What if this was a favor that you remembered by keeping score? I think that many of you would agree that it is a very tempting proposition. The honest truth is that thinking in terms of keeping score will essentially lead you to disappointment in many aspects of your life.

The world is filled with people whose attitude is nothing more than “I owe you and you owe me.” You have most likely known someone in your life that lives on favors. It isn’t hard for you to figure out that someone is tallying up a total. The best way to live life is to recognize that success is gained by giving without keeping score. Keeping score will ultimately lead to failure in life. (more…)

What I mean is to focus on school and strive to go to college. Take that degree and cash it into a good paying job. After that, you will be ready to settle down. The odds are against you if you marry at a young age. The divorce rate is over 80% for couples married between ages 18 and 22.

Relationships are complicated and will ruin your life before then. Don’t fool yourself into thinking that your 15 year old girlfriend will last until you are 24, the age when you are finally able to get married. Guess what? Things can change in 9 years time. You can’t expect people to stay the same. Also, the years between 18 and 24 are the peak times for us to find out more about ourselves.

Ok, so on with the show. Here are my top 10 tips for couples looking to remain on cloud 9. (more…)

But what he didn’t tell you was that life is more like school. Do you remember the days in school when all you took were tests and exams every few weeks? It didn’t matter what grade or level you were at (kindergarten, elementary, junior high, high school, college, grad school), there was always some sort of test. Just when you thought that you were done taking tests when you finished school, you were introduced to the school of hard knocks called life. The best feature about life’s tests is that there are no wrong answers until you keep repeating them. (more…)
