Nuisance Monster – NO FAILURE ZONE
This monster has been around an awful lot lately. The message it delivers is that you need to gather more information or resources. Can you guess its name (feeling, emotion)? It is inadequacy. How many times lately I have had the feeling that I just did not have enough information or understanding to execute a […]
Monsters Inside – NO FAILURE ZONE
Two related monster messengers here, disappointment and guilt. The first tells you that need to change your expectations about another person or situation. You will know you are disappointed when you get that feeling that you are missing out on something and will never have it. See how it is the cousin of FEAR (not […]
More on Big Monsters-NO FAILURE ZONE
I last wrote about loss and hurt and I started down the path of the 7 trespasses and how that anger and resentment, or annoyance and frustration, or even rage had the power to kill your MEPS (mental, emotional, physical, spiritual). But what was it that fed the little monsters and made them bigger? The […]
Did I Actually Lose Something? – NO FAILURE ZONE
A lot of people are experiencing true loss.Hundreds of millions of people. THIS BLOG IS NOT ABOUT TRUE LOSS. I feel for you, I just lost a beloved aunt this week. This blog is about the other loss that we feel, the one we can do something about, the so-called illusory loss. It is a […]
BIGGER MONSTERS – NO FAILURE ZONE
The little monster was discomfort and all of it’s related synonyms (distress, unease, impatience, boredom and even embarrassment).

All of these expressions indicate the emotion or feeling of discomfort. They all just leave you with that unsettling feeling that all is not right. They send one of […]
Little Monsters – NO FAILURE ZONE
Today is about little monsters. These are the onset of the “negative” or disempowering feelings, emotional messengers that are trying to tell us to take an empowering action. Left unattended these can bloom into full MONSTERS! Frustration is one of these little monsters. It tells you that you are not going to get what you […]
Disempowered? Get MOTIVATED! – NO FAILURE ZONE
Feeling Disempowered, the fancy words I use for negative feelings. And I use disempowered because I don’t believe any of our feelings are negative. If they are God given they have a purpose, and that is to send us a message, just like the red lights on a dashboard of a care tell you the […]
No BAD Reason – NO FAILURE ZONE
Why did you do it? Most might say “No GOOD reason”. You see most people idle in neutral or feeling bad. They need a reason to feel good! People, there are plenty of reasons to feel bad, so why not level the playing field by having numerous reasons to feel good? LOL, see that one? […]
FOREVER – NO FAILURE ZONE
Forever. Will this go on forever? This is going to take forever. I will stay with you forever. Forever is a very powerful word, and it takes a long, long time. Be careful using this word in a metaphor. It can leave you with a feeling of hopelessness. It is a word that leaves you […]
