When life is difficult and discouraging
Life can get really difficult & discouraging at times & make you want to crawl under a rock in defeat. Don’t. Rest if you have to, but dontgiveup. This is not the end of your story. It’s not only OK to TakeaTimeOut & consider your options & re-strategize. It’s wise. — Zero Dean (@ZeroDean) January ... Read more See images on site...

What’s feared and what’s weird
Both what’s feared & what’s considered weird often stem from a lack of knowledge & understanding. Preserving an inquisitive & openmind not only reduces fear & the reflex to condemn differences, it increases tolerance & opportunities and builds bridges instead of walls. — Zero Dean (@ZeroDean) January 25, 2019 See images on site...

It’s time to stop glorifying zero f*cks given
Enough with celebrating & promoting not caring & no f*cks. If you think not caring is #solvingProblems, *you* are a part of the #problem. Not caring about everything is a #dysfunctional extreme, just like being #offended by anyone with a different opinion (or a #joke) to tell is. [Note: I wrote about this in 2013 (and a ...

Who benefits from the status quo?
#FunFact: Those who #benefit & #profit from the current state of the world don’t want it to change. They want to ensure the #statusquo even if it’s at your expense. Because when *they’re* benefitting, to hell with everyone else. Ah, the #freedom of #wealth & few #consequences — Zero Dean (@ZeroDean) January 22, 2019 See images on site...

Celestial discrimination
I have an #idea! We should #judgepeople based on WHEN they were born. We can TELL them what kind of person they are, who they’re compatible with & even what kind of day they’re going to have. If we make it sound like #science they’ll just accept it! Nah. No one’s that #gullible — Zero ... Read more See images on site...

Things worth aspiring for
Even if #climatechange wasn’t real, so what? A #cleaner, #safer planet & #healthier, less #cancer-prone humans with harmonious #habits and fewer endangered species are bad things to aspire to because… OH SHIT. I forgot about #coal! — Zero Dean (@ZeroDean) January 22, 2019 See images on site...

Distrust, confusion & chaos are being used as tools
Regardless of where your loyalties lie, the fact is, there are efforts being made to manipulate people with misrepresented & distorted information. #Infighting, #distrust, #confusion & chaos are being used as *tools*. We can no longer simply accept what we are shown at face value — Zero Dean (@ZeroDean) January 22, 2019 See images on site...

A key to success that sticks
If you have 1 good idea or write 1 good phrase, people will steal it (even wealthy well-known people & companies have done this) #ThatsLife. #Success that sticks often requires not just 1 good idea, but a stream of many. #DontQuit! Get known for *many* good things, not just 1. — Zero Dean (@ZeroDean) January ... Read more See images on site...

Work to achieve goals regardless of the circumstances
#Goals. Yes, you can try to make your life & environment “perfectly suitable” to achieve your goal. But you become dependent on these circumstances to achieve it. Real effectiveness lies in becoming disciplined & focused enough to achieve goals regardless of the circumstances.

Thinking different hypocrisy
Many people who say they support uniqueness still negatively judge & actively reject things that are #different & openly mock creative displays of #personalexpression. If you truly support “different thinking”, positive feedback & #acceptance is far more #congruent than mockery.
