My career

A few times a month... and then only fleetingly.

I believe it's because she resembles an ewok. Ewoks, aside from being cuddly, adorable and NOT to be underestimated, are from Star Wars. Star Wars = awesome, therefore Jen Rubio = awesome.

I believe strongly in holistic medicine. There was a time, not so long ago, before Pharma existed on the scale it does today... I think a combination of mental/ emotional outlook, natural healing (consumed or practiced) and in more serious cases, modern medicine, can all work together. I don't think there is a single right answer, but my beliefs are that if one's personal psychology, like in the case of stress, can cause them physical harm... of course it can work it reverse.

I have not run into this issue yet, I guess I have been fortunate... between my ex of ~6 years and my current girlfriend of ~1 year, I guess anything I might have been found unappealing never felt that way. Call it love, or just a lack of something overt enough to make me any less inclined to enjoy them.
-
I don't have one anymore... it used to be collecting of various things, but I guess these days I am lucky to find a little reading time. I guess the closest thing would be concert going - I try to get to a minimum of a dozen live performances a year. I hit something like 20 concerts last year...

Everything about me except for my underlining morals (and my nerd passion for star wars and things sci-fi) is different, today... I was a shy, self conscious kid who was afraid of rejection in all forms and all sorts of common stuff that most kids experience at one point in highschool. I've since become a "person" who thrives on failures (and growing/learning from them) as much as my successes, if not more. I love people, do fine with confidence from design to women, and am generally happy to have built a life where I feel great being "me." :)
Highschool is a fascinating world that is sometimes hard to see outside of when you're in the thick of it, but once you're clear you are baffled by how narrow-sighted you were. I guess it's a metaphor for big growth and change in life -
Sugars, definitely sugars. I'm good on veggies, sodium intake, etc... sugars are my vice though. :/
-
I used to feel that way... it's a balance of confidence. It's funny, because my business partner teases me for my modesty - I don't brag or boast, because I don't feel comfortable doing that. It's not to say that I am not confident, but there's a difference. However, about feeling like you're "fooling" someone... overtime I gained enough confidence in my work to be comfortable and accept praise without judgement. You feeling like you're "fooling" them translates to you thinking they just aren't capable of appraising or judging your work properly, and if they were, they wouldn't be offering such lauding... learn to allow people their genuine opinions and balance it out with working to improve yourself to a place you feel better about, confidence wise.
Eventually it won't be a matter of yes or no, but appreciation and a desire to continue to earn such considerations from peers/ whoever. -
White socks when I have to, no socks when it's warm enough not to.

Many times. I generally decide things with a mixture of logic and intuition. Logic is a good counterbalance to fear (of the unknown, of confidence in one's capabilities, etc)- it enables you to think past surface concerns and appraise an opportunity's value. However, I believe intuition is sort of a safe guard... If everything about an opportunity looks good, and seems great on paper- a logical and good thing to do- but it still doesn't feel right... That's worth listening to. I've faced that across the board with life events and experiences, major and minor. In those instances, I try to strip away both the fear and the rational and look at it plainly, from inside; how do I actually feel about this? Just because it might seem great for me, is this specific opportunity truly something I want, that will make me happy and/ or fulfilled? There are alot of ideas about what those terms mean in general, and things like money or expectation can be powerful, but distracting influencers. I guess it takes fine tuning and trial and error, but during the process of honest internal seeking, I always pick based on what will make me happy and truly feels right, versus what "should" make me happy.
Sorry, long-winded answer to a simple question :) -
I'm not watching much now that The Walking Dead is over for the season... I catch up with shows like How I Met Your Mother and The Office in bursts (via web), but otherwise I guess I don't have time. Pining for a new Sci-Fi show...
-
We're actually writing a blog post about this... hard to say for me, depends greatly on my mood, particularly since music is such a huge part of my day (naming one song for anything is impossible :)
Some broad -range songs in no particular order:
Pearl Jam - Rearview Mirror
Dave Matthews Band - Two Step
Foo Fighters - Everlong
Ini Comoze - Here Come's the Hotstepper
Tear For Fears - Everybody Wants to Rule the World
The list goes on... those just off the top of my head. -
I volunteer my life to the well-being of the company I am building :) It's for the staff and for them to enjoy their careers and lives as much as it is to me. There isn't a whole lot of time for much else...
-
Gossip? Straightening hair for 3 hours? Concern for irrelevant things, I suppose :)
-
Priorities in general. I don't really care past the point than looking presentable in whatever the situation is. More of a concern is being comfortable and getting more important concerns handled :)
-
Sort of a broad question... sometimes yes, sometimes no. It really depends on what the context is. Frequently, with business decisions, they are examples for our staff about how we lead as much as they are about the decisions for the topic at hand. So, it depends :)
