What will our new tagline be?
Why hello, and welcome back to the Thoughts that Bind. Now last time, we covered our tagline, “In pursuit of a better life”. If you haven’t read that post yet, I suggest that you do, because this one will be based on that.
Continue reading “What will our new tagline be?”The pursuit of a better life (the story behind our tagline)
Ever since the beginning of this blog, I’ve considered only one tagline: in pursuit of a better life. I plastered it on my site, even put it on a t-shirt. But now I’m starting to think maybe it’s time for a change. Let me explain.

Things that might help your anxiety
Many of us know ourselves to be predisposed to anxiety. We get nervous over what some might consider, “nothing” and life can be very difficult this way. Well this week we’re talking about some lifestyle changes that you can take on that may help you become more calm, cool and collected.

Oooh, confrontational title, right? What are we going to be saying today? Well, I think that we may be using social media in ways that are ultimately ruining our happiness.
Now, I know this is actually not a new subject. It’s not edgy for me to be saying this and it’s not going to garner a lot of surprise or disagreement, but I’m going to cover it anyway.

Recently on the Thoughts that Bind, we talked about beliefs, and more specifically, how to be free of the old limiting beliefs that weigh you down in life. And if that subject interests you, you should go read that post by clicking here.

That’s right, today we’re talking about coexisting with those who have different beliefs than you. The ups, downs and challenges that we face within this context are very important to address, especially following a conversation such as the one we’ve had about changing our beliefs. Because honestly, we should expect that there will be consequences to that.

Yes, you read that right! The Thoughts that Bind home office is packing up and moving cross county! My household has been preparing for this move for a while and while it’s still a little surreal, we are so excited to be navigating reality from a new location lens.

There are so many defining factors of you. Things that make you who you are, dictate how you act, and contribute to where you’re going to end up in life. And of course that’s the case. People are complex beings. You are a complex being. But I would argue that there’s one thing that pushes you the hardest down one path or another.
