2024-01-2522 minActually, You Can72. Interested Over InterestingDo you ever worry that you’re not interesting enough to other people? Well, here’s the thing. It’s far more valuable to be interested in others than it is to strive to be interesting. Here are a few reasons why:
**1. Connection and rapport:** By focusing on others and their interests, you create a sense of connection and rapport. People appreciate genuine curiosity and openness. Asking questions, actively listening, and showing sincere interest in their lives makes them feel valued and heard. This fosters deeper relationships and builds trust.
**2. Learning and growth:** Being interested in others opens you up to new...
2024-01-1513 minActually, You Can71. The Stature of Our SystemsOne of the most fundamental truths we can ever learn in this world is this: "We do not rise to the level of our goals; we sink to the stature of our systems." - James Clear (author of Atomic Habits)
It is through our repeated actions (driven by our thoughts and accompanying emotions) that we can truly move the needle of progress and improvement in our lives. No one explains better how to improve habit formation that James Clear (trust me - I've read a lot of self-help books).
Another rather fascinating...

Psychiatrist Dr. Stephen Karpman articulated a paradigm called the Drama Triangle, in which he describes this very scenario. He seemed to notice this drama playing out, in varying magnitudes, in virtually every single one of his patients - and everyone else as well.
As we come to awareness of this dynamic, we can start to better understand the underpinnings to our default behaviors, and navigate more useful ways through life.

We sometimes feel a little gloomy when Christmas is over, but why is that? It's as if it's something that floats into our lives like a flock of birds, and then leaves.
As I've come to learn from a friend of mine, Christmas happens in our heads. It's not the day itself, or the weeks leading up to it. He knows because he celebrated it with his family a different day this year. And you know what? It felt exactly the...

They were no strangers to feeling vulnerable and inadequate. In fact, they would have known it more intimately than most.
So in this time of year where so many of us struggle to find our true worth, let us remember that with God, mortals can accomplish the impossible.
Through Christ, we become Mortals, with a capital M.

2023-12-2116 minActually, You Can65. CirclesHave you ever noticed that circle drawn around you? It's there, whether or not you can see it. These metaphorical circles represent the limitations we place on ourselves by our beliefs. We unwittingly draw these same circles around other people and it dictates how we interact with them.
But what if we abandoned them? What if we forgot all about these circles and their influence over our existence. That is precisely what my invitation to us all is. And let's watch as we're empowered to change the world!

What kinds of attitudes and behaviors would we need to prune in order to give heed to this most holy, and oft repeated invitation?
The bestowal of the most bountiful and generous promises God has ever extended are contingent on our becoming as little children. Wouldn't it make sense this would be the entire focus of our lives?

The sooner and more effective we are at navigating discomfort, the better we'll be able to attain our highest goals.

Circumstances are in the truth category. Our thoughts, however, while true for us, do not represent the greater reality. Because of this, our version of reality is always incomplete.
The good news is while we don't have control over most circumstances, we do have control over our thoughts.

2023-11-1510 minActually, You Can59. The Magic of BeingMy wellness pointed out something rather interesting this week. There are three words most of us tend to have mixed up:
Do Have Be
We're under the impression that if we "do" something, then we can "have" a certain result, and therefore "be" the person we want to be. It's as if we'll give ourselves permission to be the person we desire only after we've done something.
But we have it backwards.
The correct order is Be Do Have.

And with careful consideration, reflection, and faith, I was able to make that wish come true. This life is a grand experiment, in a way, where get to discover what we can accomplish with God's help - as well as experience what it's like to try and do it alone.

Some things are only known to Him, but it's clearly not supposed to be that way. I reflected recently on how all the temple blessings I enjoy are made possible by all of you. Yes, you. Anyone who's ever made that offering of faithful tithing has made temple blessings available. Anyone who has offered their time in the temple to officiate, who's helped to build them, and all the other things that go into it. The point is, you were willing. And...

The timescale required to produce these phenomena is so large, it's beyond the ability of our brains to truly comprehend. But that doesn't mean we shouldn't take time to honor and appreciate the processes required to produce the majesty before us. Our lives are always changing, little by little, one choice at a time. One thought at a time.

The Stake President declared, "Brethren, you need to learn how to pray." Part of me almost wondered, "Did I hear that right? Was it just implied I don't know how to do something I've been doing since before I was toilet trained?" Ultimately, I determined it could very well be true. And if it was, what had I been missing all this time? What commenced was a study of prayer like none other I've ever undertaken. I highly recommend...

Some people traveled hundreds of miles to position themselves optimally so they could experience 'totality'. The sun shining on earth could be compared with shining awareness onto our thoughts. Because our thoughts control our entire experience of this world, the absence of awareness is a complete disconnect. As we bring awareness to our thoughts, we can begin to improve and strengthen our relationships - the most important of all we forge here on earth.

The Anatomy of FearDoes it ever frustrate you that after all this time, after all you’ve been through and accomplished in your life, you’re still afraid of the dark? Let’s face it. We’re all afraid of something. Likely more than one thing. But it’s probably not useful, by and large. That is, allowing all our fears to prevent us from pursuing what excites us! An abundance of caution will keep us alive, absolutely. But most of the things we’re afraid of won’t kill us, and most will never happen anyway.
