A boy loves a girl at first sight … She has a Lemonade stall across the street from his Orange Juice store … To impress her he works hard to make his stall a success … Not realising he was stealing her business, which accidentally upset her … They begin to compete with each other … Growing and growing their businesses … Until they are well and truly in competition with each other … And their businesses have grown to ridiculous heights Still living opposite each other … But now both burnt out and unsatisfied … The two taste their products only to be disgusted by how processed and tasteless it has become … When they venture into their factories they are shocked by how large-scale and processed it has become … Finally hitting the stop button on their game … As corporate greed turns their own constructions against them, they are thrown into the street to face each other … Remembering suddenly their original dreams, and how similar they actually were … Looking around at what they built, they decide to join forces … Downscale to fresh produce made with love … And work as the happy duo they were meant to be!...

How do you make sure that you’re eating efficiently without overthinking, over-planing, or over-analyzing food? You must have realized by now that along with a busy schedule, all the complicated concepts, thoughts, and rules on eating have created anxiety, wasted a lot of time, taken away a lot of joy, and made it more difficult for you to get fit. Ultimately, you just want to have a simple life where things land in place peacefully....

As an anonymous Internet user once famously said, “I accidentally used AOL.com to search for something today. I feel like everyone who worked there probably high-fived each other and felt hopeful about the future.” It’s undeniable that Google is the dominant force when it comes to Internet search engines. They are the biggest, which leads to their search results being amazingly in-depth, which arguably also makes them the best. As we know, Google can be used to search for absolutely anything in the online world, but it can do a few more things that might surprise you....

The short answer? It depends. If you’re looking for a snack to satisfy your hunger without a sugar crash, then bananas do just as good a job as cookies — not a very good one. Does this mean you should grab a cookie instead of a banana from now on? I’d say not. Bananas still provide us with more nutrients than cookies. Check out this infographic to see where other foods fall on the satiety index....

We are often confronted by people who behave rudely in our everyday lives. And in turn, we have moments where we behave rudely. Impatience is usually a mitigating factor in most scenarios where someone has turned toward innapropriate abruptness. Being self-aware is the first step in dealing with boorish people without getting angry, but the way we respond to rude people depends on the setting. I Must Engage! As clever people, we are natural born leaders who don’t mind being uncomfortable....

Although a lot of our world now seems to be online (banking, shopping, travel tickets and so on), one thing that remains a physical object is a small 3X5 inch notebook, AKA a passport. Travelling is now easier than ever but you need a passport to get anywhere, however some nations have less access to the world than others. In this infographic designed by Ricky Linn for GOOD, we see that some passports may be a lot more privileged than others....

Here’s how ginger can make you feel more energetic every day. You’ll Reduce Inflammation Some of the many active ingredients in ginger are called gingerols, compounds which have been proven to have strong anti-inflammatory properties. This can help reduce your chances of developing many chronic, fatigue-causing conditions like heart disease or cancer. It can also help with the joint pain and stiffness that comes with arthritis, another debilitating condition....

Tell me about yourself. Typically used as an opening question to kick off the interview, this question can be frustrating since it is hard to determine what to cover as a brief introduction. When answering this one, stick to a script of less than a minute, focusing more on your most recent work experience than anything else. Do not babble about your entire work history and educational experience or you will become just a talking version of your written resume....

So what is systems thinking and why is it good for you? What Is Systems Thinking? Systems thinking is a diagnostic tool that can help you to assess problems before taking action. It helps you to ask questions before arriving at conclusions. It prevents you from making an assumption, which is the lowest level of knowledge. A systems thinker is curious, compassionate, and courageous. The systems thinking approach incorporates the act of seeing the big picture instead of seeing in parts....

1. Breathe the right way When we are too stressed, our breathing becomes fast and sharp. The right way to breath is to inhale and exhale deeply and slowly without any jerks. When you inhale, inflate your stomach as you fill in your lungs with oxygen. Deflate your stomach as you slowly exhale out. 2. Meditate Meditating calms and revitalizes the mind and makes you think clearly. If you are pressed for time, try this 10 minute-powerful meditation that will make your brain as refreshed as you feel when you wake up from deep sleep....

Stress has been indicated as a key factor in heart disease, stroke, and cancer. It breaks up relationships and ruins careers, and ultimately, it seems that the only thing you need to know about stress is this: get away from it. A lot of people think that stress and pressure are the same thing, so when they feel pressure, they try to do the same thing as when they feel stress: just get away....

I think most of us will find that we fit into question number two. I know I did. Until one day I asked myself some serious questions about where I was at in my life journey… Is this really where I see myself 20 years from now? Do I still feel fulfilled? Am I the person I spent my whole life wanting to be? No. Just like that, my entire life changed....

The problem might be worse than we expect. Maybe we don’t like ourselves without realizing it. Here is a simple checklist; is there anything you don’t like about yourself from these list? Your past Maybe you have made mistakes in the past which you feel bad about. You might be disappointed with yourself on why you could make such mistakes. Even if that happened in distant past, your subconscious mind still has a reason not to like yourself....

1. You need to give your “audience” what they want and desire. I’m sure you’ve heard the phrase, “what’s in it for me?” And I’m sure most of you reading this have thought or even said it yourself! We all have. Let’s face it: we’re all inherently self-centered. If something doesn’t make us happier or our lives better, we are not very interested in it. So in order to persuade your “audience” (whether it is an individual or an audience of 1,000 people), you need to tell them how it is going to benefit them....

One of the biggest factors that determine whether you get your task completed is effective time management. Without good time management, you will almost always fail. This was beaten into our heads by the Ranger School Ranger Instructors (RI)s: The RI would continually ask us what time was our time to be on target. Time on Target Time on target was the time that we had to accomplish a mission—everything else led up to that time....

Dreams are part of our lives and we cannot wish them away (as they are often in our subconscious minds), but as human beings we would rather fantasize than actually experience the challenges of what living out our dreams might entail. We know that living our dreams means we have to fight failure, frustration, monotony and long days in order to welcome success, jubilation and recognition, and as if our dreams know this, they encourage us to focus on the positive facets of realizing them....

Did you know that there were two versions of the song RESPECT? Each one of the versions had a different message and demonstrated what they believed to be the best way to get the respect they had desired. Let’s take a moment to point out a stark difference between the two versions. We will use these two songs to illustrate how to become a leader that people respect. What Not to Do to Gain Respect In 1965 the first version of RESPECT, by Otis Redding, came to the stage....

What to Look for in a Dentist In order to ensure that you are with a dentist who cares about his or her practice, there are some basic things that you will want to look for. The first is to ensure that they’re truly hygienic – that is, that the office is clean and sterile, and that the staff wears gloves and masks. The second thing that you want to explore is whether the office is easy to get to from your home or your work, and whether they can accommodate your schedule....
