I remember reading the adage, “Just because you think you’re hungry doesn’t mean you really areâ€. So how did I reduced my hunger pangs? I have replaced the food that we buy at home with more low fat milk (I love Farmhouse!), nuts like Almond or Brazillian, lots of fruits (bananas, mangoes, rambutans are my [...]
I have to admit, I have done that a lot in the past, not so much these days. I always wondered how some of my friends hit the jackpot while I’m still trudging away making ends meet. While I am aware that it’s unhealthy, I used it to energize my motivation to improve myself. Yes, so [...]
Clueless about exercising or you think you know enough? The toughest part is to get started and then to stay committed to the cause. It’s a mental block that all fitness centers are fully aware of and go all out to get you excited and sign you up for a year’s membership, knowing that there’s [...]
If you answered boredom, then you share my thoughts. What keeps us going? Day in and day out? We all need a purpose to live, and with boredom, it kills the purpose. Let’s face it, we all need challenge in life to keep our hearts beating, mind thinking and body working. Stress to be is [...]

[ad] Do you have enough savings, that if you lose your job, you can survive for at least 2 months? Do not assume that your job is secure, and that you’re immune to the current economy downturn. Always be prepared for the worst, and by that, I don’t mean to go all gaga and start [...]
[ad] The staple motivation of a man from a relationship is appreciation. All men want to be looked up to, particularly by their partner. They require your blessing to feel comfy in the relationship. You may find yourself in a position where you don’t know what to do. That’s perfectly just because men are looking [...]
Persistence. The only way to succeed in life. Some of us throw in the towel early because we have the wrong expectation – we thought it would be easy peasy and then reality hits us in the bum bum.
