A message on living well

A MESSAGE THAT HOLDS GOOD FOR ALL TIMES, ALL AGES AND ALL FAITHS. LET US TRY TO FOLLOW AS MUCH OF IT AS POSSIBLE…..

An Angel says, 'Never borrow from the future. If you worry about what may happen tomorrow and it doesn't happen, you have worried in vain. Even if it does happen, you have to worry twice.'

1. Go to bed on time.
2 Get up on time so you can start the day unrushed.
3. Say 'No' to projects that won't fit into your time schedule, or that will compromise your mental health.

4. Delegate tasks to capable others.
5. Simplify and unclutter your life.
6. Less is more. (Although one is often not enough, two are often too many.)
7. Allow extra time to do things and to get to places.

8. Pace yourself. Spread out big changes and difficult projects over time; don't lump the hard things all together.
9. Take one day at a time.
10. Separate worries from concerns . If a situation is a concern, let go of the anxiety . If you can't do anything about a situation, forget it.
11. Live within your budget; don't use credit cards for ordinary purchases.

12.. Have backups; an extra car key in your wallet, an extra house key buried in the garden, extra stamps, etc.
13. K.M.S. (Keep Mouth Shut). This single piece of advice can prevent an enormous amount of trouble.
14. Do something for the Kid in You everyday.

15. Carry a book with you to read while waiting in line.
16. Get enough rest.
17. Eat right.
18. Get organized so everything has its place.
19. Listen to a tape while driving that can help improve your quality of life.
20. Write down thoughts and inspirations.
21. Every day, find time to be alone.
22. Having problems? Talk to someone. Try to nip small problems in the bud. Don't wait until it's time to go to bed.
23. Make friends.
24. Laugh.
25. Laugh some more!
26 Take your work seriously, but not yourself at all.
27. Develop a forgiving attitude (most people are doing the best they can).
28. Be kind to unkind people (they probably need it the most).
29. Sit on your ego.
30 Talk less; listen more.
31. Slow down.
32. Remind yourself that you are not the general manager of the universe..
33. Every night before bed, think of one thing you're grateful for that you've never been grateful for before. IT MAY HAVE A WAY OF TURNING THINGS AROUND FOR YOU.

Mac vs Pc


I just got myself a new Macbook recently. A Macbook Pro to be exact. Looks cool doesn't it ? Its a 13-inch model dual core i5.

One of the first thing I noticed was how sleek it is. glass panel display instead of the usual lcd monitors on laptops which are prone to dead pixels. Had a couple of them on my IBM laptop... yeah really old one.

And then i happily logged in and got lost. was not used to the system at all. shortcuts that worked in windows are totally different in Mac.

instead of Ctrl or Alt keys I find myself using Command a lot more.

From a user perspective it is a lot more friendly compared to windows. the total setting up is a lot easier and intuitive.

installing programs or rather applications is just click and drag into the application folder.

the trackpad is a lot winder and more interesting to use with its multi touch scrolling and navigation.

But hey don't listen to me watch this video below to see a review of the Macbook Pro which introduces more of the cool features.

Boyzone : Air That I Need


Heard this song on radio a few days back and felt really nostalgic. Nice song but I forgot the title and singer until my good friend Google helped me find it haha.
