Resolution or Realization? Which is it for you?

Written by George and Rachel Barker on January 6, 2019. Posted in George's Happiness Blog.

Before I begin, let me wish everyone a very Happy New Year! We all know that this is the time of the year for resolutions. Some live by them and some want nothing to do with them … so I’m not going to say much about resolutions, other than they seem to be more pronounced […]

Christmas traditions. How do you see them?

Written by George and Rachel Barker on December 15, 2018. Posted in George's Happiness Blog.

Not too terribly long ago, Rachel and I spent a week in the Caribbean. I guess you could say somewhat of a new tradition for us. On our latest outing, we took a little time to do some snorkeling (yes, it was a balmy 85 degrees while temperatures back home were hovering in the 40’s […]

Written by George and Rachel Barker on December 7, 2018. Posted in George's Happiness Blog.

Festive or Fearful? This time of year is considered a joyous time of year. Christmas. Chanukah. Kwanzaa. Solstice (Winter Holidays around the world). It’s a festive time with family and friends. Unfortunately, it can also be a time of year filled with stress, anguish, and pain. So, whether this is a time you find festive […]

The Great Transformation. It has begun.

Written by George and Rachel Barker on December 5, 2018. Posted in George's Happiness Blog.

The Great Transformation. Why, why, why? Do so many who seem to be so normal for 11 months out of the year, transform into crazy people at Thanksgiving … then Black Friday … Cyber Monday! And, now it’s in full swing. Suddenly normal is something different than it was just a few days prior. It’s […]

Giving thanks.

Written by George and Rachel Barker on November 20, 2018. Posted in George's Happiness Blog.

My wish this Thanksgiving is for each of us to take the time to be thankful, giving thanks to what we have, our families, friends and colleagues. This is a very crucial part of living a lifestyle of happiness. In today’s society, with 24/7 contact with friends, family (and people we actually don’t even know) […]

This time of year, there are all kinds of changes going on Leaves are turning color, trees are becoming naked, the ground is becoming soggier, the air is getting cooler and yes the dreaded/celebrated time change (at least still for most of us).

Are You Happy? Make it your Latest Fashion

Written by George and Rachel Barker on November 8, 2018. Posted in George's Happiness Blog.

Consider this: Fashion. Yes I said fashion – I mean, it is fall and fashion is society’s way of influencing our outer covering. If we are not careful, society will also attempt to influence our inner being – our soul. As this happens, we stop being who we are, and we become some version of […]

Stressed Out? Can’t Seem to Shake It Off?

Written by George and Rachel Barker on October 26, 2018. Posted in George's Happiness Blog.

You’re Not Alone. It is said that pressure is standing over a 5-foot putt to win the Masters Golf Tournament when you know you have trained as hard as you can train for this moment. Stress is standing over a 5-foot putt to win the Masters when you know you haven’t trained. For the non-golfer, […]

I think this is Fascinating! You?

Written by George and Rachel Barker on October 10, 2018. Posted in George's Happiness Blog.

Isn’t that fascinating! I was recently having a conversation with someone, who was telling me about something that was really fascinating to them. I could tell they truly were fascinated because of the emphatic way in which they were describing the event. Of course, it was something that was unfolding on a newscast and pertained […]

Procrastination: Are you guilty? Would you like to end the control it has over your life?

Written by George and Rachel Barker on September 29, 2018. Posted in George's Happiness Blog.
