Rejection Slip. |

Description of Story: August 10, 2010.
We all know the pain of rejection. We've felt the sorrow, the sadness, the bitter sting of rejection; some of us more than others. And it's never a good feeling. When people reject what we say, think or do, regardless of whether it's personal or business in nature, it hurts. Flat out hurts as a matter of fact.

Description of Story: August 8, 2010.
There are things that really matter in life; things that mean more to us than anything else on earth. Our family, faith and friends would certainly top the list, along with our principles and core beliefs. These very special things, these very special people are our most priceless possessions. And we hold them very close to our hearts.
They are truly what matters most in life.

Description of Story: August 7, 2010.
There's a tendency to hold on to the special things in our lives. And hold on tightly. Maybe we're afraid of losing what we have. Or perhaps we're worried about replacing what is lost. For those reasons or a thousand more, we hold on to what we have.
And refuse to let go.

Stay Tuned. |

Description of Story: August 6, 2010.
Staying on top of our game isn't always easy. In fact, sometimes it's downright difficult. With life buzzing by at breakneck speed, we constantly get pulled in one direction and then tugged in another. When you toss in the fact that many of us work at jobs we don't like, doing things we don't like to do, it's a small wonder we're able to maintain any focus whatsoever.

Description of Story: August 5, 2010.
Ever wished you would have done something, but didn't? Maybe it was something you wanted to try. Or perhaps something you wanted to pursue. Well don't feel alone. Regardless of how much each of us has accomplished in our lifetimes, we all have a closet full of 'wish we would haves.' Things we wished we would have taken a stab at. Things we should have given a go.
But didn't.

Who Ate My Free Lunch? |

Description of Story: August 4, 2010.
If there is one thing just about everybody loves, it's getting something for free. Something they didn't have to work for, something they didn't have to pay for, something that's just given to them. There is just nothing like getting a freebie.
At least that's what some people think.

Description of Story: August 3, 2010.
I wish I was somewhere else, doing something else. Anything other than what I'm doing right now. Anywhere but where I'm at right now. Why can't I be somebody else, someplace else, doing something else? Getting something other than what I'm getting right now?

You'd Better Be Right. |

Description of Story: August 1, 2010.
There are times when life can look pretty bleak. And there are moments when life looks even bleaker than that. And let's be honest, nobody likes bleak. Bleak is yucky. Bleak is gloomy. Bleak is drab, dreary and downright depressing.

We see others who have IT. They've got it going. They've got it working. They seem to have it all together. And we wish we had it too.

Description of Story: July 19, 2010.
Life is what we make of it. It's in our hands. We can make it one heck of an adventure ride, where each day offers a brand new level of excitement and opportunity. Or we can make it pure drudgery, where we struggle to barely scrape by.

Description of Story: We wish we could make our dreams come true. Not next year or somewhere down the line, but right here; right where we are right now.

Description of Story: July 10, 2010.
How's life treating you these days? Have you really got things going - or kind of wondering where you're going? Are you setting the world on fire - or just sort of smoldering in the corner? Are your days filled with energy, excitement and anticipation - or are they a good less exciting than you hoped they could be? Or should be?

Getting Out Of Line. |

Description of Story: June 30, 2010.
There's nothing like waiting in line. There's nothing like cooling your heels or wasting your time... as long as you're in no particular hurry. If you don't possess any real sense of urgency, if you don't have any immediate plans, then standing in line probably works out fine for you.
However, if you've got places to go and things to do, a line that's going nowhere fast is about the last place you want to be.

Join the club.

Just Because. |

Description of Story: June 20, 2010.
Does it occasionally feel like you're doing stuff for just about everyone else... but yourself? That you're doing things because you have to do them, not because you want to? That you're doing just about everything else under the sun except pursuing your dreams and doing own your thing? Instead of living the life you desire, you keep putting the things you want to be doing, seeing and having on the back burner.

Magnetic Attraction. |

Description of Story: June 16, 2010.
Some people go through life expecting bad things to happen. Perpetually pessimistic, constantly anticipating trouble at every turn, they far too often find what they're looking for. Their ever-present doom and gloom outlook just naturally attracts BAD stuff. As a result, these people invariably lead lives filled with defeat, disappointment and doubt.
