Employ the power of positive quitting. Most of us view quitting as something negative, but it’s not. ‘Winners never quit,’ we’re told, when, in reality, winners quit all the time: choosing to stop doing things that aren’t creating the results they desire. When you quit all the things that aren’t working for you, when you quit tolerating all the negative things that hold you back, you’ll create a positive ‘charge’ in your life as well as create the space in your life for more positive experiences.

People think focus means saying yes to the thing you’ve got to focus on. But that’s not what it means at all. It means saying no to the hundred other good ideas that there are. You have to pick carefully.

Reheat Pizza

Heat up leftover pizza in a nonstick skillet on top of the stove, set heat to med-low and heat till warm. This keeps the crust crispy… No soggy micro pizza. I saw this on the cooking channel and it really works.

In seeking wisdom the first step is silence, the second: listening, the third: remembering, the fourth: practicing, the fifth: teaching others.

‘Beauty’ Sleep

Mands — Tue, 01 Dec 2009 14:01:14 +0000

Despite us all knowing that getting a good night’s sleep… every night… is essential to our looks and wellbeing, some of us still ‘burn the candle at both ends’ …so to speak. However, we can ensure that the sleep we do enjoy is the very best we can get!

Remember…

No caffeinated, or fizzy drinks after 1:00pm (that means no coffee, tea and especially cola drinks).
Have a 20 to 30 minute (minimum) soak in a Sea Salt or Epsom Salt bath, before going to bed.
Ensure that your bedroom is a sanctuary with restful calming colours… and avoid having anything that can stimulate or disturb your sleep… TV or Computer, including having the Notebook computer next to the bed!
Make sure your room has ambient light with a reading lamp next to the bed so that you can read.
Avoid eating or taking medication just before going to bed. Rather eat earlier …at least an hour before bed time.

Do you have a ‘beauty sleep’ tip?
