Top 20 tips to increase stamina

We all love to be energetic. We have our favourite athletes and sportsmen whose energy we can’t help but marvel at. We get tired merely by climbing two floors and for them, even twenty would be a cake walk. Whenever one mentions the word ‘stamina’, what comes to our mind is physical strength. We do not associate the word to mental exertion. However, mental  stamina  is as important as your physical stamina. The mental aspect of enduring exertion is referred to as endurance. Endurance and stamina are two sides of the same coin and cannot go without each other. Now, you often wonder how to increase stamina by natural means? There are steroids and supplements available but they aren’t the way a lot of people prefer going about increasing stamina. The best part is that you need not go that way at all. There are natural means which are a combination of diet, exercise and lifestyle modifications that can increase your stamina the natural way. Here we are listing the top 20 ways t...

A Peaceful Mind Generates Power

At Breakfast in a Hotel dining room three of us fell to discussing how well we had slept the night before, a truly momentous topic. One man complained of a sleepless night. He had tossed and turned and was about as exhausted as when he retired. "Guess I'd better stop listening to the news before going to bed," he observed, "I tuned in last night and sure got an ear full of trouble." That is quite a phrase, "an ear full of trouble". Little wonder he had a disturbed night. "Maybe the coffee I drank before retiring had something to do with it," he mused. The other man spoke up, "As for me, I had a grand night.I got my news from the evening paper and from an early broadcast and had a chance to digest it before I went to sleep. Of course," he continued,"I used my go-to-sleep plan which never fails to work." I prodded him for his plan, which he explained as follows:"When I was a boy, my father, a farmer, had the habi...

Life Values : Your Personal Compass

" A man's character is his guardian divinity." - HERACLITUS Values guide our every decision and, therefore, our destiny. Those who know their values and live by them become the leaders of our society. They are exemplified by outstanding individuals throughout our nation, from the boardroom to the classroom. Too often, people have no clear  idea of what's important to them. They waffle on any issue; the world is a mass of gray to them; they never take a stand for anything or anyone.  If you and I are not clear about what's most important in our lives -what we truly stand for--then how can we ever expect to lay the foundation for a sense of self-esteem, much less have the capacity to make effective decisions? If  you've ever found yourself in a situation where you had  a tough time making a decision about something, the reason is that you weren't  clear about what you value most within that situation. We must remember that all decision making comes do...

Ultimate Influence - Your Master System

                                    Two  Kinds of Change If you and I want to change anything in our lives, it's  invariably one of two things : either how we're feeling or our behaviors.  Certainly we can learn how to change our emotions  or feelings within a context. For example, if you feel fearful of being rejected as an actor, I can help you to condition yourself so that you no longer feel fearful.  Or we can make the second kind of change: a global change. A metaphor for this might be that if we want to change the way your computer is processing data, I can change the software that you're using so that when you hit the keys what shows up on the screen is formatted differently. Or if I really want to make change that will not only affect this type of file, but multiple environments, I can change the computer's operating system. By changing the Master System, we ...

SAVING The Secret to Saving Money 9 MINUTE READ We all have good intentions when it comes to saving money, right? We tell ourselves we’ll start saving once we reach a certain milestone, like when we hit a specific age, get a raise, or the kids move out.
