Spiritual People Don ’ t Charge for Their Work 
Have you heard anyone proclaim that truly spiritual people don’t charge for their work? Apparently if you create something and charge money for it, the nonzero price alters the nature of the work, rendering it non-spiritual. Is that actually true? Of course it’s true. This rule is written into the Laws of Spirituality, not to be confused with the Laws of Acquisition. 😉 Okay, from one perspective it makes some sense, but only if you regard money as non-spiritual. Is money actually non-spiritual though? Which way you lean depends on how you define spirituality and how you perceive the role of money. W...

Money and Success Goals Are Social, Not Personal
One of the biggest traps is life is trying to achieve goals that only you will care about, such as making money or achieving success in your career. Yes, those kinds of goals can still create some ripples for others, but if your intention is mostly about you and your personal gains, I’d predict a lot of stuckness and stagnation for you. I fell into this trap as well. In my 20s I thought my goals were well-intentioned enough. I was trying to get my computer games business going, make some money, and have a nice life in the field of game development. I certainly wasn’t trying to hurt anyone. But I didn’t...

Nurse Practitioners and Physicians Behind the 8-Ball
On June 8, 2019, an article was published in the New York Times that clearly stated something I ' ve been thinking about for quite some time. The article was titled, "The Business of Health Care Depends on Exploiting Doctors and Nurses" , and the subtitle was "One resource seems infinite and free: the professionalism of caregivers" . It was written by Dr. Danielle Ofri, a physician at Bellevue Hospital in New York City.The article outlines the ways in which healthcare providers are exploited for their compassion and dedication to patients in terms of being asked to see more patients and do more work than is humanly possibl...

The Public Health To-Do List is Choking Doctors and Jeopardizing Patients ’ Lives
By HANS DUVEFELT, MD “By the way, Doc, why am I tired, what’s this lump and how do I get rid of my headaches?” Every patient encounter is a potential deadly disease, disastrous outcome, or even a malpractice suit. As clinicians, we need to have our wits about us as we continually are asked to sort the wheat from the chaff when patients unload their concerns, big and small, on us during our fifteen minute visits. But something is keeping us from listening to our patients with our full attention, and that something, in my opinion, is not doctor work but nurse work or even tasks for unlicensed staff: Our Publi...

Destressing Holiday Travel
“Over the meadow and through the woods. To Grandmother’s house we go…” It’s a wonderful, nostalgic song about traveling by sleigh to the grandparents’ house for the holidays. But make no mistake: The song and reality seldom matched. That sleigh ride in midwinter snow was cold! Bitterly cold. The horse could flounder in the drifts. The sleigh could get stuck or slip off the trail. Meanwhile the kids in the back were saying, “Are we there yet?” Travel these days should be easier, but it’s often not. The airports and train and bus stations are congested with weary and grouchy travelers. Car travel in s...

Defining True Self-Care
You're reading Defining True Self-Care, originally posted on Pick the Brain | Motivation and Self Improvement. If you're enjoying this, please visit our site for more inspirational articles. Once upon a time, the idea of self-care was a foreign concept. Then, it came into our consciousness and quickly pervaded our waking thoughts. Now, people point to everything they do for themselves as self-care. Doing so might be one incredibly broad way of looking at it, but it doesn't define what true self-care is. What Is Self-Care? In very general terms, self-care is an activity in which we take part to soothe our mental, p...

7 Ways Solo Travel Can Give You a Sense of Belonging
Last year, I set out to live one of my biggest dreams—to travel the world full time. As a writer and coach, I can work from anywhere, so I did and dedicated an entire year to seeking more joy. I thought I was traveling to check things off my bucket list and live as widely as possible. But I soon realized it was so much more than seeing the world—it was a quest for belonging. I was looking for a deeper connection and more meaning. Many of us are on a constant quest for belonging, searching for connection and struggling with feeling like we don’t fit in anywhere. This is when loneliness occurs. While I was traveling, ...
