Quotes of the Day

Many studies have confirmed what your mother told you: We need to sleep about 7.5 to 8.5 hours a night. Getting significantly less sleep than this, or significantly more, will almost inevitably cause problems in the long run. Even a single night of bad sleep has been found to have deleterious effects on our physical and cognitive performance. Sleep is essential to performance in dangerous tasks, such as driving. [2023] - Peter Attia

If I was in a high-income bracket and had maxed out on my contributions to RRSPs and TFSAs, but I still wanted to invest more, real estate might be the way to do it. It's more tax-effective than some types of investment. Also, it would be a good way to take advantage of low interest rates. [2021] - Frederick Vettese

Buy some new toothbrushes, and ensure they are not too soft. You’ll want to concentrate on reaching all the areas of your gums: even higher above, on the inside areas, and below your teeth in the areas of the teeth’s roots. Brushing techniques that target teeth and do not reach your gums will leave plaque at the gum margins in an infected mouth. In some cases, a battery-operated brush can be useful, since the vibrations help to stimulate circulation when dexterity or access to the mouth is difficult. In other situations, when the vibrations are not tolerable, cleaning the gums with a manual brush or even a sponge or cloth may be your best option. [2018] - Ellie Phillips

The Law of Attraction: You are a living magnet; you invariably attract into your life the people, ideas, and circumstances that harmonize with your dominant thoughts. [2004] - Brian Tracy
