Quotes of the Day

Laughter is the best medicine. [2009] - Liz Miller

When I know I’ll be in situations where my food choices are limited to less-than-healthy ones, I’ll load up with healthier choices either before or later that same day or the next day. The more healthy food you eat, the less room you have in your stomach—and in your life—for unhealthy food. Let the good displace the bad. [2019] - William W Li

The National Sleep Foundation feels it best not to eat any of food within 2-3 hours of bedtime. High-glycemic-index foods produce sleepiness, so if food must be consumed at night, dried fruit, cereal, or bananas are good choices. Other foods that're good choices for sleep contain high amounts of melatonin. These foods include walnuts and tart cherries (dried or juice). Foods high in magnesium (almonds) and calcium (milk, kale) can help promote relaxation and sleep. Avoid proteins that can often promote the synthesis of dopamine, a wake-promoting neurotransmitter. [2017] - W. Chris Winter

Freudian slip: if you allow a person to talk bout himself freely, eventually he will slip. [2004] - Brian Tracy

Smile if you notice someone cute on the subway, in the elevator in your building, or at your job. If you see this person a second time, you say something like, "it looks like we're on the same schedule. My name is... And you?" Then, follow up with a question, such as "Do you work (or live) in the building? I live (or work) on the seventeenth floor." The socially confident know that they often have to make the first move and be a bit forthcoming. [2004] - Bonnie Jacobson
