Comment on The "Gratitude Principle" by Be Grateful! – Principles of Sustainability

Be Grateful! – Principles of Sustainability — Mon, 02 Dec 2019 21:18:16 +0000

[…] Rabbi Harold Kushner once said, “If you concentrate on finding whatever is good in every situation, you will discover that your life will suddenly be filled with gratitude, a feeling that nurtures the soul.” I’ve read a lot about gratitude journals and have practiced one as well throughout the last few weeks. I’ve always considered myself a gracious person, but I’m now realizing I am grateful on a somewhat superficial level. Practicing the gratitude journal made me dig deep into what I am truly thankful and appreciative for and reflect on aspects of my life I don’t typically think of.

Comment on 8 Ways to Communicate with Men by Wade Mullins

1. Women want us men to listen and let them know we care.
2. They need to know we actually heard them so it is good to repeat what they said in the form of a question, like this, “what you are telling me is the new copier salesperson didn’t explain the lease agreement you signed for the new machine? What alternatives do you have?”

When I am talking with a man, I find it helpful when he listens to all I have to say then reflects back what he heard. Then I know he understood or did not understand. I can then clarify if he did not understand. I will also feel that he is listening to what I have to say. Eye contact is also very helpful in knowing I have his full attention.
That’s my two cents for what it’s worth!
Thanks,
Renee Anderson

In reply to Dr. Alan Zimmerman. Yeah, maybe, but you describe Lao Tzu as Sun Tzu. Lao Tzu was not a strategist. What are your sources?

You mix up the taoist sage Lao Tzu with the military strategist Sun Tzu. Who’s quote is this you refer to?

In reply to Chris. Chris: I'm delighted that these tips are helpful. And I find (like you) that writing them out myself and glancing at them once in a while cements them in my mind.

Thank you for this, this helped me so much when I was stressed out and I felt like nothing could get me up untill I found this. So I just HAD to write every single word of this into my notebook taking so many pages but it was worth it. Thank you
