In April 2006, O still published the “Something to Think About” questions, so I’ll keep doing them, simply because they do force me to examine myself, no matter if I like it or not.
“How much time and money do you spend each week on your appearance? Is it more than you spend on your inner [...]

I’m not really keyed up with the four “Something to Think About” questions this month–I tend to whine a bit about the questions, but I think I’m getting a handle on defining success for me (being OK with my definition is taking a little bit of work, as is fulfilling my ambition, but that will [...]

It’s a nice, short, 2-question “Something to Think About” in the self-esteem issue (vol. 2 iss. 3), which is nice because I don’t think my self-esteem could handle a bunch of questions. Let’s get to it:
The intro paragraph claims that if you want to change the way you feel about yourself, change the way you [...]

The “Something to Think About” questions usually paralyze me, and lately there have only been a couple per issue. This time there’s FIVE. I dread these, mostly because I don’t want to sit down and think about them [you're actually supposed to rip out the page and make your own workbook--has anyone out [...]

The two “Something to Think About” questions for this issue (hooray! Only two!) are around the idea that the to bring change in your life, you first have to be that change, i.e.–if you want more/better friends in your life, you have to be a better friend first. Give of yourself, and then you’ll receive [...]

Gratitude? Thy name is only two “Something to Think About” questions this week! The point is to dwell on all the things you can be thankful about. If you’re grateful, you open yourself up to even more good things (hey, what goes around, comes around), and you start spreading the joy to others.
1. “Ask yourself: [...]

I don’t want to do the “Something to Think About” questions. I’m tired of them. Only four issues in, and I’m tired of the constant self-examination. Though, now that I look at these, I suppose they aren’t too bad:
“Think of the person you trust the most. How has he or she earned your confidence?” Well, [...]

Is it bad that I’m relieved there are only two questions in the “Something to Think About” feature this issue? In terms of this month’s theme, the power of thought, I’m not having an easy time. The other day was rough for me–lots of negative thoughts about being able to write, being able to get [...]

Ugh. The question page is here again. I still have no desire to face my feelings and work toward a better life. I kind of wonder if that will change as time goes on. Anyway, I’ll give it a shot.
Recall a time when you felt an intense emotion, such as anger [...]

One of the features that sets O apart from other magazines is the personal “workbook” sheet that has questions for you to ponder in creating your best life. This is not the stuff I go for, but OK, I’ll do them. I won’t like it though!
