5 Things the Media Hasn't Told You About Life Lessons
You’re walking down a subway and see many different kinds of people—some holding their laptop bags to the chest and some listening to the songs zoning out. You try to figure out if any of them are successful in their lives, but you cannot.

Delegate and Conquer: 5 Leadership Mistakes
Mistake 1. No one but you can cope with the task. According to statistics, 7 out of 10 managers believe that only no one can cope with the task better than them. And if so, it is better to avoid dozens of rounds of approvals and edits and do everything yourself.

Do you find yourself nodding off at your desk? To overcome the midday slump, try these easy activities.
While the afternoon slump may be triggered by a lack of or poor quality sleep, it is a natural aspect of our sleep-wake cycle. It is also related to the level of cortisol in our body. This hormone, which helps us respond to stress and other stimuli, is normally greater in the morning and decreases during the day.

Is It Just Me Or Are Asians Bad With Compliments?
How does it feel when you get complimented? When someone tells me I'm doing a good job or that I look great, I get uncomfortable. My first instinct is to downplay, then deny and then think of a compliment about the other person, deflecting the attention off of me.

Alexander Proud thinks you should sack your life coach
I guess I should be used to the ubiquity of the ‘coach’ in modern life. At the outdoor gyms in parks around London you see perfectly normal looking men happily subjecting themselves to extreme verbal abuse like privates in Full Metal Jacket. This is the hunting ground of the personal trainer, all the Joe Wicks wannabes yelling instructions, interspersed with generic motivational phrases: “Faster, Harder, Stronger” alternating with: “Come on, man you can do it!” even when self-evidently they really can’t, but they’re paying for that yelling, so the coaches don’t hold back.

My 5 Mind Rules!
1. Do things for yourself before anyone else, be selfish! Why? Because at the end of the day you only have yourself, whether you can admit it or not people in this day are not how they used to be. You can not worry about others who simply do not worry about you, you should not stress out about others who do not worry about you, and lastly, do things for yourself! That car you wanted to buy, but didn't, go buy it! That outfit you wanted to wear but someone didn't like it, WEAR IT. Stop worrying about what others think. Self care and self love is the most important thing a woman can do for herself and her mental health which is what my next rule is about!

Writing Inspiration
I tend to try and inspire myself to write quite in small ways. Some days just suck. Writer's block can be difficult to overcome. I know most writers happen to struggle with it. Over the years, I have grown very fond of writing quotes. Words can hold so much power and I have always been obsessed with the way they flowed off my tongue. You can either gently caress someone or cut them like a knife. I like to tell myself that I own my story. I own every little thing that has happened to me. And I do not enjoy feeling the pressures of writer's block.
