Imagine if you had the extraordinary power to make everyone happy with a particular song that you love to sing. 

Would you sing all day long? 

Or would you only sing the song when the majority of those who are listening to you are sad? If you choose to only sing at times when you feel like the world needs it, not only are you robbing the world of the comfort of hearing you sing, you are narrowing the range of people that you can help because you are not willing to share the gift given to you. 

How much of your life do you live for others? Have you ever wondered how to expand yourself in order to help others? 

In the past, you were too worried about how you could achieve your dreams. You wondered how else you could improve your personal life so that you could live comfortably. What you could do for others always took a back seat. 

But now you’re thinking, how do you turn those special gifts of yours into gifts for others?

If you want to improve your productivity, do you know that it’s vital to get good sleep every night? Sleep has a significant effect on our overall health as well as on our ability to focus and do our tasks well during the day. We get to absorb new information effectively, concentrate on challenging tasks, and become mentally and emotionally stable. 

Why Is Sleep Important For The Brain?

With all the great benefits of good sleep, you would think that most people would make an effort to get eight hours of shut-eye each night. However, a third of the population is not getting enough sleep, and because of this, their ability to perform their jobs well is compromised. According to experts, this effect on productivity in the United States alone means a loss of over $680 billion a year.

A healthy sleep pattern is essential if you want to make sure that you’re getting the most of your days. You’ll be able to do better with your work or...

Do you often feel that your life isn’t the one that you dreamed of? Maybe you think that a lot is lacking in your life. You don’t own your dream house, you’re not driving a fancier car, your paycheck isn’t that big, and you’re stuck in a job that leaves you exhausted every single day. If this is how you view your life, it’s not surprising that you’re unsatisfied and disappointed. But there’s a way to turn things around and make things better, and that is by changing your attitude. 

How Gratitude Changes Everything

If you can be a bit more grateful for what you have instead of whining about what you don’t, you’ll find that you actually have everything that you need. You see, gratitude changes everything. Look around your home and try to number your reasons to be grateful. You have a roof above your head, your fridge is probably full, or at least there’s food in there, you have electricity and...

What does it mean to have a flexible mind? When you often find yourself frustrated or disappointed because things are not going your way, then you may need to learn about developing flexibility. The flexibility that we're talking about is the ability to shift from one task to accommodate another. It is also about your ability to handle a number of thought processes at a particular time. Do you have difficulties practicing flexible thinking? If you do, then read along so you'll learn about how to develop a flexible mind. 

What Is A Flexible Mind?

Imagine your brain as a kind of muscle. When you use it more and challenge it, our minds become more flexible and can easily adjust to changes or new situations. We can be more flexible to change if we're more willing to get out of our comfort zones and expose ourselves to challenges. The more we practice and expose ourselves to new things, then we can become even more creative and resilient, which, in turn,...

Do you ever notice the many areas of your life that you try to control? Starting from what time you wake up, how many calories you consume, how much you should spend in a month, and other plans, you try so hard to control your life. However, deep inside, we know that we can only do so much to control what’s happening. Maybe that’s why we try so hard, but something always frustrates us. Don’t you think it’s time to accept that life is uncontrollable?

The Truth About Control

No matter how neatly we try to organize and schedule our days, there’s always something that will pop up that’s not on our list. You may not have planned on buying a new smartphone yet, but your child threw yours in the bathtub. What are you supposed to do, right? That’s going to take some adjustment on your finances because our phones are among the vital tools we use every day, and you need a replacement soon. It’s crucial to have that space in your life where you...

Does it feel like someone's always following you around and checking out what you are doing? Does it feel like you're criticized all the time and that this person points out your mistakes? Unless you're actually being stalked, more than likely, this person is you.

Self-hate can make you feel awful. You might not be fully aware of it, but several of your thoughts are actually signs of low self-esteem.

"I knew I would fail."

If you have this strange feeling about failing even before you've even begun, then that's a sign that you need to believe in yourself more. 

"Why should I even try?"

If you ask yourself this just so you can talk yourself out of trying something new, you need a confidence boost. Get out of your comfort zone and try. 

"I'm a loser."

Remember that you only become a loser when you quit even before trying. 

"No one wants to be around me."

Thinking that your life is dependent on other people who like you will not do you any good....

All couples want their marriage to be a happy one. But what’s the secret to a long-lasting relationship? For every couple, there’s a honeymoon phase where they’re both so in love with each other. Their passion for their relationship seems to be limitless. However, there will come a time when the honeymoon phase ends, and the two individuals need to face the reality of being married. 

Marriage is complicated, but that doesn’t mean that it’s impossible to be happily married. If you want to give your relationship the best chances to be successful, it’s essential to understand the principles of marriage and how to work around the realities of being a husband or a wife. Let’s take a look at three keys to a successful marriage. Hopefully, these will be able to help you strengthen your relationship more. 

Understand That Marriage Isn’t Perfect

One of the rules for a happy marriage is to be realistic about your...

Everyone has something that bothers them. It's like we all have a reason to worry or feel like we have lost control. In some situations, you end up overreacting. You express how you feel, even if it is unrelated to the current situation. 

You begin to be filled with worry and dread. Ultimately, it has affected your life in more ways than you ever imagined. Stress and mental health are a terrible combination. 

Sadly, all the stress that you are feeling at the moment is brought about by emotions and reasons that you don't know how to handle. This is why you must understand what is bothering you. That's the first step to ultimately finding stress healing. Unless you know what is upsetting you and what is causing all the pent up emotions, you won't be able to relieve yourself of it. 

Usually, when you get down to the root cause of your stress, it becomes fairly easy to find a solution. When you find out that your fears are ungrounded, it is easy to...

What is wrong about being different? It is perhaps one of the questions that cross your mind whenever everyone else is headed in the same direction, and you are on your way to the other side. 

Most of the time, people worry whenever they are labeled differently by those around them. While this may be based on something physical in the beginning, it could also be something more as the relationship becomes deeper. 

It's not easy to be different. It can be quite impossible to see how being different is good when you are the odd one out. Being different means that you don't blend in. It means that you do not fit in the jigsaw puzzle, just like everyone else.

But is it possible to be different and still feel good about it? Will you ever come to a point where you can tell yourself, "I feel different that's okay"? 

Why Is It Hard To Be Different?

While people can tell you that being different is beautiful, it can be quite impossible to believe that. In...

The current New Moon that's coming through on July 20th, 2020 is in the zodiac sign of Cancer. 

In this article, I'm going to be offering three different ways to understand the energy at this time and ways that you can tap in and utilize this energy. 

Let's dive right into the goodies that this watery sign has to give! 

Energy Aspect #1: Cancer Is The Sign Of The Great Mother

When she's in her highest expression, she expresses herself in the world through the divine feminine energy. We are talking about the power that nourishes all of life!

But when the Cancerian sign is in her shadow, she embodies all of the shadow feminines. Meaning she is there to siphon from life! 

Either of these expressions can come through you at this time, so it will be important to take care that your negative emotions do not entirely take the wheel! I will go into more detail about this when we reach the second energy aspect.

During this time, many of us will be exploring our collective...
