Quotes of the Day

An email isn't a text message. You should use proper grammar and sentence structure. Steer clear of netspeak like "ur," "ya." or "wat." However, users do respond well to humor, so "haha" and "lol" are OK. [2013] - Laurie Davis

Some successful signs have more than six words, but not many. Probably the most successful of all have just one to three words. Your sign must be replaced on a regular basis (monthly or weekly). Unless you have the time to check your signs, look into posting services. You can find them listed in your Yellow Pages under "signs" or "bulletin boards." Typewriter type is fine. Clear, handsome hand lettering is probably best. [1998] - Jay Conrad Levinson

Low-protein (9 percent), very high-fat (90 percent) keto diets are therapeutic in certain circumstances, such as for the treatment of epilepsy in children; and very low-carb, low-energy diets can help reverse the symptoms of type 2 diabetes; but neither is sustainable nor desirable for most of us as a regular diet. Even somewhat less extreme low-carb, high-fat diets have low compliance—most of us soon drift back to a more balanced mixture of macronutrients. The longest-lived, healthiest populations on the planet are those who consume a lower-protein, high-carb whole-food diet. [2020] - David Raubenheimer

For general stress relief associated with shyness management, connect with nature to develop a sense of being part of a larger whole.

All you have to do is be creative and you can be rich for life. It is a way of thinking that creates assets and once you have that way of thinking you will be richer than you ever dreamed possible. [2000] - Robert T. Kiyosaki
