WORD with Dr. Michael David Clay

"Gen-exer;" "Millennials;" and "Boomers" are ALL labels, but is there anything ARCHETYPICAL to be said for such? Likely not! As much PERSONALITY is descriptive, it's not IMMUTABLE. What is IMMUTABLE comes down to what makes us ALL human; OUR HUMANITY!

Divergency of thought, as well processing is indeed the IDEAL. Complementary Cognition is elementally adaptive and captures the way the EXPLORATIVE and EXPLOITATIVE may live in true harmony. Reach out to Us; 304-523-WOD (9673); TheWORDHouse@Frontier. Com ; or TheWORDHouse. Com.

Reflection Pools are great, except when YOU don't like what you see. Narcissism is a human trait. Those who learn to adjust self-perception with REALITY succeed at the highest state of existence, SELF-LOVE. Don't RUN from yourself, LEARN to overcome it!

"I would do anything for LOVE, but I won't do that . . . ." So goes the lyrics to the song of the same name. But would we? When you fail to realize loving others requires you to love yourself, you also fail at LOVE. The greatest sacrifice is recognizing you that you REALLY want to KILL, and then stop killing others.

What's wrong with OWNING it? Nothing! Just make sure WHAT you possess is WHAT it truly is. Subjectivity, although factual, is IMCOMPLETE. Getting the BIG PICTURE, requires one move into the territory of the "Fourth Dimension," or risk not only lesser, but ultimately SICKER.

Continuing with the podcast series, Psychology Today asks and answers (we offer commentary) such parental concerns as: "What does this mean for my child's mental health?; Does this mean my child will need surgery?; Do we have to start hormones right away?; What if my child changes their mind or has regrets?; Is it OK if I feel sad or confused?; When Should I tell my child's school or our family an...

What Causes This? Is It Just a Phase? Why Now? Questions "Parents of Transkids Want to Know," as culled by Psychology Today (October 2022). As much, the ANSWERS are indeed complex, if at all immediately available, there is also the question of what ALL of this would mean for the future.

"What did I do?" As much there's no single answer, there is always a part to play. Rather than uniformly blaming SELF or others, let's at least try to address the presenting concern soundly and scientifically, lest we end up hurting EVERYONE!

"Phubbing" is a polite way of saying, STOP being so self-absorbed. Already too much at risk of becoming so much the INDIVIDUAL, have we forgotten our essential NATURE is "pro-social."

What is an OPTIMIST? Possibly nothing greater than a PESSIMIST in disguise. Science and REALSIM go hand in hand.

Exchanges of ideas begin with sound COMMUNICATION, and depending upon the QUALITY of the COMMUNICATION, a solid working relationship. EMPIRICISM ensures there's NEVER a problem without answer, as long one ACCEPTS the BEST ANSWER SCIENCE affords.
