15 signs you’re in danger of cheating on your partner These gateways to cheating will lead to biting the forbidden apple—or at the very least, a breakdown of trust.
Sometimes what you may think is innocent behavior is anything but. While these seemingly meaningless acts don’t need to be preformed out of spite — or even a desire to be unfaithful — they can be gateways to cheating or show that your mind really isn’t all that focused on monogamy, as well as break down your trust in each other. Sharing intimate secrets When you start confiding in a member of the opposite sex about deep, dark secrets — your hopes and dreams in life, your rough childhood — instead of your spouse, you start going down a slippery slope of creating an intimate connection with the wrong person.…

20 tips for living with less plastic It's impossible to completely avoid plastic, but we have compiled the 20 most effective ways to limit your exposure.
Limiting the role of plastic in your life is a good goal to have. It will reduce exposure to the many toxins in plastic that pose a risk to human health, such as bisphenol A, styrene, lead, and phthalates, and you will have less plastic waste to send to landfill or recycling. Avoid the worst plastic offenders If you check the bottom of any plastic container, you’ll see a number (1 through 7) inside a triangle made of arrows. The worst plastics are: #3 – Polyvinyl Chloride, an extremely toxic plastic that contains dangerous additives such as lead and phthalates and is used in plastic wrap, some squeeze bottles, peanut…

7 reasons men think women should never get plastic surgery Women shouldn't have work done to any part of their bodies—and there's far more to it than the disasters.
Every single person in this world is insecure about something on their bodies, whether that is their hammerhead shark-shaped toes, to the bulbous noses that appear like woodshop-crafted door stops, and parked squarely in the middle of their faces. In a time and place where we can’t agree on anything, imperfections surely are what make us distinctly human, and should make us united on at least one front. But it’s one thing to have those insecurities, and it’s something quite different to act on erasing them. I’m talking about plastic surgery, the big business of making things both bigger and smaller. But if you asked most men, they’d tell you…

The art of the introduction The art of a great introduction will time and time again lead you to a world of opportunities. Here's everything you need to know.
We talk a great deal about how important first impressions are in business, but suggestions are almost universally spelled out for our own self-improvement, leaving out how we affect the first impressions that others make through our introductions. A bad introduction can cripple a conversation, and sour relationships, whereas a good one can make a conversation not only informative, but useful, as it can lead you and people around you to a world of opportunities down the line. I attended a conference with a friend recently. Overwhelmed by seeing so many colleagues and friends, she became engaged in conversation with everyone we met, often forgetting to introduce me.

It’s okay to eat fish ‘Cause they don’t have any feelings Back in the early 1990s, when rock band Nirvana was at the threshold stage of their colossal, but short, career, this particular sentiment on the closing song of their hit album Nevermind had a certain resonance with the ethical grunge set. I recall it was often intoned and repeated by fans, and those that just had a hunger for fish tacos who didn’t want to take the ethical hit of eating an animal with actual feelings. The factual basis of this claim, that fish are devoid of feelings, is shoddy science/research at best, but was faithfully perpetuated by hungry…

The no-BS way to find Mr. Right: date hundreds of men If you are looking for a job, would you apply for one job and then sit home waiting for that one call? No!
Two of my girlfriends and I were having dinner last week and the question about their dating life came up along with a lot of groans. Victoria bellowed, “does the dating BS ever end?” We all laughed, but then I very seriously said “Yes, of course it does.” We are all in our late 40′s and until a year ago were all single. I broke the dysfunctional dating cycle and got married. For the past year, I have been writing about my dysfunctional dating scenarios and how I finally figured out the formula to finding a life partner. I truly meant it when I told Victoria that “yes,” ending the…

Shields up! 3 ways to defend your brain against complaining children Neuroscience says whiney children not only annoy us—they actually impair our brain function. We have countermeasures.
We all know it’s not fun to listen to people complain—whether they’re coworkers, friends, or even, or perhaps especially, your own children. But did you know that neuroscience now says their negative complaining energy can actually impair your brain function? According to Inc., you should take steps to defend your brain from excessive complaining. The article profiles entrepreneur Trevor Blake’s book Three Simple Steps: A Map to Success in Business and Life, which examines data from neuroscientific studies. The research subjects were exposed to negativity in various forms — everything from long gripe sessions to 30-minute-plus negative television broadcasts — while the researchers measured their brain activity. It turns out that the…

Combine minimalism and Feng Shui to make your tiny house BIG From now on, every object around you needs to be useful, absolutely necessary, or uplifting.
As we enter a more progressive future full of immigrants and a confrontational approach to climate change, our living spaces will necessarily become smaller — much smaller. Pod living will become the new standard, while the more well-to-do build custom tiny homes on wheels. Living in these small spaces will require commitment to becoming minimalist as a foundation for our happiness. But don’t be scared. With a little planning, and some Feng Shui, we can pull off the deeper and truer happiness of not being encumbered by stuff, greater mobility (just attach the home to a car and go anywhere!), and the comfort of knowing we are leaving a much…
