A Positive Psychology Response to Change
Introduction The age of the Unthinkable. The world we once knew is going away. We are in the eye of the storm of change. The industrial age that we knew has been taken over by the information age. This story will present a novel idea developed to help how we respond to such a radical shift and choose to embrace change rather than hate change. The impact of this radical change is affecting every aspect of our lives. The way we connect and spend time as families has been altered. The way we communicate with our friends is less intimate. Our jobs have changed. We had to adapt to new tools and technology. These new tools are incrementally increasing our job scope. Consequently, we are required to learn new skill sets to keep up with the new technology and evolving job roles. The trajectory and future of the world we know is becoming more and more uncertain and unpredictable. What kind of world will our children and grandchildren experience? Are we destroying the world? Will technology destroy the human race? How should I attempt to make sense of all the change that is happening around me? These are some questions that many of us are asking.

So Long, Fam
1/8/2021 Title: So Long, Fam Always leaving you behind Written by: Kathy Reed Why do we keep it, why do we keep us In the moment why do we hope, only, "this will be over soon". In everything we do. We know that the hollow shadow only sucks the soul out of us. Yet the only other way is entirely a black hole itself. I know that when I leave to go do photography the winds hollow around me and suck at me as I try to snap the lanes. It's like my pony tail is always too tight. This is my life. I try to become, only to becan'T. I blink as I think back to, my apartment, see you in four hours.

New Year, New Chapter
It’s a new year, a new chapter in life. Everyone has made resolutions and is trying to stick to them. Every year most fail at these resolutions. But fresh starts are needed. My fresh start included my family moving 900 miles away from everything we knew and everyone we knew.

Stop Procrastinating:
Sometimes, when you sit down to write you can feel like you don't have anything to say, or you can't think of anything that would be worth reading. So, you procrastinate instead and fill your time with other things. A lot of people who are writers do this, and while it's normal, if you don't try to at least write something and stop procrastinating, you aren't going to have any work to show.

10 Quotes To Encourage You To Seize Your Opportunities
Are you in a period of life where you feel like you're not getting anywhere, you have no real direction for the future, you're perhaps stuck in a rut, or you're basically unhappy, unsatisfied, and unfulfilled with your life? Do you feel like you never seem to be making much, or any, progression toward your goals? It would be fair to say that most of us feel in such a way. Life feels like it's just passing us by, especially when our work is constantly busy, and consuming much of our time. Then there's our family to look after, and other personal commitments to honor, making our whole life seem like there's never any time left over to be doing something for ourselves. Before we know it, life has passed us by, as we head into our senior years with very little achievement, success, and accomplishment, to speak of. We feel like we have wasted our life. By then, what once were our goals and aspirations, have become nothing more than missed opportunities, leaving us with a hollow feeling of regret. So why is this normality for so many people worldwide? Simple! It's a classic case of not having taken opportunities when they were there. We either seem to completely ignore the opportunities presented to us, because we are too wrapped up in our everyday life, or perhaps we are too blind to recognize the opportunities, or maybe we are too lazy to proceed with the opportunities, or it could be a case of being fearful of seizing the opportunities, because they perhaps involve risk, change, and/or stepping out of our comfort zone. We are solely responsible to blame for failing to take the opportunities when they were there to take, meaning that we are responsible for the unhappiness and dissatisfaction we are experiencing in life, no matter how much we like to pass the blame on other people, or circumstances.

Triangle of Life
Living a life of purpose means being on the toes to attain the desired value out of your time and efforts. Whatever you desire depends on how you plan to achieve it and not on the absolute nature of the task. One can achieve a very challenging task with accurate planning and miss a straightforward task when no plan is in place.
