In the MYTH WARRIORS™ series we are targeting ideas to begin to assess whether they are credible or not. We are warriors fighting to establish clarity between what is accurate and what is simply a myth (or falsehood) in life. All of this is in furtherance of our mission to surpass our goals! In this episode we delve into the somewhat deceptively simple concept of, “Women who succeed professionally fail in personal relationships.”
Are women able to “have it all?” Should they “lean-in?” Do women have to choose between working in professional endeavors and having any personal life (or relationships) at all? Does a woman have to either decide 100% to work inside the home (mother, wife, etc.)? Does a woman have to accept that if she does any professional work outside the home that she will be a failure as a mother, wife, friend, daughter, sibling, etc. (in all of her personal relationships)?If a woman already has some professional accomplishments in life and she is single, is she doomed to be alone forever (as she has forfeited her opportunity at a fulfilling personal romantic relationship and she is “too intimidating”)? All workaholics are [...] Our LAW LOVER'S LOUNGE™ series addresses a general overview of some of the most important issues to the general public! I am an attorney and I have owned a general practice law firm since 1998 in Texas, USA.
A general practice attorney is similar to a general practice physician in that they address issues that do not require a specialist. We call this series its title because we do love law! Seriously. This is a lounge because these are general discussions on general legal topic for public information purposes. There is no client relationship created between this show and Attorney Courtney E. Anderson, or The Law Offices of Courtney E. Anderson (Litigation-Mitigation.com). These disclaimers are very important. The content in these shows is for general educational purposes and is not the delivery of legal services. This episode addresses the topic of, “I think that I am about to be sued for divorce…now what?” 1) Find out if you have a reason for this belief or if it is simply your imagination. Ask your spouse. If they are not available, ask your friends and family. Also, talking to a professional counselor is a good idea. 2) Do not engage in violence (or threats of violence). Do not “push the buttons” of your spouse to try to make them become violent. This often backfires and people can lash out in ways you never imagined possible. Do not do this. 3) Shut up. Talking to people about [...] This episode is part of our FINANCIAL FIERCENESS!™ series! Our FINANCIAL FIERCENESS!™ series integrates our financial goals into our overall strategic development plan for surpassing our goals. This episode is, “How to buy your first (or next, or best) home!”
Many of us remember some discussion with a relative when we were teenagers wherein we were told, “This is my house! I make the rules. When you have your own house, you can make the rules!” This show first explores the question of why we think we want to buy a home. Do we want a house because of the freedom of being able to decorate it anyway that we desire (purple polka-dots, etc.) and the ability to do what we want, when we want, how we want? Then, purchasing a home for ourselves may be a great choice to ensure that we are joyful in our lives! If we are not sure where we want to reside and we despise the idea of having to do maintenance, it may not be the right time for us to purchase a property. Once you determine why you want to purchase a home, how do you buy it? If you pay cash for it, do not spend every single penny that you have. Always leave a cushion of extra money. Ensure that you negotiate the best possible price and do not let anyone know that you are in love with a property until you have closed on it (and it is yours). If you are borrowing money, again, do not spend every penny you have on the down payment and closing costs. Always [...] |
