Travel for me

When you receive a gift or a favor from someone, you're probably going to say thank you. Some people say "thank you" very awkwardly, while others say it in a way that makes the giver think they did a good job. Do you know what the difference is? You might think of ways to show your appreciation by saying "thank you" and sending a little gift icon, but personally, the best feeling I've ever had when helping someone is when they add a word to their "thank you." That one word is a short appreciation for a gift that is, in some ways, not much. What's behind the word "thank you" is reciprocation. If you've ever given a gift to someone, you remember wanting to hear how they liked it. The same goes for the other person. They want to hear what you've been thinking about it since you received it. It doesn't have to be anything fancy. For example, if you're on a trip and a friend brings you a snack, you could tell them what you

There are times in life when you're betrayed. I've been in relationships where I thought I trusted the other person and had a really good relationship with them, but even in those relationships, I've been betrayed. The feelings of betrayal are naturally complex and nuanced. But this flow of emotions, starting with what I did wrong and ending with the other person's anger, is kind of eating away at me. It's natural to feel sad and angry because you've been hurt, and it's natural to feel resentful and hateful toward the person who betrayed you. But not everyone feels the same way, so it's only natural to feel betrayed. No matter how much you think about it, it's already happened, and it's too far gone to turn back. It's not something you can fix, so it's best to stop looking for it. So what should you do when you've been betrayed? Ironically, the best thing to do when you've been betrayed is to play it cool and let the person off th

There are times when you find yourself in a life sage time. You feel like no matter what you do, things start to go wrong, and everyone around you seems to be doing well, but you're stuck in a maze. What do you do when life doesn't seem to have an answer? What do you do when you feel like your luck is worse than it used to be? If you're in a sage time of your life, the first thing you should do is move. You need to go places you wouldn't normally go and do things you wouldn't normally do to get out of the maze. It could be visiting a luxury store for the first time, playing a game at a PC shop you've never been to before, or buying something you thought you'd never buy. Doing something that makes you feel good will recharge your batteries and stimulate your mind with new things. Even if the problem you're facing hasn't gone away, you might be able to untangle the threads in your brain and find a new way to approach it. Trying new things is the first

There's a phrase that many people say. "If only I had more time, I could have done a better job, or I would have tried just a little harder." Are you guilty of saying this too? We often think that we didn't accomplish what we wanted to because we didn't have enough time, or because our circumstances weren't favorable. If only all the circumstances were better, we'd have better results and better outcomes. Then I want to ask you again, if that's the case, why don't you spend enough time doing what you need to do to be more successful? Why haven't you done it? You can make excuses for this too, but they're really just that, excuses. The answer is because you didn't want it bad enough. You have to let go of wishful thinking. The same mentality of "if only I had more time, I could work out" is wishful thinking. There is never time to spare, and that time is just another way of saying you don't want to do it. And the things tha

When you work at a company, you meet a lot of different people. But there's one person in particular that everyone seems to dislike: someone who speaks aggressively or negatively about your opinions. Their personality is so aggressive that you can't help but wonder if they actually think you're the enemy. Naturally, you don't want to talk to this type of person and try to avoid them as much as possible. However, these people are often better for your career than having yes men around. If you think about it, they're a good stimulus, just like the concept of red team blue team in management theory. Enemies can be stimulating and teachable, but they can also be truthful with their own solid logic, or they can try to take away what you've accomplished. If you use them to your advantage, you can really grow faster than anyone else. Think back to high school and how you used to try harder because you thought you were a rival. If you only keep good people around you, y

What makes a weekend well spent? For many of us, it's a time to catch up with friends, read a good book, or binge-watch our favorite shows. Sometimes, unproductive rest can have a detrimental effect on us.   The harmful effects of unproductive rest on the body   It's important for us to recognize that not all forms of rest are the same. Staying in bed in your pajamas all day is not true rest - it's more like waking up after noon, eating a meal, and then sleeping in bed without moving. Our holidays When we wake up to start the day on a holiday, it's already late afternoon or early evening. This habit breaks our daily rhythm and can even be harmful to our bodies. If you're an office worker, it can be embarrassing to wake up on Monday feeling groggy and out of sorts after a weekend of late nights. If you've ever felt generally depressed on a Monday, it's likely because you had a less-than-ideal weekend. 1. Avoid an irregular routine. Even if you have a day off,
