Heading To The Beach Is A Great Way To Relax And Destress

I have always wondered why the beach ranks number-one on everyone's favorite list of places. Apparently, there is a strong and valid reason as to why the beach has and will always remain everyone's favorite place. While researching the reason, I stumbled across an article focusing on a neuroscientific understanding of the situation. The article pinpoints how the beach triggers feelings of radiance and a renewed sense of hope.

As the waves come soaring up, it brings with it a dash of turbulence evened out with serenity and calmness. In addition, the beach will stimulate the reboot of your creative juices and make it even easier for you to come up with mind-blogging ideas and techniques to emerge as more successful.

Most importantly, watching kids optimistically working to build sand castles will remind you of the fact that despite the gushing waves forcefully ruining the kid's sand castles, they are not giving up and are continuing to build a new one again and again until the waves finally decide to give in to their insistence. Similarly, this logic can be applied in adults because we should always keep in mind that if one door closes, then another door will open! We just have to always remain alert and keep our thinking caps on.

Also, the beach provides people with another chance of embracing life with their flaws and perfections. A simple walk across the beach serves as the natural antidote to ongoing feelings of despair and an anxious mind. Just simply being close to the naturally flowing waters is more than enough to elicit positive feedbacks and increased levels of personal satisfaction within a person. It is primarily inborn rather than influenced by external forces.

Many of an individual's mood swings can be altered and the willingness to live your life to the fullest is further enhanced by "blue space." Honestly, just walking by the beach makes me feel even more powerful than before and it truly does provide me with the tenacity to fight against the potential challenges that come up in during the journey of life. So there is indeed an actual reason why we tend to love the beach so much!

10 Signs You Work In A Restaurant

There's always chaos in the restaurant business.

10 Signs You Work In A Restaurant
Brisanis

Working in the restaurant industry is possibly the most fundamentally challenging occupation I have ever experienced when it comes to hospitality and customer service. When you go to a five-star restaurant you expect the time of your life, a two hour getaway, a walk through another time period (rustic Italy, France, Spain, etc), or simply a honeymoon undergo. What you don't see are the behind the scenes scut work: carrying trays, polishing glassware and silverware, kitchen chaos, the list is endless. Now, I'm not saying being a host, server, or bartender is the worst thing in the whole wide world, there are definitely worse things. But the fact of the matter is that it isn't always sunshine and rainbows. In the two years that I have spent in restaurant and customer service, I have spoken my share of expletives, yelled at kitchen staff, and dealt with not-so-happy guests. It isn't easy to keep a bright and shiny smile on your face when all you want to do is choke every person who walks near you. Anyone who has spent even two weeks working in a restaurant understands the rigor and stress that comes with it. Restaurant culture is a tiny world in and of itself that operates on its own principles and creates its own society. It even has its own language. The sayings "runner", "corner", and "on a bus" wouldn't make sense to anyone otherwise. My mother and I both work in a restaurant and the best advice I can give someone going out to eat is to treat us like people. Yes...believe it or not we are people, people. Say "please" and "thank you", or stack your cleared plates before a busser gets to the table. Trust me, the gesture goes a lot farther than you may think.

So, if you work in a restaurant, you can relate with the following points. If not, check out how the brain of a restaurant service (or any customer service) worker actually works. See if you can identify any crazy weird habits your friends have a tendency to partake in.

One of the scariest things we will ever face in our life is going to college. Many of us move away to a new town, join new organizations, and make new friends. We are expected to study, have a social life, relationships, maybe work, and be healthy. It seems pretty easy to do, and in high school all we wanted to do was graduate and move on to this next chapter of our lives. If you are in high school, here are some things that you can learn from before you get to college. If you have already been through your freshman year of college, hopefully you can relate to the things I have learned in college.
