Many of us know the harmful effect of negativity. Napolean Hill, author of Think and Grow Rich says; "There is very little difference in people, but that little difference makes a big difference. The little difference is attitude. The big difference is whether it's positive or negative."

It is probably easier to be negative than positive. It is easy to slide into a blaming culture, the poor little old me mindset. We all know the importance of being positive and...

The rise and fall of ancient empires has developed parallel also to the establishment and destruction of advanced fruit tree orchards. Ancient fruit trees such as olive tree orchards increased the wealth and health of nations by feeding the populations, providing nutritious olive oil to light lamps in ancient houses at night, as food and a cooking medium, and for the purpose of anointing Kings and Queens. Olive trees could not produce continuous crops unless the gardeners growing them...

EMPATHIZE- I feel very sorry for women who have been socialized that "a man is a plan" and now have to "fend for themselves" after being widowed (often at an early age) or divorced. Trying to learn about finances when one is grieving is a recipe for disaster, as grieving is surely a full time job! Additionally women's family's money messages are particularly limiting, if not worse. Women's socialization has also placed huge hurdles in our paths towards understanding...

Let's do something really silly.  Pretend you're climbing a mountain and you notice the rope you're holding on to starts fraying.  You can see it's about to break at any moment.  Your climbing buddy next to you tells "don't worry, just have a good attitude and everything will work out."  You're probably thinking that an extra rope to hold on to would be much more useful than an attitude adjustment.  Of course, you'd be right.  It's obvious a good...

Good speakers and the components for a home-theater system cost less than ever. But selecting separate components can be time-consuming, and connecting them can be a challenge. You can avoid some hassle by buying an all-in-one "home theater in a box" system that combines a receiver with a set of matched speakers, wiring, and often a DVD player. Unless you're a serious music listener, you're likely to find the sound quality to be just fine.

Friendship between man and woman
Dalip singh Wasan, Advocate.

We may be having so may friends but we shall not be desiring that these friends should live with us in the same house for all the times to come, but when two people, a man and woman join together as husband and wife, they want that they should live together in the same house for the remaining part of their life. It means that God Himself created these two sexes so that they may not be alone in this world and...

Back in the 1960's, a famous psychologist named Fritz Perls used to say, "Lose your mind and come to your senses." It is only in recent years that I understand the profound wisdom inherent in that message. I now know the most important step we can take in our spiritual evolution is to stop identifying with our minds, so we may align with our Spiritual Essence.

When we "lose our minds" we do, indeed, come to our senses. The present moment of our lives becomes...

“He’s not here for me,” complained Hailey. “We don’t spend enough time together.”

“She’s too needy. I need space,” complained her husband, Ryan.

“He just does whatever he wants to do, with no concern for me,” countered Hailey.

“She’s so demanding that I just don’t feel like being with her lot. I wish she’d just back off. I need time with my friends.”
