How do you choose your friends?

Someone once told me that the people you surround yourself with - your friends, your family, your work colleagues - are a reflection of who you are.

I often see people that share similar qualities, characteristics and values that seem to stay really close, so perhaps there is some truth to this thought. There must be an understanding or an attraction of sorts that exists between people, which keeps some close together and others significantly far apart.

The biggest lesson i can take from this idea is that if those around you are a reflection of at least one part of you, than it's best to surround yourself with individuals that make you happy and can add adventure, love and excitement to your life.

Those people who make you happiest are the ones to keep by your side, always and forever.

Is that cash, credit or slavings?

Once upon a time, when i worked in retail i was caught up in the whirlwind that involved trying to balance my part time earnings (while i studied) with my never ending spending. Time and time again i had to ask people at the cash register the same question of how they would part with their money to purchase their new found clothing. Would they be paying with cash, credit card or a savings account. For many it seemed credit was the most viable option, which i never understood as i believe it's the equivalent of spending money you don't have so you have no business in spending it anyway, but each to their own i suppose. Finally one customer came to make his purchase and i asked that famous question: "Will that be cash, credit or savings?" He answered with a sigh, "don't you mean slavings?!" I laughed back and thought how right he was. I guess for some people it really does feel that way. It made me think, in a way he was right. Aren't...

How is your life looking?

The question below is one that i have asked myself, as i imagine everyone has at some point; is life good? Am I happy? What makes me happy? What am i doing with my life? The answer, as it turns out, can be simple: yes or no. Without thinking too much about it and getting caught up in all the variables that can affect our happiness, we should focus on these two potential paths. If life is good, then that's good. Keep doing what you're doing and don't ever look back, but if life is not good, one must change something. Do something different so that you can improve your life and keep changing things until your answer to the same question becomes a yes. Source:  http://tinyurl.com/o5ch5fm
