Some of these negative people are in your family, some are at the office, and others are out loose in the malls, on the roads, and other unpredictable public places. Yikes!

18th October 2011 Living with Passion and Purpose
0
Living with passion and purpose is key to creating the life we wan and drawing meaning from it. It even helps us live a longer and healthier life.

We have so many mindsets that dictate what we should do that it makes it difficult to discover what aligns with our heart. We’re so afraid we’ll make a mistake, or lose what we have that we avoid taking the time to find the answers. And yet, we wonder why we seem to drift aimlessly through life without a direction or anchor.

The art of communication streamlines as a life-supporting form, as it conveys a vital role in our daily lives. We engage in countless interactions between ourselves, our work colleagues and clients, our significant other and our children, our friends, future relationships and so forth. These interactions occur where we live, work, relax and socialize; they are a part of our lives, present in all that we do.

by Jane Chin, Ph.D.I’m one of those anxious, over-thinking, making-it-all-too-complicated, high-stress people. I keep aiming my boat up the stream rather than “merrily down the stream”. But stress, like all things in moderation, has its benefits. Growth is stress. Learning is stress. We have enjoyed the fruits of stress against the status quo, and now we have technological advancements that we only dreamed of decades ago.
