Dare to Dream Again

Image source: http://i.ytimg.com/vi/C-RbDcNNNg4/maxresdefault.jpg

When is the last time you just sat down and wrote out a list of things you wanted to do? Dare to dream a little again. Where do you want to travel? Where would you stay? Make your dreams something grand. People talk about being passionate about their jobs or career, but not about activities not related to work.

Passion on Career or Activities?

It is fine that you are passionate about your career, but life is more than just your career. I think you would agree having grand experiences or adventures is something to be more passionate about than a career. Maybe you want to go to some foreign country and help people build a home or a water well to supply the village.

Your career can be a way to fund these experiences. Everyones career is that of a doctor who saves lives. Most people have regular careers and want to do something unique away from work.

I like the book by Tim Ferriss The Four Hour Workweek. Tim Ferriss explains how to have mini-retirements throughout your life. Do not wait until retirement to finally do the things you want to do is the message. Most of the items on my dream list are very doable with modest money. Another message in the Four Hour Workweek is not own grand things like a sports car or a McMansion, but to experience life.

Own a Second Home?

Use the money you would have spent on things and experience life and live like a millionaire. Here are a couple ideas. You can rent a million dollar home in St. Thomas for about $5,000 to $7,000 a month. For the same amount you can rent a beautiful log cabin home in Montana for a month. So for about less than 1% of the value of the house you can spend a month in luxury. You do not have to OWN a second home, but RENT a second every single year.

Why save all your money to buy the second home when your retire in some location when you can rent the same home today?

After all when you retire are you really going to live all year in your second home? No. Most people only spend a couple weeks out the year in the second home. The rest of the year the home sits empty or maybe you risk renting the home.

Seems to me that renting a second home now instead of waiting to own a second home makes better sense.

Time to Make a List

Now it is your turn to sit down and write out a list of your goals and dreams. Remember this a list of things you want to DO, not things you want to OWN or BUY. For most people a list of things to do will have more passion than buying something. How about taking the whole family on a cruise to the Caribbean? How about taking your spouse on a trip to Hawaii or France?

Make a dream list of experiences. For me personally for the first 20 to 30 items were easy, but then became difficult. You can always add items to the dreams or goals list after you make your initial list. Writing a goals list or dreams list will get your creative juices flowing and more ideas will come into your mind all the time.

Action Step: For 20 to 30 minutes make a dreams list of things you want to do. Do not cross any item off or think something is impossible just make out the list. Then pick one item to focus on for next week to see how you can accomplish that one goal.

Creating Your Own Support System

Image source: https://help.hotspotsystem.com/hotsyswpress/wp-content/uploads/2014/05/fbreview_step1-1024x686.png

I recently was asked by another mother at home, "What do you find most difficult about being an at-home mother?"

I replied, "No sick leave, days off, or vacation time. Hey, let's form a union!"

We both laughed at the idea of a mothers' union, but we realized we already had the next best thing: our mothers at home support group.

A little over a year has passed since I mentioned at a La Leche League meeting that I wanted to start a support group for mothers at home, and ten women-tots in tow arrived at my door, hungry for adult conversation. Within a year, word of mouth and the media had spread the news, and our group unexpectedly blossomed into a nonprofit organization for mothers who have chosen to stay at home.

We now have four mothers' groups and dozens of other supportive services. We've learned so much from our experiences that others interested in networking with fellow moms at home might benefit from the ideas and experiences that helped us get started.

Need for Support

Isolation and loneliness are such universal feelings among at-home moms that Arlene Cardozo says in her book, Sequencing (New York: Atheneum, 1986) that the difficulties of adjusting to being at home are the following: loss of identity, loss of a system of rewards and expectations, and loss of a community of co-workers. All except the last usually are resolved during the first year of transition from career to home. Some women, she says, deal with these losses within themselves or have supportive extended family. Others seek out other women in similar circumstances for friendship, stimulating conversation, and networking.

