Early Thursday morning, while the house was dark and still, my wife and I very quietly slipped out the front door and drove away. My wife and I were engaged in theft: We were stealing time. The kids would never suspect a thing.
All of us are busy throughout the day and usually by the time we get home after work or after the kids practices the last thing most want to do is get ready and go to the gym…

We all know that old saying, “Stop and smell the flowers,” well it’s true! You need to take a moment out of your everyday life just for you! Whether it’s 10min or an hour, it’s important to relax, not stress, and take care of you!

Most of us are masters at not finding time for exercise! Whether it is a sub conscious block or a jinxed activity, we simply can't seem to fit in the exercise schedule in our daily routine. Exercising is great activity that had to be followed in order to reap the benefits. Now how do you make time for exercising amidst the already overflowing schedule? 1. Firstly, you should understand the importa
There’s a story of a man who came home from work and found his three children outside, still in their pajamas, playing in the mud, with empty food boxes and wrappers strewn all around the front yard. The door of his wife’s car was open, as was the front door to the house and there [...]
The hardest thing about writing songs is finding the time to write. As we live in a world that tells us we have no time to do anything, how do we overcome this?
We overcome it by not buying into the fact that we have no time.
Every day, through every sort of media, we’re bombarded with [...]
Most of us never reach our goals that we set. Why? Because we don’t make them a priority.
As Alwyn Cosgrove said:
Tomorrow marks the 20% point of the year.
A fifth of 2008 has already passed.
Are you on track with those New Years Resolutions? Are you on track with your goals?
It’s amazing how time passes so quickly.
Don’t [...]

Louise and Phil Pankhurst are in their early fifties. They both work full-time, but like to spend time in the garden at weekends and on summer evenings. They want a garden with a Mediterranean style that will suit their sunny climate and remind them of a recent trip.
Phil Pankhurst is an information technology specialist at the university nearby. Louise is the director of a charity. They want a
Continuing the anniversary celebration, I brought this post up from the archives.How do you have time to read, write, keep house, etc.?Over the last six years, I've fielded some derivation of this question too often to count.There exists in me a curmudgeonly inclination to lob this back into the inquirer's court: How do you not? But some readers are too sensitive for this bold an approach.Heh, heh, heh.Look. My writing is my work. Asking me how I find time to write is a bit like asking a barkeep how he finds time to tend bar or an information systems engineer how she makes time to develop projects. It's what I do, and in order to be paid -- well and on time -- I must get the work done.The rest? The reading, learning, living, blogging even? Well, I sleep less to read more, and I have, quite simply, never understood the big deal about keeping an organized and comfortable home.But if you require something more specific, consider this list of don'ts the next time you find that you have
I wonder if I will be able to write as often as I had originally envisioned. Of course, I don't want to start a blog and then have only the blog title sitting around for blog eternity. But my real motivation for blogging is because I want to share my life experiences as a traveling young scientist with other scientists and others from different walks of life. I won't be the first (nor the last) to say this — the blogosphere has transformed the way in which the world exchanges information, and hence the way the world works. Blogs serve us well. For scientists, blogs provide yet another avenue to network with one another and exchange opinions, findings, and experiences. Blogs are easy to set up and use, free of charge (for many blog providers), offer flexibility in design and most importantly, its reach is unlimited. However, even with the ease of use, I am finding it difficult to write regularly. I am sure some of you feel the same way. After a long and hard day's work, it
