September 30, 2009 6So I was meeting with a client over the course of the last week, and we ended up talking a bit about boundaries and how to apply them to her life. Much of the conversation had to do with how to set boundaries with family members and people she loves, which feels something like trying [...]
Recently Jonathan Fields did a blog post entitled: Does Learning Have To Suck? In case you haven’t read it, do yourself a favor and go check it out. I wanted to comment on it, but after some consideration, realized I had more to say about it than I thought. So, you get what you have here.
Now I [...]

September 17, 2009 0So I met with a clinician that I respect and admire, as she’s been in the business longer than I have, and has a ton of insight into the issues of today. You know what we talked about?

August 16, 2009 0If you can’t control your crap, then you shouldn’t be in a relationship. In my opinion, there’s no excuse for cheating. Plain and simple. This isn’t the first time I’ve said this. My previous post: Life is Short, Have an Affair?, I go off on a tangent about a site that allows you to do this [...]

July 20, 2009 1One day I was going to go hang out with a friend of mine, and I was fuming mad. I think my wife had said something to me, and then full circle, told me that she wanted the exact opposite (you guys out there probably know what I mean) or something like that. So I [...]
I have a confession to make: I work weird hours. I work when other people don’t, which means that I eat breakfast at about noon, lunch at 4pm, and dinner around 9-10pm. This is actually a good thing, because I hit the slow hours at various restaurants and shops. There just so happens to be [...]

July 13, 2009 2OK, so I’m totally going to cop out today and post my interview from Stop and Think Radio & TV, because I could write about this all I want, but I think its nice to do a visual thing every now and then. I think internet addiction is becoming more and more widespread as time [...]
