How can I find balance in the movement of my life?
How can I find balance in the movement of my life? Tackle the problem as a real one. Make “finding balance” one of your goals and make a plan to get it. It’s surprising how many of these deep needs go unmet because people shrug and wait for “inspiration” to untie a complex problem, […]
I have no idea who I am or where I’m going with my life.
I have no idea who I am or where I’m going with my life. How do I find that out? It starts with a list of who you’re not! Write down all the projects & day trips & relationships & responsibilities of your life & rate them — were they healthy? Did they make […]
How do I know if I’ve picked the right course of studies?
Thanks to Dana Pearson, who came to the Open Studios, here are some more photos of the event, with me actually in them! 🙂 How do I know if I’ve picked the right course of studies? Talk with the people who’ve already made the choices you’re facing & ask them if they are happy […]
I’m about to start medical school. What will get me through it?
My plan is now to self-fund Wheel Questions by putting in about $5,000 for the original installation, and then hope that people who ask questions (and others) come to the website and dump in a few dollars, helping me to manage financially for all the time and to repay the original investment. Unfortunately I’m not […]
Should I move to D.C. for a boy?

I yell and scream at my daughter… How do I stop myself from doing that?
Sometimes the problem is obvious: what’s not obvious is that we need to ask someone, a friend or a professional, for help. Some problems we just can’t change through hoping and willpower. I yell and scream at my daughter (the oldest) but it is the youngest daughter that causes trouble but I blame it on […]
How do I get a better me?
My car has lots of problems — bad cluth, engine, brakes, body. I don’t need your help for that — I know the answer: get a better car. But I also have lots of problems; perhaps any one could be fixed, but perhaps not. But there’s no “Craigslist.com:new/used me” section. How do I get a […]

Why do I feel so lost + lonely when I am on my own while @ home
Why do I feel so lost + lonely when I am on my own while @ home, but perfectly fine when traveling alone? Our emotions are not purely mental. They also come from the body. When you are sitting idle, with low heart rate & low activity, of course you feel lethargic. But if […]
