How many things do you have to do today, this week, this month? If you’re like most people, your life is filled with lots of tasks, and often not much else. That can lead to a feeling of exhaustion and stress.
Why do we do this to ourselves?
It is a lot easier for most people to “do” than to “be.” Sometimes we are even proud of the lengths of our “to-do” lists, when not frustrated by them.
At the end of the day, though, we a…

While gender differences have been widely researched and certain behavioral differences observed and labeled in our society, it is not appropriate to stereotype.
The differences between each individual are far more significant than the gender-based differences. This difference between individuals applies to the capability for communication, as well.
