When you start to think about improving your credit score, you have to answer three important questions first: What Are Your Credit Goals? Having a high credit score is great, but ultimately, your credit score is a tool in your personal finance arsenal that you can use to open doors. The first question you should ask yourself is “what will a higher credit score do for me?” I work with many clients directly at Freedom Travel Systems to help them fully leverage the power of their credit so they can enjoy free luxury travel and start or grow their business....

Even before COVID-19, balancing work, family, and social life made concentrating a challenge for many. These days, it can seem downright impossible. From distractions at work to information overload on social media, technology has made concentration even more challenging to achieve. Think back to a time when your mind was truly at peace. Perhaps it was while on a long walk in the woods, or maybe it was relaxing on the beach....
Oh, for years I denied it. After all, I have good social skills. I am not morose or misanthropic. Usually. I am far from shy. I love long conversations that explore intimate thoughts or passionate interests. But at last I have self-identified and come out to my friends and colleagues. Here Jonathan discusses how introverts are different, why they may act certain ways and how to accommodate them. It’s a fun read for both opposites....
Check your autopayments No, not the payments you make on your car (though you SHOULD be checking those, and re-evaluating your need for a new car, but that’s a whole other post!). Check your bank account for recurring withdrawals that you may have forgotten about. Maybe you signed up for a magazine that you don’t read, or maybe you have a computer backup system you’re paying for when you could be utilizing a free version....
1. Salmon Essential fatty acids, such as omega-3, help promote healthy and shiny hair. Omega-3 fatty acids keep the scalp hydrated and healthy and thus allow for the growth and shine of hair. Fatty fish like salmon and tuna are good sources of fatty acids. Have some of them every day for healthier, shinier hair. Besides omega-3, salmon also contains protein and vitamin D, both of which are essential for growing healthy hair....
Before you begin a running program, you need to know if your body is ready for this high-impact exercise. Running isn’t just about endurance; you need strength to run. Performing the strength test below is a great way to determine if you’re strong enough to starting running. Here’s what you’ll need: An exercise mat A timer A step (a step stool will do just fine) Start by going for a 10-minute walk to warm up....
And why is that so? I have asked this question to many people, and the majority of them answer that they are not happy because they want to lose some weight. They know that weight loss is awesome, there are so many benefits of losing weight: increased confidence, reduced risks of heart attack (and other diseases), increase of life span, and many more. But why is it so hard for them to lose weight?...

Adaptability is a reflection of your confidence, presence, and willingness to grow and endure. As Natalie Fratto, a venture capitalist, presented in her TED Talk, “I look for signs of one specific trait. Not IQ. Not EQ. It’s adaptability.” You can check out her full TED talk in the video below. Depending on who you ask, adaptability has a variety of meanings. Google defines it as “the quality of being able to adjust to new conditions....
Upon editorial board approval of my book, my editor sent my work to reviewers in my field, then a developmental editor, then a designer and layout team and, finally, another copy editor. There were a host of personalities with whom I needed to interact along the way. It turns out that getting a publishing contract was just the beginning – a lot happens between developing a concept, writing the book, finding an agent and publisher, and getting the book on bookshelves or on Audible or Kindle....
1. Work that matters. Working in a corporate office, especially in the beginning stages of your career, means you’ll probably be stuck doing some type of job that doesn’t really make an impact on the company’s mission or bottom line. Not with a startup. Each startup employee is crucial to the success of the company, so the work you do will matter. In corporate offices, sometimes your work can go unnoticed because you’re just one worker in a sea of others, but not at a startup, which can be both a positive and negative aspect of startup life....
They say the best way to avoid disappointment is to not expect anything from anyone. After all, you’ve come a long way now giving yourself a pat on the shoulder about how you made it through life’s hard lessons so you have no reasons to be fooled again. You don’t want to repeat the mistakes from the past because you finally understood that not everyone should be trusted with your emotions....
Chances are, when you think about success, you have a few of the classic markers of success floating around your brain. Insert stock photo image of the boss working late into the night, or an image of an ecstatic but very relaxed luxury vacationer. You probably have some other more personal and perhaps more modern views of what success looks like kicking around in your head as well. As work culture has rapidly evolved and the face of the typical entrepreneur or leader has broadened to include a greater number of individuals seeking freedom and control over their lives and livelihoods, many are left wondering, how do they do it?...
That being said, it’s quite important for you to realize what separates these two professions, so to speak, because there’s a very thick crowbar of separation here. If you do want to be a leader who people around you will want to follow, you need to work on yourself. Know the Difference A person you’d use the word boss for is that intimidating someone you only know exists because you see them walking down the office every now and then when they head towards their huge office designed by an overpriced brand....
The last thing that you want to do at an interview or at a social event is lull your audience to sleep. Regardless of context, when I’m getting to know someone, I want to hear stories about different aspects of the person’s life. I want to know what is happening with them so that I can understand how they face adversity and measure their own success. Sometimes I walk away from a conversation feeling completely bowled over by a person’s personality and accomplishments....
Bruce DeBoer at Synthesis has written a fantastic article on creativity. It surely answered many questions on what makes one creative, and it also answered my question – am I borned with creativity or developed by education and environment – I used to think it’s former but it is definitely the latter which has more weights than former: Usually I won’t quote two sections but here is what I like (as a geek): When do we begin to fear our own creativity?...
Although I disagree with the author and believe that the desire to be respected by your spouse is universal and transcends gender, there is something to say about how respect affects men specifically. When it occurs, men are left wondering what to do when they feel that their wife does not respect them and struggle with this on their own. Feeling Disrespected in Marriage Affects Men Differently For the sake of this article, we will be exploring how respect—or rather, disrespect—affects men in relationships....
So, what are the differences between people who run a business and true entrepreneurs? Here are some qualities that definitely make the difference. 1. Growth mindset People who run a business have a mindset of just meeting their minimum expectations. They hope to make their payroll that month, that quarter, or that year, and they hope to reach a certain number. Because of this mindset they do exactly that – they meet their minimum goals....
