About this site
If you are ready to take control of your life, you have come to the right place! On this site, you will find lots of plain advice that will point you toward becoming more “solution focused”. Being solution focused means that you approach life with an attitude that you can handle and solve any problem that comes your way. Not only can you get through problems, but you can grow and prosper as a result of the process of problem solving.
I will will show you step by step how I have found solutions to different problems in my life. Some of my solution experiences have been life changing, and others are very minor or humorous. Some topics addressed are weight loss, finances, parenting, relationships and mental health issues. Many of my solutions are still works in progress.
I am, by no means, an expert in all the areas I write on, except that I do consider myself to be the expert when it comes to my own experiences in life. In addition to my own experiences, I have had unique opportunities to help others address major life problems as a social worker. The experiences I have had in this capacity have contributed significantly to my understanding and insight about the things I write about.
Even if you do not have the same problems that I have come across and which are directly discussed, this website can help you to develop the philosophy and attitude of becoming solution focused. I have found this approach in life to be the most freeing, rewarding and the most productive.
I am not here to complain, whine or wish for life to get better. I believe that to every problem, there is a solution. Be willing to identify the problem, take responsibility, explore the options, put in whatever work it takes, and you will find ways to resolve the negative issues in your life. There is no situation that is truly hopeless. To understand more about who I am, please see “About Brooke“.
