How to Stop Procrastinating and Start Accomplishing

How to Stop Procrastinating and Start AccomplishingLet’s be honest—we all procrastinate. Some of us might put off overcoming an unhealthy habit that we’ve struggled with for years; and others of us may have a long list of work projects on our desk that never seem to get done.

Instead of doing it today, we put it off until tomorrow. But when tomorrow comes, we don’t do it. Tomorrow turns into next week, next month, and—eventually—never.

Sound familiar? Is there a way you can stop procrastinating and start accomplishing? Yes. First, discover why you put things off.

People tend to procrastinate for three reasons: [Read more…]

Depression and Addiction: What’s the Connection?

Depression and Addiction: What’s the ConnectionDo you struggle with depression? Have you tried to ignore it, hoping it will go away? According to the National Institute on Drug Abuse, having depression makes you twice as likely to have a drug or alcohol addiction compared to someone who does not have depression. When depressed, you may turn to drugs or alcohol to self-medicate. Once it wears off and the feelings of despair return, you may increase your drug or alcohol use—this is where addiction takes root.

It is possible to get out of the pit of depression, despair, and addiction. Recognize what depression looks like. Identify the common signs of drug and alcohol addiction. Then, seek a treatment plan that works.

Doing This One Thing Will Ruin Your Marriage

Doing This One Thing Will Ruin Your MarriageYou may think it’s okay to talk to your spouse like this:

  • “You’re too sensitive!“
  • “Don’t eat that!“
  • “You’re so messy; get your act together!“

You may even think you’re doing them a favor by pointing out what they need to do to improve. But this is criticism, and it will ruin your marriage. After all, no one likes to be criticized. When you criticize your spouse, it will only make them defensive. Instead, give up criticizing—it might just save your marriage!

The next time you find yourself putting your spouse down or suggesting something they can improve upon, why not find something you admire, or are grateful for, in him or her—it could just transform your relationship! [Read more…]

Are You In A Relationship Dictatorship?In the book Take Your Life Back, there’s a concept we call relational dictatorship. Some of you need to take your life back from a relational dictator who thinks they know what is best for you. Either a wife or a husband can be a dictator. Sometimes a parent can still be the dictator; and their adult child (which is an apt description) can be married with children of their own, but they’re locked into their own childhood by the parent who won’t let go and allow them to individuate into a full-fledged adult.

What happens when we’re in a relational dictatorship? We’re stunted in our growth as a person, and we’re ruled by our emotions. There’s nothing wrong with emotions, but they’re not meant to rule our lives. Why? Because when we’re ruled by our emotions, we’re living a reactive lifestyle and we’re reacting to the dictator.
