Manoor IqbalPublished 6 months ago in LifehackThe Skill of Self-Confidence
In my previous life as a soccer coach, the journey to building a winning team wasn't solely paved with national championships and scholarships. Instead, it was about a crucial element that often goes unnoticed - self-confidence. Parents would approach me, eager for their sons or daughters to join our university's soccer team, seeking guidance on what it takes. In my role as a Socratic professor, I would respond with a simple question: "What unique qualities does your child possess?" The common replies were about great vision, incredible speed, or outstanding skills, like precision and power. However, I'd gently remind them that while these attributes were valuable, the foundation of a successful soccer player, or anyone, is self-confidence.
Daniel OgunPublished 6 months ago in LifehackThe Skill of Humor
Six years ago, I found myself in New York City, surrounded by friends, when a surprising notification popped up on my phone. It turned out to be a text message from my 78-year-old grandmother, someone I'd never expected to receive a text from. Her first text was endearing, reading, "Dear Andrew, trying out texting. Love, your grandma." It was as if she thought texting was just another form of letter writing. I responded by saying, "Hey grandma, it's a text. You don't have to include all that." Her next message read, "Dear Andrew, Okay. Love, your grandma." Her consistent sign-off as "Love, your grandma" made me chuckle. If it had been just "Love, grandma," I might have been puzzled, and if it included specific details, like, "Dear Andrew, have a good time in Texas. Love, grandma," I might have questioned who this grandma was.

SO, I DON’T NEED TO CHARGE IT? Kindle can’t do that! It all began in 1993, when I married my now husband. I use the word “now” because he is my second and will be my last. My first decided suddenly he wasn’t cut out to be a husband or father. Fifteen years later, I met RD, who at the time, was a widower with children close in age to my own. There were three boys and one girl, the oldest child (I consider all of them to be “ours”, not mine or his) at the time was twenty-six and the youngest was twenty. The immediate blend of families was a huge sigh of relief. RD and I wondered, when we decided to marry, how our children would welcome “step” parents and sibs. Everyone was overjoyed. Whew! What a relief. To say we were blessed is a very mild statement.

Each day, we interact with numerous strangers, from the grocery store clerk to a taxi driver or even a receptionist at a new workplace. These interactions create new links. Eventually, we construct a vast World Wide Web of conversations, just like the internet. Speaking of the World Wide Web, it's a term we've all heard before, right? That's it! A conversation is indeed a remarkable thing. A conversation is an adventure, offering fresh perspectives and opening doors.

History of the Halloween Pumpkin and Pumpkin Carving Ideas Origins of the Halloween Pumpkin Tradition The tradition of carving faces on vegetables as a way to ward off evil spirits has its roots in Ireland and Scotland. These Celtic regions have a long history of celebrating Samhain, a festival marking the end of the harvest season and the beginning of winter. People believed that on the night of Samhain, the boundary between the living and the dead blurred, allowing spirits to roam the Earth. To protect themselves, they carved scary faces into turnips and other vegetables, lit them with candles, and placed them outside their homes to ward off malevolent spirits.
