An example of daily routine is to wake up and catch up with the daily news in the newspaper over a hot cup of tea. Getting to know the world better, read whatâs happening around the world and if possible even get to participate in the discussions with the help of some means. With the increase in the literacy rate, the print media got a strong foothold in the country and started churning out latest news in print medium. This not only helped in circulation of the news on a da
You’ve woken up in the morning and made breakfast for yourself and your family; you’ve taken the kids to school before heading to work. During your lunchtime, you manage to grab a bite whilst paying the bills because they’re piling up, and you don’t want to pay the late penalty fee. You finish work, and you come home. You grab a cup of tea, and you take the kids to their sports game. Once that’s done, you bring them home so they can get their homework done whilst you prepare dinner.
Life can seem like a real bummer sometimes, can’t it? Things are going along pretty good and all of a sudden wham…something hits you from left field and knocks you to the ground. We’ve all experienced these moments in our life, and sometimes you just want to crawl in bed and sleep until the entire situation is resolved.
Lie #7: The Devil wants you to believe that heâs stronger than God. I heard a lady say one time that she wouldnât pray out loud because she was afraid that the devil would intercept her prayer before it got to God. Thatâs giving the devil more power than God, and thatâs a mistake. nnLie #6: The Devil wants you to believe that this world is all there is. That youâd better spend all your time getting everything you can while youâre here. He wants you to get caught u
Life has a way of surprising us with challenges we didn’t expect, especially when it comes to our health. Studies show that some people deal with health issues with greater resiliency than others. They tend to rebound and take on difficult situations with confidence and hope. If you ...
We are souls in physical form, and we have an ego that is meant to serve us in specific ways. Frustration happens when we get their needs confused (or ignore them) rather than have them work together. Let’s look at some ways to differentiate between ego needs and soul needs.

Anthony Robbins once said, "If you can't, you must. If you must, you can." When it comes to taking control of life, successful people do not try. They make taking control a must. Think of a time when something in your life became a must. You just had to do it. There were no ifs, buts, or maybes. When you absolutely have to do something, you just do it.
If you’re anything like me you’ve probably spent more time than you’d like to admit trying to “fix” your various “flaws.” Although I may pretend otherwise, many of my own goals, desires, and even my motivation to “grow” has often come from a deep place of insecurity within me - thinking that if I could just fix what was wrong with me, then everything would be okay.
Some people make living their best life and creating success look so easy, don’t they? And yet, many successful people will tell you it’s not actually easy for them, they just rely on their strengths to pull them forward and over the rough spots. Below are 15 characteristics of the happiest, ...

Peter Drucker wrote some years ago that the definition of an executive is someone who is expected to get results. You are an executive to the degree to which results are expected of you. You don’t have to have a staff or an office to be an executive. All you have to do is be a person in ...
Staying healthy is the goal of most people. As I look at our healthcare system, it has never been as important as it is today to be proactive in staying healthy. Between the expense healthcare and medication, the threat to your financial stability and the questionable "scientific" data that supports that taking a million, kazillion (I know this is not a valid term) drugs is acceptable, I'd say one had better do everything possible to maintain their health as naturally and as cost effectively as possible.

