Saying No
How often do you say “no” to things that would interfere with your goals? My artistic aspirations require time which I do not always give them. I would like to be more financially secure and that means saying No to spending. I am not always good in either of those regards. I also have an…

Charisma
What’s a secret skill or ability you have or wish you had? I am more introverted than a true charismatic. I would like to have the ability to make strangers fear and love me. But I don’t get out of the house much and what charisma I have only goes so far on the Internet.…
