Sometimes we overlook some qualities needed by old people to give them the assurance that we care and love them. To be a good caregiver means a lot of things, this kind of job does not come easy as it requires enormous time and patience to get it right. I have painstakingly outlined some essentially important qualities one must possess to be a good health giver....

We fall into a trap when we overlook problems. Have you ever had an uncomfortable feeling when you just knew what you were doing conflicts with what you know you should be doing? This is called cognitive dissonance and we have all had this feeling. Yet, cognitive dissonance can be a powerful motivator for changing your behavior. Think of the need for exercise. People will find all kinds of excuses to explain away their unhealthy habit of not exercising....

It is good to understand the right time and the right circumstances for you to bring in the professionals. This list will help you to make the right decision.

For me, it was through my extended family – my ‘grandmother’, a cousin, aunts, and uncles. My mother was adamantly against drinking and drug use; for good reason, as her childhood was hellish as a direct side effect of her mother’s addictions and compounded mental illness. I have always been an observant person, so even with her attempts to guard me I noticed things. I can recall the exact way the room smelled the first time I walked in on my cousin smoking marijuana....

Clouds come floating into my life, no longer to carry rain or usher storm, but to add color to my sunset sky.

There can be a lot of stigma around SAD due to lack of understanding and just writing it off simply as “winter blues,” but it is crucial to go see a professional if you suspect you might be suffering. Here are some other things associated with SAD that are simply not true. SAD is interchangeable with the “winter blues” During the winter, it can be quite common for individuals to feel a change in their mood and loss of energy due to the sun setting earlier and the temperature getting colder....

A logo is a statement of a business or a company and a sign of individuality, which distinguishes one brand from another. Even a child would recognize the M of the McDonalds, even from far away. The people use the logo to associate with the brand or the company. Creating and setting up a business is easy, but making it a brand is difficult. To make your business a brand, the most important thing is to create an eye-catching logo design....

People want to lose weight really fast (myself included). We fantasize about having a flat stomach, a leaner body, in just weeks. Two weeks would be ideal. Of course, that’s bunk. Let’s take a closer look at what it would take to lose weight in 4 weeks: About 2/3 of American adults are overweight or obese, and have more than 20 lbs. to lose. If you’re trying to lose 20 lbs....

But of course, you could create a discouraging poster too. Imagination is only the limitation here. Motivator: Inspire! Motivate! Mock! – [John Watson]

Well, Doug’s wife just had a baby, and between that and the fact that their Tuesday guy couldn’t take the heat and had to throw in the towel(I hear he was a slacker), they need a writer. You’ve gotta be able to turn out a piece a week, and it’s got to be of fairly decent writing quality (Doug’s a great editor). So, if you’re looking for a way to get involved in the productivity and life hacking and organization writing space (and really, who isn’t?...

can’t help doing and we swear we will never do again. Nobody is perfect and everybody has limiting habits—some more than others—but we generally notice our harmful habits once they are already limiting us in some way and we find ourselves saying things like “I wish I could just be more…” or “I wish I didn’t always do that”, and then we simply move onto the next thought, and it is forgotten....

It can happen for no apparent rhyme or reason; people using you, treating you like a dogsbody, walking all over you or not thinking about what you want or what’s best for you. The trouble is, the more it happens, the more you feel like you can’t change it; the more it happens the smaller you get. Here are some practical ways that you can stop being treated like a doormat, and start being treated with respect....

Caffeine is the world’s most used (and often abused) pharmacological drugs and while it does have some positive impact on focus, improving memory and detoxifying the liver, long-term exposure may be doing you more harm than good. It’s Not Just The Coffee This would be our main source of caffeine but with the explosion of energy drinks and general soda consumption, especially in diet form, we have exposed ourselves to too much of it and this is where problems arise....

Most importantly, dating is all about yourself. You have your quirks and flaws, just as much as others do. Therefore, dating is about finding a person who will accept you wholeheartedly, just as much you can accept his or her strangeness. Because it is virtually impossible to date a person whom you can’t feel yourself with. You cannot go out with a person who looks for something in you that you do not have....

Read Part One here (Part 1). To become an elite and powerful man, you must disregard trying to be in the top 1%. Instead, strive to join the 0.000001%. We have been taught that it is a sin to achieve wealth. When we think about a man with a large amount of money, we think he must surely be evil. We have been brainwashed to believe that the highest virtue is to live for other people and to give, to relieve other people’s suffering....

Luckily, there are a few universal indicators of a great app versus a glitchy mess. Quick: Your phone is dying, and you have about a minute to decide whether or not to download the app before you leave that Wi-Fi hotspot. A quick evaluation of any one of these factors can give you better insight into the true value of the app, but all of them together paint a clearer picture that ensures you’re getting your money’s worth....

The CT Business Travel infographic Once upon a time, people in a hall were asked, “Would you please give your honest opinion about solutions to the food shortage in the rest of the world?” An African replied, “What does ‘food’ mean?” An East European’s response to the question was, “What does ‘honest’ mean?” Meanwhile, a West European didn’t understand what “shortage” meant. Similarly, a Chinese was unable to fathom the meaning of “opinion”....

I like that you can edit the colors, the fonts, and everything about the look and feel, but that at the end of it all, you have this uber-simple interface. I changed the font, set the color to a more golden color, and then I was in good shape. It’s a great app and worth trying, especially if you toggle to full screen mode right away. Any Windows users know a similar free app?...
