'I did' captures both scenarios. To have written: 'I have. I did. I did. I am' is frankly, preposterous ;)

It's a possibility. But is it a satisfying answer? Can it really be as simple as that?

Without wishing to cause offence to anyone who holds religious beliefs... I can understand the need for evolutionary beliefs - ie to protect us from danger. But why the distinct and common need to believe in a higher power? That's not going to save our lives (in this world at least). Maybe we...

I have. I did. I am.

I understand all of what you've said. My question goes deeper though that mere habit. What is it within us that needs a belief system - be it spiritual or otherwise?

Why is that? Why is belief so fundamental to self?

I like that approach, Jon. I prefer logical, quantitative decision making when it comes to the bigger decisions in life. Well, nowadays at least. In the past I've been impulsive and emotive. My happiness is rooted in where I live, moreso than the job I do. I can quantify that and work out a...

No, Doc - I don't think it's beneath me. I'm thrilled to be considered and headhunted. It just feels like a backward step as I did something similar 2 years ago, and enjoyed it, but I do feel as though I've done it before and the only things I would learn come from being in a larger organisation.

My Nana was a depository and dispenser of wisdom. She had two pieces of advice that have always stuck with me: 1. If you do what you always do, you'll get what you always got. (ie - no change without change) 2. Say what you are going to do, then do it. Without wishing to sound trite, it's the...

Correct and correct. Go to the top of the class.

I think happiness is both intangible and indefinable. It means something different to each of us. Some equate happiness with success. What does success look like? Some equate happiness with love, or belonging. I am happy and it comes from being comfortable with who I am. I'm kind, but I can be a...

I had an unsettling dream last night. I was lost although I knew where I was - everything was familiar, but when I looked closer, I didn't recognise anything. Every time I had a decision to make about which direction to take, a close friend kind of materialised, talked to me and then gently...

On a very basic level, your mind is putting into order the experience you had on the stair climber - and equating it with a hard to obtain goal.

I LOVE this. I'm very much of the 'what doesn't kill you makes you stronger' school of thought (though I also appreciate that's it's not always so easy and everyone's circumstances and experiences are different).

Okay, I'll start. My current situation is: I love my job I have a decent salary I'm about to buy a house - I move in about 6-8 weeks within the area where I currently live My friends live close by - or within a reasonable driving distance My location would be hard to beat as I'm a minute from...

No... Perhaps we'd better book you in as an emergency case.

Yes - we can't use Trello at work... Bloody IT nanny-state policies. So I have to abide by the corporate software.

I'm Irish. It's fine. However, should you feel the need to be schooled on the correct use apostrophies, then there is a place ready and waiting for you in Aunty Bee's Attitude Readjustment Clinic.

I am currently setting up my to-do lists and risk registers for each project on OneNote. I don't know why I didn't think of it sooner.

Your And was fine. And it's either OK, or okay. Never OKay. Unless you are Irish, but then you'd need an apostrophe - and don't get me started on those.
