Do you consider yourself a positive or a negative person? I know, you consider yourself a “realist.” I get it.

But if your spouse or best friend was forced to pick between the two options, which would they choose?

How much money would it take for you to feel financially secure? Most of us have a number we think if we could just get to we would feel secure. We finally could stop worrying about money.

We have a number for our salary, a number for our savings, and a number for our retirement account that would let us rest easier.
Have you ever felt like you are falling behind and nothing you are doing is working?

I love to fish, but the part I like the least is spending all day and not catching anything. Some people say a bad day fishing beats any day at work. I don’t feel that way.
Every year I set a goal for my reading. In the past it’s typically been 2-3 books a month. Secretly, I’ve always wanted to set a goal of a book a week but I never thought it was possible. This January I decided I was going to go for it but I didn’t tell anyone…just in case.

Now you know, which will help keep me accountable for the rest of the year.
Do you have any plans to stay with friends this summer? Did you know that if you did just a few simple things you’ll be guaranteed an invitation back?

Vacation season is here! It’s the time kids and adults wait for all year long! As adults, it’s the time we’ve told ourselves we will finally relax and give our family members our undivided attention.

That puts a lot of pressure on your vacation to be a memory machine. The very thing that’s supposed to help you relax can become another source of stress. How am I going to manufacture fun and memories when I’m already exhausted?
Summer is finally here! It is such an amazing time of year! We look forward to it all year long!

Some people love summer so much they move to experience it year round. We hate those people in New York and doubt whether they are really Christians if they’re not willing to endure suffering. (Of course I’m only slightly kidding 🙂 )
When you think about the future do you think it will be better or worse than now?

If we were just basing our opinions on movies we would have to believe the future is a terrible place.
Spring has finally arrived in upstate New York…just in time for summer!

Spring is the season of hope. We are full of hope about the seeds we are planting and what they can become.
How can you tell if you really love someone?

If you were asked that question by your kids what would you say? One day they’ll probably ask so you should be ready.
