“Change brings opportunity.” – Nido Quebin

The new PluginID is still underway and I am truly excited to share the outcome to everyone. And yes, there are changes – a facelift, as Adam would call it. PluginID is evolving, and the steps that we need to take is underway.

Hi, my name is Raquel, the new torch-bearer for PluginID.

First, I would like to thank Adam for passing the torch. This is a whole new journey for me and I know that there are learnings and “aha” moments along the way. And thankfully, that’s what PluginID is all about – experiencing new things that open up a new chapter in one’s life and learning from others as they share their own stories.

Even though PluginID is getting...

What is my Purpose in Life?

BY Adam

This is not the typical personal development post because it deals with questions that are fundamental to achieving true and lasting happiness. Most people who claim to be plugging into their identity have not answered these most basic questions. They do not have clarity of purpose and without that, one can never achieve what I call, being fully alive.

It Always Starts with Your Thoughts

If you are going to do anything worthwhile in life, you must start by changing your thinking. You must answer some very basic questions about what I like to call ultimate questions.

Someone very wise once said, “change is the only constant in life.”

And that is certainly true for PluginID. This is Adam, the owner of this blog and I have some good news and some bad news. How about the good news first?  This blog has some exciting things happening in the near future. For example, PluginID has a new writer, moi!  Here is a recent photo of my family and me. This was taken while on our vacation to Palm Desert this past June.

Welcome to PluginID 2.0

We interrupt our regular programming for a brief announcement from the owner of PluginID.com, Adam O’Connor.

PluginID is in the process of going through an ambitious transformation. The website was started a few years ago by Glen Alsopp, the well-known owner of viperchill.com.  The success he’s gained since leaving the site far outweighs anything we’ve accomplished with PluginID, and yet our little site continues to chug along, refusing to give-up, despite its lack of attention. We have Glen’s early work to thank for this, but today things are far from perfect and I take full responsibility for that.

Don’t Take Things Too Seriously

The rest of the world, including me, takes things way too seriously.

So what if you fail at implementing self-improvement advice? I’ve failed countless times in my fight to get organized and acquire laser-like focus.

So whut if you make a couple of speling errors or typos? It doesn’t change the person that you are and it’s not that big of a deal because people understand you 90% of the time when you make a mistake anyways. And this is coming from a person who’s a total grammar Nazi. Do typos bug me? Yeah. But do they matter, in the grand scheme of things? Not really.

For all the serious stuff we preach — like getting your life into order, figuring out how to live “well”, cultivating good habits — we hardly ever take a step back and laugh at ourselves, at the absurdity that we feel like we need to absorb all these self-improvement concepts in order to live a good life.

You don’t, guys. Life isn’t that serious. It’s a tragicomedy,...
