A. Nothing in life is free. You always give something up to get something. And the bottom line, the basic medium of exchange, is energy. You pay—not with money, or talent, or high-tech commodities. You pay with energy. PET Scans have shown that the brain expends differing amounts of energy depending on the type of activity it is engaged in, and whether or not the activity matches its own biochemical advantage. People tend to use less energy second for second when engaged in activities that match their brain's biochemical advantage. Using money as a metaphor, the differences in energy expenditure may be as significant as pennies on the dollar! The question becomes, therefore: are you expending your energy in energy-intensive or energy-efficient ways? Cruise with Arlene (host #42316)
Stimulate your brain (e.g., grow dendrites on your neurons) through travel and informal discussions about brain function. Ask about Continuing Education credit for nurses (CA BRN CE Provider #08580) and MFTs/LCSWs (CA BBS CE Provider #37). Register with EOT to secure your reservation. More cruise information online...

Point to PonderUnless you change your direction, you are likely to end up where you are going. --An Old Chinese Proverb That's great news if you know where you want to end up and are moving in that direction. It's not-so-good news if you don't! Picture positive outcomes, create a mental map that will help you achieve those positive outcomes, and follow it. Do something every day to help you move in the desired direction. You can do it!

There
has been a great deal of change in the world lately--from
Iraq to Bird Flu and everywhere in between. It even
seems there have been more changes in my life than
usual, including a small remodeling job at home
(at the house, not on me), a trip to Southern California
to attend my Uncle Ed Cafferky's memorial
service, and the marriage of my cousin's daughter
in Canada. All this, plus a request to address the
topic of change with a community group of young
adults, triggered my new article: Chim-Chiminey
Change.
