Harmony comes depending on the circumstances and needs.

Our focus: family, money or work?

Each of us has a center which moves us to a greater extent. We can not fully understand, but this facility affects us and our development.

1. The center - a favorite person / family

As often happens, love - the whole world for us. And it's wonderful, because union makes us stronger and more confident. Relationship to charge, to inspire, but there is a downside ...

This is a strong emotional dependence on children or partners will. We become overly sensitive to the moods and feelings, to the behavior of their spouses, to the way they treat us, or to any external changes that could affect our relationship - to the birth of another child, to the relations with the relatives on both sides to financial difficulties, social success, and so on. For example, a quarrel with her beloved - messed up a relationship with a colleague or were unproductive all day at work.

2. The center - work.

Develop their business or improve their skills - useful. However, people concentrate on the job, to stick to the detriment of health and family, to associate himself primarily with his work: "I - a doctor," "I - writer", "I - a businessman." Their perception of themselves and a sense of self-worth associated with work - they are vulnerable, wisdom and power appear only in a limited sphere, making them ineffective in other areas of life.

3. The center - money

People concentrated on money, often neglected family and other important things, believing that everyone understands the priority of economic demands. To work for a comfortable future, their dreams and goals, a good environment for children - it is right. But it is not necessary to chase the money as the most important source of life - otherwise you and your consciousness is doomed. You will become fixated screw, which is always likely to be small. You will become those who will lose the true values.

4. The center - friends / enemies

When all your communication and activity swirling among friends - is, of course, interesting and fun. Surely, you are the soul of the company and you have a proven, reliable people. Or maybe your environment unhealthy. In any case, you become too dependent on the opinion of the majority, you are prone to herd instinct and do not develop other areas of life. And if you're fixated on enemies and retribution - burns you time and energy in vain, build your same misfortune.

5. The center - Fun

This center is inherent in young people. The man focused on a constant pleasure, does not know the work and work on yourself. He is not familiar with the responsibility and is always looking for a way to satisfy their needs. A man in such a state practically falls into narcissism and everything in life begins to perceive the light of pleasures that he can get right here and now.

6. The center - the man himself

In the center, narrowed to the "I", there is little room for internal security, internal orientation and wisdom. This center absorbs but does not give. There is stagnation. On the other hand, if a person is committed to self-development, in order then to more efficiently serve others, be more productive and make a meaningful contribution, it creates the basis for an extraordinary development.

Overall, most human center is a combination of several different centers. Most people's lives are influenced by many factors. Harmony comes when, depending on the circumstances and needs, which includes a specific center, is not contrary to the values and improving the standard of living...

Summer: a time (usually) free from school work and a time to relax with your friends and family. Maybe you go on a vacation or maybe you work all summer, but the time off really does help. When you're in college you become super close with so many people it's hard to think that you won't see many of them for three months. But, then you get that text saying, "Hey, clear your schedule next weekend, I'm coming up" and you begin to flip out. Here are the emotions you go through as your best friend makes her trip to your house.

Whether you specialized in ringing people up or preparing the food, if you worked at Panera Bread it holds a special place in your heart. Here are some signs that you worked at Panera in high school.

1. You own so many pairs of khaki pants you don’t even know what to do with them

Definitely the worst part about working at Panera was the uniform and having someone cute come in. Please don’t look at me in my hat.

7 Ways to Make Your Language More Transgender and Nonbinary Inclusive

With more people becoming aware of transgender and non-binary people, there have been a lot of questions circulating online and elsewhere about how to be more inclusive. Language is very important in making a space safer for trans and non-binary individuals. With language, there is an established and built-in measure of whether a place could be safe or unsafe. If the wrong language is used, the place is unsafe and shows a lack of education on trans and non-binary issues. With the right language and education, there can be more safe spaces for trans and non-binary people to exist without feeling the need to hide their identities or feel threatened for merely existing.
