The moment I read those words, I knew they were true. Goals and purposes are what drive us through the time stream into the future. They give our lives meaning even when our goals seem insignificant to others. When I first read those words, many years ago, I was very sick. I started to cry because I realized that my illness had robbed me of every goal I had ever had for this life....
No flaws. Filters got you looking flawless! How many times have you tweaked a picture in order to create an illusion that you were flawless? But in real life, pimples were everywhere, grey hairs are poppin’, and we see that mustache comin’ through. Though everyone has their imperfections (the one thing that makes everybody unique in their own way), we still strive to put on this seamless front. It isn’t limited to only our physical but also how we live our life....

Slow the (Bleep) Down Tell me if this sounds familiar: you empty your plate at the restaurant and feel just fine, but about 30 minutes later, you find yourself with a bellyache so excruciating that you want to curl up in a ball and cry. It takes approximately 15-20 minutes for your body to experience satiety (the feeling of fullness that occurs after a meal), so if you shovel your food down your throat without thought process, it’s awfully easy to overeat....
“You are what you eat.” We’ve all heard it a thousand times before. So when my mom showed up at my house over the weekend with a bunch of bananas, I should have known there was a good reason. “Hey, Mom. What’s with the bananas?” “Well, kiddo, you told me you had a rough week, and I read somewhere that bananas were good for reducing your stress levels.” So I ate a couple bananas, and I started to feel better....
Okra is actually a fruit. A fruit is defined as anything that contains seeds. Okra has seeds and is therefore a fruit, but because it lacks the sweetness of a pineapple or an apple, it is regarded as a vegetable. Okra is also called ladies’ fingers. Perhaps if the vegetable went by it’s alternate name, it would have more fans. When storing okra for later use, never wash it as the moisture will cause it to become slimy....
The Internet lifestyle could be likened to financial freedom, when you’re in charge of affairs, you can travel the world of your dreams, sail the Pacific if you want, live in nice environment where the sounds of morning birds ooze out from the riverbanks. You looked at your life (and the current business you run), and you’re not even close to financial security — let alone freedom. The world seems abstract from your end, and you keep asking yourself: Don’t be perturbed — there is a way out of every ugly situation....

They’re great for watching movies and browsing through social media. However, when you need to do a math equation for school or work, the last device you’ll reach for is a tablet. Sony came up with a solution to this universal concern by introducing digital paper. From faraway it looks like a normal sheet of paper. But don’t be quick to crumble it into a ball and throw it away....
A couple of months ago Leo wrote an article entitled “Toss Productivity Out” and to most productivity geeks and ninjas the initial reaction to that post would include a shriek and maybe a gasp. What would my life be like if I toss productivity out? I’m certainly not going back to the pre-productivity chaos that was my life. But Leo’s concept is about letting go, not living life constantly striving to achieve more, faster, and better....
Procrastination fills us with shame — we curse ourselves for our laziness, our inability to focus on the task at hand, our tendency to be easily led into easier and more immediate gratifications. And with good reason: for the most part, time spent procrastinating is time spent not doing things that are, in some way or other, important to us. There is a positive side to procrastination, but it’s important not to confuse procrastination at its best with everyday garden-variety procrastination....
1. You will have fewer friends. The quality of your friendships improves as you reach 30. You are not concerned with having a lot of friends; rather, you are more concerned about having the right friends. 2. You will have more weddings to attend. You’ll be attending more wedding ceremonies than you did you were younger or perhaps you’ll be visiting families more rather than going on vacations. 3. You will become more selective....

Dating in general is equivalent to a 100-yard dash. You “go out there” to meet someone you could spend the rest of your life with. When you were single, the world may have felt full of possibilities, and going on dates may have been exciting. Dating after divorce can be met with more trepidation than a dental visit to have a tooth extracted—it can be painful and scary. There Is Still Life After Divorce You’ve been through so much pain and loss, finding that excitement you felt about dating before you were married can now feel non-existent....
