Thanks for sharing. That's a great outlook to have.

That's good to know. Tell me more.

You're right, podcasting is really popular. My advice is to keep it simple to start with and build from there. I use to teach people how to podcast and here is a link to one of my free guides bit.ly/PPDFPW22

Thanks for you comment. Let me know how you get on 😊

Me too. It's such a happy time of year for us

Can you be more specific?

Thank you for taking the time to comment. You are absolutely right. There are people in this world who have been put in awful situations. Those are not the individuals I’m speaking to.

Tell me, why do you feel trapped?

@@MariaANewman kids and rent, taxes are high to pay for economic immigrants which has forced rents up to

@@gerhughes6854 I can see how you feel trapped. Tell me, the things that bring you joy.

Thanks for your comment. Yes my situation was different to yours. Tell me, what options do you think you have?

@@MariaANewman get another job or sell the house, basically. Job applications yield about 1 interview per 100 applications however!

@@TrickyTree84 Sounds like you're in a challenging position. Do you have the option of signing on with a temp agency until you get a permanent position?

You’re welcome. What one thing could you do that would make a difference?

Thank you for commenting

Thank you. I hope you're having a great day.

You're welcome. How has your day been?

I agree. At the time it feels so hard and then as they grow they encounter other challenges. This was a great reminder to just enjoy.

It would be great if we could just hit pause once in a while. Just being in the moment really helps.

@@MariaANewman agreed!!! :)

This is so true. The fact that they are with us is something to be grateful for.

Wow, you must have so much fun and love surrounding you. How does being a grandmother / great grandmother compare to being a mother?

It's great to hear that you're able to enjoy the time with your grandkids.

@@MariaANewman it is. ❤️

You're so right. Be in the moment. Savour the moments. They are precious and before you know it life has moved on :)

Just listen to ABBA slipping through my fingers 😢

Thank you for your comment. We can be very quick to be critical of ourselves when in reality we're doing our best and that is good enough.

Thank you for your comment. I used to be quite superstitious. I'm less so now. After all, life is what you make it 🙂

You are welcome. Are you facing some challenges right now?

@@MariaANewman nothing major just weight loss before my 3rd kid comes

Are you experiencing difficulties?

Is this your example of viewing a circumstance as neutral?

Are you in a situation where you're interacting with a person who is not rational?

Everyday! Whether it's someone under incredible stress trying to meet impossible deadlines at work, someone who has taken drugs you meet in the street or public transport, a relative with dementia or suffering from another mental illness, even someone suffering from PTSD. Emergency services, solicitors, retail staff , professions from all walks of life, We all meet irrational people more than you would imagine. I think you are saying that we can control our own actions in order to influence the outcome we want. But sometimes people we interact with don't act logically or predictably.

Yes. It's about putting ourselves in the best frame of mind so that we can show up in the best way that will serve us and those around us. As you say, some people may not act logically or predictably and we have no way of knowing that. We can decide what actions we take to respond.

Interesting. Tell me more

So what I do is I scroll through and comment that on every post (you were the 4th) so far I’m at 2739 but I’m trying to advertise my channel bc it’s new and I deleted my old content. That’s why I’m relying on my once 93 , now 76 subscribers. I wanna be popular some day :) it’s my scholarship training for art school

@@RandomArtMaker Interesting strategy

Thank you 😂

Interesting perspective. Tell me more.

have you seen american psycho? the actor described how tom cruse's smile doesn't quite reach the eyes. to me responding is premeditated@@MariaANewman

Thank you

Interesting. Tell me more

Can I ask why you may have been avoiding it?

Thank you for your comment. I hope you're having a good day.

Thank you, I am.

Thank you for your comment 🙏 We still have to apply for our local school even though we’re in the catchment area. I live in a highly populated area and getting a place at our local school is not a given even if you do live in the catchment area.

@@MariaANewman Yep. But that isn’t what’s done in Northern Ireland or Scotland and last time I checked they were in the UK too

@@lanabmc3519 thank you 🙏

I love how you have reframed it for your children. Our children pick up on how we're feeling even if we're not saying anything. Although my children are happy to see the dentist, I will definitely be using your reframe :)

Exactly. Life is what you make it.

Thank you. I've shown myself plenty of self compassion.

Thank you. I'm feeling much better and my eyes are less balloon like.

Thank you for commenting. Tell me, for what purpose is it your business?

​@@MariaANewman I'm going to give an extreme example to exemplify my point. If i go around stealing from other people would you want me to go to jail or be locked up? Yes of course you would. But why would you? You can't change my behavior. What business is it if yours to change my behavior? I didn't steal from you. This obvious example is why it is your business but of course you can't force them to change. You can advocate for it. You can suggest it. You can't force it. You can take action against behaviors.

@@troyhenry6111I like your example. You can make suggestions and they will decide if and when they want to change.

@@MariaANewman agreed. In the future will you change your behavior to accommodate this nuance? I feel that it's important to accurately describe what we mean

You're welcome. Rachael's amazing :)
