If you believe that you may have a Narcissist in your life, there are specific traits and behaviors to look for.

It will save you time, money, and your sanity so that you can move on to the next chapter of your life better, not broken or bitter. Not looking at the big picture ARTArticleAre You Parenting from Fear?I blogged about parenting from fear recently. Since writing about it, I have become acutely aware of how much of my anxiety is driven by fears about what might happen to my kids. I read a quote recently by Alan Cohen that stated, “Anxiety is a sign that you have made up a story contrary to reality. Love does not fear.”ARTArticleAre you screwing up the chance to be happy?I thought my world had ended back in January. I had this job and career that made me comfortable and paid well. It was not necessarily a job that I loved, but it made me feel secure and gave me the validation that I thought I needed. Until I was laid off. I started to panic, because although I was not necessarily happy with it, it least it paid the bills and the thought of financially uncertainty terrified me.ARTArticleAre you screwing up the chance to be happy?I thought my world had ended back in January.

Until I was laid off. I started to panic, because although I was not necessarily happy with it, it least it paid the bills and the thought of financially uncertainty terrified me.ARTArticleAre You Unintentionally Disrespecting Your Man?Imagine this scenario: You and your man are out to a restaurant with friends. The food is good, drinks are flowing and the conversation is lively. Everyone is having a good time. Your friend’s man reaches for the salt and accidentally knocks her drink over, spilling it on the table and in her lap. “Watch what you’re doing!” she shouts, jumping up from her seat and brushing the ice from her pants. “You’re so clumsy.” “Honey, I’m sorry,” he says, attempting to blot the liquid from the table and handling her some dry napkins. “I didn’t realize –“ARTArticleAre Your Expectations for Marriage Realistic?What do you expect from marriage? Honestly, do you think everything should be perfect? Actually, many people marry and soon find that their spouse is annoying — not constantly of course, but more than they expected. Fairy tales and romantic novels suggest that a good marriage is an effortless, happily ever after experience, with the emphasis on effortless. PEOPLE ARE ANNOYING Rabbi Yosef Richards offers this tongue-in-cheek, but really truer to life view of marriage: “People are annoying. So find the person who annoys you the least and marry that one.”ARTArticleBack to School, Back to Bullying?We certainly hope that back to school does not mean back to bullying! Unfortunately being bullied at school is the reality for too many children. According to the National Crime Prevention Council, "Bullying has become a tidal wave of epic proportions." Everyone's Role ARTArticleBalance is Key — in Yoga and RelationshipsHave you tried the yoga tree pose? You stand straight, then raise one foot and place it against the calf of the leg that is taking all your weight. Staying in this pose for thirty seconds can feel like an ete ity. It’s easy to lose your balance.ARTArticleBasic Manners And Why They Are ImportantTalking about manners seems sort of redundant and well… obvious. But it’s not as obvious as one would think. I work in an elementary school and I am surprised, almost daily, at the lack of manners. Many kids do not reciprocate when they are greeted with “good morning!” or “hello”. IF they even look at you, they don’t miss a beat and continue on the their way. I, myself, stop them and remind them that when someone greets you, the polite thing to do is respond back. But this gets me thinking. Why do they think it ok to just ignore someone that is speaking to them?ARTArticleBefore You Give Someone Advice, Try This FirstWhen our kids were growing up I (Charlie) used to get teased a lot by them for being optimistic so much of the time. They used to accuse me of denying the reality of how hard life could sometimes be whenever I would share a hopeful attitude about a difficulty that they were struggling with. It's not that I would deny the difficulty, but rather I often tried to get them to see things from another perspective. I meant well but in retrospect, I can (finally) understand why they were so frustrated with me.ARTArticleBetter Than HappinessIt may sound strange coming from someone who has written dozens of blogs about happiness and taught a lot of seminars on the subject, to hear that happiness isn’t necessarily all that it’s cracked up to be. Or put another way, in terms of one’s overall quality of life, spirit, and degree of personal fulfillment, some things play a much more significant role than feelings of happiness. I’ll get to that in a minute.ARTArticleBetterLiving Through Chemistry?All living things, human and animal, strive for homeostasis—keeping things balanced. If hungry, we eat; if thirsty, we drink; if sleepy, nap; etc. Humans, though, take this one step further: Not only do we want our biological processes balanced, we want to feel good. (We feel good when the pleasure center in our brain is stimulated.) Alcohol, drugs, fatty greasy food, jewelry, fancy cars, expensive clothes, sex, video gaming, etc. have