Word for the Day: Saturday, October 17, 2020

The Word for Today (Saturday) is Acknowledgement.  Patronage is a form of Acknowledgement.   Also, we Acknowledge Patrons.   In addition, I Acknowledge those who help me in my lifetime.   Finally, remember that it takes Knowledge to Acknowledge.

Word for the Day: Friday, October 16, 2020

The Word for Today (Friday) is Kindness.   A Kind Patron?   (I hope!)  But Kindness is one of my Favorite Words, because Kindness helps the World go around.  It is, not only something to look for, but something to be.

Thursday, October 15, 2020

Word for the Day: Thursday, October 15, 2020

The Word for Today (Thursday) is Encouragement.   Encouragement from Patrons?  Encouraging Patrons?   (Works in both directions).  One thing to consider:  It takes Courage to Encourage.

Wednesday, October 14, 2020

Word for the Day: Wednesday, October 14, 2020

The Word for Today (Wednesday) is Thoughtfulness.  Absorbed in Thought?   Thinking, before you Speak or Act?  That would allow you to draw on, what is around you.  The Results?  One Completed Transaction or Project.  This works!

Tuesday, October 13, 2020

Word for the Day: Tuesday, October 13, 2020

The Word for Today (Tuesday) is Support.   And Patronage is a form of Support.   And I guess it can work the other way:  Support the Patrons.   But Support works in other ways also:   Look for your own Support Group.  They are out there to Support you, some Physical and some Spiritual.   Finally, Support having fun!

Monday, October 12, 2020

Word for the Day: Monday, October 12, 2020

The Word for Today (Monday) is Comfort.  A Comfortable Patron?   (The Happiest kind).   Now Comfort is something you have some control over.  Not all, especially if you are visiting somebody else, and have to contend with their choice of Location.   But you can certainly pick the Furniture you will get for your Home.  Also, a tidy place is, usually a more Comfortable place.  And you will be more popular, if you maintain a Comfortable place to visit.

Word for the Day: Sunday, October 11, 2020

The Word for Today (Sunday) is Nourishment.   Patron of places that provide Nourishment?  Restaurants, for example?   Well, there are worse places to be a Patron of.  Not a long definition this time. 

Sunday, October 11, 2020

Weekly Theme: Week of October 11-17, 2020

The Theme for this Week is Patronage.  Definition of Patron:  "a person who gives financial or other support to a person, organization, cause, or activity".   That's quite a Relationship.  Let's see how this develops, this week.

Saturday, October 10, 2020

Word for the Day: Saturday, October 10, 2020

The Word for Today (Saturday) is Prosperity.  Prosperous Principles?   Ethical Prosperity?  (Both sound good to me).  So what  *is* Ethical Prosperity?   Perhaps the easiest thing would be to look at some Unethical ways to get Prosperous, such as Robbing Banks.  An Ethical way would be a good Career.   In the middle are ways, such as Inheriting the Prosperity.

Friday, October 9, 2020

Word for the Day: Friday, October 9, 2020

The Word for Today (Friday) is Liberation.   Liberation from, actually  *having*  Principles or Ethics?  (Please No!)   But you can Ethically Liberate those, who seem stuck.  If someone asks for help and you know a way out of their box, disclose it!  Off hand at first, and then give the details, which can make this be, even a profitable business endeavor.  But it starts with that first thought.

Thursday, October 8, 2020

Word for the Day: Thursday, October 8, 2020

The Word for Today (Thursday) is Wisdom.  A Wise set of Principles?   A Wise Code of Ethics?   (The Best Kind for Both!)  So how does one develop and maintain Wisdom?  Some mention certain Book Sets, which  DOES help.  Also, certain Seminars and/or Conferences can help.  But don't forget the old standby:   Good old Life Experience.  In my opinion, that counts, perhaps most of all!

Wednesday, October 7, 2020

Word for the Day: Wednesday, October 7, 2020

The Word for Today (Wednesday) is Impartiality.   An Impartial Code of Ethics?   (Not sure how that would even work!)  In my opinion, Impartiality is hard to achieve, even (maybe especially) in a place where people look for it:  The News Industry.  But one of your Principles can, certainly be to attempt Impartiality in your life.

Tuesday, October 6, 2020

Word for the Day: Tuesday, October 6, 2020

The Word for Today (Tuesday) is Consequence.   So, are there Consequences to having your own set of Principles, as well as your own Code of Ethics?  (Of course!)  But I submit that the Consequences are a  *lot*  more Severe, for someone who refuses to take responsibility for their Principles and Ethics.   These people may, for example, turn both of these over to "God",  or some other "Higher Power"  (maybe Political).  But remember that you are the only one who can live your Life.  You must be Responsible in the end.

Monday, October 5, 2020

Word for the Day: Monday, October 5, 2020

The Word for Today (Monday) is Elimination.  Eliminating Principles and Ethics?  (Please, No!)   But Ethically Eliminating what doesn't work in your Life could be Quite Beneficial.   Sounds like it's time for me to clean my Apartment!

Sunday, October 4, 2020

Word for the Day: Sunday, October 4, 2020

The Word for Today (Sunday) is Self-Reliance.   Self-Reliant Principles and Ethics?   (Sure!)  Now Self-Reliance is good, but remember that we are  *not* alone!  Keep other people in mind.

Weekly Themes: Week of October 4-10, 2020

The Themes for this Week are Principles and Ethics.   Do you have your own Code of Ethics?  Or do you  "borrow" one, say, from the Bible?  Some people suggest that the second way is the only way to go.   But think about this:  Your life is yours to live, and you are, fully in charge.   An alternative way to look at this:  If something goes wrong, who is considered Responsible?  So take charge of your Life.

Saturday, October 3, 2020

Word for the Day: Saturday, October 3, 2020

The Word for Today (Saturday) is Expansion.  Now I am somewhat selective about this Word.  For example, Spiritual Expansion can be Awesome.   But Expansion around the Middle, due to an overdose of  "delicious food" has side effects.  Be Careful!

Friday, October 2, 2020

Words for the Day: Friday, October 2, 2020

The Words for Today (Friday) are Trust and Faith.   Salvaging Trust, so that we can have Faith in our Salvation?   (I Tried!)  But, when  "ordinary Humans"  are involved, be careful, because Trust must be Earned, and Faith should not be Blind.

Thursday, October 1, 2020

Word for the Day: Thursday, October 1, 2020

The Word for Today (Thursday) is Gratitude.  Salvaging Gratitude?   (Please!)   [or]   Gratitude for Salvation?  (Yes!)   But Gratitude works well, on it's own, because it Helps the World go around.  So what are  *you*  Grateful for, today?

Word for the Day: Wednesday, September 30, 2020

The Word for Today (Wednesday) is Equality.   Salvaging Equality?   [or]   Equal Opportunity Salvation?   (Both?)   But the second one brings up a point:  Equal Opportunity, in my opinion is the  "Good Kind"  of Equality, as opposed to  "Forced Conformity"  which, though often found, is  *not*  Helpful.
