Friday Morning FYI – 10/30/2015

Welcome to your Friday Morning FYI – my chance to share observations/wisdom/rants in short, easily consumed form.

Last night I got the chance to see Trevor Hall live in NYC. I’ve been a fan of his for years, so when the spam email came in from bandsintown saying he was playing Irving Plaza, I took my wallet out so fast I almost lost a finger. It was a great show, and he even played and told the story behind my favorite song (Indigo) from the new album. In that spirit I’m going to keep it light this week and just drop a link to the song:

Friday Morning FYI – 10/23/2015

Welcome to your Friday Morning FYI – my chance to share observations/wisdom/rants in short, easily consumed form.

This week’s FYI is about the interpersonal dynamics associated with protecting yourself:

There’s a weird, Hollywood-created notion that implies the only way to be happy is to be vulnerable to the point of giving someone power of you. “You complete me.” “If you leave, I’ll die.” “My life would suck without you.” One of the biggest problems with this is how we expect everyone to act this way, and are stupefied when someone doesn’t.

Never be upset with someone for defending themselves, even if that defense takes the form of them walking away from you. When that happens, the problem is probably not with them.

Welcome to your Friday Morning FYI – my chance to share observations/wisdom/rants in short, easily consumed form.

This week’s FYI in about understanding how what you put out into the universe comes back to you:

If you’re interesting or project being interesting, you can’t really complain when others demonstrate interest.

Unless they’re a stalker. Then complain all you want.

Friday Morning FYI – 9/25/2015

Welcome to your Friday Morning FYI – my chance to share observations/wisdom/rants in short, easily consumed form.

This week’s FYI is about self-actualizing:

If you spend all your time waiting for something bad to happen, and then it does, step back and examine your part in that thing. Often, we are the agents of realizing our own worst fears.
