5 Things That Give You Better Focus in Your Life

“Come to the movies with us”, came the beckoning voice of friends. “Can you join a subcommittee to improve an event we’re hosting”, a text from work asked. What do these requests have in common?

What Makes a Good Life and Happy People?

About three hundred years ago, King Frederick II of Germany wanted to know what language a baby would grow up to speak, if they were left to develop on their own and not taught a language.

He assigned 50 babies foster mothers, who were tasked to care for but not hold, touch, or talk to the babies. The experiment failed because all 50 babies died. You can see that another person’s TOUCH is an absolute necessity for a child to LIVE and develop healthily, but we really do need each other a lot more than that, if we are to have a good, happy life.

How to Dominate Your Emotions and Choose the Life You Want

How would you feel getting being paged over the loudspeakers in a public area, such as a mall or airport, to come to the information desk? Many people say their first reaction is that something bad must have happened.

Emotions have important roles, such as warning us of danger but it’s dangerous to simply react. See what you can do about this.
