You know, when I’ve told people about this method in the past, many misunderstood and thought that you could offer people just about anything for free and they’ll want to send you their glowing feedback.

That couldn’t be further from the truth.

You have to look at the feedback incentive as a product. A product people would actually pay for if it were for sale. That’s why I recommend you create something of your own instead of just giving people something they can find for free somewhere on the net. And keep in mind that I’m not talking about anything major.

Just a simple 5-10 page report.

That’s it.

The best incentive you can offer is a small report people can’t get anywhere else, especially since you aren’t charging them for it. All you’re asking for in exchange is a simple email with their feedback.

Now your child is growing older it is even more important that you provide a positive role model for your child. We are all a product of our upbringing and early environment. We are conditioned to respond to certain situations and stimuli.

In Victorian times, and in some societies in our modern world, children were expected “to be seen but not heard!” How could that possibly instill a sense of self worth into a child? They are so valuable to their parents, that the adult would prefer them to pretend they weren’t there! No wonder children brought up in this type of environment lack confidence and belief in themselves.

If as a child, all you hear is your parents moaning and complaining about how hard life is, how difficult EVERYONE else makes their job, how awful the boss is, it is easy to see how the child can become negative about the world in general.

Don’t let them hear you saying you can’t do x, y or z. Actions speak louder than words so if there is something you are afraid of doing, why not see can you beat that fear. Parents who approach everything in life with a “I can do that” attitude are much more likely to raise confident kids.

So try putting on a pair of rose tinted glasses especially around your kids. Make an effort to make positive statements and see the silver lining in all the dark clouds. Give your children the chance to be a positive, well rounded human being and you never know you may enjoy life a little better as well.

We live in a time pressed society where everyone is so busy working, paying bills and constantly trying to catch up on life. With the current economic downturn, more of us are stressed over the bills and our jobs. Children don’t understand that it is outside influences that are causing mum and dad to be snappy or hassled – they can very easily believe that they have done something wrong.

So try to take some time out and take your kids out to the park for some fun. Or play a board game with them. There is nothing like children’s laughter to melt away your problems or worries if only for a little while. And children don’t need expensive toys and games to be happy. They need love and attention from the people that matters most to them i.e. you.

You have finally found your school. You have found the perfect program to enroll in. You are about to start on your E Degree career. So, what are you waiting for?

The enrollment process for E Degree schools is not much unlike enrolling in another other type of school. You will first need to put in an application to that school. In some schools, especially those that are parts of traditional universities and colleges (even schools like Harvard and Standard offer E Degree programs.) The application process will take just a few minutes, sometimes done right online.

E Degree schools will then ensure that you are qualified to attend their school. If you are enrolling in a Master degree program, they want to insure that you have the undergraduate and Bachelor degree requirements as well. In some cases, you will need to insure that these credits can be moved from one school to the other.

Requesting Information

One thing that you will need to do is to request detailed information about the courses and the E Degree that you plan to earn. Since it is important for you to understand how the courses work, you will need to learn in detail about them. The good news is that you can find all of this information available to you right here on the web.

Most of the online E Degree schools will require you to either fill out an online request form or contact them to request it. They will then send you packages in the mail will all of the details that you are going to need. What’s more is that they will have a guidance counselor call you to begin talking to you about your needs, desires and goals.

If you think that you're going to feel a little foolish listening to apparently nothing, you can relax. If you did listen to the beats by themselves it would sound a little like a motorboat with its engine running underwater. Because that is perhaps not the most engaging sound to listen to, producers have created several different methods of masking that sound a little. Your ears may not be able to hear them but your brain can.

Binaural beats are added to tracks of music that you can listen to as your brain does its work. The type of music generally changes to match the chief reason you are listening. For instance if you want to listen to be come more relaxed, then the music is more relaxed. If it's because you want to sharpen your focus, then the music upon which the binaural beats are laid on top of is generally more upbeat and steady.

The music also gives your conscious mind something to focus on as it relaxes and rests while your subconscious mind takes over.

Not all tracks are set to music. Sometimes they are set to white noise, or to sounds of nature. Occasionally the binaural beats sounds can be heard faintly depending on the producer's decision.

As you need to hear the separate sounds going into each ear, it's not enough to simply put the track on your stereo and play it into a room. You need to have stereo headphones on so your brain can experience the sensation of having the do sine wave tones played in each ear. If you don't have stereo headphones, placing yourself between not too loud) stereo speakers is the next best thing.

