Tings and Things

Do you remember that song when we were kids “ Have patience, have patience, don ’ t be in such a hurry?” We don ’ t know why that didn ’ t translate to adulthood but it didn ’ t. Sometimes it is okay to be in second gear 

Your boys are well versed in this long-distance ting and it is becoming more of a reality for us in the world today. How do you navigate the distance between you and your loved one, and make sure you keep the flame burning. 

As people, we can be rather judgmental and somewhat critical of others. As people that do some stupid things, it is tough to bite your tongue when you see muppetry occurring out here. As you are biting your tongue, let’s unpack what should help to keep you there.

Funny how life changes and evolves as we get older. So much of our formative years were spent on finding the right answer to questions that are irrelevant. As we get further along we have found out that life is about asking the right questions. 

Yes, if you are behaving in a very toxic manner, you might be sending out a vibe that draws in those on the same wavelength. But that ’ s not always true. You might not be a “ toxic person” in general. You might just be doing something toxic, without realizing it. As experts in this field, we want to unpack how to be a better person and leave the toxic ways behind

Maintaining deep and long-lasting friendships is tough. What does being a true friend look like and how can you be the friend that people have always wanted to have?

Sometimes we feel like self-care is broken and to a certain extent, it is true. We constantly need to assess our self-care and ask if it is working for us. It is important to interrogate this to make sure that our self-care actually works for us. Let us unpack it.

 Fizzling does not take place between two people in a committed, loving relationship. It takes place between two people who are together under unclear terms. They can't properly break up, because they don't have anything to break. Instead, one person in the fling begins to fade out of the relationship as casually as he or she stumbled into it.

This may be a sticky one, but this is what we do. As a reality tv generation that has grown up on social media, we have been programmed to argue on the internet and involve ourselves in things. Hey, we are guilty of it too you know, but let’s talk about it. 

Knowing when to run for the hills is an important quality each one of us should possess. It is imperative to understand when a situation no longer serves you and as people that have had to walk away.

The past two years have been a movie for us all. Things have affected us all in different ways from the zoom life to staying in the house for weeks on end, masks and let’s not forget the hand sanitizer. With that being said we learned a lot. 

Restlessness is something that we have both struggled with significantly. It manifests itself in a number of different ways. Not saying we are over it, it’s kinda something we actively work through every day but hey, let’s talk about it.

Toxicity is a real thing and it's something we all do, whether consciously or unconsciously. Quite often, it’s our little, harmful routines that break our success, not the lack of good ones. We wanted to unpack some things that we used to do and some that we are still working on and hopefully it will help you make some positive changes in your life.
