A study has shown that people who get less than 8 hours sleep a night are much more likely to be overweight. Giving you time to rest means the mind can process the events for the day and physically rejuvenate, meaning you will lose weight.<br /><br /><strong>Eat to lose</strong><br />Many people want to consume as much as they want while fulfilling their hunger while dropping their calorie intake. It’s very simple; all you have to do is choose foods with fewer calories per gram than the standard. Try having fruit, they contain a low amount of calories per gram and are also very good for you.<br /><br /><strong>Before and After Pics</strong><br />This is more of a motivational thing than anything else. If you take before pics and post them somewhere and see the response and then show the after pics, people may be amazed and hey, even you should be proud with your new image. This tactic could be the motivation you need.<br /><br /><strong>Walk the Walk and … Burn the fat</strong><br />Knowing how much you walk is firstly a good thing. You should look at getting a <a href="http://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B000RXWVVQ?ie=UTF8&tag=thesu-21&linkCode=as2&camp=1634&creative=6738&creativeASIN=B000RXWVVQ">Omron Walking Style II Pedometer</a><img src="http://www.assoc-amazon.co.uk/e/ir?t=thesu-21&l=as2&o=2&a=B000RXWVVQ" width="1" height="1" border="0" alt="" style="border:none !important; margin:0px !important;" /><br />. These things will help you keep track of your daily activities. Try and do extra things like walk the dog or walk to your shop instead of taking the car. All these things will add up.<br /><br /><strong>Set Goals</strong><br />Look at what you want your ideal weight to be and don’t stop. Make sure you break it down into weekly tasks like lose 2 pounds. Make it realistic though and make the goals feel very personal, as though you’re the only one going for it. At the end of the week write a review on how you did and what you could have done better for your weight loss. You will thank me later.<br /><br /><strong>Have a Treat Day</strong><br />There is no point in having goals to lose weight if you don’t enjoy the process. Have a so called ‘Treat Day’ at the end of every week to show that you are being rewarded for you efforts. In this day maybe have a cake for dessert but don’t overdo it, we don’t want to diminish your efforts.TeDWooDhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14032338180338238623noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6698105419110417679.post-18643744087917340792010-02-02T05:06:00.000-08:002010-02-02T05:07:53.851-08:00Toppling Bowel Cancer Tips<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:justify">Bowel cancer also known as colon cancer or colorectal cancer is cancer, it consists of cancer growth in the appendix, colon and rectum. It is the cause of 655,000 deaths worldwide; it’s a very common form of cancer and is the third highest cancer related deaths in the west world. Don’t fret though there are ways to prevent it from happening by using these tips.</p> <p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:justify"><b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal">Look at family history<o:p></o:p></b></p> <p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:justify">It’s wise to find out whether any of your family has it as them having it will greatly increase your chances of getting it. Even having any form of cancer in your family may put you at greater risk, you would be best telling your doctor about it.</p> <p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:justify"><b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal">Quit Smoking and Drinking<o:p></o:p></b></p> <p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:justify"><span style="mso-spacerun:yes"> </span>These two are probably the worst contributors to many health related illnesses. Studies show that people who heavily drink and smoke often are much more prone to getting bowel cancer. Try and avoid the beers and spirits as they will do the most damage.</p> <p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:justify"><b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal">Watch Your Weight<o:p></o:p></b></p> <p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:justify">Its known overweight men are more likely to get bowel cancer than overweight women, as well as certain body types being more prone.

