What are the Characteristics of a Dreamer? Something that is very interesting is how many people will dream rather than do. We are all dreamers of sorts. It does not take much to have a dream, and everyone has them. But most just settle and don’t try to make that dream a reality. Life does not have to be something that we just let pass by, we can live to the fullest, with no regrets, here is a bit of insight in how. Take the Shot “You miss 100% of the shots you do not take.” This is something that is very true. When you are a dreamer, you always will find a new dream, or even a vision. The hard part is putting it into action. Anything that comes with pursuing something you want is 90% psychological. You have to know you want it, and how you want to get it before starting the journey. If your head is in the game, everything else will follow. Dreamers are Visionaries, We are great at starting things, generating ideas, questioning the system and inspiring oth...

I’ve been there, I feel like a lot of people have. The time in your life where you either watch an inspirational movie or see someone on Instagram with an amazing physique and think “I’m going to get on my gym grind and get shredded!”. So the next week you start up and begin to actually enjoy yourself with the health benefits that come along with exercise, but after that initial week or month is up, you quickly realize that it’s a very challenging and long commitment if you want to get results. This realization causes so many to become discouraged and slowly drift away from the gym, I went through this stage 3 times my first year of training before I fully engaged myself. It’s a vicious cycle that will keep you in it’s path unless you find these 3 key factors. 1. Why. Why do you want to go to the gym? Why do you want to start exercising? You need to ask yourself these questions and find the answers, this very well may be ...

Airports. Crowded tourist destinations. Rest stops. Crappy hotel food. Travel. There is a lot that can stop you from eating well while you vacation. Don’t let your travels turn into a diet disaster. Here are some tips to prevent your eating from going off track so that you can enjoy your vacation. Eat regular meals.  As difficult as it can be fitting your three meals a day (or more) into your schedule when you’re running through security to get to your gate or trying to see every tourist attraction before you leave, take a few minutes out of your super busy day and find some time to eat. Even if this means squeezing a sandwich into your bag into your bag, eating enough and at proper times during the day will help prevent you from getting “ hangry ” and in return, will help you to actually enjoy your travels. The same goes with water (don’t forget to hydrate!). Pack snacks.  If you don’t have enough time to sit down for an actual meal,...

Here are five simple ways to keep your marriage warm and alive. Daily doses of hugs and kisses Make it a habit of hugging or kissing your spouse early in the morning before leaving for work. This may look trivial but it will become a second nature once you do it every day. This act of love, albeit simple, is very powerful indeed. It helps to break down barriers easily should you faced with future conflicts. Offering compliments We often forget that before we are husband and wife, we are men and women. As time passed by, you forget how gorgeous she looks in that red dress or how good he smells in the aftershave. Put an effort to compliment each other even if it’s out of your way to do so. If you forget, just text him or her! Date nights After having kids, spending time together is proven to be so much harder. However, a loving relationship between husband and wife is the essence of a happy family. Invest in hiring a babysitter at least once or twice a week so that you could s...

To help curate your own future, start by asking yourself a series of questions: WHAT DO I WANT MY FUTURE TO LOOK LIKE? When you’re focused on the day-to-day, it can be challenging to make time to think about the long term. Yet it’s time well spent. Start with your ultimate career goal, then work your way backward. What does your goal look and feel like? What specific actions do you need to take to reach it? HOW DO I PURSUE MY ULTIMATE CAREER GOAL?  After you have a clear idea of what you want, it’s time to develop your task list for achieving it. In the time-management book Getting Things Done, David Allen articulates his system for prioritizing tasks. Create powerful to-do lists based on: 1. Your time. Identify those tasks that you can tackle between appointments—like scanning job listings or course catalogs—and those that require you to block out a few hours—like crafting a cover letter or updating your portfolio. Be ready to take advan...

1. SEE THE BEST IN YOUR PARTNER AND THE RELATIONSHIP Research on perception and attention shows that we see more of what we look for, so if you’re looking for signs of kindness, that’s more likely to stand out to you. How you think about and interpret your partner’s actions, intentions, and words also affects how you feel and understand a situation with them, which in turn affects how you behave toward them. Put it into practice: Spend a week looking for anything and everything your partner does “right.” You can even jot down anything you notice for each day if you choose. 2. HAVE FUN Couples who engage in exciting and enjoyable activities together have greater relationship satisfaction from before to after the shared activity. As several studies have shown, couples who play together stay together. Put it into practice: Choose an activity with your partner that you’ve never done together before that you would both find engaging and fun, such as t...

We all know that if we want to be physically fit, we have to train our physical muscles through cardiovascular exercise, strength training, stretching, and so on. We also know this takes great discipline. We can’t just work out sporadically and expect great results. While much societal emphasis is placed on the importance of having a strong, fit, healthy body, less attention is paid to developing healthy emotional muscles. Control over our feelings needs regular exercise to stay strong as well. Why does emotional fitness matter? Have you ever been having a perfectly fine (even wonderful!) day, only to receive an upsetting phone call or rude email that instantly "ruins" your day? I know I have. I recently received a phone call from my agent alerting me to the fact that a client was refusing to pay me for a job I had already performed, making all kinds of excuses and trying to justify withholding payment. I found myself getting irate—taking their unprofessionalism personal...

1. Do the things you did the first year you were dating. As the months and years roll on, we tend to slink into our proverbial sweatpants and get lazy in our relationship. We lose our patience, gentleness, thoughtfulness, understanding and the general effort we once made toward our mate. Think back to the first year of your relationship and write down all the things you used to do for your partner. Now start doing them again. 2. Ask for what you want. Over time, we assume that our partner knows us so well that we don’t need to ask for what we want. What happens when we make this assumption? Expectations are set and just as quickly, they get deflated. Those unmet expectations can leave us questioning the viability of our partnership and connection. Keep in mind that “asking for what you want” extends to everything from emotional to sexual wants. 3. Become an expert on your partner. Think about who your mate really is and what excites him or her (both physically and...

more on style & looks. On the UNDERCUTto be more specific, the one haircut and men-hairstyle that’s been going on for quite sometime, reminiscent of those 1940’s dapper looks. What is the UNDERCUT?  “I’d like to shave my head, but still have long hair please.”  No problem. Well, this is the undercut: shaved on the sides and long in the front hairstyle. Say what you will about it, truth is, it’s got so many options, from super edgy, to toned down, from extravagant to office appropriate, it’s so versatile and flattering on most face shapes – that it’s no wonder boys are getting it like crazy. Hell, women are chopping off their locks to get it, so there’s definitely something going on about this cut. Boys, if you have it, or you had it, kudos for you! but if not, what the hell are you waiting for? Or perhaps you feel it’s ubiquitous hence boring? No such thing. Trust us. The Undercut is the shit. This is how we wish all our boyfriends looked like...
