  • How To Distinguish Between Pleasure And Happiness
    By: Roseanna Leaton | - Many people think that they will find happiness when in fact they reach out in search of pleasure. They think that in finding pleasure they will also find happiness.

  • How To Make The Most Of Your Goal Process

Each opinion received noisy agreement, and even a mild facetious aside was greeted with loud laughter and applause. When I came to the climax of the speech they were practically rolling on the floor and the c ...

  • Personal Development And The True Power Of Now
    By: Willie Horton | - If you've read pretty much anything at all on the subject of personal development or self improvement then you will have some appreciation of the importance placed by many experts on the important of being focused in the present moment.

They certainly got over it before they played their next shot and just went back to their regular routine.

Playing in the now means that you're protected from any poor, indifferent shots and ill-judged shots that went before. It also means that you're protected from future uncertainties and expe ...

  • Escape From Fears And Yearnings By Living In The Now
    By: Dr. Robert Puff | - Many people struggle with two main things in life: Fear and Yearning. Fear can come from bad experiences in the past that we fear will repeat. Fear can also arise from considering the potential loss of the things we value or cherish. This could be a job, a house, a reputation, or a loved one. Yearning, on the other hand, may stem from pleasurable experiences in the past that ignite our desire for more, or from goals as yet unobtained, that we believe will bring us pleasure.

  • Learning Not To Take Life Too Seriously Can Help People Live In The Moment
    By: Ethan Alexander | - Recently, a mother who was concerned that her teenage daughter didn't take life seriously enough asked me for advice. Specifically, she worried that her daughter was being too passive when it came to not making perfect As in school. This mother was concerned that this attitude could be indicative of some sort of problem; however, I feel that she is not examining the situation closely enough. Perhaps this perceived "problem" is actually a blessing in disguise for her teenage daughter!
