body’s operating system, not as the seat of who you are, it makes it easier to play a game with

How High Expectations Help You Lead Difficult People...

2024/01/23

Do you know the phrase, “Take the high road”? Going back to the 1600’s, the phrase has been used to indicate choosing a moral way to react or behave, and the earliest references were about the high road leading to heaven and the low road leading to...well, you know... Now, think about that person in your life who seems to never pick the high road – they live to stir the pudding, they pit one person against another and sit back and enjoy the fireworks, they take credit for the

Which Beliefs are Holding You Back? - Wellbeing...

2024/01/22

Do you know anyone who is always waiting for things to be a certain way before…whatever? They can’t sign up for a dating app until they’ve lost 20 pounds, and they can’t ask for a raise until they’ve worked there for two years, and they can’t get a new car until they drive this one for at least four more years, even though they hate that car with a passion!! Maybe you might be just a little bit like that too? It’s OK – most of us are. Until I got engaged, I never wore a ring on my left

How to Turn Negative People Around - Wellbeing Wisdom...

Tiny Bites of Wagaliciousness ·

2024/01/21

Think about the people you work with, and write a list of names of those you interact with on a daily basis. Next to each name, write the words you think of when you think of them – words like brainy, quiet, worrier, bossy – whatever is the predominant personality trait you associate with each person. Humans assemble a kind of shorthand about the people in our lives, and then we adapt our interactions based on how we see that person. Look at your list and focus on the person or people you

How to Magically Reach the Stars - Wellbeing Wisdom...

2024/01/20

Before Ryan Seacrest became the host for the longest-running music countdown show, American Top 40, Casey Kasem hosted it. He signed off every week with the same phrase: “Keep your feet on the ground and keep reaching for the stars.” Do you remember the younger version of yourself – that person who didn’t have a mortgage, a career, and maybe a marriage and children? That younger version of most of us believed in a little bit of magic in our lives, so we did reach for the stars every now and

Why People Hate Happiness - Wellbeing Wisdom Tiny...

2024/01/19

Are you a little tired of all the talk about happiness? It’s OK – you won’t hurt my feelings. A lot of contrarian articles have been published about the pitfalls of putting a happy face sticker on everything, as if that’s what the goal is. The goal isn’t to pretend things are great when they’re not – the goal is to make things better by teaching your brain to focus and process differently. I worked at a very successful radio station, we got a new program director who made a lot of changes,

Dealing with the Apology That Never Comes - Wellbeing...

2024/01/18

Does someone owe you an apology? Yeah, me, too. Think we’ll ever get them? Mmmm…maybe, and maybe not. I screwed up at the salon and created chaos in my hairdresser’s schedule. I didn’t mean to, and didn’t know I’d done it until much later. When I went back in the next time, I made it a point to let her know that I felt awful for creating chaos in her day, apologizing more than once. Some things are harder to apologize about, so if you’re waiting for an apology over something major, consider

How to Beat the Tyranny of Looming Deadlines -...

2024/01/17

Quick – do you have a deadline looming? Something you are in charge of doing, producing, leading, or creating? How does it feel to you? Looming deadlines don’t usually feel very good, and thinking about all the steps that still need to be taken in order to meet that deadline can be very stressful. That nagging little voice in your head can start in with the “you’ll never make it” and “it’s impossible” and “what makes you think you could ever do something like this” kind of talk. Think back

The Truth About Absolute Truths - Wellbeing Wisdom...

2024/01/16

Are there things you believe are absolutely, positively true? Most people have at least a handful of things they believe non-negotiably. Maybe their parents taught them things they absolutely, positively believed, and maybe schools and clubs and religious institutions deepened those beliefs for them. Some people generalize their beliefs, assuming that since some things they believe are true, then everything they believe is just as true. Let me share something I believe is true – even truths

Are You Sure You Feel Comfy in Your Own Skin? -...

2024/01/15

Growing up, did you hear things like, “Settle down – you’re too rowdy” or “you don’t have to talk all the time” or “wow, you really let your weird flag fly, don’t you?” Every person is different, and yet the pressure to conform to what others think is normal is immense! No matter what you call it – social norms, majority influence, group pressure – fitting in seems to be expected of us, right from the beginning. From being teased about how you’re dressed to being expected to demonstrate

How You Should Feel About Shoulding on Yourself -...

Tiny Bites of Wagaliciousness ·

2024/01/14

How many times in a day do you should on yourself? You know, that little voice inside your head pipes up and says things like, “I should have been kinder” or “I should have known that would happen” or even “I shouldn’t be so gullible!” When you should on yourself, you might as well wag a finger in your face, because you’re scolding, shaming, and bullying yourself. When you should on yourself, you’re expecting the past-tense version of you to have been a fortune teller, magically foreseeing

Your Real Value, Purpose, and Destiny - Wellbeing...

Tiny Bites of Wagaliciousness ·

2024/01/13

Have you been questioning your value to this world? Maybe wondering what your purpose in this life is, or even your destiny? It’s human to wonder, and maybe even worry, if you’re doing enough for others, or for the environment, or for whatever it is you care deeply about. When you go beyond just thinking about these things to worrying over them, then you’re doing yourself a disservice. You’re putting yourself into stress mode over things you care about that may or may not be in your power
