If we actually attempt to step in a positive direction , we can and will.A lot can happen in a day, week, month or year so ruling out that something will never happen at all is not realistic and quite foolish.

getthisfirefighterfit: Throwback Thursday! Now this is by no means a “before and after” shot, because the pic on the left is taken about 8 months before I started this.. It is however me at my heaviest and my leanest.. I wouldn’t mind weighing over 200 lbs again, but with the same body fat percentage as the photo on the right ;). Looking back at those “old” photos I feel proud of how far I’ve come, but also saddened by how many years I spent looking and feeling unhealthy! But my eyes are open now, and I’m never ever going back to that dark place again.. Ps. Thanks for all of your amazing messages and replies. I always try to get back to everyone.. I’m workin on it ;) You guys rock! Good night Tumblr…
Successful Interviewing Tips

onlinecounsellingcollege:

1. Before applying for a job, find out as much as you can about it – and make sure it’s something you want to do!

2. Also, find out what you can about the interviewers. For example, what are their names and job titles? What other jobs have they done in the past? You can often uncover a lot of information by simply googling peoples’ names and positions.

3. Try and find out about the company’s normal interviewing style. For example, is it likely to be one-on-one interview, or will you be interviewed by a couple of people, or will there be an interview panel? Also, will you be required to sit any kinds of test (general knowledge, case studies, IQ tests etc.)?

4.  If possible, connect with others who have undergone a similar interview. Ask them for tips and ideas – or things to watch out for, or how best to prepare.

5. Research the company. It’s important to know as much as possible about the company’s history, what it does now, it’s plans for the future – and the expectations associated with the job.

6. Be clear about what you have to offer the company. It’s important that you match their needs to your experience, abilities and personality. Practising selling yourself to them!

7. If possible, rehearse the interview with a friend.

8. Pay attention to your appearance. Dress appropriately (err on the side of dressing conservatively); make sure you look tidy and smart; brush your hair and teeth; wear perfume or aftershave (but not so much that it’s overpowering).

9. Check out the directions is advance (if necessary drive there the day before to make sure you don’t get lost). Arrive 5 minutes early for the interview.

10. Be confident, respectful, polite, truthful, positive and enthusiastic. Think carefully before you respond – use proper grammar, and don’t speak too quickly.

anybody else’s. Your path is unique
to you. Whatever path you take,
it’s God calling you."

Learn not to give a fuck, you’ll be happier.
"The truth is, each one of us has a calling, and the desire to pursue that calling has been put in every heart. Our real job in life isn’t making money, building a beautiful home, collecting friends, or finding a soul mate. Our real job is to find out what our calling is and to engage it. Identify which of your strengths bring you joy. That is your purpose: to share your passion with others. As you do so, you heal yourself and others."
-Jordan Bach
Tips for Dealing with Procrastination

psych-facts:

onlinecounsellingcollege:

1. Recognise how much it costs you in the short and long term. In the end avoidance almost always leads to pain.

2. Make yourself do something – even if it’s something relatively small. Usually, the pay-off is huge - and an amazing motivator to keep on going, and tackle something else.

3. Persuade yourself to do something before the due date. Again, this usually gives us an emotional boost, so we feel really pleased with, and proud of, ourselves.
