Five Roads to Self Discovery . . . How to Find Your Road

Webster defines Self Discovery as the act or process of achieving self-knowledge. Further, he defines Self Help as the action or process of bettering oneself or overcoming one's problems. Both are all about changing oneself. It’s all about finding ways to change your life. I love this quote by George Carlin: “I went to the bookstore and asked the salesperson, ‘Where’s the self-help section?’ She said if she told me, it would defeat the purpose.” It’s true we do have to fin

Aging and the Functional Areas of Information Processing and Memory

While recognition of stages involving cognition in the developing child are universal--although much disagreement exists regarding the nature and substance of those stages--the study of cognitive change in adulthood becomes mired in the various definitions and philosophical views proposed by the respective theorists and researchers (Woolf, 1998). Structuralism, for instance, views cognitive change as unidirectional, whereas a life-span developmental theorist views it as multidirectional.

Some Simple Techniques to Assuage Tension From Stress

The normal state of the human mind and body is that of total health and relaxation. This is not the abnormal state. It is healthy.

Chronic (ongoing) stress, which is caused by worry, negative thoughts, and negative emotions, can result in ulcers, arthritis, cancer, and many other diseases that are often otherwise avoidable. It literally causes the body to deteriorate. Disease is a result of stress, not its cause.

Brain Wave Entrainment Can Change How You Really Are

The expression of who we are, our personality, is housed in our mind, our life data processor. As we experience life, our brain changes as it learns and adapts to what is happening to us, and how we feel about it. If it didn't do this, we wouldn't survive. Brain matter is malleable or plastic and is shaped by our life experiences and how we process them.

Brainwave Entrainment: Why It Really Works

Do you want to know why I think it works? I believe it works because there is physical evidence, if the brain is stimulated in a repetitive, rhythmic manner, that it will physically change, growing new blood vessels and neural pathways, and you can see all of this on a brain scan. New brain pathways produce new states of consciousness. The brain physically changes with repeated stimulation.

There Is No "I Tried" in Success

Those who say winning is not everything have probably never truly won anything because they do not know the true meaning of success. To recognize success, it is necessary first to define failure. Failure is the refusal either to establish a plan or to work persistently toward its accomplishment, regardless of the challenges. Most of us were never taught that failure is a matter of choice or that success is a matter of choice. Failure is not, as many believe, the result of lack of talent, money, time, or opportunity.

How narcissist’s use baiting to get an emotional reaction and why they use it

One of the common narcissistic tendencies is baiting.