This automatically freed more energy to enjoy your life because you're no longer battling the critical negative voice that all of us sometimes hear. Instead, you've begun the joyful process of learning how to transform your inner critic into an empowering inner coach that will cheer you toward mo
Authentic Accountability Accountability is the backbone of success. Without accountability, dreams, and ambitions will almost always fall by the wayside. With accountability, motivation levels go up, things get done even when the effort doesnât seem worth it, and goals get accomplished. So why donât more people use accountability to propel them forward? Some people donât have a good understanding of how to use accountability or they tend to misuse accountability by sett
WHY DOES SELF-DOUBT REAPPEAR AFTER PERSONAL GROWTH? You’ve done so much work on yourself, and you love yourself more than ever. You began with the baby steps, like “I deserve a treat today!” Then you progressed through “I deserve better than that!” and “I really am OK just like I am!” You continued to graduate yourself through level after level of self-empowerment and found yourself saying, “I deserve to have everything I want, not just some of it.” So, why do you still som
How do you feel about celebrating? If you're anything like me and most of the people I know, you probably enjoy it. However, I notice that as much as I like to celebrate, I sometimes find it challenging as well. Here are some of the reasons that I use not to do it: - I don't have the time or money to celebrate right now, there's work that needs to get done - Things aren't yet as good as they "should" be for me to stop and celebrate - People will think I'm weird, naive, or obnoxious if I celebrate too much
Do you ever fantasize about leaving a ho-hum job to land your dream career? Follow your heart and protect your dreams because you deserve happiness at work. Just make sure you’ve mined all of the diamonds available in your current job before you accidentally sign up to scrounge for rhinestones in another location. Most of us have overlooked an exciting, lucrative career opportunity more than once. We’ve been like the diamond miners who threw away a fortune when they hurriedl
Bill Bullard said, “Opinion is really the lowest form of human knowledge. It requires no accountability, no understanding. The highest form of knowledge…is empathy, for it requires us to suspend our egos and live in another’s world.” Our society seems to admire highly ...
Could you do it? Have you ever thought or fantasized about it? Tell the truth have you ever sat and imagined what your life would be like if you sold all your belongings and moved to a brand new life? Where would you go; to live near a beach, to the desert, to a small quiet town from the city or a foreign country? Sounds a little extreme doesn’t it and probably not for everyone although I do know one person who has done this and lately I am hearing rumblings and reading about an increasing number of people who are considering it, doing it or at least talking about it.
We all experience having a short fuse at times, though some seem to have this more often. What’s really going on; and can two simple methods make a difference? Thoughts that motivated my recent article, “Do You Experience Mixed Feelings About Being Patient and Tolerant?” didn’t stop when I typed the last word. I’d likened getting to the end of your patience or tolerance to a glass filling with liquid until it spills over. It’s the same with losing—or loosing—your temper.

Emotional Clearing Technique n nThe following is a powerful exercise for strengthening âyour truthâ nIt is designed to clear limiting emotions, aligning the meridians nn(acupuncture energy channels), and to increase your focus and feeling of peace.

What makes suspense work in a novel? There’s quite a lot to know about this, but here are some highlights.
Addressing issues can be challenging for many of us. Many times we either ‘fight’ or ‘fly’ depending on how we were raised and how we saw our families of origin deal with conflict. ‘Fighting’ and ‘flying’ both lead to alienation and are aggressive and passive behaviors respectively. When we are passive in dealing with conflict we may feel powerless to change what we consider a ‘hostile dynamic’ so we react by withdrawing, retreating or hiding. This often results in blocks to communication.
When you listen to a life-changing seminar, a sermon or read a motivational book, in order to reap the fullest benefits of the information, you need to take it to the next level. Listening and reading is not enough. We need to internalize this information, allow it to become a part of us until we actually own it and manifest the fruit we desire to partake of. Exactly how do we absorb this information into us? 1) Acceptance If you cannot accept the information as truth for you then you'd never apply it and as a result it'd never work for you.
The Science of Creating your Dreams⦠nnSounds like an oxymoron doesnât it? nnHow can science possibly relate to dreams? nnOneâs hard and fast with proof and evidence, and one is airy-fairy fantasy and wishes. nnRight???? nnWell maybe and maybe not. nnLets take a look at a few things and see what we can see. nnIs electricity a dream? nnIn some parts of the world, yes, but itâs a real enough actuality in this country to the point that we feel we all have an inalienable
The challenge is how does one measure it? What is a reasonable expectation and what is asking too much? It doesn't mean that you never argue, are never upset or angry, always in love and always happy. If you expect perfection, you will always be disappointed. On the other hand, there are behaviors that can be forgiven and then there are those they are just not acceptable. How do you know which is which? That is what I am here to help you decide. A healthy relationship is one where: 1. You feel safe with your partner.
The Comfort Zone. It’s a place where ambition goes to retire. Where yesterday’s dream dissolves into the world of undiscovered possibilities. Where leaders become followers and the passionate become passive. There is no light at the end of the Comfort Zones tunnel. Just a dim haze of the unmanifested. The Comfort Zone is a sly and convincing place; often the dream doesn’t even realize it has stopped there. There's a warmth of security that’s abundant and wonderful. It always

