Newness

Just as you think you have something going well and straight and regular, it’s time to shake it up! Really. How long can you keep the same straight, regular going – and have it be enjoyable to you or to your colleagues, your readers…?

It’s got to always have a lot of pizazz! A lot. And you may come up with ideas that don’t work, but you may come up with a lot that do! And you get into the habit of creating newness, creating life.

In the comments are some ways I’m thinking of playing with newness on the Positive Psychology News Daily site.

    * QUESTION FRIDAYS. The same question to three authors or three guest answers.

    * AUTHOR SATURDAYS. Have an author highlighted – a bio of the author, and some questions to the author, including, “What are some of the most interesting results in Positive Psychology?” “What was the most surprising result when you studied Positive Psychology last year?” “What new research that you’ve heard about has been the most exciting for you?!”
