I quickly realized a trend in my office. Employees often asked to speak with the other people in my office, but they never asked to speak with me. And sometimes I just wanted someone to want me.
2 Lies We Believe About Our Schedules
In our culture, we place a lot of emphasis on our calendars—whether they're on our walls, our desks, or our phones. We don’t always evaluate our priorities and decide what should take precedence in our lives. Instead, we rush from one activity to the next.

The 3 Greatest Fears of Introverts
Introverts are often stereotyped as people who are unable to carry on a conversation, unable to have fun at parties, and unable to spend more than a few minutes at a time with people.

But I'm also willing to admit that introverts do have a lot of fears related to social situations—including these three fears.
Better Than Boredom
Like every other season of life, you can make this the best or the worst of times. So choose your activities well. Don’t waste a moment. If you do nothing else this summer, learn to lean more on Christ and less on yourself.
