But now it seems like all the coffee drinkers out there have actually got the right idea. I was wrong and I’m not afraid to admit it. Studies show that there may be actual health benefits associated with drinking coffee. A 60% lower risk of Parkinson’s disease and a 40% lower risk of liver cancer are two of the benefits that top the list. Check out the video for more details regarding why drinking coffee might actually be good for your health....
Eckhart Tolle, international best selling author of The Power of Now and A New Earth, explains in his blog: The more we attach ourselves to being happy and living a happy life, the more unhappy we become. A happy life is a by product of living a meaningful life. In order to live a meaningful life we must explore different ways to do so. 1. Accept what is. We perceive our own reality....
According to Culling, they drove 5km to get them sent home. “Got them for 50 bucks drove 5km up the road and let them go.” said Culling on his facebook. Those are not the only 2 turtles they have saved because they have rescued 10 turtles already! Credits: https://www.thedodo.com/man-sets-sea-turtles-free-1497009220.html
Siblings are like…you don’t show your love easily, or the way you express it is just weird…But as time goes by you know they’re always the most valuable ones that you’d never want to lose.
Imperfection is beauty, madness is genius and it’s better to be absolutely ridiculous than absolutely boring. By Marilyn Monroe [Instagram] [Lifehack Quote] I believe all of us are perfectionists in our own right. I’m a perfectionist, too. We set high bars for ourselves and put our best foot forward to achieve them. We dedicate copious amounts of attention and time to our work to maintain our high personal standards. Our passion for excellence drives us to run the extra mile, never stopping, never relenting....
You know you’re in love when you can’t fall asleep because reality is finally better than your dreams. By Dr. Seuss Now, I’ll put my hands up right now and tell you that I’ve screwed up my fair share of relationships. I still get tongue-tied when I see a beautiful woman, I’ve pushed people away to protect myself and I’ve run round and round in circles wondering how things ’should’ be done....
A friend is someone who knows all about you and still loves you. By Elbert Hubbard Seven simple ways to ruin your friendships
For me, one way to do this is utilizing a simple but effective productivity tool — the classic timer. I’m a Pro Blogger. I write several posts a day. To facilitate my writing, I use a timer to help me focus. My standard operating procedure is to write a 500-word article in 1 hour. Here are my steps: I set my timer to 20 minutes for drafting an outline. Then 30 minutes for writing the post, and another 20 minutes for proofreading and editing....
1. Pick the right platform. As crowdfunding rises in popularity, more and more big players are entering the field. To ensure success, it’s important to pick the right website for your campaign. First, decide whether you are offering equity or a small reward in exchange for an investment. Websites like Crowdfunder only allow campaigns that sell equity, debt or revenue-based securities, while others like Kickstarter offer investors small rewards at your expense....
Oxymoron, you say? Nope, you said wrong! People frequently clump shyness and introversion together as the same thing, it’s not. It was an ah-ha moment when I learned the actual definition of introversion. It has nothing to do with shyness, which is a fear of social situations. An introvert is someone who is introspective by nature. Engaging in said introspection is what recharges an introvert. This is to say, being alone to sort through one’s conscious feelings and thoughts is imperative to the introverted person....
1. Learning new skills Even if you’re simply going to hire specialists to do your programming, web design, and marketing, you still need to know at least a decent amount about each area of your business. For example, nothing aggravates a graphic designer more than having spent hours and hours working on a project only for a rather ignorant client to reject it while saying “It’d be better if…” However, if you have a general idea of what makes a good design, you’ll be able to discuss with your designer the most effective way to get what you want....
For long periods of suffering, take it day by day. Don’t anticipate. Being gregarious and upbeat wins you more attention from the staff. This isn’t fair, but it’s true. A lot of living goes on in the course of dying. Don’t postpone things—like seeing friends—until you’re “doing better.” You may never do better. If a friend is sick, show your concern. Don’t assume he or she will know, or will ask for your help....
1. Do not forget to mention the other person’s name. Mentioning the name of the person that you are talking to always makes the other person feel that you are sincere and that you do pay attention. An example is: A: How was your trip to Cancun, Griselda? B: It was very good, thank you! A: That is great? Griselda, can you give me some recommendations on what to visit in Cancun if I go?...
There is a famous saying, “Youth is wasted on the young.” It would appear that young people have the world at their feet. The reality is, however, that they lack the clarity of someone who has gained those life lessons that enables real happiness. A recent study [1] revealed that the happiest people are the over 50s. An astounding 61% said they were happier and enjoying life more. Even more interesting was the fact that more than half had been travelling, one in five planned to learn a new language and one in ten were learning to play an instrument....
I’m guilty of this. While I was always a runner, I didn’t run my first marathon until I was 31 years old. That began my love affair with endurance racing. I am now in training for my first Ironman triathlon, so the relationship has grown stronger over the years. So what are the benefits of endurance training? Why the appeal? What would make a presumably sane person want to spend hours running, swimming, or biking?...

1. “Our schools are not teaching students to think. It is astonishing how many young people have difficulty in putting their brains definitely and systematically to work…” Millennials are given a lot of flak for feeling entitled to success without putting in the work. This isn’t anything new. Edison noticed the same phenomena in his day and attributed it to our education system. To stick out, all you have to do is stick it out....