Many women look to their husbands for their primary sources of support. However, no one person could ever meet all the needs another person has for support and understanding, nor would it be fair to expect this. Many mothers who choose to stay at home are coming from careers where they have learned the value of on-the-job training and expertise, work-related training, prioritizing and delegating projects, negotiating workloads, and stress and time management. These women usually had established support systems by networking with other professionals who understand the difficulties and joys of their professions. As women move their careers to the home front, they are learning to transfer skills to their new profession: Mothering.

Finding Other Moms at Home

Today's families are so mobile that they often are distant from their relatives. Their frequent moves also make it more difficult to establish close or lasting friendships.

This lack of close friends can cause the mother at home to feel even more lonely and isolated. Maybe that's why today's at-home mom is making more efforts to create a circle of friends for herself. When she moves, she often places high on her list of priorities finding a neighborhood where there will be other mothers home during the days. Actually accomplishing this, though, may be quite a feat. Some women visit the prospective neighborhoods and parks during the day; they ask about other mothers at home at community centers, public schools, libraries, and nursery schools.

Some churches and organizations like the YWCA, Welcome Wagon, and La Leche League help parents network with one another. Many are supportive of mothers who have chosen to stay at home, and some even have groups especially for full-time mothers. These groups may provide meeting places where mothers can talk and children can play. Some may even provide services such as workshops and family programs. Many times, mothers will meet each other while participating in these activities and will decide to get together outside class.

Crawling Out of the Cracks Choosing to be Powerful

Inspiration for the Day

Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure. It is our light, not our darkness that most frightens us. We ask ourselves, Who am I to be brilliant, gorgeous, talented, fabulous? Actually, who are you not to be? You are a child of God. Your playing small does not serve the world. There is nothing enlightened about shrinking so that other people wont feel insecure around you. We are all meant to shine, as children do. We were born to make manifest the glory of God that is within us. Its not just in some of us; its in everyone. And as we let our own light shine, we unconsciously give other people permission to do the same. As we are liberated from our own fear, our presence automatically liberates others.

-Marianne Williamson

_____

Many people are living beneath the level that the creator has purposed for them to live. Not having the mate of their dreams, not living where they want to, not having the careers they desire, never reaching in every dimension of life that which they are capable of. Why? The answer is simple they dont expect to. They do not believe that they can or if they somehow do it will only be temporary.

These people have a rodent mentality, instead of enjoying the mansion that God has prepared for them, they spend most of their existence in the cracks of the walls, believing that somehow they have been called to live in such misery. Their poor self-esteem never allows them to, for any extended period of time experience the light of Gods glorious abundant, beautiful, limitless life.

Things That Determine Self Esteem:
Parental Relationships

The main contributing factor in determining the sense of self esteem that an individual possesses is their relationship with their parents (especially their father) and their affirmation of them as individuals with the right to be. It has been shown that individuals who have a good relationship with their parents tend not only to be more confident but also less likely to be promiscuous or addictive and more likely to be successful in their chosen path.

Peer Pressure

Another contributing factor in influencing ones self esteem is the opinion of our peers whether expressed verbally or non-verbally. Peer pressure is a strong factor in not only determining peoples behavior (their dress or mode of conduct), but also in determining their sense of self. Someone who is continuously ridiculed and rejected by their peers may find it very difficult to maintain a proper self esteem.

The Media

The media is now also a very powerful tool in the transformation of the behavior of civil society. Marketers know that the proper use of the media can transform peoples thought patterns: how they see the world, how they use their leisure time and finances, the goals and aspirations they set for themselves, their mode of dress, their religious and political beliefs but most importantly how they see themselves. The models that are used in both the print and electronic media and how we match up to them can influence our belief about whether we are OK or not.

