Your commitment to yourself is the most important commitment you will make in your life. When you truly commit to yourself, you become committed to everything that is truly important to you, no matter what. I am committed to healing my heart, growing more love within me, and becoming the best version of myself. When you do so, you begin to notice what is truly worth your time and energy. Your focus and attention are directed only toward what gives meaning and value to your life. Your sense of self-worth increases. ~ @feminiel

I hate this. All the resolutions I make. They cause an extreme sense of strain; as if I had a rubber band stretched across the inside of my chest cavity.

TopSkills Thursday: Part 4

This week, in the executive dysfunction series, we’ll look more closely at an important area, managing finances. As always, these are ideas, and they may not work for you. Hopefully, they’ll spark some thoughts of your own. Whichever is the case, I hope you’ll at least be inspired to continue your search for solutions. Financial management is a hard topic to write about. Lest anyone think I…

commitments

today i became the backup host for my home group of narcotics anonymous and i'm very proud of myself. they gave me my own set of keys and everything. i like feeling like i matter and belong somewhere

106 days of sobriety from all substances -- prescribed, legal, and otherwise.

i used to dull my autistic sensory issues..and to climb the corporate ladder. i was highly successful for many years, but now i'm dealing with burnout and figuring out who i am again.

this is where i'm supposed to be.

and that's beautiful, in its own way.

This is how I celebrated the Ides of March last year. I don't know how to commit to the bit any more this year, but I'll take suggestions.

The problem with “senseless violence” narrative around the UnitedHealthcare CEO is that it ignores the inherent violence of the insurance industry. Denying someone lifesaving care is violence. Subjecting someone to drawn out periods of pain before treatment is violent. The industry is made up of millions of acts of violence everyday, with the CEO at the helm guiding it all. This is not unprovoked and it’s not an overreaction; it is just harder to ignore

Trying to talk to someone who refuses to take responsibility for their mistakes feels like talking to a wall standing in front of you. It’s as if everything you’re saying isn’t reaching them, and the person in front of you neither hears, sees, nor relates to you—just like a wall. They’re defensive, blocking any open path for further communication.

What’s even worse is when they’re not only on the defensive but also attack you by projecting their issues onto you or blaming you for things you didn’t do. It really angers me, as I feel like there’s no way to resolve problems like this when all I really want is to find peace in the situation.

To me, this is when I see how having done the inner work and being committed to becoming a better version of myself is rewarding. It makes you more accepting and open to your mistakes and weaknesses. Over time, seeing and addressing your mistakes becomes more comfortable to delve into. It gives you a sense of power over your ability to grow and develop.

However, when the other party can't meet you at this level of maturity, let them go. Cut the cords and set a standard to keep in your circle only those who are willing and able to work through challenges and resolve conflicts in alignment with the growth you seek for yourself. ~ @feminiel

Self-Care Saturday: Control One Thing

Ever feel swamped with the demands of work, family, friends, and the very act of existence? I think everyone does, at some point. Caring for elderly family members and children can take up hours of time and energy. Performing well at any job requires mental, emotional, and physical effort. Meeting up with friends, even when you truly enjoy their company, can also cost spoons you may not have. On…
