Dear MOTIVATION: I was thrilled for the holidays last week, but now I feel overwhelmed by the endless obligations and expectations. Between gift shopping, parties, and family gatherings, I’ve lost the joy I once had. Every task feels like a chore, and I worry I will not enjoy the season at all. How can I […]
Dear MOTIVATION: I cringe at the thought of the office holiday party. Every year, I feel my anxiety increase more and more as the date approaches. Small talk is not my strength, and I often feel out of place among my co-workers, who seem to connect with and welcome one another effortlessly. I want to […]
Dear MOTIVATION: I wanted to take a moment to express how incredibly grateful I am for my manager. She inspires and motivates our team daily with her positive attitude and unwavering support and empowerment. Her encouragement has made a significant difference in our work environment, and I often find myself wondering how I can show […]

Dear MOTIVATION: Thanksgiving is just around the corner, and I’m already dreading the family gathering. Our family has become increasingly divided over political issues, and I worry that this year’s dinner will ignite heated debates. I want to enjoy the holiday, but how can I gently steer conversations away from divisive topics without causing tension? […]
Dear MOTIVATION: Every Thanksgiving, I look forward to sharing a meal with my family, but I often feel disheartened by the lack of gratitude shown by a few relatives. They rarely acknowledge the effort that goes into preparing the feast; heck, most of the time, it’s like the Value of GRATITUDE is non-existent in their […]
Dear MOTIVATION: I am a Dad who loves and wants the best for my daughter. She just turned 17 years old and has become unruly at times in her behavior, to include, demands for increased privacy and freedom to come and go as she pleases. My daughter thus far has been a good child with goals, […]
Dear MOTIVATION: I need your advice and help. An unexpected chain of life events hit me all at once in my second year of college. Now I am unmotivated and lost. I am a first-generation college student who was filled with a lot of hope and promise when I left home to go out of state […]
