Positive Mental Attitude

PMA, a buzz phrase of the last 100 years I think language is important as it defines the world we live in, the minute you try to change the meaning of the words you change the situation, saying “I am all for freedom of speech, but we shouldn’t offend anyone” is simply changing the definition of “freedom of speech” to meaning you don’t have any freedom at all because somebody somewhere is very likely to Read more…

See the thing is most people are constantly looking for a solution to their problems whether it’s money, time, relationships, hiring, firing, firefighting, or any of the other thousand and one problems that 99% of people face everyday.
