Gooogle Facts: 8 Things You Should Not Do Every Day

0
Read this a year ago and saw it in my drafts so posting it away in here. Gooogle Facts: 8 Things You Should Not Do Every Day: It's for your own good. Cut these things out of your day and you'll see gains in productivity--not to mention happiness.If you get decent value from making to-do lists, you'll get huge returns--in productivity, in improved relationships, and in your personal well-being--from adding these items to your not to-do list: Every day, make the commitment not to: 1. Check my phone while I'm talking to someone.You've done it. You've played the, "Is that your phone? Oh, it must be mine," game. You've tried the you-think-sly-but-actually-really-obvious downwards glance. You've...

Relying on God

0
I've had bad times and moments because of my frustrations. But I've learned to trust God and lift them all up to Him. I've learned to always ask for His guidance and believe in His purpose in me. One day I was too frustrated that I already cried to myself. Then I have very timely encountered this devotional and it greatly helped. I found myself crying to Him. Since then, I relied more on the Author of my story. Life became more bearable. He worked on and through my frustrations. Relying on God I believe every time we feel frustration, it means we've really stopped relying on God. That might sound like a bold statement to you, but think about it: God's given you and me His Holy Spirit...
