11 Habits You Need to Stop Doing

Stop watching too much TV If you spend too much time watching TV, you are wasting your life away. I feel really strongly about this one. I don’t have cable, and while I do watch some shows on Netflix, it’s few and far between. I only watch TV after I really am relaxed and need a break. I’m also careful not to turn on the TV right when I get home. I find that if I do this, I’m sucked in. This is why I keep my reading list and focus on reading good books instead. So, start to pay attention to how much TV you’re watching. If you think it’s too much, cut back. Limit your TV intake to 30 minutes to 1 hour per day, if possible.

Don’t make assumptions about how they think or compare them to other people, since language like this tends to shut people down. Look for spiritual guidance. If you’re really having trouble getting your habit under control, you ...

How technology will soon be taking care of your healthcare

The New Year tends to come with some changes - new socio-cultural interactions, new ways of doing business or new adjustments in our lifestyles. Some changes tend to fall on the wayside as the year advances. But other changes tend to be more long-term, serving to redefine several aspects of our lives. You can be certain that there will be changes in healthcare delivery this year. As with other service-oriented industries, technology will be a key driver of healthcare delivery. The interplay between technology and health is already quite advanced, but will get even more accelerated as the year progresses. You will already be familiar with a multitude of tech gadgets that can monitor various aspects of your health, and even offer suggestions on specific health actions. Such gadgets will get more refined, eventually becoming indispensable in individual health monitoring. You should expect to see more interactions with machines rather than humans in healthcare facilities. You wi...
