The more you try to be reasonable, the louder loved ones become. It’s best to listen to what they have to say until tempers cool.
You know you need to act when you mistake your spouse for the couch. Introduce small changes like one evening a week doing something outside the house and life improves.
Identifying with the underdog isn’t the same as being one. It’s all right to champion a “lost cause” but avoid getting overly personal about it.
It isn’t easy being forced to painstakingly master details, but in time you will. You may even grow to like it.
You’re always there to lend a hand but do you hang around for the thanks? Work without appreciation is like taking half a breath.
The truth is you must go forward with what’s already in play. You can’t afford to back out now and changing course won’t save anything.
