15 Points For a Happy Life



  •  Do not take your dental hygiene lightly. You have 32 teeth, ask a dentist and you'll realize each one can cost you more than their weight in gold. And if that's not enough, try taking a trip to a dentist and spending some quality time on that chair!
  • Never debate with religious people.You will never win, and they will stop being nice to you. So enjoy the free lunches and keep your mouth shut.
  • Do not wonder about the “purpose of life”.It is a depressing ditch. Believe me, I have spent a lot of time there.
  • Do not update your social media display pics too often. The identity that you project on social media is always more romantic than your real life. Those hundreds of likes on your display pic may give you a boosted sense of self importance and may feed your need for attention. If you fall in love with your own projection of your facebook life, you know something needs to be changed.
  • Do not make big goals.Make micro goals and make a system to achieve them continuously. Continuous stream of small achievements can fill you up with confidence and add a lot of value to your daily life. Having big goals is like gambling. Even if you beat all the odds and win big, you still won't be satisfied for long. System of micro goals is like investment, it will slowly but steadily compound into big and more stable wealth of achievements.
  • Do not believe in miraculous success stories.One of the perks of being successful is that you get to boast about yourself and people still take you seriously. Do not fall in that trap. Success stories are often over romanticized and overdramatized for bagging claps. Take them with a pinch—rather a fist—of salt.
  • Do not be overly altruistic. Helping someone who does not need your help doesn’t do any good. Tying your self worth to your selflessness can practically damage you, and even when your help is appreciated, if it comes too easy every time, it will loose its worth. Be good, be kind, but be slightly selfish.

  • Do not be self-righteous.Living with too many scruples sucks. Chances are, your views will change with your age. If you define your rights and wrongs too rigidly, you might have to eat them later. Live on axiomatic principles and have a flexible belief system.
  • Do not believe your superiors when they say they are “open to criticism”. No… they really aren’t. At least not from their subordinates. The healthy criticism that you may like to dispense might not actually be healthy for you.
  • Do not watch romantic movies. At least not with your partner. It can screw your life. You will be perennially expected to do for free, what actors on screen do for a hefty sum.
  • Do not say “no” very oftenThere is a lot for you to gain beyond every “yes”. Moreover, saying “no” more than “yes” destroys the gravity of your “no”.
  • Do not skip family gatheringsEven if you have an aunt who always compares you with her kids, even if you have an uncle who can’t help giving you superfluous life advice, even if you have cousins who are more successful than you are, and even if you have never won a debate with your mom (no one has), try to attend family gatherings as far as you can. Think of it as a healthy torture.
  • Never drink bad alcohol. Never drink in bad company. Never drink in bad mood.
    These are the three rules of happy drinking. Never drink if any of these conditions are violated. Oh… and never drink alone.
  • Never send a mail without proofreading. Read it at least once before sending. Watch out for CCs if you are replying to a mail. Pay attention to punctuation and spelling mistakes. Remember, auto-correct is like your friend who never misses a chance to embarrass you.
  • Don’t take yourself too seriously. Just like everyone else, you don’t matter.

    What Chester Bennington taught us creatively, and his influence: Tribute to Chester

    Image
    Linkin Park has given us lot of music and songs to think about ourselves in a different way. the two men behind  this are Chester Bennington ,  Mike Shinoda .Chester is no more today but you can feel his presence when you listen to “Numb” or “In the end”. he knew how to play with the words and music. the way of creation from Chester came from the inner scene and relating to the bigger outer world which is always the dominant form of expression.  But when we look at the person named Chester Bennington and his journey of life we come to some obvious points like marijuana, alcohol, opium, cocaine, methamphetamine,L SD and the childhood sexual abuse .yeah these are some things which he has gone through in his life tenure.now people who use a holistic point of view will say all of these are not good,but no one got the authority to judge any creator. he has given us good music and made us connect to the world through music. creation takes creativity, but grea...

    In 2015, almost 272000 foreign nationals were granted resident status in Canada, the highest admissions level since 2010 and within the planned range in the 2015 immigration levels plan. Economic category admissions in 2015 increased by 3% compared with 2014, to more than 170000 (including accompanying family).

The provincial nominee program was the second-largest group at 44500 admissions, down from 47600 in 2014. Caregivers continued to be the third largest group under the economic category, with admissions of 27200 in 2015. The biggest increase in permanent migration -both in absolute numbers and proportion - was in the refugee and protected person category, which saw over 58 000 overall admissions in 2016, up from 31900 in 2015, and 23300 in 2014.  This is mainly in response to the Syrian refugee crisis: Canada resettled more than 40000 Syrian refugees between November 2015 ...

    Creative Blocks : How Dillema Can shape Creator in Better Form

    Image
    Creator’s dilemma happens with every creator. And this is termed as various blocks such as writer's block and feel of non creativity. This phase creates a non-creative limbo which make people believe that they are unable to create or make a move towards the creative goal. This is very basic problem in creators who are insecure about the consequence, that implies every creator have to go through this kind of dilemma and get out of that. Now getting out of this kind of creators block or dilemma is not tough but time consuming. Just give it some time it will be good and the same again is the standard code of conduct. But in other hand creators can use this phase as a force to sharpen their creative forces and come out as a more seasoned creative personal. this kind of dilemma has always happened repeatedly in history of all persons who have created something. in human history creators have faced multiple kind of dilemmas in their life but they have just not only dealt wi...
