Neither A Borrower…
by: Wayne and Tamara
Direct Answers - Column for the week of November 4, 2002
I moved from Los Angeles to Europe with my husband and children. My sister's husband left her with three children. She sent an e-mail today asking me to "give" her $1000 so her lawyer will continue representing her.
My sister already owes her lawyer $9000. She owes my other sister $5000, and she never talks about paying it back. She is trying to convince a judge she needs more money from her ex so she won't have to move. Her ex-husband has offered 65 percent of his paycheck, which is about $550 per week.
It sounds like a lot, but my sister has taken out second mortgages on her ho (read full article) |

7 Effective Ways To Set Your Goals In Motion Today
by: Caroline Jalango
1. Stop seeking approval from people.
You don’t need anyone’s permission to fulfill your dream. Trust yourself and give yourself permission to succeed. Having support from people whose opinion you value is a wonderful thing but it should not be the criterion for whether you begin acting on fulfilling your goals or not
If you really desire to turn your idea into reality, constantly floating it around and seeking the approval of people will waste your time and kill your dream. What will happen to your idea if you don’t get the approval of those whose permission you so desperately need? Nothing!

Are You At The Point Of No Return?
by: Caroline Jalango
There is a point at which everything becomes simple and there is no longer any question of choice, because all you have staked will be lost if you look back. Life’s point of no return.”
Dag Hammarskjold

It is at this time that you decide to overcome every obstacle in your path, push yourself hard and do whatever it takes to experience the success you have always desired!
This is the moment of action…the moment when you reach the point of no return!

Are you an ex-career woman living in a new country?
by: Caroline Jalango
Were you once a successful, professional woman who had a significant status level and received adequate remuneration for your work?
Have you re-located to a new country where the educational degree you worked so hard to achieve is neither recognized nor considered valid?
As a result, have you now settled for a job for which you are overqualified and living paycheck to paycheck?
If you once had a successful professional career and answered yes to the above, you probaby understand how frustrating it is, to be unable to practice your profession in a new country.
The decision to immigrate to another country is (read full article) |

The Bouncer (Turning Defeat into Victory)

From Spider’s Night on the Boom

I'm a pretty competitive guy, though I try to keep it in perspective. But there are times, often when I least expect it, when life teaches me lessons about the true nature of competition. One of those lessons came on a warm spring day several years ago, in a small town outside Portland, Oregon.
I used to love to watch the high school track team train—especially the distance runners. But that year, my eye was drawn to one girl in particular. Her running style was all wrong—she ran with her arms tucked close to her body, bouncing up and down in a way th (read full article) |

Hard Times Can Be Your Best Time
by: Jean Fritz
Do you have a dream, but are waiting for "just the right time" to start working toward fulfilling it? Will you feel comfortable pursuing your dream only when everything in your life is working? Consider this:
The apostle Paul did his best work while he was a prisoner.
Buckminster Fuller was bankrupt and suicidal when he envisioned the design for the geodesic dome.
Victor Frankl developed the philosophy and ideas espoused in Man's Search for Meaning while he was enslaved and awaiting death in a Nazi concentration camp.
Humans tend to be resistant to change. They are hardwired to live an "if it ain't broke, then don't fix it" life. Th (read full article) |

One Step at a Time in the Job Search
by: Marilyn Tellez
What is the first step to take in a job search?
Let's start with "Who Am I?" If the job seeker can answer that question easily, then the rest of what to do, comes easily.
It is often the hardest thing to do in a job quest, or anything else in life.
Answering this question cannot be answered by a recitation of job roles. Job roles are what a person did in a job; the tasks performed.
The "Who Am I?" question has to be answered by an analysis from the job seeker, of just who the person is. Is the job searcher riddled by anxiety? Then, it is wise to admit that being anxious is a part of the personality makeup. We are to (read full article) |

Guilt By Association & Wealth By It Too!
by: Rasheed Ali
"Tell me what company thou keepst, and I'll tell thee what thou art." - Miguel de Cervantes (1547 - 1616) Spanish novelist.
Growing up I often heard my best friend's father Nick say, "Show me who your friends are and I'll tell you what you are!"
Well, that was usually followed by a long speech about why his son Frank should not have hung out with certain people.
I was like a second son to Nick so I would get to listen in on Frank getting yelled at. By that time, I had already been homeless and off the streets and working my way through High School, so I never thought of hanging out with the types that Frank did. Of course I (read full article) |
