Humanity’s cardinal sin #1

How do you judge your Television and social media consumption?

 

 

Humanity’s cardinal sin #1…

We judge ourselves on our intentions.

Others judge us on our behaviors.

 

What if i judged myself like everyone else judges me?

And before you go pointing fingers, “Oh yeah, Jeff should take his own advice.”, evaluate yourself with the same critical eye as you do me.

If that self-evaluation doesn’t humble you, repeat the process until it does.

It’s a human condition so none of us should feel guilty in the discovery.

Guilt should be owned only if we do nothing with the revelation.

Candid, tough questions

Tough questions should be handled with candor when you are investing in self-reflection.

Think about this as you prepare to enter the new year (now only five days away).

Face the tough questions now and your year will get easier. Avoid the hard questions now and your year will get a lot harder.

Who creates unnecessary dissatisfaction and desire?

Mid Life Celebration author jeff noel
i address the reality of being medicated, distracted, and entertained.

Who creates unnecessary dissatisfaction and desire?

Before you answer, consider three words…

1. Unnecessary.

Unneeded, useless, unimportant.

2. Dissatisfaction.

Discontent, unhappiness, anger.

3. Desire.

Yearning, longing, craving.

On April Fool’s Day 2009, jeff noel began writing five daily, differently-themed blogs (on five different sites). It was to be a 100-day self-imposed “writer’s bootcamp”, in preparation for writing his first book. He hasn’t missed a single day since.

 

When was the last time we spent a few minutes visualizing this?

When was the last time we spent a few minutes visualizing our dreams?

The Voice’s 2015 winner was crowned two nights ago. Last night i watched the recorded Final competition. i (gratefully) still don’t know who won. i would bet it’s Jordan Smith.

But after watching Emily’s recorded performances last night, there is the possibility that the impossible could happen. Pretty sure that’s what she and her Family is dreaming of.

What crazy, impossible dreams do i have that are still worth pursuing, even though they are “impossible”?
