Hej Everybody,
How are you today?
You might be wondering, ” Harken, why go with Awkward?” Well in this blog I will tell you why I went Awkward Mode when it comes to my books and other writing. Now when I am using the term awkward, I mean more on the light-hearted weird traits us humans have. Some things these days have taken awkwardness too far and that’s coming from an awkward person. Oh! Here’s a fun game: Count how many times I mention the word AWKWARD in this blog and leave it in the comments below.
1. I AM NATURALLY SOCIALLY AWKWARD
No it’s not a gimmick. I am a socially awkward person. Been like that since I was a little dziecko and I just grew into an Awkward Confidence. Am I that stand in the corner, hair in front of my face, possibly scare people away socially awkward?…Nie. I am more of the confident yet awkward person who is able to socialize somewhat normally in public, I just don’t like to. I do have my Big Gulps Huh?….Welp see you later! moments. Yes that is a Dumb and Dumber reference. Now that I think of it, I have a lot of those moments. So my awkwardness is more apt to make people laugh or cock their head in confusion. Either reaction I get a laugh, so I am a winner either way. Which goes into my next point:
2. It Brings Laughter
Whether it’s me laughing or you, my awkwardness tends to bring laughter. Confusion at 1st but then laughter proceeds. Unless you just don’t have that kind of humor then you will continue to stay confused.
3. It Can Break Other Awkward Barriers
Let’s face it, we have all been awkward or have had those awkward moments before. Don’t lie. Well when you run into confident awkward folk like myself it will neutralize the awkward awkwardness you were experiencing before that awkward Harken walked in to banish the original awkwardness. Ach! That sentence was awkward.
4. It Makes Others Feel Better About Their Awkwardness
Awkwardness can make people become shy. They may isolate themselves and not want to have to deal with the repercussions of their awkward side. Well when you have a Harken that embraces the awkward side of life, then the situations turns from weird to goofy…well it may still be weird but goofy has entered the mix. What does goofiness bring? Humor. And what does humor bring? Smiles and laughter. See my awkwardness is a great service to humanity.
5. Awkwardness Can Be Intriguing
I have been called many adjectives in my life but boring, dull, mundane…..nie. Being Intriguingly Awkward and confident with it can bring a certain spice to life. In a sense, a raw authenticity if this trait is innate to you. Not the people who overdo it to get attention, that’s just a pseudo awkwardness. Look at your pets. They have their awkward moments. Do they get embarrassed. Not at all. Does it bring you joy and laughter into your day. Of course! Well that’s a big purpose in my writings especially my books. Not only to give you some good healthy information but to bring some joy and laughter into your day.
So there are the main reasons why I chose the Awkward route. How I manage it you ask?… It’s an awkward thing. I don’t even know half the time. Let me know your fun awkward moments in the comments below. Whether you are an awkward person yourself or stern like a persian cat’s face, dzięki for reading.
If you want to get your finances in order while getting a few laughs in then I suggest ordering yourself a copy of my new book: Money & Why’d You Have To Spend It On That? Also if you have more spare time to fill, pick up a copy of Health & Not Screwing It Up while you are at it. Might as well get your health and finances in tip top shape. I will include a link to a blog that has all the links you need:

Okay, so what book am I going to suggest you read during a dull moment now. Hmmmmm…….. Let’s try:
How Not To Die by Dr. Michael Greger
This book discusses the one diet that can alter your chances for the better when it comes to the top disease-related killers in America all backed by science and evidence. Dr. Greger goes into how this diet not only prevents these diseases but can cure and even reverse many of these ailments. It is an easy and interesting read packed with facts to change your mind about your diet.
Some of my favorite quotes from the book:
“The primary reason diseases tend to run in families may be that diets tend to run in families.”
“Mother Nature’s powers cannot be stuffed into a pill.”
The above link is an Amazon Affiliates link which I get a percentage at no extra cost to you. Woo! But seriously, getting paid aside, this is an excellent read.
Enjoy! Have a good day! Pa pa!
