I’d like to say as a Clinical Psychologist and man “of a certain age,” that my wife and I never fight. But, that would be untrue. I’d like to say that each and every time we begin to fight, we’re able to put on the brakes, call a time out, and pull out of the downward spiral. That also would be untrue.

Bill Richardson wanted to President. No dice. He wanted to be Secretary of State. No dice. Instead Obama chose him to be his Commerce Secretary. Guess what? No dice on that too.
Are you realistic or unrealistic when setting your New Year's Resolutions or weight loss goals?
An example of a realistic goal is to say 'you are going to give up soft drinks and replace them with water in 2008', and an unrealistic goal is to say you are going to lose 100 lbs by doing so. Realistically, if you drink one soda a day, that ONE CHANGE could lead to 15 pounds of weight loss! Imagine if you drink 6 or more how much weight you can lose?
