here’s a win and a lesson for us all: nytimes.com/athletic/64943…

as you may know the emotional calendar you keep is dynamic and filled with personal traditions. you can nurture those that serve you and can cut away those that don’t.

i love June and it’s the Summer Solstice! let’s find our way to celebrate, everybody. weather.gov/abq/clifeature…

my usual support for us all in early springtime everybody… self.com/story/spring-a…

It’s the Spring Equinox—time to check in with your emotional rhythm. Early spring brings a restless energy, a sense of change that might feel a little chaotic at first. Embrace the shift! Channel your excitement with focus, and step forward with confidence into renewal, growth, and fresh possibilities. #emotionalcalendar

really staying in contact with friends matters. being connected is good for all and promotes health and well-being (psychiatrists often state the obvious, which otherwise might have gone unsaid) pewresearch.org/social-trends/…

oh and why is #TheVoice SO great? perhaps the talent… the drama… the production value… the joy… it really does connect emotionally, as they themselves say, and imho i feel that is why!

happy early fall everybody - huge and about to be really colorful/wonderful in the #emotionalcalendar

Make big wins (in connectedness and self-confidence) starting with small talk. Thank you @allieevolpe for this: vox.com/even-better/24…

how would you define your personality? here are the ‘Big Five’ dimensions to consider… bigthink.com/surprising-sci… are your besties like you are in these ways? i find that question interesting to consider. if ‘birds of a feather flock together’ for you, then how so? #LiveandLearn

hey hey Dec 21th - it’s the winter solstice - a classic waypoint on our journey through the year. what’s most important though is what’s on the emotional calendar you keep personally. i could write a whole book on that 😉. anyway let’s honor today: space.com/winter-solstice

wake up all early risers, you may need to thank your Neanderthal DNA. wait, actually i have become an early riser too though… smithsonianmag.com/smart-news/nea…

word of the year? it’s ‘rizz’ (short for charisma) npr.org/2023/12/04/121…

i say ‘do happiness.’ in other words we need to find or create even somewhat small ‘happiness shorts’ so that we can stay more up than down and count the win. it’s doable. axios.com/2023/12/05/wha…
