A good chunk of the rest of Issue Two is devoted to helping yourself in other ways. There are articles about manicures, eye surgery, drinking enough water, getting fit, sleeping more, that sort of thing. Hillary Clinton weighs in on her favorite books. Jane Fonda talks about the disease to please in [...]

Getting to Happy
Posted in Happiness, Vol. 1 Iss. 2, tagged Happiness, Vol. 1 Iss. 2 on March 6, 2008 | 1 Comment »
Boy, this issue is jam-packed with articles to blog about. I’m skipping over a lot, but I have to wonder, are they all going to be like this? And just how messed up am I, really? But there’s an article about getting to happiness that I need to try. I’m actually [...]
Just Say No
Posted in Happiness, Vol. 1 Iss. 2, tagged change, disease to please, Happiness, Vol. 1 Iss. 2 on March 6, 2008 | No Comments »
A couple of articles after the big happiness questions, there’s an article about curing yourself of the disease to please. I suppose one might diagnose me with that, but here’s the twist: I’ve been working on this one for a while.
The “disease to please” is mostly a women’s issue, I think. We’re [...]
Spending Time Alone Is Not That Difficult!
Posted in Happiness, Vol. 1 Iss. 2, tagged Happiness, Vol. 1 Iss. 2 on March 5, 2008 | No Comments »
There’s an article in Vol. 1, Iss. 2 that tries to explain why you must have some “alone time.” As someone who’s had plenty of “me time,” I never understand the people who can’t be alone. It’s not that difficult to go to the movies by yourself, so get over it!
The Boy is the opposite [...]
Experience Pain to Get to Happiness
Posted in Happiness, Something to Think About, Vol. 1 Iss. 2, tagged Happiness, Vol. 1 Iss. 2 on March 5, 2008 | No Comments »
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 [...]

In issue 2, Suze Orman wants you to face your money worries and to not be afraid of planning a financial future. Let’s take a look at her questions:

Calendar in the Moment
Posted in Calendar, Monthly Mission, Vol. 1 Iss. 2 on March 4, 2008 | No Comments »
I totally forgot the calendar page in issue 2. It’s still there, announcing this month’s mission, giving you tasks to do and/or think about to help you live in the moment. They’re actually pretty simple: “Be silly today;” “Do one fun, spontaneous thing that makes you laugh at yourself…” (though if you’re [...]
Dr. Phil Feels You

This month Dr. Phil wants to get to the root of your problems, which means you may be upset about something, but there might be a bigger/deeper problem behind the general fussiness. Here’s this month’s questions:
My husband won’t help clean the house. It really bothers me, and he doesn’t notice. What [...]
Introducing Issue 2
Posted in Reactions, Vol. 1 Iss. 2, tagged Reactions, Vol. 1 Iss. 2 on February 26, 2008 | No Comments »
Part of accomplishing a goal is sticking with it, which means although it was a great feeling to finish blogging about issue 1, I had to get back on the horse and start in with issue 2. Otherwise, I’d never reach my goal.
I did finish issue 2 last night. It’s still pretty ambitious on the [...]
