12 Tips On Staying Inspired
It’s hard to be motivated at work and come up with creative ideas
when it seems you’re routinely doing the same things day in and day out.
But there are still different ways to stay inspired even when working
in the same place and for the same job everyday.
By staying inspired, you‘re not only more productive, you’re also
happier and more enthusiastic about the work you do. Hence, you become
more interested to explore more creative avenues and experiment on new
techniques. In the end, you actually embody what they say about “loving your job so you’ll never have to work a day in your life.”

Kids Got Fears? 3 Tips To Help Your Children
Lights out! It’s one of your favorite times of the day. The peace, the quiet…and then you hear the tiny voice chirping, “I’m scared!” It’s nothing new—over the years you’ve checked for monsters under the bed, dinosaurs in the closet, aliens outside the window and a giant ostrich that supposedly visits your child’s room at night. Even your best detective skills have never turned up anything more than a couple dust bunnies or a missing sock. But that doesn’t convince little Kingsley.
Fears aren’t limited to nighttime, though—many kids are afraid of everything from swimming pools (what if there’s a shark?!?) to thunderstorms (what if the lightening gets me?!?) to spiders (can you blame him?). Some fears may be more legitimate than others, but all are very real to your child, whether they’re two or twelve.
