  • Labels Kill (or The Bizarre Behaviour Of Normal People)
    By: Willie Horton | - I have long been of the view that "normal" behaviour is bizarre. After all, the Universities of Chicago and Milan calculate that so-called "normal" people use just 1% of their mental capacity to do what they're doing in the here and now. The rest of their mental energy is wasted on looking forward, worrying but, most destructively of all, looking backwards - because that is where the subconscious mind lives. And this subconscious, focused in our formative years, automatically creates our d ...

  • Top 7 Tips To Take Initial Steps Towards Healthy Habits

  • A Practical Approach To Healthy Eating
    By: Nehemiah Maxwell | - You will never be healthy, eating healthy foods occasionally. You have to make healthy eating a habit if you want to obtain nutritional health.

    I have been doing push-ups five days a week for over 25 years. My arms are pretty strong but it did not happen overnight. I did not do push-ups for a couple weeks or months and then stopped. I had to make push-ups a habit if I wanted to continuously get the results I have. Exactly the same holds true with having a healthy diet.
