The Rebbe Nachman of Breslow often said, 'Always remember-Joy is
not merely incidental to your spiritual quest. It is vital.' As
the years have gone by and I've been in the practice of
psychology over 20 years, I have become more and more convinced
that he was so right, that joy is not an option. When we take
away joy and we take away a sense of well-being, a sense that we
are thriving, we allow ourselves or seem to find ourselves in
circumstances that seem to drain, tire and weaken us. We are ...

Man has this amazing ability to copy, to follow, to be led or he
has a driving wish to be exactly the same as those around him.
It is called the sheep syndrome. The next door neighbors have
just got a ten speed lawnmower '.. all the kids at school have
one''the dot.com bubble ''''. fashionable/trendy '''.I want to
be the same ''..and so on down the trail!
An immense example of misplaced sheep syndrome is the current
British mind set of buying of property in another country.
Millions of ...

As a dyslexic writing my first, recently published book, 'The Achiever's Journey' (www.theachieversjourney.com) I quickly realised that people were generally not well informed about dyslexia - what it is and how it affects people's daily lives. Some people see it as a stigma, others believe it to be brain damage; neither of which is true. Through my research I have identified more than 70 definitions for dyslexia.
Although dyslexics consistently experience difficulties in learning, reading and ...

John walked into the kitchen and slumped against the counter.
'Hi John, ' I said. 'What's the matter with you?'
'Oh, nothing,' he mumbled.
'Must be a woman,' I laughed. John was my roommate's brother and
his romantic adventures were a source of great amusement at our
house. He was always on the make but rarely successful.
'Yeah, well'there's this girl I met at a party and she's sooooo
cute. And I got her number and I've been calling her but she
keeps coming up with excuses when I ask her to a ...

Notes of first therapy session with Mark, male, 36, diagnosed with Schizoid Personality Disorder
Mark sits where instructed, erect but listless. When I ask him how he feels about attending therapy, he shrugs and mumbles "OK, I guess". He rarely twitches or flexes his muscles or in any way deviates from the posture he has assumed early on. He reacts with invariable, almost robotic equanimity to the most intrusive queries on my part. He shows no feelings when we discuss his uneventful childhood, ...

Excerpts from a recent interview Interviewer: OK, what IS
intuition? Does anyone really know? Do YOU know? Susan: Well,
that's how I started years ago when I learned that intuition (or
'gut feeling') was an Emotional Intelligence competency (my area
of expertise), and I was going to have to figure out not only
what it was, but how to teach it to others. I had a teleclass,
and I asked if anyone on the call knew a lot about intuition.
There were two people. I said, 'What is intuition?' and ...

Most of the people think that they can amass a lot of wealth if they are lucky, or a wise professional tells them which career to choose. Although you may find a path to a good career with a sound advice but it is not the way to great riches. You can't even become very rich by dreaming about sudden inheritance from somewhere. According to researches 80% of the millionaires or billionaires are self-made.
These billionaires didn't inherit their wealth from parents or any uncle. They are first ...
