My apartment is a mess again, so I spent 2 hours cleaning it up. Like the common stuff, vacuming, kitchen, bathroom, clothes n stuff. And now all that remains is cleaning up my sticky notes, but I can't force myself to throw them away, so doing that trick I do from time to time. I go through them, and I toss all the stupid ones, and I put the cool ones over here in my blog.
Enjoy xD

- It's not what happens to us, but our response to what happens to us that hurts us.
- Timing, right when something positive happens is the time when it's most awesome to say it, affirm it, compliment it. Makes you link positive patterns to when it's occuring.
And when we do poorly, take it up afterwards, then go through idea, tips and tricks to fix.
- Reward yourself every day, lots of short term goals. Reward yourself each time you take action instead of worrying.

The 4 most important things to look for in a partner
+ Show Spoiler +
What they say, they do.
INTEGRITYis paramount. It is linked to self worth within that individual and it builds trust. Someone who isn’t integral is more likely to be dishonest or to never follow through on their commitments.
Smart
This could range from someone who has an excellent education or is smart in other ways of life. Ultimately it comes down to being with someone who challenges you and pushes you to be better.
Love
A strong emotional connection is an important factor in building a sustainable relationship. You must be able to connect with your partner on an internal level for it to with-stand time. This is why they say best friends tend to make great partnerships as they have a strong foundation on an emotional level. Love can be defined in so many ways and only you can really determine what it feels like or looks like in a partnership.
Physical connection
Aside from having a strong emotional connection it is also paramount that you have a strong physical attraction. This is then broken down into two conditions. The external image isn’t everything but being physically attracted to your partner is very important long-term.
(i) Good Physical Condition: Not only for sex appeal or “eye candy” but because someone who is in physically good condition can perform better sexually. In general someone who is in good physical shape has better stamina and hygiene.
(ii) “Make Good Sex”: What he means here is learn what the other needs sexually in order for them to have maximum satisfaction. If your partner isn’t getting what they need sexually then they will likely look outside of the relationship in order to find it.
Detecting lies and deception
+ Show Spoiler +
- Formal rather than non formal
- will unconciously distance themself (distance language, like that woman).
- Much more to it than speech, we all chatter with our fingertips.
- Body language slips (throw assumptions away).
- Liars look a little too much in their eye.
- Eyes can't conciously smile.
Honest people will be on your side, cooperative, brain storm, provide details, infuriated through the entire course if honest, and when asking for punishment, they'll say strict rather than lenient.
While a deceptive person may be more withdrawn, look down, herky derky, lower voice, pause, pepper with way to much details in all kinds of irrelevant places.
Then go at it in chronological order, ask them to tell their story backwards, we rehearse our words, but we rarely rehearse our gestures, (just words)
Dupe delight:
(make one expression well masking another that leaks through in a flash)
expression of contempt <--- when anger turns to that, you've been dismissed, very hard to recover from,
one lip up and in.
More indicatiors:
shift their blink rate, feet towards an exit, barrier objects between, alter vocal tone, often lower. Not proof, just redlights, don't mean any of themself, but when you see clusters of them, look probe, ask questions.
Have a little dignity, don't be too aggressive, it doesn't work.
