#243 – “No Problem”

#242 – Know What You Are Looking For

One, two, three red cars…. When you are on the market for a red car, you start seeing them everywhere. It’s quite magic really, before you didn’t see any of them and then all of a sudden, they are everywhere. It’s like you turn on a switch in your mind that sets off...

Today’s my birthday and I ask myself if age matters. Maybe this is a question one asks when we reach a certain age ☺ As a young child, I used to think that people in their forties were old. As I am now in my forties, I no longer think that. Funny that eh? I’ve met...

Sounds like you are a Visual person, your husband is Auditory and your son Kinesthetic. This was coming from an auditory person – note he started the sentence with “Sounds like” ☺ We were talking about learning styles – Visual, Auditory and Kinesthetic (VAK) (1) and...

#235 – Family? What Does That Say To You?

When I say the word “family”, what do you think of? I think of my immediate family and my parents. Perhaps you think of something else, maybe you include your siblings (I have none), extended family, friends, a club you belong to or something else?  There are so many...
