“As an introvert, you can be your own best friend or your worst enemy. The good news is we generally like our own company, a quality that extroverts often envy. We find comfort in solitude and know how to soothe ourselves. Even our willingness to look at ourselves critically is often helpful.But, we can go too far. We can hoard responsibility and overlook the role others play. We can kick ourselves when we're down. How many times have you felt lousy about something, only to get mad at yourself for feeling lousy?” KnowsLooksPlayFeelingsFeltQualityResponsibilityCompanyEnemyRolesKnow HowWorstComfortSolitudeNewsMadEnvyKicksHelpfulWillingnessIntrovertGood NewsWorst EnemyExtroverts Author:Laurie Helgoe
“The deeper purpose of a more positive attitude toward men is a better life for the children who are parented by the men who are their dads and stepdads; less shame for our sons who will become men; and, for our daughters, a deeper understanding of men's desire to please that leaves them feeling their willingness to please is not unrequited but returned - allowing our daughters to feel less lonely and more loved. If we earn more and love less, we pay for a home in which we do not live.” IfsMenFeelsChildrenFeelingsHomeDesirePurposeUnderstandingPayAttitudeHe ManSonDadPleaseDaughterLonelyAnd LoveShameDeeperPositive AttitudeWillingnessAllowingBetter LifeUnrequitedOur DaughterDeeper UnderstandingStepdads Author:Warren Farrell
“It is my feeling that as we grow older we should become not less radical but more so. I do not, of course, mean this in any political-party sense, but rather in a willingness to struggle for those things in which we passionately believe. Social activism and the struggle for social justice are often thought of as the natural activities of the young but not of the middle-aged or the elderly. In fact, I don't think this was ever true.” ThinkingShouldBelieveMeanFactsFeelingsYoungPoliticalCoursesSocialGrowsNaturalJusticePartyStruggleMiddleActivitySocial JusticeAgingActivismRadicalWillingnessPolitical PartiesElderlyMiddle AgedSocial Activism Author:Margaret Laurence
