Letting go of a relationship
Why is it that we hold on to relationships long past their natural end? Think of a friendship that no longer exists. Do you still remember how your friend insulted or deserted you? You gained new friends, but you still feel that hurt. Remember that supervisor who made your life such hell that you left to get a new job? You smile every time you think what a sad sod that supervisor is, and how much better off you are now. Or you still resent the opportunity that you missed as a result of that person, even though you gained much more from the new job than from the old one.

How Long Should Marriage Vows Last?
I recently wrote an article in which I explained that any relationship has a natural duration, after which it ends – unless the people in the relationship hold on to the relationship for dear life. This raised a question about marriage vows.

It is true because I was told it is true
How many things do you believe because someone else tells you that it is true? Let me give you an example. When you are a child, you trust people and do not question what your parents tell you. As you gain life experience, your parents are there to guide you and teach you how to interpret your experiences. What do your parents base their teachings on?

You Cannot See The Picture When You Are in The Frame
Have you ever had one of those experiences where you ask yourself ”Why have things gone so wrong for me? What have I done to deserve this?” I have had many of them over the years. When I was still a church goer, the standard sanctimonious answer was “Just suffer through it.

How to Love Your Relatives
I come from a family of special souls. We are as different as chalk and cheese. The chalks have beautiful colours. The cheeses have a wide range of textures tastes. Together, we make an interesting, tasty and useful combination.

How to Turn Sleepless Nights into Sweet Dreams
This is a quote from the Wall Street journal in September 2009: “A recent study reported that 52% of working French don’t sleep well on Sunday night. But work-related stress is not a French disease, and is ubiquitous and severe in all developed economies. In the U.K. and U.S.

How to Live an Authentic Life
Are you living an authentic life? How would you know where to find the answer to this question? Frank Joseph said “Following a vocation, that inner call, is not self-indulgence or an excuse for laziness. Doing what one really wants to do is hard work, but it is self-fulfilling as nothing else can be. It is the ultimate key to personal happiness in the physical world.” These words have given me much comfort at a time when my career and life have fused in a direction which I least anticipated.

Are you doing Job’s job?
Here is an interesting piece of information: I looked up the meaning of the word “job” in the dictionary. The meanings included “task, chore, difficulty, problem, trouble, hard time”. This reminded me of a biblical figure called Job, whose name means “persecuted, afflicted, adversity”. Is there some message in there? I wonder. Have you been made redundant recently? It is interesting how such an experience impacts not only on you, but also on your colleagues who are not made redundant. I have been made redundant three times in my career.

Why the Secret Causes Stress
By now we all know the Secret: decide what you want, and believe that it will come your way. The more you believe, the quicker it comes your way. Right? Then why does it not work? Why are we not all very rich and healthy and happy by now? There are a few other factors that we need to be aware of when we want to apply the Secret. The first factor is our own resistance against anything new. You say you don’t resist anything new? OK, let’s try this. Let me tell you that I have discovered the cure for all cancers.

I Love Bullies
Yes, I do. Throughout my life I have had to deal with bullies. Some of my first memories are of my mother mistreating me physically and emotionally. I encountered numerous bullies as colleagues, and too many of them used me for target practice. I also married a man who nearly destroyed me emotionally, and I had other relationships and friendships that did nothing for my self-esteem. The treatment I had from my mother led me to much introspection. I just could not understand why she disliked me so much.

Who is in Command?
I am always fascinated about how our questions get answered - and sometimes how we are steered in a direction without even asking the question. Someone very dear and close to me is at a point where he has no dignity or quality of life left. He had told me in so many words that he is not afraid of dying. Yet he is still holding on to life while his mind and body are shutting down at an alarming rate.

Our shadow selves make bad decisions
Have you ever been in a position where you made a decision because you felt at the time that you had to, even though your mind was woolly and the world was unreal? I am sure you lived to not only regret that decision, but also to ask yourself “What had gotten into me when I decided that?” And it is possible that at the time you were recently traumatised, for example being widowed, walking away from a very destructive relationship, being forced to leave a job, and so on. Such experiences often uproot our entire existence, and turn our world upside down.
