Something About Disappointment
Disappointment is a part of life. Getting your hopes up can be problematic. When something you hoped for doesn’t come true, it hurts. The saving grace here is that time helps you get over things and offers needed perspective. Time can help you move on to other things to come and hopefully better.
Some Funny Amazon Prime Packaging
I am a fan of smart and funny stuff. This Amazon Prime packaging has a very clever and very true slogan. Without someone ordering stuff, this package container is indeed empty on the inside. Well done Amazon package marketing and design team.
How Do You Take Your Coffee or Tea?
Using the above graphic illustrating the varying darkness or lightness of coffee, how do you take your brew. Dark like one or barely any coffee at all in seven. Personally, I am a 3 or a 4 guy myself. The same scale would also work if you are more of a fan of hot tea. What say you?
Daily Prompt – Word Of The Day: Middle Aged
As a person in his 50s, I am certainly middle-aged. My sense of humor gravitates to that of a fifteen-year-old boy, it’s still hard to believe I am middle-aged. My body does tell me a different story there. Stuff hurts, and I need my bifocals to read almost everything.
I still listen to the music of my youth (the 70s and 80s). I try to keep up with what is going on these days to stay somewhat relevant. Being conversant with multiple generations is a good thing.
Being middle-aged, especially as a member of Generation X can be fun at times. Our history has let us see a lot of innovation and changes in the world. Like any era in history, you have got to roll with the punches and be flexible. Getting older is not for the feint of heart, though.

I found this nugget of wisdom on Facebook. I agree with it very much. Burnout is definitely related to being valued on the job and in other things you do. The way to keep people engaged and active, especially if they are a hardworking individual, is to offer some praise and appreciation. The same principles work for being on the job. As a people-pleaser, I have experienced this first hand. An attaboy or attagirl can be a good thing to do.
