Be Perfect Like Me: Comfort Zone
http://cosmictips.blogspot.com/2007/07/comfort-zone.html
Be Perfect Like Me. Tips For Busting Through Your Fears And Living A Happy, Fulfilling Life. Monday, July 16, 2007. How much of my life has been dictated by the massive, lulling gravitational pull of my comfort zone? If you're anything like me, your comfort zone has influenced too many of your decisions. It's kept you in mediocre places and situations and relationships and done its best to silence the voice that nags, "Maybe things could be better.". I believe there's more to life, though. There is c...

Be Perfect Like Me: Like Ambien, but weirder
http://cosmictips.blogspot.com/2007/08/this-one-might-be-little-kooky.html
Be Perfect Like Me. Tips For Busting Through Your Fears And Living A Happy, Fulfilling Life. Saturday, August 25, 2007. Like Ambien, but weirder. This one might be a little kooky. I don't even know if it works. But if it does, you might be able to make your sleep seem longer, no matter how long it actually is. But how to control sleep? Sometimes, though, it helps to ask for better sleep. Ask who? Ask yourself, or rather, your subconscious. Say, "I'd like my sleep to last a looooooooooooong time tonight&#...

Be Perfect Like Me. Tips For Busting Through Your Fears And Living A Happy, Fulfilling Life. Sunday, June 17, 2007. I'm still alive, and I appreciate everyone who has checked here in the last week. Right now, I'm not feeling like much of a teacher or a talker. I'm living and experiencing and figuring things out - which is always the case. But lately, I haven't felt like I have any answers. And in that context, lecturing to anybody about anything would feel disingenuous. June 17, 2007 at 10:07 PM.

Be Perfect Like Me: Don't Burn Out!
http://cosmictips.blogspot.com/2007/07/i-ran-tonight-from-my-apartment-to.html
Be Perfect Like Me. Tips For Busting Through Your Fears And Living A Happy, Fulfilling Life. Monday, July 2, 2007. I ran tonight, from my apartment to Central Park, around the reservoir, and back. The scenery was pretty: the distant spires of midtown, the setting sun shimmering on the water, trees overhead, joggers taking it all in. My running was not pretty. It was awkward, tense, and not especially fast. I no longer care if people think I look weird, but I do wish my form had been better. More successf...

Be Perfect Like Me: Full Circle
http://cosmictips.blogspot.com/2007/07/i-heard-song-today-that-i-havent-heard.html
Be Perfect Like Me. Tips For Busting Through Your Fears And Living A Happy, Fulfilling Life. Sunday, July 1, 2007. I heard a song. Today that I haven't heard in six years. When the first few notes drifted out of my speakers, I experienced such a happy, nostalgic feeling. For just a moment, I was back in college, working at the AV Center at the business school. The 2007 listening experience and the 2001 listening experience met, like the sides of a quilt being folded. And what of the time in the middle?

Be Perfect Like Me: What Just Happened?
http://cosmictips.blogspot.com/2007/06/did-that-just-happen.html
Be Perfect Like Me. Tips For Busting Through Your Fears And Living A Happy, Fulfilling Life. Thursday, June 7, 2007. A big theme in my life is noticing the moment. This counts for double when it is a moment I've worked towards, an achievement that's taken weeks or months of hard work. That said, I like an achievement even more when I don't notice it at first. For instance, I ran on the treadmill tonight at a speed I rarely hit. I flew, and I sweated, and the time passed without much problem. The conversa...

Be Perfect Like Me. Tips For Busting Through Your Fears And Living A Happy, Fulfilling Life. Wednesday, May 30, 2007. Thomas Edison failed 9,999 times before he finally invented the light bulb.". Even the best baseball players fail 7 out of 10 times.". If you have read any success literature, then you've read dozens of these platitudes. They're true, absolutely true. They're also incredibly hard to connect to one's own life and experiences. In our weakest moments, they seem completely worthless. Every fa...

Be Perfect Like Me. Tips For Busting Through Your Fears And Living A Happy, Fulfilling Life. Wednesday, June 27, 2007. I've had the annoying tendency lately to deconstruct everything in my world. I pick it apart and figure out if it is really necessary, if it is real, if it is primal, if it is a worthwhile way to spend my life. I never once thought about why. I was doing what I was doing. It is important to like things for reasons you are concsious of, and to be aware of the impact your habits have on yo...
