Life is full of unexpected surprises. Some of them are not as desired as others. In a growth mindset, we adapt. In a fixed mindset, we find a scapegoat. What’s your mindset? It can change, so take a snapshot of it today, and check back to see where it is in three months. Your mission, […]
#RPCL Log Date May 2, 2017: #BeingHuman #Goodwill
Do you surround yourself with friends who spread goodwill? Do you spread it? Sometimes I get criticized for my loyalty. But I am also someone who follows my instinct.

I was telling a friend the other day it’s better not to let anger or misunderstood silence create a rift. Life is too short. And what if the silent treatment had an abrupt ending due to an accident with no closure? The last thing we want to think about is losing a loved one. But the […]
#RPCL Log Date April 29, 2017: #BeingHuman #Forgive
You’ve probably told yourself it’s okay to disagree with friends and loved ones. But it ain’t easy. Sometimes we just want to be right, so we decide to get mad and stay mad.

We all like doing things our way, especially if we’re used to doing it a certain way. However it’s also human nature to desire change and evolve. So why not embrace a new way of doing things? As difficult as it can be to meet in the middle, sometimes it’s the only way. Your mission, if […]

Your mission, if you choose to accept it: Don’t invest in your own power if it’s to perpetuate your individual success. Times are changing. You can, too. Embrace people, community and helping others. Be kind. Be safe. Be appropriate. Now go!
#RPCL Log Date April 23, 2017: #BeingHuman #MoveOn
Some days I feel bad about myself. The kind of bad where I want to take it out on my partner because he didn’t do something. When in reality, I know I am being unfair or unrealistic. I do want a new basement. I did want a new kitchen before I turned a certain age, […]
