Self help, because you are your greatest asset.
A Stranger's Assurance
When I started my job before the pandemic in 2020, I remember being extremely nervous about some of the nuances that came with the role. The job itself was fairly straightforward in nature. But, there were some elements to it that I wasn’t one hundred percent on. One of which was the impressively large copy machine they had in the mail room. I had used other ones in the past but this one was much different and I hadn’t gotten a chance to learn a little about how it works in case someone needed something from that machine and I was the only one around in that moment. Well, not to far after I started, maybe a week or so, it was a weekend evening, a little over halfway through my shift, when a gentleman comes in with some papers in his hand. He greeted me with a big smile and asked me if I could get a couple copies of the paper’s he brought with him. At the time, that was my biggest worry; not so much the copy process, but in general, not having the answers for someone in a hastily fashion. So, I clamed up super hard, and began to freak out. I told him I wasn’t proficient with the copier we have. He looked at me and simply told me that’s okay, let’s go to the machine and you can give it a try, because he wasn’t sure how to do it himself either.

Living the Life you Want
If you don’t like the way life is going change it, is what I tell myself when I feel like life is not going how I want it to go; you have the ability to make life any way you want, all you have to do is believe and work hard enough that people’s opinions won’t matter. Life is too short to live how other people want you to live, is something else that is always said to people when they feel like society is forcing them t live a certain way. Nothing in this world is worth your happiness including false validation from a society that cares so little about you; these people would rather see you fall than lift you up and help you on your life’s journey. There are steps that you can take to live the life that you want and be more independent from the shackles of society and their written and unwritten rules that they feel people have to follow in order to be accepted. Step one is to give up the idea that society cares about you or what you think, the next step is to start doing things that make you more comfortable with who you are as a person, and finally, just give up caring about what people think.

Leatherface and the Guacamole
Leatherface and the Guacamole Cheri Allen Growing up we didn’t have a lot. We weren’t exactly impoverished but we weren’t wealthy either. My dad was a mechanic and for the most part mom stayed home with us kids. It’s funny but I feel like I don’t have as many memories of my childhood as I should. What memories I do have seem to center on food; or at least features eating.

Getting Out of My Own Way, Part One
I felt it would be appropriate to have my first entry focus on “getting out of my own way” because this website is a physical manifestation of just that. I read the book, Get Out of Your Own Way (GOOTOW) by Mark Goulston, M.D. and Philip Goldberg, in preparation. Goulston and Goldberg dissect 40 different ways people self-defeat, and I resonated with an embarrassing amount of those 40. Instead of taking you on a journey of every way I utilize self-defeating behavior, I’m going to talk about eight of them (in two parts) that apply to my writing.

Understanding Your Own Paradigm
Perception: The Most Powerful Force That Rules Our Life Perception: The Lens Through We see the world The lens through which we see the world is known as our perception. The perception we hold is the most important and powerful thing in our life. It shapes the way we think. Our thinking determines our actions. Our action becomes our attitude, behavior, and habits. In a word, our perception is behind our all thinking, actions, attitudes, behaviors and habits. If our perception is wrong, all other subsequent activities and decisions associated with those will also be wrong. It can be compared with a Map. If we wrongly choose a mag, we can never be able to reach the correct destination.
