Post Written By Eugene Morgan “I think in terms of the day’s resolutions, not the year’s.”— Henry Moore It is interesting that Moore sees things in term of a solution instead of a problem. He thinks about what he can do to resolve things today, not wait until tomorrow. When we think in terms of resolving […]

Grab A Hold
Post Written By Eugene Morgan Milton Erickson once said that experiencing confusion is one step away of making a decision. Confusion is trying to decide what we’re going to do next. Confusion is a brief moment of trying to find an idea that we can grab a hold of rather than having nothing to grab at all. […]
Act or Forget
Post Written By Eugene Morgan “Complaining is silly. Either act or forget.”— Stefan Sagmeister It is so much easier to complain than to act. If we act, there will always be some risks involved. But if think the risk is too great, then it is better just to forget about it and move on. If we’re […]
Being Independent
Post Written By Eugene Morgan For us to grow, we must claim our independence. Being independent doesn’t exclude us from needing support from others. Being independent means having freedom and responsibility to walk our own path. Being independent means to be self-reliant. Being independent is knowing when we need help without feeling helpless or powerless. […]
Happy and Useful
Post Written By Eugene Morgan “What is the meaning of life? To be happy and useful.”—Dalai Lama Being useful is what makes us happy. When we’re being useful, we feel good about ourselves. We get a feeling of satisfaction when we offer something that’s useful for another person. Being happy and useful is what makes […]
What Are Memories?
Post Written By Eugene Morgan Memories are from our experiences. In other words, our memories are the offspring of our experiences. Memories are very powerful because we can revisit them and experience them again. Some of our memories are very vivid while others are very faint. Our faint memories are the ones we want to […]
What Do We Think?
Post Written By Eugene Morgan “Your value doesn’t decrease based on someone’s inability to see your worth.”—Unknown How much do we think we’re worth depends on how much we value ourselves. Sometimes, we have the tendency to want everyone to like us because if everyone likes us, then we will feel worthy and feel good […]
Tough People or Tough Times
Post Written By Eugene Morgan “Tough times never last, but tough people do.”— Robert Schuller When we’re in the mist of a tough time, it feels like eternity. When we continue to focus on the feeling of that experience, it becomes difficult for us to see that this will end and that we can get through […]
It is Just a Test
Post Written By Eugene Morgan Waiting is the hardest thing to do when we’re waiting for the results of a test. It could be an exam that we’ve studied so hard for. All kinds of things can go through our minds from if we have failed the test to second guessing ourselves. Anticipating the result […]
What is Worth Doing
Post Written By Eugene Morgan “If anything is worth doing, do it with all your heart.” —Buddha What we think is worth doing really depends on how important it is to us. It is through our background and our experiences that we acquire what we think is worth doing. One person may find running is […]
Expectations Too High
Post Written By Eugene Morgan If we’re constantly and easily disappointed about something, then that must mean that our expectations is too high. It is difficult for us to have a positive attitude when we have high expectations. But if we lower our expectations about things, then we can easily manage our lives without being […]
Developing Our Strengths
Post Written By Eugene Morgan Success is achieved by developing our strengths, not by eliminating our weaknesses.”—Marilyn vos Savant Sometimes we get caught up in looking at what we lack instead of developing what we already have, are our strengths. It is easier to develop our strengths than it is to make our weaknesses into our […]
Peace From Within
Post Written By Eugene Morgan “Other people do not have to change for us to experience peace of mind.”— Gerald Jampolsky We don’t have to change for other people for them to experience peace of mind. Instead, we can change for ourselves for us to experience peace of mind. Having a peace of mind happens from […]
Doubt Our Power
Post Written By Eugene Morgan “When you doubt your power, you give power to your doubt.”—Honore de Balzac Our doubts are fueled by the same energy as our courage. We could either watch through the lens of doubt or through the lens of courage. We have a choice. We don’t have to be defined by […]
A Little is A Lot
Post Written By Eugene Morgan “Give thanks for a little and you will find a lot.”—Hausa Proverb When we begin to give thanks for what little we have, we begin to see that we do have a lot. And when we realize that there were others who spent time schooling us about life, we then […]
The Right Use of Knowledge
Post Written By Eugene Morgan “Wisdom is the right use of knowledge.”— Charles H. Spurgeon Through trial and error we gain some experiences. And with experiences we have the opportunity to gain some wisdom along the way. The most misunderstanding in using words or hypnotic suggestions is that they have power. There is no such thing […]
Curiosity And Answers
Post Written By Eugene Morgan Curiosity stimulates our brains in to wanting to know something. Curiosity is the basis of learning something new that’s intriguing. We want to know everything about everything. Not all our questions will be answered. Not all questions are answerable. Sometimes we’ve got to ask the right questions for us to […]
Let Go of What Was
Post Written By Eugene Morgan “Accept what is, let go of what was, and have faith in what will be.”—Sonia Ricotti If we let go of what was, then it is easier to accept what is and have faith in what will be. Since we can do nothing about our past or foresee what’s […]
Our Beliefs Are Meant To Be Tested
Post Written By Eugene Morgan If we see a task as something unpleasant to do, then we will experience unpleasant feelings. When we start to experience unpleasant feelings about a task, then we would find a way to avoid doing it. We sometimes get caught up in the feelings of unpleasantry of doing […]
Keep Going
Post Written By Eugene Morgan “Don’t watch the clock; do what it does. Keep going.”—Sam Levenson This quote is a good analogy of how we get ourselves so easily distracted, instead of doing the work we set out to do. When we look at the clock, we’re looking to see how much time we have […]