Even if your ears can't hear them, your brain can. These tones talk to your brainwaves and help them either slow down or speed up, depending on what your purpose is.

HAVING now a fair knowledge of the end-game, we should be in a position to appreciate how the middle game should be conducted. We must throughout maintain a favourable pawn formation, in view of the end-game which might be forced on us by exchanges. On the other hand, as soon as we have gained an advantage sufficient to secure the victory in the end-game, we must ourselves, by the exchange of pieces, try to reduce the position to one of the typical elementary cases which we have discussed. Now it will invariably be found that beginners are unwilling to make these essential exchanges. This is explained by the attraction which combinations involving the action of many pieces have for them. They assume that exchanges, particularly of the Queens, make the games dull. Such ideas only prove that the beginner has not grasped the nature of chess, the essence of which is stern logic and uncompromising conclusions, and this demands the shortest and clearest way leading to a mate. To the strong player, able to play logically, logic will always be inseparable from beauty in chess.

To play logically means to subordinate all combinations to a leading plan of campaign, but there is difficulty in finding the latter. An unsound scheme, even if worked out to its logical conclusion, can of course be of no value. All the same it is better than no plan at all. And in time one gains by experience, and develops a sort of instinct for rejecting from the large number of possible operations all those which, properly countered, cannot bring any advantage.

Beside practical play, which is essential in order to gain this instinct, a methodical theoretical instruction is of inestimable value, and accelerates the development of the student's mind. Now the instruction I wish to give in the THEORY of chess will not take the form of an ANALYSIS, brought up right into the middle game, of the various openings, tested and found correct in master play. Such collections erroneously bear the title of "Theory of the Openings," and are, besides, quite useless at this stage, since they only embody the results of ANALYSIS.

It is first necessary to ascertain a few leading principles, which can be taught in a most simple manner, by the exercise of common sense, rather than by applying oneself to the study of long-winded analysis. The student will no longer need to discover time-worn maxims in the light of his own weary experience, and on the other hand, these principles will help him to understand analysis, and to keep clearly before his mind's eye the common and principal lines of play, of which he might easily lose sight in the labyrinth of suggested variations.

I propose to show the application of such principles to master play, and this will give us a further opportunity of deeper study, both of the rules set out in the first part for conducting the opening correctly, and of the end-game principles, which should be well considered.

I have made the pawn skeleton with its attendant grouping of pieces the main consideration in the study of the opening; now in the investigation of the problems of the middle game, I will start from the TRANSFORMATION which the pawn skeleton has to undergo in the course of further operations. In my opinion this is the best starting-point for the choice of effective manoeuvres of the different pieces.

If you are struggling to feel on top of things as you have an ongoing low mood, it can be very difficult to eat for health and happiness. All you are going to want to do is reach for a sugar fix, some endorphin loving chocolate or some comfort fries.

Fatigue can cause us also to eat foods that our bodies don’t love- no matter how much our brain and stomach tells us we really need it. Until we’re eating a good range of healthy food, we can’t really trust our brains and bodies to tell us what to eat. They have this huge cocktail of chemicals running around playing havoc with our cravings.

If you do suffer from depression, are chronically tired or think you are prone to SAD (Seasonal Affect Disorder, where you feel more depressed in winter) there are several things you can do.

It is more common for woman to struggle with the effects of these, though that may also be because men are less likely to report any incidence of depression.

If you are always tired, then you are more likely to eat instant foods that do little for your body. If you have large amounts of stress in your life, it can make you feel tired. Tiredness can lead to weight gain which in turn makes you more depressed once more.

In the winter months we can be even more susceptible to it. We need daylight, and more accurately sunlight to keep our vitamin D levels at a good level, and help us with our levels of hormones melatonin, and serotonin which help us feel good. When you don’t have enough of these in your body you’ll tend to feel down, tired, grump, and irritable. Becasues we don’t have enough serotonin we start to crave carbohydrates and buttery, creamy foods. It’s hard to drum up a craving for salads and fruit when our brains are wreaking havoc with our bodies during these phases.

However we need energy to get through life. Even if spending the day sleeping in bed may feel like bliss to you right now, it’s not going to turn your life around in any shape or form. We need to eat just as we need to breathe.
