Accept no one’s definition of your life; define yourself.
THIS WEEK DAN AND I WILL BE BLOGGING ON THE SERIES OF LIVING SUCCESSFULLY WITH SCREWED-UP PEOPLE, THE HERB – CACAO. ALSO 101 WAYS TO HAPPINESS.
Hello followers,
Countdown to SPRING, 11 more days.
As I continue the topic of living a great story, I had in mind; that this determines one’s health.
Just think about the different directions you can go, life change.
The beginning is a stopper, a few magic words that grab the listeners so they'll sit up and pay attention: "Once upon a time there were Dan and Sherry...."
The middle can be anything that will keep the listeners hooked.
Dan and Sherry move to Mexico.
The journey begins, enjoying life while managing cancer, changes their lifestyles.
Then the two of them come home to the states relocating to Virginia.
In the end, Sherry and Dan, explores the Blue Ridge Mountains, and they live happily ever after.
Your story might not sound like that.
But what our stories and our lives tend to share in common is structure:
A beginning, a middle and an end; we're born, we live and then, well, we move on.
101 WAYS TO HAPPINESS; by Mike Annesley.

CHAPTER 5; HAPPILY, BUSY
BE A MENTOR
Teaching can be a kind of inverse learning.
A responsive pupil gives a great deal back, not least an enthusiasm that may instill in the teacher a new joy in their subject.
You can be a mentor at any age, but it’s particularly rewarding in later life; when there’s accumulated experiences to convey.
A younger student can provide the occasion for a bridge across generations.
Set expectations and ground rules before you start including a contact schedule.
Assess the pupil’s needs.
Work together with mutual commitment toward agreed goals.
Allow yourself plenty of listening time.
Don’t just hold forth!
Let the pupil make decisions.
Even ones you might not have made yourself in their position.
Continuing from last year the series on LIVING SUCCESSFULLY WITH SCREWED-UP PEOPLE, by Elizabeth B. Brown.
Dan and I continue to share ways to benefit and help keep one’s health cells healthy.
A wise man told me ten years ago, when one is in balance with themselves; one stays healthy.

Today starting on CHAPTER 14; HOW MANY TIMES DO I SAY “SORRY”?
To apologize is to accept responsibility for something you did wrong.
It is personal accountability.
This demands maturity and may not be understood by others.
It isn’t a way to get out of something or a way to show off your humility.
It isn’t a kite to fly in the other person’s face, followed by a tagalong tail of stipulations, conditions or justification.
Nor is it like popcorn, coming fast, often and from everywhere.
Popcorn apologies are merely a string of words, not heartfelt assumptions of responsibility.
