July 21, 2022 075: What are the odds?
The odds of us an individuals is so low, it can't really be measured. If you look at your life and the things you have, it's possible that any number of things could have either happened, or not happened that would have completely changed everything. It's something we can look at to maintain perspective. We could have so easily never existed, so why not be happy every day just to be here?

July 12, 2022 074: Negative Thoughts, Positive Action
Negative thoughts are very common. There is research that says that our brains look for negativity for survival. Back when we were in the food chain, we had to pay attention to things to avoid becoming some predator's meal. Now, we have less concern about this kind of thing, but our brains are still the same. Negative stress and anxiety often comes in the form of negative "what if" questions that can plague us. We can use the feelings these thoughts produce as a trigger to remind us that we are thinking negatively and also trigger us to take positive action. Positive action may not fully cure this right away, but it will definitely help you start heading in a better, more positive direction.

Often times we try to do something and set ourselves up for failure because we "try" to do it rather than commit. It seems like a subconsious way of giving ourself an out in case we want to give up. If we commit, we know it's going to hurt more if we give up.
