    kaylar wrote a new post, A few of my Super Powers 7 years, 7 months ago

    I realised when I was just a kid that I had ‘super powers’.    It was very creepy in a way because it was as if I could see things that ‘weren’t there’ and ‘hear things’ no one else did.

    These are the super p […]

    • Wow, reading on, I realized that you are a very gifted person for having those qualities or super powers as you call it.

      Indeed listening can be a power by itself. Even knowing when to be silent is a power also.

      Observing too is a super power. These 3 are what I should learn to have. I am not observant, maybe because I always hurry. I don’t even sometimes observe how a person is before I speak my mind. Now I know, I should be.

      Listening, I sometimes just blurt out without letting the other person finish what he is talking about , so much so that argument will ensue. This is true with my hubby and me.

      Thank you for making me realize I can have those super powers too. 🙂

    Years ago, authors were paid by the word.  So, more words more money.   People expected a few pounds of a novel and a few days or weeks of reading.   In those days, More was More.

    Books of one thousand plus pa […]

    • One can write three hundred words but still it is concise. Short and sweet!

      • The interesting thing is that where a few years ago writing 1000 words was no problem, today, one becomes so concise that a topic is covered in 280 words, requiring one to go back and add.

      • Yes, one can write a 300 word article yet it already has taken all the important aspects.

        It is challenging to write more than 500 words. You must have the experience for your topic and very familiar with what you are writing for you to write that long.

        • In the old days people were in the verbose habit. They went around and around before making the point. Today it is very boring to read that kind of stuff.

    A special thanks to a fellow bloggers at Literacy Base, who published posts about historical figures and questioning why these people were recorded in history as heroes, which is a very good question. One post was […]

    • If that is the case with Alexander the Great, I wonder really why he is called the Great.

      Though, for those who died and were declared heroes or great, they never knew they became one. Their greatness or heroism is always recognized once they are are dead.

      Sad, but this is always the case, and I think you will agree with me.

      In your 30 years of life , you were happily married, but Alexander died . What a contrasting life you and Alexander experienced. 🙂

      • Yes I agree with you. What is even sadder is Alexander’s is sort of a mystery. Have read different accounts and some say it a murder and others say it was a disease. And as if his death was not bad enough, what they did to his wife and child after he died was even more horrific. He sure wasn’t treated as if people thought he was great!

      You can never win over an airhead. It is already inculcated in his head that he is right and no one can beat him.

      Sad, that this attitude is what people don’t like in a person. he is being laughed at or hated when he turns his back to the people he was with.

    Each and every individual would like to have a good name, fame and  image in the society and to achieve this especially when we are in business or […]

    • Actually, the best thing to do to be able to build your financial credibility is to live simply.

      By living simply, means you get to pay your bills on time , buy what you only need and be able to save some for your future or a big want like a car.

      Indeed, paying ahead of the deadline would create an image to the credit company that you are a good payor. Even without asking for an additional credit limit, they will keep calling you to avail of their low interest loan.

      Why should you take the loan on the first place, when you have no need for it.

      So, better yet, never entertain them, lest your debt will increase if you take them being enticed by the little interest.

    • It is still best to have a stable offline job than rely on online writing jobs. Yes, they cannot sustain your living because you really have to spend so much time for you to be able to earn some amount.

      We can go to these online earning sites for additional income but not for your sustenance. Though, these online earning sites can earn you a lot of friends from all over the world.

      That’s the bonus of being on an online earning site even for an hour or two only.

    Mahesh wrote a new post, Never Rely on one Thing for Long 7 years, 8 months ago

    This is one lesson that reminded me of all my bad times. I learned that I should never rely on one resource for long time. There is no way one can make things meet with one resource at a time. It can be fatal if […]

    • As the river water which keeps flowing until it reaches sea or ocean is fresh because there is movement which means constant and continuous change taking place that is the reason why it remains pure and clean. Similarly if we are stuck to one particular in our life like an actor playing just one role in his life there is no growth in his or her career graph. This same pattern can be found in many things seen in life.

      If change takes place it gets a new sense of perspective to the mind so new thoughts and thought patterns develop out of which something new and good or bad is created on how one directs one mind or in what direction does one direct his or her mind. We generally make the constant into our comfort zone and are uncomfortable getting out of the zone. This again is not a good thing as even this hinders growth as movement which is forward leads to growth. Thanks for the share.

    • Nothing in this world is constant except change, as the saying goes. And this is very true.

      Imagine, here in our place a rich family has a long distance call business and was flourishing before the emergence of cellphones.

      But with the emergence of cellphones, long distance telephone company went down and so with those telegraph companies.

      It being this way, we should be ready for change when it comes. Embrace it and try to adapt to the change. It will be difficult initially but over time when you are accustomed to it, you will like it.

    • Nothing in this world is permanent, we are all on a journey and we all know that journeys can have detours right? So if you in this world just know that there will be changers in your life all the time. Today you may have money tomorrow you are broke. All this things happen for a very good reason. They come to teach us that stuff comes and goes we can never hold onto something forever. It’s not only in material stuff even our human life we have the day when we’re born and there will be a day when we die so we cannot say for sure that we have our lives intact.they will one day end. When it comes to jobs, we can never tell how long we will have them, a day will certainly come when we will find something better and more interesting to move onto. So in short change is good, and doing multiple things is to your advantage.