The Effects Of Poor Self Esteem
Poor Self Esteem Can Affect Us In Many Ways

First it hinders us from receiving all the wonderful things that are in store for us. Our belief system determines what we will receive from God. For us to receive of the limitless, abundant riches of the creator, we must not only believe that he can but more importantly that he will give them to us. If we do not believe that God really is capable of loving us, then we will not truly expect him to give good gifts to us and so we will not receive them.

Poor self esteem will make it impossible for the individual to believe that they will be rewarded. It is hard to believe a God they cannot see will feel better about them than the persons around them who they see and hear. It is therefore almost impossible to have the confident assurance that something they want is going to happen. and so they block Gods best from entering into their lives in its fullness.

Secondly when good things come, it is almost impossible to enjoy them because they do not believe that they deserve them and their faith in the negative will ultimately bring about the results they truly expect. Faith and fear both work on the same principle what you truly expect you will have. Therefore if you do not expect the blessings to last because of some inadequacy or guilt you may possess, then it evaporates just as you expect. Ever heard someone say, I knew it was too good to last, things like that just dont happen to me for long. What they dont understand is that the reason those same things happen for other people and they last, is because those people have a confident assurance that it will.

To Your Success and Prosperity,
Mariano

Practice Change

Visualize yourself as being far greater than you have ever imagined. Let your light shine from within. Imagine yourself as being gorgeous, brilliant, talented, powerful and fabulous. You will become what you ultimately and consciously believe to be true.

Communication in Marriage How to Communicate With Your Spouse

Communication in Marriage: How to Communicate With Your Spouse

Communication is a process of sending a message through a medium to the receiver. It basically means to pass on or share or exchange views, information, ideas, knowledge, feelings and emotions.
Lack of communication is the cause of most marital problems. There could be a minor or a major information distortion. Lack of communication is the mother of frustrations in a marriage.

Types of Communication
There are two major types of communication:
a. Verbal: This could be in form of discussion, argument, whisper, murmur, rebuke, protest, command, encourage, praise, appeal, gossip, instruct, correct, appreciate, etc.

b. Nonverbal: This could be signs or signals. This could be in form of nose twitching, hissing, door slamming, bunching of legs, clapping, touching, winking of eyes, etc.

Kinds of Communication
1. Zero Communication: This is when there is no communication at all between the couples. When couples are no more in talking term. This show a sign of a family that is about to fall. Lack of communication in the home is a threat to the peaceful existence of the family.

2. Plastic Communication: This is when communication has no root, not sincere, not direct. This shows a sign of a poisoned relationship. Guard your marriage against such communication which does not have its root in total sincerity and faithfulness.

3. Negative Communication: This involves dangerous communication. It involves negative communication like cursing, murmuring, abusing or insulting, protesting, etc.

4. Bulk Communication: This is handling a lot of issues at the same time, thereby confusing the receiver. Thereby affecting the rate of understanding between couples.

5. Half Communication: This is making incomplete statements which could be refer to as half truths.

6. Object Communication: Directing one's comment to object instead of addressing the subject. For instance, the husband may look at a badly prepared soup and say "You this peppery soup how I wish I had somebody with good sense that can prepare you better, I would have enjoyed you". By saying this he is passing a message across to the wife that the soup is bad. Though in a wrong way.

7. Subject Communication: This is the situation when a person addresses the subject instead of the object of discussion. The husband of a woman that cooked a bad food may say, "Woman, you have been careless in everything, everything you do in this house is bad" instead of telling the wife how badly the food was prepared, may be peppery, or salty, he is busy castigating the woman. It could not be true, that the woman has never done anything right in that house.

8. Sandwich Communication: This is the level of communication that combines both negative and positive to produce a positive result. It is like commendation, correction and condemnation. For example, "Darling, thank you for this wonderful food. You can just try to reduce the pepper tomorrow; all the same it is a wonderful meal. I always say you are the best cook". This kind of woman will take to the correction of her husband without any grudges because of the commendation.

