1. Don’t be shy. Ask your co-workers and your boss questions to help you settle into your work and have a better understanding of the company. Find out the answers to questions like: “How do you prefer I check in with you, via email or phone?” “How has this work process been done before?” “What results do you want to see with this client within the next six months?” And so on....

The key reason why it’s so hard to find lasting love is easy to understand once you know what happens in the opening stages of a relationship.

Today it is a little barbaric to go around and just kill people. Sadly, we still do it. Only now, instead of a hatchet we use our massive egos to kill the things that we are most threatened by. The ego thrives on fear and keeps us in a primal, fight-or-flight state. In this state, we behave like wild animals. Unfortunately, we can never fully destroy the ego. The only thing that we can do is tame it through social domestication and training....

That just sounds like a skinny guy to me. Wait. Now add into the mix a swollen stomach, a lack of confidence, and self doubt that could be seen through the foggiest of winter mornings.

What you’re going through isn’t as uncommon as you might think[1]. According to a recent study published in JAMA Network Open, depression has been three times higher during this pandemic than it was previously [2].

First, take a small, clear plastic bag, and rip a hole in the bottom. Don’t use scissors; you want a random edge. Second, slip the bag around the lens (yes, this works only on a camera with a standard lens, not a pocket camera)....
We have no control over how quickly time passes; especially with so many demands on our time and energy for everyday matters, we can easily feel overwhelmed and swept. As a result, we may feel helpless or as if time is working against us. While you can’t control time itself, you can control how you spend it. It is much preferable to spend one hour of high quality time on things that are important to you than ten hours doing things that are not time-worthy....
