HW Episode V - Fighting Bulge and Budget, Being Disagreeable

By


Part I.  Inspiration for the day-to-day fight 


Budget and Bulge are best fought with daily disciple. For some things you simply need to have the ability to grind every day and make things happen.   You either count calories or count points or fat grams, but in one way or another, you're counting something.  Budget is the same - counting all those dollars that come in and leave, temporary visitors to your checking account.

These things can be taxing. As part of the LifeSPARC process we talk about renewal. Using the small part of our brain that is called to fight for what is right vs. what is fun/yummy is a work in futility. Eventually we exhaust our fuel to do the right thing.

So, here's a some resources on how to get inspired, or Renewed, the 'R' in SPARC.


I love infographics even though they're fairly difficult to consume - hard to see on the screen and hard to print, but they're cool.


Section II - Tech 

We're all interested in what's coming next, or at least what's cool in the 'cool' crowd.   Tech Crunch has their Crunchies

Finally, don't think just because you're a person who's got HappyWisdom that you can't be inflexible.  Naturally nice people may need to learn this trait, but being unpleasant, or at least not caring what your network thinks of you, is a huge indicator of your potential for business success.


That is it for now!  Stay tuned for the next update on Happy Wisdom Wednesday!

Are you in a Dismal Nitch? How to know and how to get out!

Recently my family and I went to visit a place called Astoria, Oregon, and had a wonderful time. There was delightful breakfast place called Pigs 'n Pancakes. We stayed in the Astoria Riverside Inn, which was wonderful, with large rooms, game systems, and a wonderful view. Yet, most of all, we were surrounded by Lewis and Clark sites.  Are You Here?   If you're not aware, the Lewis and Clark expedition started in St. Louis in the early 1800s. Those two brave gentlemen and a party of more brave gentlemen and at least one woman, Sacagawea, made their trek all the way to the Pacific coast.  On their way out to the Pacific, however, they got stuck. They got stuck here: Now you have to understand, these guys were tough.  Stopping them wasn't easy.  Yet, so close to the ocean, they get stuck in this little outcropping.   Here's how he describes it: Rain soaked the expedition party that night, and it continued at intervals throughout...

HappyWisdom - Episode 2 - Movies, Teen Age Not So Crazy, and Go Hawks!

_____________HW Episode 2 _________________________ HW Section I  - Entertainment Movies make me happy. I retain a sense of awe when I watch them, similar to Jason Silva, who called the movie theater his last place he could get such an experience, at least for now. The actors don't so look happy, but seeing this trailer makes me happy.  Its amazing that they can make the Hulk and the god Thor look vulnerable somehow. Escaping into a good movie - that's a HW technique for certain.  ~~~~~ HW Section II - Science   From the science desk, here's one that might make parents and teens a bit happier.   Teen's aren't as crazy as we might give them credit for  Neuromyth #1:   Humans only use 10 percent of their brains . Neuromyth #2:    Eating sugary snacks results in hyperactivity and reduced focus and attention.   Neuromyth #3:   Hemispheric dominance (whether you are “left-brained” or “right-brained”) det...