This is good because the longer you have waste in your colon; the more time toxic materials have to go into your tissue. Also research has shown exercise to reduce your risk by 40% and also reduce the risk of other factors.</p> <p class="MsoNormal" style="background:white"><b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal">Over 50 Risk<o:p></o:p></b></p> <p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:justify">Over 90% of all people diagnosed with colon cancer at the age of 50 with the average being 64. This means as you get older you need to be more aware of the issue, the best way to prevent it early on is to get a screening, with many over 60’s getting a free one.</p>TeDWooDhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14032338180338238623noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6698105419110417679.post-80838290071540257332010-01-23T07:58:00.000-08:002010-01-23T08:06:39.835-08:0010 Body Odour Facts<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjnLzYgjBxNfsyJcb-hQuOX9RcBBdkhv9gYfsbvvEECR783mzCR3rOB5jquq4sfyeI3p1uphxu36peLjnfMJUoYC827GvJ3-k_YWe_kqn98FAzDcEoQpGvcCU6W9lRC9tMMHaZO35TmH0A/s1600-h/Armpit+Sweat.jpg"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5429966942673396850" style="FLOAT: right; MARGIN: 0px 0px 10px 10px; WIDTH: 130px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 195px" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjnLzYgjBxNfsyJcb-hQuOX9RcBBdkhv9gYfsbvvEECR783mzCR3rOB5jquq4sfyeI3p1uphxu36peLjnfMJUoYC827GvJ3-k_YWe_kqn98FAzDcEoQpGvcCU6W9lRC9tMMHaZO35TmH0A/s320/Armpit+Sweat.jpg" border="0" /></a><br /><div>Body odour is a vital function of the body and helped use survive during the caveman days. Here are 10 facts on body odour:<br /><strong>1. Men’s Body Odour is a Turn-on for Women.</strong><br />Body Odour has been found by researchers to contain a compound that causes emotional and physiological changes in women. The chemical called androstadienone is a male chemical released in sweat. It is also released after a run where it’s released in post run perspiration. The chemical spikes her arousal and releases a hormone which stimulates ovulation. The underarm odour also improves her mood, increases her cortisol and will increase sexual arousal.<br /><strong>2. Sweat doesn’t smell</strong><br />The body odour you produce doesn’t directly come from sweat as sweat is odourless. There are two types of sweat your body produces these are eccrine sweat and apocrine sweat. The eccrine sweat is the clear sweat that consists mostly of water and is used to regulate body temperature. The apocrine sweat is produced from the onset of puberty, it’s produced in the glands and is much thicker and is located in the groin area and underarms. The sweat is just a good environment for bacteria on the skin to thrive and duplicate, it doesn’t actually produce an odour.<br /><strong>3. Body odour can indicate a Health Problem</strong><br />People have their own individual body odour and it’s possible to tell if there is something wrong with you by that smell. Its know that if you have a fruity body odour it may indicate you have diabetes and if you have a bleachy smell it can be related to a kidney or liver disease.<br /><strong>4. Less Body Odour for Asians</strong><br />East Asian people have smaller apocrine glands and less hair follicle where the sweat is collected. It’s more of a problem for European and African people.<br /><strong>5. Your Body Odour is Unique</strong><br />Body Odour for people is linked to their genes which is different for each and every person. Even if you eat lots of strong spicy foods it won’t matter you will still be able to trace your specific odour.<br /><strong>6. Children don’t produce Body Odour</strong><br />The apocrine gland only comes into use when children enter puberty around 9-14 and this is the type of sweat that gives off the odour. When the child enters puberty the androgen hormone comes into use and actives the sweat glands that make the odour.<br /><strong>7. Women Can Sense Body Odour Easier</strong><br />It’s known that women can sense body odour easier and they are more sensitive to the quality and difference in smell. Women can recognise a body odour even if it’s masked by antiperspirant. They have such a good smell because of its evolutionary importance, one of them being that they can tell who their babies are by their smell.<br /><strong>8. Men and Womens Odour Smell Differently</strong><br />Mens sweat contains high levels of fatty acid which gives off the smell of cheese when mixed with the bacteria from under the arm. For women their sweat contains higher levels of sulphur, and when mixed with the bacteria from sweat creates thiol that has the smell of an onion.<br /><strong>9. Humans are Chosen Sexually by their Odour</strong><br />Body odour is a significantly important factor for humans to choose a mate as it signals your sexual attraction. This is because we are attracted to people with different immune systems to our own, meaning that their off spring will have a better chance of survival due to the diverse immune system.