When connection is lost, we will try almost anything to fix it

In the study called Rat Park conducted by Professor Alexander the study suggests that humansakso have an innate need to bond with other humans. When we don't bond in a healthy way, we will bond in other ways, with other things, to try and fill that need.

“...Social attachments enhance health and happiness while social isolation increases stress, impaired health, and death.”

Cacioppo, J.T. et al. (2015) The neuroendocrinology of social isolation. Annu. Rev. Psychol. 66, 733–767

When we can’t find connection, we’ll create a counterfeit version of it. In the movie Castaway, Tom Hanks made an imaginary friend out of a volleyball. He even grieved when his fake friend floated away! If you haven't seen the movie... go watch it.

Struggling with feelings of isolation and loneliness? We understand, but we must fight to stay connected to people that care about us.

A meaningful connection is a connection in your life that really means something to you. It is valuable and worth your time and energy. Who are the people in your life that you would consider to be meaningful?

“I never lose. I either win or learn.” ~Nelson Mandela
Use rewards to celebrate your success. Even if you don’t reach your goal, make sure to celebrate what you learned through the process.

You decide what to do with your life. No one else can or should make those decisions for you. You have to decide what you want and why to choose the path that will get you where you want to be.

Many people know what they want. Some even know how to get it. Very few people know why they want it. If we don’t understand why then we lose motivation and often end up quitting. We need the inner motivation of the big WHY!
