I Think; Therefore I Care....

Since last week, the answers to many of your questions were thought-prooking, honest, reflective and well-written, I decided a few more good ones would serve you all well.
Keep in mind, these posts are private, they are read only by me and each of you and thatI will, as I did last time, answer them as well.
They are also a quiz grade, so take your time and THINK.

1. Do I ever settle for less than I know I deserve?  If so, why? If not, why?
2. Am I judgemental? 
3. Am I mostly positive or mostly negative about things? Why?
4. Do I pray only when I want something?
5. Do I have a high expectation of other people, and their actions?  If so, why? If not, why?

Think think think. And when you're done, think some more. <3

"I Think; Therfore, I Am"

There is an old proverb that says, basically, if you cannot ask you cannot live. Well, it sounds deeper and more profound than that but I can't think of the exact wording.
Carefully consider the questions below, and do your best to reflect and answer them as honestly as possible.

1. What am I grateful for?
2.  Am I honest?
3.  What do I need to change about myself?
4.  Do I know what my talents are and do I utilize those talents?
5.  When I help someone, do I think, "what's in it for me?"

Again, answer honestly--no one will judge you, especially me.  In fact, I will answer them too.

"Suffer the Little Children..."

At some point, I will probably write an OP about crappy childhood memories that shaped my life etc etc, blah blah blah...Everybody has a story and for better or worse, our childhoods are what set us on the path to adulthood. Sometimes the harder and more painful they are, the better off we become-- as crazy as that sounds.  Sometimes, the opposite happens. It all depends on the person, the memory, the childood etc.
So, this week, I would like you to dig deep and think about your most memorable childhood moment.
What was it?
Did it shape the way you look at things, the way you act toward people and the way you look at yourself?
Why?

Success

What is your definition of success?
How will you know if you have achieved it?  How did your definition of it come to be what it is?
Has it changed over the years?
