IN THE LONG RUN

Ultimately, being a kind, caring, honorable and boundered person is being good to your SELF as well as to others! Don't believe me? Just ask those who haven't been! There are many--too many--to survey.

TO HELP SOMEONE

It's Never too Late:


TO HELP SOMEONE

It brings joy to both parties.
It makes you a better person and gives the receiver
faith and hope.
It's usually reciprocated.
It gives life greater purpose.

And he forgot to mention it is a Pride Bank Deposit!

From It's Never too Late by Patrick Lindsay

YOU GOTTA COUNT IT ALL

Our personal accounting is often faulty. We tend to give ourselves -10 for a minor failing and +1 for an important accomplishment. "Oh, it was nothing," are words that reflect this imbalance. If people managed their bank accounts the way they manage their personal account, they would always be in the red and soon be bankrupt.

It is important to count it all and count it fairly. In some respects emotional bankruptcy is worse than the financial kind. This is precisely why I created the idea of a "shame and blame" account and a "pride bank." My goal is to help people identify and keep track of their emotional assets and liabilities. I encourage you to count the former and work on the latter and try objectively, to give it all a fair rating.

In all liklihood the plusses deserve 10+,the minuses 1-3...Ok maybe a 4 and in most areas of life 7 out of 10 ain't bad at all-- unless of course it is geometry or calculus in which case, join the club!

STOPGLOP.COM

On Friday I used the word GLOP and promised to elaborate this week. Glop is intended to remind us that our life's goal is to fill our pride bank and avoid shame and blame deposits. It is the standard by which I have tried to live my life.

Glop is an unattractive, unappealing word I use to describe anything that tempts people to put themselves in harms way. Glop lives large in alcohol, drugs,casinos, food,boardrooms,bedrooms and even shops--bricks and mortar or on-line.

Glop tempts people toward hurtful and self-destructive behaviors. It makes a mess time and time again. We see this over and over with famous and not so famous people.

I encourage you to check out your glopful potentials and choices and work hard to reduce or eliminate them from your repertoire. Check out the inventories at www.stopglop.com. I wish you health, healing and happiness.