little to do with balance but everything to do with seeking pleasure.ARTArticleBetween Work And Home, What Is The Best Work Environment For Productivity?How many times on average you spend at work per week? Most people will probably say something between 40 hours to 50 hours or even 60 hours as for the elite average. Now let me ask you this, when you come back from work, how many hours do you take out of your family time to finish an unfinished work that was meant to be finished at work? On this post, I am not going to judge whether or not it's ok to bring work at home, but I will light up on some of the reasons why working at home in contrast to the typical workplace will work better for everyone.ARTArticleBioTrust Nutrition Review - Does It Work?A lot of people are in search of the most reliable plan to shed off their excess fat. Getting to lose weight quickly and sustainability comes with making specific and achievable goals. It goes without saying that you need to embrace an effective drill as an incentive in the weight lose journey. Whether you have decided to get a better shape as part of the new year's resolution, it will not land on the wayside unless you boost or introduce a new daily routine. We found an easy tweak of a product called BioTrust nutritional diet.ARTArticleBreak or Breakup?Break or Breakup? I recently had a discussion with a couple of friends about the controversy of “taking a break” from a relationship that may be heading south. It seemed that the consensus was if it was basically meant to be you wouldn’t need a break. “If someone wants a break, it is often because they want to play the field,” said one friend. Another friend completely disagreed, confidently stating that she knew of a number of couples that were happily married today that took a break during their courtship.ARTArticleCan "Stinkin Thinkin" Make You Ill?Just as we develop various behavioral habits, we institute certain thinking habits, as well. Some of our behavioral habits are healthy, like exercising regularly, and some are not, like consuming a bowl of ice cream before bed. By the same token, some of our thinking habits are positive and healthy, like “I can do this” or “I deserve to be treated respectfully,” and, again, some thinking patterns are negative and unhealthy, like “I can’t do this—I always fail” or “I deserve to be mistreated—I am unworthy.”ARTArticleCan a Father Be a Role Model for His Daughters?As the single and sole parent of my five children for over 18 years now (2 boys and 3 girls), I hoped I would be a natural role model to my boys for the way to grow to be successful men. I wanted my boys to man up as soon as they were old enough. Work hard, be a leader, be kind to everyone, treat women with respect, protect and provide for your family, and be charitable. Qualities people think men should have.ARTArticleCan Good Marriages Have Unresolved Conflicts?Even in the best marriages, not all conflicts get resolved. According to psychologist John Gottman’s research, 69 percent of problems in marriage do not get solved.[1] His good news is that in good marriages many perpetual issues that are not deal breakers can be managed. It's not the presence of conflict that stresses the relationship; it is the manner in which the couple responds. Positive, respectful communication about differences helps keep a marriage thriving.ARTArticleCan My Marriage Withstand Lingering Conflict?Many people think that if a marriage is basically healthy all issues get resolved. Yet according to psychologist and author John Gottman's groundbreaking research, a whopping 69 percent of problems in marriage do not get solved.[1] His good news, though, is that many problems can be managed. Gottman states that couples can live with unresolvable conflicts about perpetual issues in their relationship if the issues are not deal breakers.ARTArticleCan Prayer Really Help Relationships?Personally, I grew up with no encouragement to pray. I used to have a vague sense that prayer was for simple, naïve folks, that it was the “opiate for the masses.” So I do understand if you don’t relate to the concept. But perhaps you do. Most Americans Pray Daily. According to a Pew Research Center survey, 55% of Americans say they pray every day. Another 21% say they pray weekly or monthly.(1) Even many who are not religiously affiliated say they pray daily.ARTArticleCan rejection actually be a good thing?None of us are immune to rejection. It doesn’t matter where you are in life, and whether it’s ending a marriage or breaking up with a partner. Even the strongest of us can’t help but feel like we did something wrong when the person we loved and cared about and spent our lives with as a partner suddenly doesn’t want to be with us anymore. “Why don’t they love me anymore?” “What did I do wrong?” “What’s wrong with me?” “What could I have done differently?”ARTArticleCan You Talk about Money with Your Partner?Depending on who you are, talking about money with a partner may be taboo, acceptable, or somewhere in between. In many cultures and families, it is not okay to talk about money. In others, it's fine to speak openly about it. Regardless of which category you fit into, understanding the source of your attitude can help you address money related conce s more successfully.
