CONTROLLING T-I-M-E . . .

Time is within your control.
Each man is given exactly 24 hours-a-day, but it is how time is spent or wasted that spells success, mediocrity or failure. Does'nt it amaaze you that the people who make the worst use of time maybe the same ones who complain that there is never enough time? Rather than thinking time management all the time, why not start thinking "task management". Prioritize tasks that add value to your life success goals. Allow me to share you a poem by Leon Hansen:
Take Sometime
Take some time to smell the flowers as you walk the paths of life
Take some time to ease the tensions from the challenges and the strife
Take some time to hear the birds sing as they usher the dawn
Though the day be just emerging too soon it will be gone
Take some time to watch a sunrise, now and then a sunset too
Take some time to count your blessings, though you feel they're not that great
You will find they're more abundant than you thought at any rate
Take some time to banish hatred when and where you can
Just detest man's evil ways and not your fellow man
Take some time to love your children every moment you are free
The benefits sure exceed a university degree
Take some time to love your neighbor, and even more important still
Tale some rime to love yourself or not many others will.

BE aware, sociologist say that the most important currency for the 21st century is t-i-m-e, not money.

SMOKING c-y-c-l-e . . .

Cigarettes contain nicotine, which is the substance responsible for the addiction. Once nicotine reaches the brain, it will release chemicals called norepinephrine and dopamine, both of which make us feel good.
However, this nicotine high does not last very long. Soon you will get a tolerance to nicotine, which means you will have smoke more cigarettes to get the same pleasurable feeling. Just like any other addiction, the problem is that once you stop the supply of nicotine, you will feel weak and down. This will stimulate you to get your next puff. Hence your brain is now addicted to cigarettes.

If you really want to quit smoking, you must identify the situations that trigger you to smoke and do your best to avoid them.
BE aware, according to American Lung Association, the health benefits of quitting will begin just 20 minutes after your last cigarette. Your blood pressure and heart rate will decrease, and the oxygen content of your body will increase. By the time you reach 15 years of never touching a cigarette, your risk of dying will be the same as a non-smoker.

SKIP breakfast before workout

Scientists say that if you really want to get rid of more fat, you should skip the pre-workout snack. Studies suggested that when your body is low on food maybe a good way to trim excess fat. Muscles usually get their energy from carbohydrates, which is why athletes like Lance Armstrong and Michael Phelps scarf down large amounts of food before a race. But if you have not eaten before exercising your body does not have many carbohydrates in reserve. That forces to burn fat instead.

Experts said that when you exercise (after fasting) your adrenalin is high and your insulin is low. That ratio is favorable for your muscles to oxidize (break down) more fatty acids. People who exercise without having eating burn more fat than they would if they have grabbed a bite before hand
