So Many of Our Gremlins Are of Our Own Making

A roller coaster week with lots of ups and downs...I'm turning my face to the sunshine and realize that so many of my gremlins are of my own making...aren't they always?!? Meet Insecure-Imelda-Petty-Patty. She is my inner voice that likes to have me look around at what EVERYBODY else is doing in the world and then she turns to me and (just when I LEAST expect it) whispers: LOOK--SEE--YOU'RE NOT AS GOOD AS THEY ARE.

This post first appeared on the blog in October of 2011, and is a partial re-print of an article dated October 2010 It’s Halloween time, which always leads me to want to stop and ruminate on the spooky, the scary, and the evil that’s out to get us all! As my sister and I spent the last several days at our mom’s house, helping her mend from back surgery, we spent our evenings decompressing with ON DEMAND horror flicks. Yes, that’s right. When we need to forget about our life for a while, we turn …

H.A.L.T. the C.O.W.S.!

Ever hear these kind of phrases in your head? If you “coulda” worked harder, you would’ve gotten that promotion. You “oughta” attend that networking event, even if you don’t want to. If you “woulda” structured that project better, you’d be done by now. You really “shoulda” handled that differently—you looked like a fool. If you do catch yourself hearing comments like these in your head – BE AWARE! Words like Coulda, Oughta, Woulda, and Shoulda (i.e., the infamous C.O.W.S.) are all clues to you …
