Supporting You in Your Desire to Change
by Michael Feeley
This cuts to the heart of the matter: we outsource our happiness, then resent the world for failing us. We wait. For the promotion. For someone to notice. For circumstances to align. We’ve made happiness conditional—something earned through external validation rather than claimed through internal choice. But happiness isn’t a prize the world awards for […]

Remember that line from “Santa Claus Is Coming to Town”? He’s making a list, checking it twice, gonna find out who’s naughty or nice. We sing it like it’s about behavior – did you clean your room, tell the truth, share your toys? But the deeper question cuts straight to the bone: Have you had […]

“You’re playing with fire” – we all know this warning. It means taking foolish risks that invite trouble. Cheating. Lying. Cutting corners. Breaking promises. But what’s the opposite? Not just avoiding danger – that’s passive. Consider this: When you play with fire, you risk getting burned. When you play with water, you cleanse, refresh, sustain […]

Fear is a powerful force, and we’re all storytellers when it comes to dealing with it. The question isn’t whether you create stories about your fear – you do. The question is: are they serving you or destroying you? Some people befriend fear, recognizing it as information rather than a stop sign. They tell empowering […]

“Woe is me” versus “How fortunate I am.” Both are choices. Both are available at the same time. “Woe is me” wraps us in victimhood—dramatic, self-focused, announcing our suffering to the world. It’s oddly comfortable because it requires nothing of us. It can even become a kind of confidence—confidence in our pain, in our unfortunate […]

When I write my daily blog post, it often reflects something happening in my life and work. I’ve learned I’m not alone in my thoughts and feelings—other people will relate to what I’m experiencing. You may be going through the same thing right now. That connection can give you clarity and inspiration. It can offer […]

The manager you trusted just quit in a rage. The deal you counted on collapsed. The plan you built your week around imploded overnight. Your stomach clenches. Your mind races through worst-case scenarios. Everything feels like it’s sliding sideways into chaos. Stop. Breathe. Look again. That manager who quit? They were manipulating you. Now they’re […]

That invitation you just received? Someone saw something in you that perhaps you’ve overlooked. They’re not offering charity—they’re making a bet on your capability. We decline opportunities for elaborate reasons: not qualified enough, timing’s wrong, something better might appear. But strip away the rationality and what remains? It’s pure resistance. Fear dressed in logic’s clothing. […]

We need both backbone and heart. They’re not opposites. They’re partners. Backbone keeps us standing when the work gets hard. It’s the part of us that says “not yet” when we want to quit, that shows up again tomorrow, even after today didn’t go as planned. Backbone is tenacity – that quiet determination that refuses […]

The Truth. The Whole Truth. Nothing But the Truth. Say these words out loud. Feel their weight. Some people live by them. Truth sits at their core – unshakeable, non-negotiable. It’s who they are when no one’s watching. Others see truth as flexible. A tool to be bent, shaped, hidden. They lie to get what […]
