    This week, to paraphrase The Beatles, "life is a long and winding road." In other words, we may have a good idea of where we'd like to go (or maybe not!), but the way we get to that desination very rarely follows the path we first imagined.

    On the show this week, a good discussion of taking charge of your own life, following whatever path you choose, and maybe even doing some stuff along the way that scares you!

    Along those lines, we talk about a recent Instagram post from popular author and personal development speaker Mel Robbins. It's all about finding the courage to do those scary things, and hopefull have fun along the way.

    This week, a little bit more on the great conversation we started last week on "gratitude." There's plenty to talk about on the subject for sure.

    Also this week, a discussion on a new post we found, called "How to walk the path of “everyday enlightenment.” Hint: It's a lot easier than you might think... Second hint, it's not so much about hours of meditation... it's more about your daily actions.

    Thanks again for joining us!

    This week - a nice, refreshing, deep dive into Gratitude. Whaat starts out as Bill's new idea to have a "moment of gratitude" at the beginning of each episode turns into a full hour's disucssion of the topic...

    It's all about spreading good vibes or energies (whatever you choose to call it) around yourself, your family, community, and the entire planet (universe?). No matter how you slice it, there's plenty of good t come from an attitude of gratitude. Also, just for fun, Bill asks ChatGPT - an artificial intelligence app - for more info and "thoughts" on gratitude, and the results were - to put it mildly - mind-blowing!

    Thanks again for joining us!

    This week... a really, REALLY good discussion and deep-dive, prompted by an Instagram post talking about how to determine if you are living with a "wounded" inner child. Spoiler Alert: You very likely are. Why? We've all had some "interesting" early-life experiences. Where they all bad or negative? No, but we all have some "recovery" to do.

    Listen in for the signs of an inner child that needs love and care, and of course some great ideas, tools and concepts of what you can do to help yourself become a better YOU.

    Thanks again for joining us!

    This week, we should call it the "Grattitude Episode." It didn't start out that way, but once the conversation gets rolling, that's exactly what it turned out to be!

    It all starts with talk about a mutual friend of Bill and Vicki, and how a recent "milestone" birthday caused a bit of depression. Sounds strange, but when you hear the full story, you'll understand. Maybe it's happened to you, too? Seeing the years go by, perhaps losing family and friends.

    That's how we get to gratitude. While "love" can be a challenging thing to focus on for some, because perhaps of different love-related experiences and relationships, gratitude seems a bit more universal, perhaps easier to embrace. Bill and Vicki talk about how to generate more gratitude in life, and some of the experts that have helped shape our mindset about it.

    Thanks again for joining us!

    First, "7 'old people' sayings that are actually solid life advice at every age." Timeless wisdom, as they say. Find it here: https://www.upworthy.com/7-old-people-sayings-ex1. And thanks to author Annie Reneau for this one.

    Also, Training Your Brain to Get What You Want in Life. Big idea, yes? Do you know - really know - what you want in life? See more here: https://www.inc.com/benjamin-p-hardy/how-to-train-your-brain-to-get-what-you-want-in-60.html. And for this one, thanks go out to author Ben P. Hardy and the Inc. Magazine site.

    This week, as Bill continues his recovery from eye surgery, there's a good discussin of "patience." Funny how we can suggest it to our friends and family, but when it's our turn to demonstrate some, things can get a little wonky!

    Also this week, and perhaps related to the "patience" talk, a bigger discussion on the power of foregiveness. Not just any kind of foregiveness, but the really important kind, the kind we give to ourselves.

    Thanks again for joining us!

    This week, Bill and Vicki talk about one of the best "cliche" lines of all time, at least in the world of personal development: "It is what it is." Crazy how one simple idea can cover so much ground, and how frustrating it can be when put to work in real life. Still, "it is what it is" is a - we hope! - useful idea for thinking about the ups and downs of life.

    Also this week, a review of a great blog post from Self.com on procrastination. Do you put things off? Yeah, we do to. We've got some simple tips on overcoming and dealing with procrastination. Don't wait on this one... do it now! (grin)

    By the way, we always want to give credit where credit is due. Here's the link to the full post on proscrastination. Thanks to auhtor Anna Borges. Here's the link: https://www.self.com/story/how-to-stop-procrastinating
