Nina Amir's Thoughts on Human Potential, Personal Growth and Practical Spirituality
Do you know a few people who really irritate you? Are there people you find it difficult to be around because you get annoyed and angry just by being near them for any length of time? Guess what. You can learn the most about your self from these people. I mentioned in my last post [...]
Have you ever had one of those days–or several days–when you feel so busy and stressed that you don’t think you can take a moment to breathe? And the more stressed you get, the worse your day gets? As your stress level goes up, your success rate plummets. Everything just seems to go wrong. Well, [...]
I’m one of those people who is perpetually late. I’m usually not enormously late…just about 10 minute or so. I don’t plan on being late. I just am…late. Even now, I really should be out taking a bike ride before the sun starts to go down. I don’t have to meet anyone or anything like [...]
