Tip #7 Choose Powerful Interpretations

-




"I am determined to be happy and cheerful for whatever situation I find myself in for I have learned that the greater part of happiness or misery lies in our dispositions and NOT on our circumstances." Eleanor Roosevelt

I always try and live by this quote. I find that it can be very powerful for me when I am stuck in my story. We all have lots of drama going on in our lives. Some worse than others. I find for me it gets quiet for awhile and then another bomb goes off.
Families can be really bad for that. It helps me to remember that I can react everytime something happens or I can stop and just observe. I'm learning to let go of my needing anything to any different then it is. To let go of my needing anyone to be any different then the way they are is simply just practice and catching yourself doing it. I find it liberating not to react to things going on around me. I don't isolate and I don't cop an attitude. I just observe and stay in the present moment.

It gives me a warm and wonderful feeling when I know that I am best serving others and myself when I'm living in the present moment and happy with what is. Choosing powerful interpretations reminds me that I get to choose a powerful meaning of what is going on around me. I get to choose how I look at these circumstances and how I respond to them. A powerful interpretation is when we can say. This is all happening for a reason. This person is in my life to teach me a valuable lesson that I haven't quite learned yet. When we focus on constructive, meaningful and positive interpretations, we get constructive meaningful and positive results.

All the best to you.
Love Carrie

Trans Activism

What walks like a teen fad and talks like a teen fad...is probably a teen fad. Celebrating trans is a growing trend and something I’m not okay with. But then again, I’m not a doctor set out to make millions off confused teenagers and desperate parents. I’m not big pharma that stands to make billions off these kids and the services including endocrinologists, sexual health physicians, speech pathologists, nurses, social workers, child and adolescent psychiatrist and psychologists. I feel sorry for the parents that must navigate this with their teenagers. As if raising kids isn’t hard enough. Am I the only one?  In Abigail Shrier’s book, Irreversible Damage: The Transgender Craze Seducing our daughters she alerts us to the newest trend in internet support groups that indoctrinate young girls into believing gender identity as the root of all their problems.  If Shrier is right, a great many people have been complicit in practices that are proving very harmful to adolescent girls.

Exploring Climate Change

-
Climate policies must benefit people as well as the environment. Fixating on scary stories about climate change leads us to make poor decisions. One CTV news reporter posted an article recently titled, “Here’s what the era of global boiling means for Canada.” The media outlets have become activists, reinforcing the extreme language against the backdrop of these wildfires. Imposing higher taxes to alter weather patterns is not resonating positively with the public, causing it to become a point of contention. Can we at least admit that it is as much a political issue as it is an environmental one?   Differing perspectives on its causes and consequences spark heated debates worldwide. Right now, there is nothing even close to a consensus on the scope of the problem or the best way to solve it.  Am I the only One?   Greta Thunberg is the poster child for this movement, but I’d like a more credible spokesperson than this.  She is very likely to live a longer, more prosperous life than her

The World Economic Forum (WEF) is a conference held every year in Davos, Switzerland where leaders around the world meet to address global challenges, share ideas, and promote cooperation on issues such as poverty, inequality, climate change, and technological advancements. Whether the WEF is seen as good or bad depends on individual perspectives.Opinions may differ based on political ideologies, personal beliefs, and experiences.  Supporters of the WEF argue that it plays a crucial role in fostering dialogue between various stakeholders, including governments, businesses, civil society, and academia. On the other hand, the WEF’s platform has faced criticism and argue that it primarily serves the interest of the wealthy elites and multinational corporations. The annual Davos gathering is predominantly attended by wealthy business leaders, politicians, and influential individuals, creating an exclusive environment that shuts out diverse voices and perspectives. Detractors argue
