Perfection, the ultimate goal. We all want it. We chase it. And we’re disappointed when we don’t get there. But hasn’t life taught us that nothing in life can be perfect? It can be good, really good, but never perfect. Don’t we appreciate the summer heat so much more after a long hard winter? Don’t the daylight hours make us nostalgic of the cool calm night? Why then do we believe we can keep searching for the perfect partner? Life is fluid, the only constant we can count on is change and yet we stick to this image in our head of what our ideal partner will look or be like. We form lists in our head of what the perfect person will say and do to give us a hint that they are "the one". He’ll be kind, a good listener, ambitious, and laugh at all your jokes. She’ll be beautiful, never complain, cook, and let you hang with your friends. What is the appropriate scale by which to measure your significant other? If love is about kindness, acceptance, and trust how can that be measured by some sort of checklist? If we are looking for how well someone matches up to our expectations that would lead us to look out for and take note of the positives vs. negatives rather than accepting the person as a whole. It will have you comparing this person to your past or the haunting ghost of your expectations. And don’t we all just want to be enough? Positive thinking is a mental and emotional attitude that focuses on the bright side of life and expects positive results. A positive person anticipates happiness, health and success, and believes he or she can overcome any obstacle and difficulty. Positive thinking is not a concept that everyone believes and follows. Some, consider it as nonsense, and scoff at people who follow it. However, there is a growing number of people, who accept positive thinking as a fact, and believe in its effectiveness. It seems that this subject is gaining popularity, as evidenced by the many books, lectures and courses about it. To use it in your life, you need more than just to be aware of its existence. You need to adopt the attitude of positive thinking in everything you do. There are two ways to measure your health and fitness: body mass index (BMI) and body fat percentage. Though many people talk about them interchangeably, BMI and body fat percentage should be used for different stages in your fitness journey. With an understanding of how each is used, you'll be able to track your fitness progress with ease and clarity. Simplify with BMI BMI stands for body mass index. The two factors used to determine your BMI are your height and weight. Doctors often use BMI as simple and easy way to measure if a person is healthy, underweight or overweight. In recent years, coconut water has become a very trendy beverage. It is tasty, refreshing and also happens to be very good for you. It is loaded with several important nutrients, including minerals that most people don't get enough of. Here are 8 health benefits of coconut water. 1. Good source of several nutrients Coconuts grow on large palm trees known scientifically as Cocos nucifera. Despite the name, the coconut is a fruit rather than a nut. Coconut water is the juice found in the center of a young, green coconut. It helps nourish the fruit. As the coconut matures, some of the juice remains in liquid form, while the rest ripens into the solid white flesh known as coconut meat (1). Coconut water is produced naturally in the fruit and contains 94% water and very little fat. Even though I'd love to have chefs on the podcast all the time, I really can't because I'd fall back to my fat ways. The owner of "Best Chefs" catering company and head chef for the show "Cooking With Chris," Miami native Chris Valdes, makes your mouth water with his delectable food and unique fusion of Latin and French cuisine. He was kind enough to make me my first ever strawberry shortcake, and I can say when I was finished, I almost ate the damn spoon! If you're hungry this might not be the episode to listen to on an empty stomach. So grab some grub and expect an erotic description of one of our most basic human needs!
