  • Thought of the Day: Are You a Pessimist or an Optimist?

    The thought of the day presents a reflective meditation on perspective, contrasting optimistic and pessimistic viewpoints with a more analytical, engineering-like approach. It explores the author's personal experiences of shifting between these perspectives, emphasizing the power of choosing gratitude and appreciating life's blessings. The meditation encourages self-reflection on how one interprets challenges, suggesting that difficulties often offer valuable lessons and opportunities for growth. Finally, it proposes that our happiness hinges less on avoiding hardship and more on constructively interpreting life's lessons.


    • Do you see the glass as half empty or half full?

      • Are you afraid that a half-empty glass will soon be gone, or are you glad that you have half a glass of something to enjoy?

        • How do the "half-empty" people affect you when you're around them? Are their views generally positive?

          • Is it realistic to expect that all of our glasses should be full all the time?

          • Thought of the Day: The Gift of Giving, The Act of Sharing

            Take time today to help one another.


            How often do you commit small, seemingly insignificant acts to help others? What are the effects of those acts?
            If courtesy is contagious, can it be also that helping acts are contagious?
            If we serve others, do you think that those others will be more likely to serve in their turn? Do you think that we can serve others by allowing them to serve us?
            How often do we reject the help of others who would be more than glad to help us?

            • Review of Pod Decks' Dating Life Created Originally by Felipe Blue & Jemma Al'Salaam

              Ken and Karen of Teams, LLC, a business extension of More Than Therapy founded by Judithe Louis-Ingram, as they do a review of a Pod Deck library entry called "Dating Life" created by Felipe Blue & Jemma Al'Salaam in preparation for a podcast episode based on dating which debuted on the More Than Therapy podcast.

              This deck comprises 49 probing questions to elicit intimate details about a person's dating history, current relationships, and perspectives on love and relationships. The questions range from lighthearted inquiries about ideal dates and worst pickup lines to more serious reflections on past relationships, personal growth, and future expectations. The overall aim is to spark self-awareness and deep conversation about romantic connections. The topics covered span personal experiences, relationship advice, and societal changes in dating norms.

            • Thought of the Day: Find Happiness in Your Own Blessings

              Why do many of us spend so much time counting others blessings or comparing ourselves to others?
              What purpose do such actions serve?
              What are some ways we can focus more on our own blessings and less on those of others that seem better than our own?

              How can we feel more gratitude for all that our bodies do for us?
              How much work has your body done today without you being aware of it?
