A shock is sometimes good for us?

You betcha…and the only reason it is a shock, is because we weren’t ready for it. When we are shocked by a situation, event or even a cold shower, it’s just because we are taken by surprise and have a hard time getting our heads, or our body around what just happened.

You can never do something nice…

…and not have affect you, positively. So if you want to feel a little better, just change doing something nice for “yourself “into doing something nice for “someone else”. You’ll feel better and so will the “someone else”…you get a 2-fer…Sweet. – Dr. Vik, The Culture King

Free really does Cost…

I read a story…

My Metabolism has Gone Down…

Is that your excuse?? I hear it everyday…, “My metabolism has gone down, I can’t eat like I used to, I don’t have time to exercise like I used to….” Great excuses, and that’s what they are. Yes, your metabolism does go down with age but not as much as you would like to think. … Read more »
