It’s simple to formulate one future. One path. One outcome you want to see come to fruition. And we start running in that direction. Because this is what will help accomplish our goals and achieve success. And what happens when that opportunity doesn’t open up for us? When someone or something has selected against us. […]
Don’t Wash Your Hands?
Washing your hands more than twenty times a day makes you 2.8 times more likely to contract dermatitis. Sounds crazy right? Well, maybe we don’t wash our hands twenty times a day. Btu shouldn’t it be even safer? Sanitation is really, really effective at cleaning and avoiding disease. But have you ever noticed that most […]
Put In The Reps
A photography professor at the University of Florida had his class split up into two groups. One group was told that their grade was determined by the quantity of photos they’ve taken. That is, the more photos they take, the better their score. The other group was told that they will be judged on the […]
Better To Be a Beginner Than Not Play
It can be easy to stay on the sidelines when we don’t feel qualified enough for a pursuit, and yet say we still want to eventually reap the benefits.

It’s good to pay a bit for some home security, even if nothings been reported in your area. It’s good to […]
Important or Urgent?
Think about what you have been worrying about this past day. All the mental and physical effort and energy that has gone into it. The question is, how will you think about it a year from now? Will you look back on it thinking it was worth all the time on it? Or will you […]
The Antidote To Chaos
When many people consult Ramit Sethi on dealing with situations of tremendous debt, they often find themselves in despair over how they can pull themselves out of such places.

It’s Your Dream, Define It
One of the reasons I asked you to think about your time dials a few days ago is because it’s actually quite difficult for us to think about what we are actually striving towards and using that as inspiration for our actions. There’s certain areas we want to cover like security, comfort, health, and freedom, […]
It’s Not The Best Time
But when is it really? When Gutenberg developed the printing press, 92% of the world couldn’t read. It wasn’t the best time. When the car was released to purchase for consumers, it was illegal to drive a car, and there were no roads or gas stations. It wasn’t the best time. Even when Apple made […]