To abbreviate or not to abbreviate—that is the question. In this day and age of texting, people are becoming adept at using abbreviations. However, this is not appropriate, for the most part, when writing fiction or nonfiction, unless your characters have dialogues that involve texting. You have to spell out the words. There is a lot more to know about abbreviations in creative and formal writing, of course, but here are several common occurrences writers are sometimes unfamiliar with or confused by.

An important life lesson that I learnt came from one of the golden rules in public speaking - focus on the connection, not the content. What this means is that the connection a speaker has with the audience is more important than the actual content of the speech.
Competing Commitments may be getting in the way of following your dreams. You say you’re committed to achieving a certain goal, yet your actions say otherwise. What you say and what occurs are total opposites. Your actions speak louder than words. Have you ever had this happen? Have you planned to change things in your life but the results don’t look at all like you expected? Things just seem to get in the way. Life’s just not fair! Why does everything happen to me? Hmmmm, are you ready to face the truth or would it be easier to stay in victim mode?
THE TRUTH ABOUT YOUR INNER CRITIC When you hear putdowns like “You’re not good enough” or “You’ll fail,” it’s difficult to imagine that your inner critic has been slaving away, nonstop, for most of your life . . . with your best interests in mind. What? Your inner critic is misguided, but its intentions are so pure and positive that most people eventually tear up with gratitude once they fully understand this puzzled part of themselves. You gave birth to your inner critic i
Even though our society seems to be restrained in discussions about Self-Worth, it needs to be included as part of everybody's success plans and strategies. It already affects all of us-in a negative, neutral, or positive way-so let's include Self-Worth as part of our awareness program. And ...
Have you ever said "Yes" when you wanted to say "No?" Are you ever angry because your needs are ignored? Your self-esteem will soar when you stop being who you think you "should be" and become the shining star you truly are. The world is starved for your unique talents, so it's essential that you manage your inner critic. . YOUR INNER CRITIC STRUGGLES TO PLEASE OTHER PEOPLE If you consistently strive to please other people, you have audios playing in the background of your
WHY TRADITIONAL APPROACHES FAIL TO PRODUCE THE HAPPINESS AND SUCCESS YOU WANT Most people are hungry for happiness. They're searching for real answers to age-old questions because much of what we've been taught is upside down and backward. For example, when people put on a happy face or try to adopt the attitude of fake it til you make it, even if they gain brief relief from their anxiety, they have to keep putting on a facade. This resistance to what exists drains the ener
When is it time to change? When you become aware of dissatisfaction in your life. What causes people to examine how they got caught up in their present situation?

In his book, "The 22 Non-Negotiable Laws of Wellness,"author Greg Anderson wrote, "Let us be about setting highstandards for life, love, creativity, and wisdom.

Setting high standards makes every dayand every decade worth looking forward to."nnHe also reminded us that, "When we change our perception wegain control.

Many years ago I read Dr Stephen Covey’s seminal work ‘The 7 Habits of Highly Effective People’. It made me think about the crucial difference that exists between being efficient and being effective. I came to define efficiency as ‘doing the job right’, whatever the job was. Effectiveness, on the other hand, I defined as ‘doing the right job right’.

How romantic are you? Quiz. It tends to be considered to be old fashioned now to be interested in charm, dating, getting to know someone and to use courtesy and court a lover. Holding hands, sending flowers, sending love letters and many other things can be a sign of living this lifestyle. But are you very much into it? Is it something which is important to you? Can you live without it? If you were with a partner who was NOT into this would this be a deal breaker? Are you so
