What You See Is Not Always What You Get

A few months ago, I started learning about diet and nutrition. My goal was to eat more healthy in order to increase my energy.

One trick I learned was to always read food labels.
They tell you the truth.

You see, food companies spend billions of dollars on marketing and packaging so you don't pay attention to what's really inside your food.

Breakfast cereals are the perfect example of this.
They are designed to appeal to children, while having text that is intended to reassure parents about the cereal's nutritional value.

But in reality, cereals are loaded with sugar, and poor in nutrients. It's only by reading the label that you realize it.

So, what does this all have to do with guys and women who are trusting God to find that special someone?

Well, when you meet a person for the first time, all you see is the well-designed packaging. Some women for example, it's the make-up, the hair, the sexy dress or the cleavage.
But what you see is not always what you get.

You have to read the "label", too. This is the person's character - how they behave and think.
People who skip reading the label end up with the wrong relationship partner, wasting time and being left miserable.

You can appreciate what you see, but you can't stop there. You have to look into his/her character to know who you're REALLY dealing with.

Have an amazing day!

Why Success Has Nothing To Do With Luck

What you believe has a tremendous impact on how well you can deal with the challenges of life. As a matter of fact, I believe that your belief system is the single most important factor in your success and happiness. In the course of my life, I held onto 4 beliefs that helped me through tough challenges. They helped me turn around my finances, faith, career, and interpersonal relationships. Here they are: 1. EVERYTHING HAPPENS FOR A REASON AND A PURPOSE TO SERVE ME This is the belief that helped me find the opportunities and the gift even in the face of adversity. 2. WHAT DOESN'T KILL ME MAKES ME STRONGER This is the belief that gets me going when I'm sad or hurt. I've scaled through moments of depression with the help of this belief. 3. I HAVE NOTHING TO FEAR, BUT FEAR ITSELF This is the belief that I repeat to myself every time I want to do something that scares me. This one is extremely liberating once you internalize it. What would you do wit...

Ignite Your Creativity

Your life is like an ongoing work of art. The canvas of your life begins with your family; and your experiences, setbacks, and triumphs play a part in forming who you become. And as long as you live, your life will continue to be a form of artistic creation. Creativity is often narrowly defined by creative works, such as books, paintings, and music. But creativity encompasses so much more than the works we create. Living a creative life also involves the thought, energy, and time we devote to problem-solving and creating the life we’ve been given to live. So stop delineating creativity only along aesthetic lines. Get out of your comfort zone and find solution to problems. Reflect on ways of adding value to human existence. Stop complaining about issues and start innovating. Develop new ideas. Implement new processes. Devise new methods of doing things or making things work. When you get stuck, get out of your work space and go for a walk. Leverage synergy where practicable. Your crea...