9. Extra Mile Communication: This is when a partner goes beyond commendation to sing the praise of his partner calling him beautiful names and telling him how handsome he is. These kinds of communication are missing in our home today that is why we encounter diverse problems in marriages today. Check your own marriage, check the level of communication in your home and change for good. Allow God to use your mouth for the betterment of your home.

What do you think about partners living together before marriage? Are you up for it or against it? Do you think it's OK to live in together? Cohabitation by definition is coined as the act of living together by a couple under one roof. They aren't married. They are just two individuals dwelling together with a private relationship. It is voluntarily done.

In the past decades, it has been considered improper to cohabitate with someone if they're not married. Up until now, there are a lot of people against it. However, some individuals have considered now is a world of modernization. Traditions and conventional rules have been broken and the freedom of choice is given. You can choose to cohabitate if you want to. But do expect that some people would raise their eyebrows and make an issue out of it. So why are people against the idea of living in together? Here are some issues that relates to cohabitation.

Issue # 1 Couples end up getting a divorce

It is a fact that couples have a higher risk of divorcing compared to the married couples who have not live together beforehand. People say that living together would be one of the greatest ways to get to know the true personality of a person. You get to know their daily habits, rituals as well as their worst moments. Surely, you would be happy to know his personality but you end up being less happy. That is a fact.

Here's the concept of marriage. Marriage is a long term commitment. It doesn't require you to take it for a test drive and check if your partner is ok. That is why you begin as a boyfriend or girlfriend to each other. It's the period where you discover things about your partner. You say yes to marriage when you know you've accepted him totally even if he snores loudly at night.

What if your spouse already left you? Here's how to get them back.

Issue # 2 Defeats the purpose of marriage

Marriage is a serious commitment. It shouldn't be taken nonchalantly. Married couples have a deeper bond and commitment towards each other. Also, they are healthier holistically. Studies have shown that women who are married are less likely to have depression. The Catholic Church as well as the Islam oppose to it. The act of living together before marriage is unacceptable. It has defied the sacredness and holiness of the matrimony. Also, it has been noted that one gets crippled right away if their partner leaves them. After all, they don't have to get a divorce to break free.

Issue # 3 Children can get affected

If you live out of marriage, they don't feel secure. You will also be concerned because they may have some behavioral problems. When they know that both of you didn't have a wedding, they would question about fidelity when they have a sound mind.

While choosing industrial furniture keep in mind that the industrial era used materials that were bulky and heavy such as solid wood and steel. These pieces were made to last for years and took alot of wear and tear. You can still find some of these peices today. Their worn, weathered look gives them character and adds a bit of drama to any space. They may be covered in leather, heavy denim, linen, cotton ticking or wool. Besides wood and steel you may find pieces made of galvanized metal and iron with muted industrial paint and powder-coated finishes.
Many industrial furniture designs today have been greatly influenced by the industrial workplaces of yesterday. Items once produced for factories, hospitals, schools, and commercial units are now being reproduced for our living rooms, dining rooms, kitchens, and even our bedrooms. They also work great in office's and can add a lot of style to commercial settings. Many bars, restaurants, and even rental venues are using an industrial style to draw customers into a bygone era.

The oversize pieces work well in large open settings. You can easily imagine over-sized sofas and chairs in a hotel lobby, but they can just as easily be used in a very large living room. Choosing pieces that work well in your environment is really a matter of taste. Picking items that fit nicely into your home or business setting may take a bit of browsing, but finding items that make you feel good, and that look good in your space, is really what it's all about.

In today's market place you can find a plethora of reproduced chairs, desks, tables, storage units, lighting, and accessories inspired by the industrial era, but if you truly want an industrial look, try searching for original items that can be found in salvage yards, flea markets and junk shops, and re-purpose them, or use them as is to add a bit of character and drama to a space. Many of today's manufacturers are designing pieces that really bring back the industrial era and while some of these items are pricey, they are great for adding historical character in today's spaces.
