Mental Health By Monte Wilson
Monte: You evidently have studied psychology. What is your psychological-model: Psychoanalytic? Behaviorism? Freudianism (LOL)? Cognitive psychology? Biological? Existential? Sociocultural? Postmodern? What?
Actually, there is no such thing as a postmodern psychological model, as these people think all such models were created by The Man as a power trip. Plus, when all truth is personal truth it is somewhat difficult to make value judgments regarding certain behaviors and such, isn’t it? Anyway—
Creating Your Character is Like an Artist Creating a Sculpture by Jim Rohn
(Excerpted from the Cultivating an Unshakable Character series) By Jim Rohn
Could creating your character be likened to an artist creating a sculpture? In my opinion, I believe that character is not something that just happens by itself, any more than a chisel can create a work of art without the hand of an artist guiding it. In both instances, a conscious decision for a specific outcome has been made. A conscious process is at work.
Character is the result of hundreds and hundreds of choices you make that gradually turn who you are, at any given moment, into who you want to be. If that decision-making process is not present, you will still be somebody. You will still be alive, but may have a personality rather than a character.
Distrust everyone in whom
the impulse to punish is powerful!

The Goat That Changed Everything
Note: Millions of African grandmothers find themselves suddenly responsible for their grandchildren who have been orphaned by AIDS - with no means to provide for them. This is the story of one Kenyan grandmother, Ruth, and how one goat changed her life and the lives of her HIV-positive grandchildren .
The two small children were sick and alone. Their mother had just died from AIDS and they had already lost their father. Now they too were HIV-positive.
