It’s Time To Maximize Your Mindset!

May 2, 2016 By Michelle Matthews-Calloway Leave a Comment

Maximize Your Mindset

We just wrapped up the Vetting 101 series held weekdays on Facebook Live and Periscope.

Thanks to those of you who tuned in live or caught the replays.

If you missed it, don’t worry – we’re going to provide you the opportunity to obtain the videos, complete with worksheets – so stay tuned!

In the meantime, I’d like to invite you to join me weekdays Monday-Friday for our new series, Maximizing Your Mindset.

Defining Mindset

According to Dictionary.com, mindset is defined as, “A fixed mental attitude or disposition that predetermines a person’s responses to and interpretations of situations. An inclination or a habit.”

Whew!

I know that definition is a lot to swallow, especially when we consider the number of situations we each encounter in a single day.

And yet, our mindset – our “fixed mental attitude” – determines our responses and interpretations of those situations.

Do you believe life is great? Or, do you believe life sucks at worst or is “meh” at best? It’s all in your mindset.

Good or bad, let’s make sure our mindset in order, shall we?

To catch me on Facebook Live, click here.

You can also tune in on Periscope.

5 Steps To Take If You’re Feeling Lonely

December 28, 2015 By Michelle Matthews-Calloway Leave a Comment

shareasimageWhatDoTheLonelyDo

Are you feeling lonely or know someone who is?

In an audio excerpt derived from a Periscope recorded on Christmas Eve, I asked the question, “What do the lonely do at Christmas?”

I answered the question by sharing 5 steps that can make a difference in dealing with loneliness – whether from the lack of a relationship or the loss of a loved one.

(So, are you following me on Periscope yet? If not, what are you waiting for?)

I refer to Christmas in the audio, but these tips are good basically all year round.

If you’re feeling lonely, I encourage you to implement some of the tips.
