Additionally, you'd have a hard time convincing this San Francisco school that meditation has no benefits - http://www.nbcnews.com/nigh...

Meditation is but only a part of leading a mindful life. It's unfortunate that this article starts out by insinuating that the practice of mindfulness is questionable when in the end, it's questioning the benefits of meditation. Let me bridle my enthusiasm for this non-information. *yawn*

"deconversion" (typo "deconersion" - third sentence from the bottom) just wanted to let someone know. Great article - I can totally relate! I look back at myself with compassion when I am tempted to be embarrassed (which is often, lol). It was all a part of the journey though and for that, I am grateful.

Re: UNPOPULAR OPINION: Please Stop Asking About My Family Holiday Plans - by Kim Riukhin

Ricci Neer — Thu, 18 Dec 2014 09:08:24 -0000

I understand, but this is more of a rant. It's not all or nothing - either spew the uncomfortable truth or lie, when in fact, you can just say "I'm not sure yet, how about you?" and just be happy for their response in the moment. I sat alone in my apartment crying after I lost my family and being with another family wouldn't have made it better. There was nothing that could have made it better, but that was my situation to bear. People have no idea and it's not necessary to dump on them or lie in order to feel like we need to appease them. Asking people to stop talking about what's important to them is censorship. We need to navigate ourselves in those situations - not others.

Re: A Heavy Curriculum

I have struggled (as we all do) with being affected by someone else's treatment of me and if that's on me or on them. I can look back and see the difference though. There are times when it's on them and has nothing to do with me, those instances where I am not to take it personally. Then there are those times when someone is inflicting something painful upon me, because of their woundedness or whatever, but that doesn't mean that I have to just take it. There is a time to stand up and say, no, treating people like that is not ok. Treating me like that is simply not alright. I do my work. That is how I can dissipate the emotion around it and handle it objectively. But I agree, we are human, we were created with feelings and emotions and I don't believe they were meant to be destroyed or invalidated. Like the ego, they are meant to serve us. Let us honor our egos, feelings and emotions. They are a part of us and with tempering, serve us well along our journey.

Not so much. I would have much rather experienced a "terrible message" than be left devastated by divorce.

Re: Investing in Your Hair Can Yield Great Returns

I started graying out of high school and have been coloring my hair ever since. I found a stylist, and a style, that I absolutely love. It's totally worth the investment, on so many levels.

The article is in line with what this site is about - prosperity and passion. She's merely sharing what makes her feel energized and how it's a justified expense for her. One with which I totally concur.

I travel all over, so I appreciate knowing what's going on with my friends. If I get invited somewhere where I'm not going to be and the event looks like it could be a match for someone I know who is in the area, I let them know about the event. I know you've asked me not to invite you to my events in Austin (which I've since stopped doing in your sweet, special case :), but my reasoning behind it was in hopes it would correlate to when you were down this way or perhaps it would benefit someone else you might know.

Re: Swiss Chalet Rudolph, You Creep Me Out

Ricci Neer — Tue, 01 Dec 2009 12:22:52 -0000

Ummm awkward! I laughed out loud at your comments (yes, dad does sound like he's from Jersey). We don't have Swiss Chalet's in Texas (and when I got your email about it I was prepared to read something about an actual Swiss chalet....).

I may visit Canada one day and the only thing I can tell you is that there isn't anything in that ad that would make me put a visit to Swiss Chalet on my "Things Not To Miss" list.

Forgettable.

Re: Dayparting Twitter

Ricci Neer — Mon, 01 Jun 2009 08:06:52 -0000

You are right, people do miss tweets and then if things are tweeted multiple times throughout the day, it can be a turnoff for those who've seen it before. My suggestion - change up the verbiage and interact in different ways with the content. Consider spreading the timing out over two or three days.

Thanks man. I choose to have a text message alert when I get a DM and I didn't want to have to turn it off.

Just wanted to comment on my own post here - some Internet Marketing packages are more than worth their weight in gold. I myself have four of them.

My intention isn't to say that direct sellers shouldn't purchase high ticket internet marketing courses.

It's been my experience that the content can be too much, depending upon where a direct seller is in their business. That's why I've created a tiered level membership.

Once someone has reached the Pro Level 3 or Elite Level 4 She Sales membership and perhaps has had an opportunity to mastermind with our Inner Circle, it's then that she's more likely ready for more hard-core internet marketing instruction.

Re: Zena Women Thought of the Day 12/5

Ricci Neer — Fri, 05 Dec 2008 15:54:07 -0000

I dunno, I'm pretty transparent and not good and pretending stuff I don't feel, lol, but I guess the best thing to do, if you want to state the truth and not have to discuss it or get into the drama (if that's what you're trying to avoid by saying "i'm fine") is to qualify it - then deflect it - "Well, I'm experiencing ___, but I'm under a dr's care, go back next week and I'm not going to worry about it right now - so, how's Darren's new job going?"
