“You’re Not Too Busy, You’re Just a Little Rude”. That was the title of an article I recently read. It did not give anyone slack for using the "I'm too busy" excuse. The article went on to say that people equate being busy with success, and somehow idle time means you’re lazy. They ignore people and avoid commitments claiming to be too busy. I’m completely paraphrasing, but you get the idea. We do wear being busy as a badge of honor. Most of the time for me, it seems to be a convenient ...

My Why: How The Fear Of Missing Out Can Motivate You
Do you suffer from FOMO? FOMO means Fear Of Missing Out. While I like to believe that I am above such things, I do have an occasional “attack”.

How To Use Up Your Old Beauty Potions
Have you ever noticed that skincare products geared toward women come with a plethora of items? Smart companies market them, enumerating all the steps you need to complete your fountain of youth routine. These same companies that produce skincare products for men, however, have far fewer products for the “man lines”.

10 Fantastic Reasons To Stay At My House!
Stay with me, I'm organized! I grew up in a large family, and vacations were almost always taken by car. We’d load up and hit the road. We mostly went to places where we had relatives to visit, and often stayed at their homes. As a kid, my standards were quite low. A sleeping bag on the family room floor with a bunch of other kids stuffed in there was fine by me. As an adult, I still sometimes stay with family or friends when traveling. They are all kind enough to give me a room with a ... Read More about 10 Fantastic Reasons To Stay At My House!
