Wise Words

Sleep! It's good for you!

A recent study shows that America is the most sleep-deprived nation. Perhaps due to our strict work ethics and busy lives, many Americans have been treating sleep as if it were an option. The study also found that pessimism, crankiness, and overall stress is linked to a lack of sleep.

To stay healthy and combat stress, make sure to schedule in a good amount of sleep as priority.

Worrying

"Worrying is like a rocking chair, sure it gives you something to do, but in the end you never get anywhere."

How is life?

If you don’t like the way life is treating you, then look at the way you are treating life.

Wisdom

UThe beginning of wisdom is silence.

The second step is listening.

Seven Simple Computer Security Tips

· Use strong passwords. Choose passwords that are difficult or impossible to guess. Give different passwords to all accounts.

· Make regular backups of critical data. Backups must be made at least once each day. Larger organizations should perform a full backup weekly and incremental backups every day. At least once a month the backup media should be verified.

· Use virus protection software. That means three things: having it on your computer in the first place, checking daily for new virus signature updates, and then actually scanning all the files on your computer periodically.

· Use a firewall as a gatekeeper between your computer and the Internet. Firewalls are usually software products. They are essential for those who keep their computers online through the popular DSL and cable modem connections but they are also valuable for those who still dial in.

· Do not keep computers online when not in use. Either shut them off or physically disconnect them from Internet connection.

· Do not open e-mail attachments from strangers, regardless of how enticing the Subject Line or attachment may be. Be suspicious of any unexpected e-mail attachment from someone you do know because it may have been sent without that person’s knowledge from an infected machine.

* Regularly download security patches from your software vendors.

SPINNING THE WHEELS IN OUR MINDS

Most people would be much happier if they were curious about everything but only concerned themselves with the things that they can do something about. It is a waste of life to dwell on those things which one cannot change.

Responsibility

If you cannot be honest with yourself, how can you expect anyone else to believe you.

Life unlived

Dont be afraid of death, be afraid of an unlived life.

"GIVE" , "ACCEPT" , "HEART" & " SOUL"

To "Give" love is best. It nurtures the "Soul".

To "Accept" failure transcends the "Soul" to know humility and to move on.

The final recipe for the two ingredients above is content ness of the "HEART" and most importantly, "THE SOUL.”

No-one's perfect

No-one is perfect......until you fall in love with them!

Add Fitness to your Daily Routine

If you find you can't devote enough time to getting in shape as you would like, there are still plenty of ways you can keep your body active while going about your normal routine.

Try to use stairways instead of elevators whenever possible.

If you can walk there or take a bike, let your body burn energy instead of taking your car.

If you are driving, instead of wasting time looking for a good spot, park further away and walk a couple extra blocks.

Turn your housework into a fitness challenge: Sweep and mop using as much energy as possible, exaggerating your arm movements. Fold your clothes and do a couple sets of squats at the same time. Whatever you're doing try and incorporate in some sort of routine that gets your muscles working and heart rate moving.

And if you absolutely can't miss your favorite show on TV, try doing some sit-ups and push-ups while you watch or during commercials.
