Relationship to pain

Think about this our relationship to pain is largely determined by our beliefs about pain and suffering. When we believe that pain is permanent and debilitating, then it becomes permanently debilitating.So as the quote goes where the mind goes the body will follow.

Be positive and motivating and help bring up others around you instead of putting them down. Positivity is a movement we should all get behind.

Upset over the political situation heres the solution

Barry Ritholtz said it perfectly. A lot of people are really really mad about the current political situation. As I continue to stay as far away as possible from politics and the issues that can quickly arise with the smallest commentary about politics I will say just this from an economists stand point.

There may be social progress setbacks compared to the overall improvements we have endured over the last 8 years. If this is possibly the case then think about the financial benefits you may endure with the new political situation thanks to tax breaks and use that financial windfall to "follow your conscience in promoting" social progress issues and relations that you care deeply about.

Promote and be enthusiastic to help the causes you care about and make a difference in any way you can. Thats how we can grow as a country and as one.
