MENTAL CONDITIONING WITH PLATO FOR THE LIFE WIN

November 30, 2021 by David Gillaspie

Mental conditioning and physical conditioning combine for the mind-body perfection of human beings. That’s the ideal according to Coach Plato, who was quite a combo on his own. The Athenian philosopher Plato (c.428-347 B.C.) is one of the most important figures of the Ancient Greek world and the entire history of Western thought. An important […]

RELATIONSHIP AWARENESS: KNOW WHO YOU’RE TALKING TO

October 23, 2021 by David Gillaspie

‘Relationship awareness’ sounds like a warning? Like a highway sign that says, “BUMPS?” If it doesn’t sound like a warning, maybe you’re not paying attention. Now is a good time to start, but start the right way.

FREEDOM MASK: WHAT HAVE YOU GOT TO LOSE?

October 14, 2021 by David Gillaspie

What’s a freedom mask? Is it the expression on a prisoner’s face on the way out of jail? The look married people have after the final decree is signed? Or is it a blue four-ply square with pleats that comes with loops that fit behind your ears? Since I’ve never been to jail overnight, just […]

SELF ESTEEM: TOO MUCH OR TOO LITTLE

October 8, 2021 by David Gillaspie

Self esteem is the last defense against doing something regrettable. If you’ve ever needed to build your self esteem, you know the risks. The early build up happens while kids travel the route from grade school, to junior high, high school, college, job, wife and kids. That’s one route. Call it the traditional route. There […]

DOING ‘MY RESEARCH’ FOR EXTRA CREDIT

October 3, 2021 by David Gillaspie

Hearing about people doing ‘my research’ gives me hope. Before making a big decision it’s best to know all you can about the possible outcomes, the likely effects, and how you would benefit. The problems start when the notion of doing anything extra, from reading, asking questions, to testing new knowledge, comes from people who […]

GOOD INTENTIONS START TOMORROW

September 30, 2021 by David Gillaspie

Why do good intentions pave the way to hell? Because of the follow up. More precise, it’s the lack of follow up. Say the right thing, then do the right thing and you stay out of hell. Does this sound right? Sounds like accountability to me. So why the gap between what is said and […]

THOUGHT CONTROL? FIRST FIND A BRAIN

September 1, 2021 by David Gillaspie

Thought control is an accusation slung by those who need you to agree with them. Based on their outlook and attitude, if you don’t agree it’s because you’ve been brainwashed. Like that’s a bad thing all the time. If you join the Army you get a good wash, learn to help others, at the same […]

CONSISTENCY HABIT? WHAT YOU DO IS WHO YOU ARE

August 21, 2021 by David Gillaspie

If a consistency habit sounds like one step away from living in a rut, then you’re doing it wrong. A rut, or living in a rut, is the hole you’ve been digging. When life said ‘Dig in’ you started and never stopped, never asked why. That’s a rut you’ve been plowing, my friends, and I’m […]

FEELING BAD? THINK OF OTHERS WHILE YOU SUFFER

August 11, 2021 by David Gillaspie

Feeling bad, as if it’s not enough, comes with extras, like those trying to help you feel better. Think of them while you’re in the throes of misery. Whether you know it or not, your suffering is their suffering. They feel better when you feel better. This came up at a recent gathering of some […]
