"Make the most of what you got!"

I'm on a quest for the best patterns and practices for mind, body, emotions, career, financial, relationships, and fun. I'm a fan of excellence and continuous improvement. I help underdogs make the most of life.

Here's some of the rules I live by:
  • Life's not a spectator's sport.
  • Absorb what's useful; reject the rest.
  • It's not what's on your plate, it's how you eat it.
  • Don't take life too seriously, or you'll never get out alive.
  • Success is a journey, not a destination.
  • Live more, laugh more, learn more, love more.
  • Roll with the punches.
  • Whatever doesn't kill you, makes you stronger.
  • Don't seek to be better than others; seek to be better than yourself.

Anxiety Culture: How to Stop Worrying

lounging in a hammock by Gaetan Lee
Once acquired, the habit of worrying seems hard to stop. We're raised to worry and aren't considered "grown up" until we perfect the art. Teenagers are told: "you'd better start worrying about your future". If your worries aren't at least as frequent as your bowel movements, you're seen as irresponsible, childish, aimless. That's a "responsible adult" game rule.To the extent that worrying is learned/conditioned behaviour, it can be undone. There are psychological gimmicks for undoing the worry habit. There are also obstacles.

Happy Valentine's Day and all my love to my dear Flickr friends! (Over 5000 Views in February) by faith goble
The phrase "I Love You" is one of the most popular three word phrases in the English language. Whether it's the first time or the thousandth time, saying I love you is a very special and meaningful thing. There may be times, however, when you want to do something extra special for your significant other, whether it is your anniversary, a birthday, or Valentine's Day. Why not try saying or writing I love you in a different language.
Jealousy: The Cunning Game of Comparison | Spiritual Pub

Happy Valentine's Day by C.P.StormOn the other hand, the kid who secured first position in the class returns home like an emperor. His parents can't stop showering praise on him. They keep on telling him, "See, you are the best. Nobody can beat you. You did an awesome job. There is nobody better than you. You are the superior of all." The kid who came in second was obviously jealous of the kid who came in first. But -- why? Despite having done so well in the class, why is he jealous? What are the reasons behind his jealousy? 

This has made me tap into some other significant questions such as:

  • Why do we get jealous in the first place?

  • What is jealousy?

  • What are its roots and origin?

  • Who feeds us the idea of jealousy? Is it our natural, innate behavior to be jealous?
