Creating Silence from Chaos
by Leo
27 Jan 2012 at 3:20pm
Post written by Leo Babauta. We are often afraid of silence, because its emptiness feels idle, boring, unproductive, and scary. And so we fill our lives with chaos, noise, clutter. But silence can be lovely, and therapeutic, and powerful. It can be the remedy for our stress and the habits that crush us. If we [...]

‘Don’t panic.’ ~Douglas Adams Post written by Leo Babauta. Why is it that we cannot break the bad habits that stand in our way, crushing our desires to live a healthy life, be fit, simplify, be happier? How is it that our best intentions are nearly always beaten? We want to be focused and productive, [...]

‘Everything is practice.’ ~Pele Post written by Leo Babauta. When we learn a martial art, or ballet, or gymnastics, or soccer ? we consciously practice movements in a deliberate way, repeatedly. By conscious, repeated practice, we become good at those movements. Our entire lives are like this, but we’re often less conscious of the practice. [...]

by Leo
9 Jan 2012 at 12:55pm
Post written by Leo Babauta. Every January, people rush out and get a gym membership, set a list of goals or resolutions, and get ready to take on a new year of frenetic activity. Unfortunately, we don’t often clear space to make room for all this new stuff. The beginning of the year is a [...]

by Leo
6 Jan 2012 at 12:19pm
Post written by Leo Babauta. So you’ve been putting off tackling your clutter for months, maybe even years. Papers pile up on a counter, shelves are crammed full of books and magazines and other things, closets are stuffed to the point of spillage, clothes pile up on the floor or furniture, boxes and furniture and [...]
How to Have the Best Year of Your Life (without Setting a Single Goal)
by guest
5 Jan 2012 at 9:15am
Editor’s note: This is a guest post from Jeff Goins of Goins, Writer. This new year, do something different: stop setting goals. If the definition of insanity is doing the same thing over and over again expecting different results, then making resolutions for another year is a sure-fire way to drive yourself crazy. I did [...]

Here is your Tuesday STORY on: SELF DEVELOPMENT: Sometimes... risks can be taken inch by inch. There are too many sayings that encourage us to take risks and establish that without taking risks we never improve. Of course whilst this philosophy is true, it can be easily misinterpreted! Proof of this will be surely within your own life. These risks can be categorised as thus: An irresponsible risk A Calculated risk We would assume that an irresponsible risk would fail and a calculated risk would be successful. If this was true, which type of risk are you going to use next time? A calculated risk is a plan split into several or even hundreds of movements. Then should failure loom after ten movements the plan can be shelved. However it seems that a greater chance of success will come from meticulous planning. In fact as the start of today's daily wisdom said, 'Inch by inch!' Today's story illustrates that in taking a calculated risk a weakness can become a strength. WEAKNESS OR STRENGTH? A happy 10-year-old boy was involved in an accident, sadly his arm was severely damaged and sadly had to be amputated. That is where the bad news finishes. This young boy still was the same young boy, but he had lost his left arm. His happy disposition was that he still wanted to be involved with everything. So after his request, his parents enrolled him into a 'judo' class. What an enormous task confronted him, with only one arm he was attempting to compete amongst his friends at the same level. The young boy approached the teacher and said he wanted to learn as much as possible about this sport. The judo teacher was apprehensive, but studied carefully the disability and came up with a solution. The judo teacher instructed the young boy to learn one important move. After a few weeks the boy was confused, he asked, 'Why do I only learn one move?' the judo teacher said, 'This is the only move you need to know!' (Inch by inch the boy would practice this move, until his skill was masterful). A few months later the judo school entered the annual national competition. To everyone's surprise the young boy with only one arm progressed through all the stages to the final. His opponent was a boy both larger and physically stronger. The odds were against the young boy with one arm. He tussled bravely and the audience were in fear for the young boy's safety. As the final progressed, it was clear that the young boy was trying to make the same move to win the tournament. But he fought bravely and frustrated the opponent. Suddenly his larger opponent became so disorientated he lost concentration. The young boy tried his move once more and successfully won the tournament for his judo school. The young boy amongst many others was confused but delighted about his win. He approached his judo teacher after the win and asked why he had been so successful. His teacher replied, 'There is only one defence to the move I taught you, if and when you secure the correct grip in your attack, the only defence is to grasp your left arm...' (Unknown Author). QUOTE: "When you take risks there is a possibility of failing, and yet by taking no risks, failure is certain.' (Eva, Author and Philosopher). 'And the trouble is, if you don't risk anything, you risk even more.' (Erica Jong).


How do I know when it's time to lose... the V-CARD?!?
So I've been going out with this guy for almost a year now, and he's such a sweetie to me. Our relationship has been going smoothly and of course we're kinda physical too. I know people say we're too young and everything but I think... we're in love. I can see myself marrying him and growing old together, like we're just so compatible. A few of my close girlfriendz have recently lost their virginities and they said it was great. I just feel kinda pressured to get it over with cause everyone in school makes a big deal about it. I do really like him and there was like one time where we were making out hard core and I could tell he sorta wanted it to happen... but I hesitated. But now I'm just having second thoughts and stuff but I just really don't know. Have any of you ever been in my position? Is there an appropriate time to just start having sex? Please help

My parents love each other more than their own kids?
My parents love each other more than their own kids? I think my parents are obsessed with each other, they are thankfully together for 20 years and in love to this very second, but they spend more time together than all of us as a family. we go on vacation once a year on new years, very repetitive and boring..my dad has even told me (I'm the oldest daughter who's 18) that if he could go back he would not have kids..but he says of course he loves us..i just feel no affection from my dad ever, he asked him to drive him to work and i was so excited because i could get 30 min of alone time with him in the car where we would just talk, and it was amazing..i wish i could get more time but he's either busy with work or going out on weekends with my mom..he also spoils my younger sisters a lot more, and has always treated me like an adult..what do i do? i have made mistakes and gone out and lied behind their backs like drink smoke, I'm not a virgin anymore either..they think they know me but they don't.

Are there any games that are like SimCity that are online and have a free version?
I love simulation games, specifically city building and management like Sim City, but don't have the money to buy it. And my girlfriend is cranky about what I download onto her computer. So I would like it to be a web browser game preferably.
