How To Wash Clothes.

It is very important to learn how to clean and take care of your clothing.  They will last much longer if you take the time and clean them properly.

How To Get Rid Of The Unproductive Areas In Your Life

Learning how to pinpoint the unproductive areas in your life isn't easy. To do it, you have to take an honest assessment of things that may be time wasters.  When you work at home you have to think about all the time that you are not doing work on your business.  Sometimes people think that they can spend a lot of time on the computer or talk on the phone and if this is keeping your from your goal for the day, this is wasting time.

If you are going to the Mall or other places where you could bring your Laptop or Ipad to do some work, and you don't, you are wasting time.

There are a time and place for enjoyment and relaxation because it is important but sometimes we are even putting off housework when we could put laundry in the washing machine and dryer; it doesn't take much time to do this.

Productivity is the quality of being productive or having the power to produce. This means that you can write yourself a to-do list where you can give yourself something productive to do every day.  It doesn't have to be something hard or tedious, it could be just one thing.  You will find that this will get easier every day and you will reach more of your goals.

Only The Poor Shop At Thrift Stores?

                                      Only The Poor Shop At Thrift Stores?

Someone told me that "only poor people shop at thrift stores"  I looked at her like she was crazy because there are many wealthy people who shop at thrift stores.  Rich people stay rich by saving and cutting corners in other areas.  Of course, they can afford to buy new but why should they?  People have this idea that being well-dressed in expensive clothing will make them appear rich but what people can really see is, you don't have any savings and you are running up your credit cards for the latest fashions.

Many people who dress in expensive clothing are really broke. A friend of mines asked me whether or not I feel funny wearing clothing that someone else wore and I told her that when you shop at the mall you are trying on clothes people have tried it on and also clothes that were worn and returned.  Even if you shop online, you will be buying clothes that probably was returned for one reason or another.

I understand that everybody has their own preference and I get it but, by the same token, don't chastise me for my frugal choices.  Some people get upset when they find out that wealthy people are shopping the thrift stores but I feel that there are enough clothes and goods to go around to anyone who wants to buy them.  It is a great way to recycle and support your community programs.

I say "don't knock it till you try it"  People are often amazed at what I find at thrift stores and if you take a look on YouTube you will see many fabulous, well dressed Diva's flaunting their thrift shop finds.  You can even find many designer handbags there and sometimes new items are there too.

You can shop at these stores and save money and plan a beautiful vacation for you and your family.
Be smart in everything that you do.

So, You Are Scared Of Doctors And Medicine?

I am aware that there are many people who are leery about going to see a Doctor and follow their medical advice.  Some of these folks don't want to listen to their doctor because they are religious and they feel like they don't have faith in God if they use the medicine the doctor prescribes.  They also feel like they can pray and be healed and I believe that is possible but have they really really thought this out thoroughly?

Most of the time you can cause damage to your body by not listening to your doctor because you are delaying treatment.  I know a lot of people who takes herbs and other natural remedies and you have to realize that you are not a doctor.  You are in fact, practicing without a license in my opinion.

If you have sufficient medical insurance, you should be seen regularly by a doctor and follow his advice and if you do not trust it, get a second opinion.

What people don't realize is, God, blessed that doctors hands to do the work that he is ordered to do.  He is a healer and seeing a doctor is mentioned in the Bible and God picked that doctor from birth to go to school and learn everything in order to practice medicine.  There are only special people who can be a doctor, not everyone can do this sort of work.  He or she is well paid because they spend many years in school and also have a lot of school loans to pay back.

Don't let any archaic and ignorant religious dogma cause you to make choices that are not mentally sound because it can be a choice between life or death.

You May Be In A Religious Cult! (Commentary)

                                          You May Be In A Religious Cult!

Hello, Ladies and Gentlemen:  I know this is a sensitive subject but the truth shall make you free.  Some of you know, I grew up in the Pentecostal religion and I have a lot of respect for it.  In my lifetime I have seen coverage about religious cults especially, regarding Jim Jones who was a maniacal leader of a religious cult in Jonestown, Guyana.  He conducted a mass murder-suicide of 918 of the members of his cult in 1978.

It is so easy to get caught up in a cult and at one time a person who I was acquainted with almost drew me into this lifestyle but I am suspicious by nature and listened to my intuition regarding this.  A lot of people are hungry for God and these unscrupulous people prey on the church patrons meek and forgiving nature.  I have seen so many Reverends and Bishops preach about living right and salvation but they are not living right themselves.  No one is perfect but they require perfection in you and me.

There are a lot of signs to look out for and they are not easy to miss.  Below, I will list some of the signs.

Signs to look out for.

1. The religious leader is very bossy and controlling.  Making certain demands on your money and your time.
2. There are many cliques in the church and the head of these cliques are being worshiped like they are God.  They will exclude you until you do any and everything that they want.
3. They hold church all throughout the week to get all of your time and money.
4. Ask small children for money or have them out begging people for money to support the church.
5. Ask to see you at weird hours to take advantage of you mentally and sometimes sexually.
6. Take up numerous offerings during service.
7. The church members are living in poverty while the leader lives a prosperous lifestyle.
8. They tell you not to watch television or listen to certain kinds of music.
9. Sometimes they will tell you that you can only wear white because they want to control everything about you.
10. They will speak against other churches and tell you that you cannot visit other churches because they have the devil in them.
11. Tell you who to date and who to marry.
12. The leader has an entourage everywhere they go.
13. If you do not belong to their church (cult)  they will be very rude and mean to you.
14. Church members are losing their homes and everything else because they are giving the church all their money.
15. I have even heard of church leaders asking the women in the church to sell their bodies to get money to give to them.
16. Tell you to fast for many days and hours (excessively) till you are almost passing out, to find favor with God.
17. Ask to see your bank statement to see how much money you have in your bank.
18. Tell you to leave your husband or your wife because they don't go to their church.
19. They make it clear that if you leave their church, you will go to Hell.
20. Sometimes they will publicly scold you or even beat you.

*I want you to know that this is a long list but there are so many more signs.  If you visit a church and see people in there acting very weird, it is time to leave!

There are a lot of good churches out there, so I am not talking about those churches in this post but I urge you to always keep your eyes open.
