Is There Value In Negativity?

Do you view the glass half full or half empty?

Do you become frustrated when it rains on a day you were planning on enjoying the outdoors?

Do you find that complaining about life brings you happiness?

Generally speaking, having a negative outlook can put yourself in a position where you find yourself less happy and create a less than enjoyable environment for those around you.

You may find that there is little to be positive about, but some circumstances may be less bleak than you perceive.

To feel negative emotions is normal when life throws obstacles in the path.

There can be catharsis in letting the veneer of positivity down.

However, have you found a balance between positivity and negativity that allows you to live a life that’s satisfying?

Oleg has had his fair share of negativity over the years.

He knows he is not alone in respect to hard times.

He is curious to see how negativity may be used for the good if possible.

The question is: Is there #value in #negativity?

Join Casey Berman, LaChelle Adkins, Caleb Pearson and Oleg, as they discuss the impact of negativity, the role "negativity" has in allowing us to understand "positivity", and other related topics.

What Is The Difference Between Faith And Hope?

Do you believe in things that are bigger than yourself?

Do you believe in things you cannot see?

Do you have faith?

People with faith can feel something that the faithless cannot.

They have a peace that cannot be defined by worldly measures.

Faith is simply bigger than the day to day interactions of the world.

Another similar idea is hope.

Hope is the longing for something better even if there is no evidence that will be the case.

Hope requires an inner feeling that the hopeless do not possess.

To hope is to break oneself from the chains of despair.

If lack of evidence is not required for hope and faith, do they share a common thread?

Are they individual entities with unique characteristics?

What is the difference between hope and faith?

Join Oleg and LaChelle as they compare and contrast hope and faith and please add your ideas to the comments below.

Do You Believe Your Story Can Change The World?

Do you believe your story can change the world?

What makes you believe that such story is possible?

Do you believe that you can be the person to create and live such story? If so, why? If not, why not?

For years, many people have tried to crack the code of effective #storytelling.

The type of storytelling that can change one’s inner and outer world.

Some claim to have found it.

Others are still searching for it.

Establishing Conversations About Black Lives Matter

As the Black Lives Matter movement progresses, we may wonder how to educate ourselves on this topic or figure out ways to address it. While there are those trying to think of ways they can get involved, there may be others who don’t feel they know enough to develop an opinion.

In this episode, LaChelle discusses creating a dialogue to talk about our different experiences, knowing people’s agendas before you join a movement, and seeing people based on their character. With all of these ideas in mind, we can have enlightened conversations about people’s lives based on different variables and make a change in the world.
