Same stiff different day? Do you really want to live your life that way? There are people that work their butt off and don't say anything and there are those that work and tell you every step of the way how they are doing. Which of those people do you want to work around?

You can always see in others whatever traits of Character you are looking for.

anything you say bounces off me and sticks to you. Remember that jingle as a kid? Well, it is alive and well in this day and age. There are people out there that strive to get under your skin and throw shade for the sake of taking you out of your game. Whether it be for work or a pick up game of basketball. We cannot control the emotions of others but we can control how we react to them. In this mediation we talk about the different instances where you see this in your everyday life and how to best recognize it so you can be ready for non-reaction.

A wise person thinks twice before answering once. In my line of business this meditation speaks volumes. The title of the meditation is a nod to halloween as well and a good song in the 90s hair band craze! If we would just pause for a moment and listen to the question being asked we will have a better outcome in my opinion.

This is true in your job, your relationships and sometimes when you are talking to yourself.

This meditation hits me square in the face with an issue that came up today and I talk about it in the podcast at length. When I live in the moment and stop thinking about the "what if's" of the future and the "wrongs" of the past I have a better chance of happiness and a good outcome. Negative thoughts can be powerful if you let it creep in. What are you doing to plan positive thoughts in your mind?

Let's talk about it.

Ever play the "What if" game? How's that working out for you? It doesn't bode well with me because it messes with my head. In this episode I talk about our trip down to Key West and Fantasy Fest. What went wrong if anything? How does this compare to your worries. Remember, every problem has a solution.

Do you stand there and fight for your dreams and desires or do you run the other way and stay in a cloud of fear? I am fearful a lot and every day have to deal with the fight or flight issues of the mind. Ghostrider from Vapor Trails the Rush album comes to mind when I think of moving into the unknown. There are 4 songs Rush wrote about fear and I would suggest you track those down and listen to them. Powerful stuff and a different take on the issue. Happy Birthday to me and thank you for listening to my voice this fine morning. This is Big Dave and YOU go and have a GREAT day!
