From the positivityblog:
1. Change yourself.
“You must be the change you want to see in the world.”
“As human beings, our greatness lies not so much in being able to remake the world - that is the myth of the atomic age - as in being able to remake ourselves.”

You heard me. Of course some of you might vehemently disagree with me that “mindfulness” can occur in business - it’s just that… that isn’t happening where you work. If that’s the case, I’m very sorry to hear that, but have hope. Mindfulness in Business is very possible and in fact, can make that business [...]

If you simply take time to be aware of breathing in and breathing out, a wonderful thing happens: You stop thinking, particularly about all the chaos that is swimming around in your head. Whether you’re thinking about what you [...]

It’s a known fact that the power of positivity has had amazing beneficial effects on people. Studies have shown that positive people tended to be in better health throughout their lives, and well, face it, more likable. I mean, who likes a grump?? Not me. There’s nothing worse than a sourpuss with an attitude problem [...]

The inimitable and wonderful Joseph Campbell once said that personal transformation only comes as a result of suffering or revelation. If we are lucky, we get that “ah ha!” moment by revelation. Unfortunately, for most humans, we are transformed by a serious illness, the death of a loved one or a divorce, among other traumatic [...]

“Masturbation is the primary sexual activity of mankind. In the nineteenth century it was a disease; in the twentieth [and twenty-first] , it’s a cure.” ~Thomas Szasz, psychiatry professor at the State University of New York Health Science Center

The holidays are here, ready or not. For some, it’s a festive, merry time of year and all is neato and chill, in an endless happiness. For others, unfortunately, it’s the dreaded time of the year filled with sugar plum psycho madness with a ginormous slice of hell and anguish and a side of stress [...]

People who can’t let go of grudges and who stay bitter FOREVER, really make me sad. My sister is one of them (luckily she doesn’t know about my blog otherwise she’d hate me. FOREVER.) Anyway. If people could simply forgive and let go of their negative feelings, there’d be so much LESS health problems, grumpiness, [...]

From Ririan Project:
What do Leonardo da Vinci, Albert Einstein and Thomas Edison all have in common? They’ve all made considerable contributions to the advancement of mankind, they’re all distinguished in their respective fields, and they were all avid power nappers.

I happen to be lucky enough to live in the countryside, it is absolutely amazing to simply sit on the deck (when it’s not butt cold outside) and just watch the wonderful nature surrounding me. I absolutely feel incredible just doing that simple thing. The other things I like doing, that are more on [...]

From Why Travel to France:

“It’s a long way from the instant smiles posing next to the Eiffel Tower, and it’s miles away from the diesel fog fumes that guarantee an all-day pounding headache. You won’t find it anywhere near bursting stores with people packed against each other in human sardine fashion to find the best [...]
