Keep It Real

Do not let anyone under value or dismiss how you feel. Stand firm in full embrace of your feelings while remaining in and maintaining control. Be expressive and honest without trepidation- no matter what. You have every right to be as open and honest as the situation will allow without judgement or guilt. Just as others look for you to care about their emotional well-being extending grace, courtesy, understanding, and forgiveness in and throughout your experience with them, you and they should bare in mind your humanness as well. Whomever the other is should also note that your limitations may differ from their own and they should refrain from testing those boundaries. Everyone should avoid minimizing the validity of someone's feelings or expect to be reminded of their true value in themselves. Some people think that if you are anything but passive, dismissive, and agreeable you are not exhibiting an elevated position, but that is the mentality of one that has been misguided into thinking that stifling, smothering, or invalidating your own emotion for the sake of "saving face" is healthy. In fact, the opposite is true, the worst transgression you can make against yourself is minimizing your Self in your experience. There is nothing wrong with disagreeing, feeling disrespected, or being disappointed as long as you ultimately choose your response to said emotion, wisely. Be you. Be free. Be honest. Be real. ~For more positive posts stop by fb.me/TheAnswerKey & www.twitter.com/_TheAnswerKey daily!

Job Seeker: Tips and Tricks to Getting the Call

So you're in the trenches of job-hunters and your phone just won't ring. How do you get noticed amongst the hundreds of other applicants? Well, you must understand the plight of your potential employer. With so many people unemployed these days, they are literally looking for a needle in a haystack. While the stack of applications flood their desks, acknowledge that you are hardly anything more than another name on a piece of paper. Most employers have the same view of applications- they're pretty much photocopies of each other, but the papers that accompany that application can make all the difference between having a job and still waiting on one. Let's talk about t...

Getting from MS. to MRS.

Usually I post about things that cater to no particular gender, however, this one right here is for the ladies. Fellas, I have not forgotten about you, and will definitely have little something for you at a later date. ;) Now, let's get down to business. First things first, you need to understand the most typical reasons why men usually will not commit in the first place. These reasons have nothing to do with you. These are issues that would be there no matter who he was dating. Simply put, most of them are waiting on the 'bigger, better, deal'- a fatter booty, a cuter face, slimmer waist, good hair, etc. What they don't realize is that waiting on the next best thing turns into anything with a pulse really fast. It will seem as if it happened overnight and then all of a sudden they became 'that dude'. We've all seen him- either at the club or in the grocery store, you can spot 'that dude' from a mile away- middle-aged, probably balding or practical...

It forces you to really determine what you ar...
