Coping with Loneliness
Tips 1. Get Occupied Even if it’s simply going to a park, it beats sitting in the house where you can think of negative things the most. If you can’t drive anywhere at the moment, watch a series that can get your negative thoughts out of your mind and on to the plot. Try hobbies like reading or even blogging. 2. Pursue Passions Believe it or not, this time alone is a great time to go after everything you want to do in your life. Try things you never thought you would succeed at. Have you ever thought about being a dancer or actress? Try different side gigs out. You…

Life As An Introvert
Personal Experience Based Psychology was my major in undergrad, and I found the topic “introvert” to be extremely interesting. This blog post on introverts is coming from my own life experiences as an introvert. I feel as though getting a personal understanding of this personality trait will give you more of an inside perspective of what it is like to be one. Hopefully, it will also help you determine if you too may carry this personality trait. Yes, you may find other sites that give you the breakdown of an introverted personality, but this blog breaks down numerous categories on this topic from development to adaptation along with a personal…

Life as an Only Child
One would think as an only child, I would be a spoiled brat, right? That couldn’t be further from the truth.” What is the best way to learn how the life as an only child is than from an only child like myself? Preference of Small Circles As an only child, I didn’t experience the constant differing personalities from siblings. I was more in tune with myself; therefore, I only got accustomed to my own personality. Over time, I realized that juggling so many different personalities in school was overwhelming. I wasn’t used to being around others in my age group that were different from me. At home, it would…

Dealing with Negative Life Experiences | How to Cope
Reduce Impact The keys to reducing your amount of stress from negative life experiences are prevention and a more mature reaction. What does prevention do? It creates more of a probability that you won’t go through the same problems as often in the future or creates a less likely chance that you will freak out as badly about it the next time it happens. I didn’t say completely eliminate the issues…well because it’s life. We’re going to have some of the same problems happen over and over again, but you can learn to handle it better the next time it happens. Prevention strategies can be learned to take some control…

Is Potential Really Good Enough? (Men and Women)
People who are not ready for anything serious in life tend to be smooth talkers. They make excuse after excuse to extend the wait time. Here are some things to think about when it comes to this potentially better person. Do You Know For Sure? Have they spoken of goals to you or do you just think they have potential? If they have not spoken of goals nor have they performed steps actively to achieve any goals, then they probably have none and do not see goals as a priority in their life. Don’t be fooled by someone potentially looking as if they can be better when they don’t even…

Fighting for His Attention?
First of all, a real man knows his role and will have no problem being in this role for a woman he wants. It’s simply not a woman’s place to chase after a man. If you find yourself chasing a man, he is not that interested in you. A man has to be fully interested to fully pursue a woman. If he’s not, then it’s not meant at that moment or not meant at all. Read on to see the negative effects chasing a man will have on you. Makes You Feel Lonely/Unloved When you’re so focused and dedicated to trying to persuade this person to care about you, you…

How to Conquer Self-Improvement
Only Accept What You Deserve When it comes to your desires, accept nothing less. Only tolerate what amounts to your worth. This goes for anyone or anything in life. If your significant other is not doing what you ask of ever then maybe he/she shouldn’t be your significant other. If your job is treating you as if you don’t have a degree when you certainly have one, then maybe it’s not the place for you to work. Work On Your Flaws These could be flaws you know about or what someone else has noticed about you. Take some time to think to yourself about if the flaws other people notice…

Signs He Isn’t Talking to You for the Right Reasons
Um….“I Had To Do It!” (in my Nicki Minaj’s voice) Let’s get to it! The truth is ugly sometimes, but wouldn’t you rather live in honesty rather than lies? Your entire life will be more peaceful when you lower your tolerance for the nonsense, and that’s facts! Disrespectful Approach Look at how he comes up to you. I have had men come up to me and look at me like something to eat while asking for my number at the same time. How disrespectful is that? If they cannot ask you to get to know you in a respectful manner, they have no morals. They do not even care how…

How to Tame a Toddler with a Strong Personality
So, when I used to work at a hotel and resort while I was pregnant, this kind woman came up to me at the desk and asked me if I was having a girl. After shockingly telling her that I was expecting a girl, she told me that my daughter already had a strong personality in the womb! Of course, I couldn’t experience it and know for sure until she was born. Omg, when I tell you that this girl is so strong willed, you will think that that woman was some type of psychic. She could have been someone sent from God to be honest though…who knows. Here are…
