When dealing with a problem, it’s all about perspective.
In the past, I’ve defined myself according to my accomplishments or standings; for example, my parents’ firstborn, the short black guy, a graphic designer, an actor, and so on. But what do you do when there are no new accomplishments? No visible forward movement? What do you do when life throws you a disruption of epic proportions and it becomes clear that the circumstances are out of your control?
Hey Clay,
Mine is an issue that has plagued women for years: how do you gently let down a man who fights the “letting down” process with every fiber of his being?
Hey Clay,
Back in the year 2001, I was in a sales position working with many Independently owned stores. In sales you build relationships with your customers and learn a lot about each other. I had a good amount stores owned or ran by families from the Middle East.
Then 9/11 happened.
And we’re back! Thanks for your support in 2015. You made #HeyClay a huge success last year. You’d be surprised how many people were facing similar situations to the ones mentioned in the posts. You’d be even more surprised to find out how many people were helped in facing and embracing their challenges.
Hey Clay,
What advice can you give me to achieve a healthier mind, body & spirit balance in my life?
Hey, Clay.
I’m a little confused on the #blacklivesmatter movement. What is the message, and what do they want us to know about it. I have yet to receive a clear message on what it stands for. I know it has created spin offs like #alllivesmatter and #copslivesmatter. I know they want more policing of the police. What do they recommend we do to support them?
Hey, Clay.
This election season there’s so many candidates to choose from. It’s like they’re all saying the same thing. What do you think of Donald Trump?
Looking for the way home,
Dorothy Gale
Hey Clay,
I need your help navigating one of society’s emerging new awkward situations.
Hey, Clay.
I have always been very independent from a young age. I was the child that my parents were always proud of and boasted about. They still do to this day and tell everybody, “Our child is living the dream life, we are so proud.” Unfortunately something is missing. We have never made the transition from parent-child relationship to parent-adult relationship. I’m having issues with this.