<br /><strong>10. Body Odour Hints Your Diet</strong><br />It’s easy to trace foods that are spicy as they consist of compounds that will remain in sweat. Foods like garlic, onion, curry and cumin are some common ones. The body odour would only be produced if you ate large amounts of these foods; they can sometimes stay in the system for longer than 24 hours.</div>TeDWooDhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14032338180338238623noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6698105419110417679.post-89802034379933615222010-01-13T10:14:00.000-08:002010-01-13T10:24:04.642-08:00Simple Tips to Healthily Boost Testosterone Levels<div>Testosterone is a steroid hormone produced in the testes by males and ovaries in women; it’s responsible for the development for sexual secondary characteristics. There are many benefits of having higher testosterone levels.<br /><strong>- Increased Muscle Mass and Strength<br />- Improved Sex Drive and Sexual Endurance<br />- Decreased Body Fat Levels<br />- Improved Mood<br />- Lower Levels of ‘Bad’ Cholesterol Levels</strong> <img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5426291810657834306" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 170px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 170px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgvQ6LZ1WINg9M2PPuZDSeRKxdIi2olDom9SCjq2nYepnDAPCVdFhzsXEtrtO4RCFy7Z2D7I5KL0xQ5a8uPs3e56vTFu0hC2_XZcvsZ1txR9Tib71fufE08mzyeKj-BjAzJickqv83G0vY/s320/Muscular+Man.jpg" border="0" /><br />Below are some simple steps to see the benefits:<br />. Make Sure You get enough sleep at night. Not enough sleep leads to increased cortisol levels which lower testosterone levels and bring about negative effects.<br />. Compound exercises are extremely productive in increasing testosterone levels. These are the very simple exercises such as Squats, Dead lifts, Chin ups, military presses and bench presses. These types of exercises will put your body under the largest amount of stress and uses some of the largest muscles groups, thereby telling the body to increase testosterone production.<br />. Push your body to the limit if you really want to see gains in testosterone. The more stress you can put on your muscles the more your body is going to respond to producing testosterone.<br />. Train the big parts of your body especially your legs and thighs. Training areas like the thighs and legs can actually stimulate growth in your arms, chest and back because of the amount of testosterone the body produces from training these areas.<br />. Increase your consumption of foods with mono saturated fats and essentially fatty acids (EFA). Foods such as Peanuts, fish, avocados and healthy oils can be the extra boost you need to successfully boost levels of testosterone.<br />. Reduce your intake on Alcohol and stop the binge drinking. Research has shown that Alcohol can have a remarkable effect on your testosterone levels. This is because the Alcohol is broken down in the testes which means it cuts off testosterone production.<br />. Avoid the Soy foods if possible. Soy is known to raise the levels of estrogens in your body (A female hormone) which will reduce testosterone levels.<br />. When your mum said eat your broccoli she was beings serious! Eating cruciferous vegetables has shown to dramatically reduce estrogens levels hence increasing testosterone levels.<br />.Increasing your sexual activity causes the body produce oxytocin which increases feel good chemicals called endorphins. This is a feel good chemical that also raises testosterone levels.<br />. Keep a check of your stress levels. Having elevated levels of stress causes your body to produce cortisol an extremely catabolic hormone which seriously affects testosterone levels and overall happiness. The best way to help you with this is to, exercise often and get enough sleep, which both help testosterone levels considerably.</div>TeDWooDhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14032338180338238623noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6698105419110417679.post-79136185255674902112010-01-09T12:03:00.000-08:002010-01-09T12:08:00.851-08:00What is the worst thing that ages skin…?

Ahead of sun exposure, sugar is the worst offender of ageing skin, simply due to its effects on the chemical insulin. Insulin is called for use when the body realises that it has too much sugar and initiates its storage. The first form of storage is Glycogen storage in the liver and muscles, using it for later if necessary (flight or fight response).</p> <p class="MsoNormal"><span style="mso-spacerun:yes"> </span>The reason sugar makes your skin age is because it attaches itself to proteins in the collagen, this causes the collagen to fit together and become stiff and inflexible leading to wrinkling skin. Many scientists have also stated that it leaves the skin even further to exposure from the sun. So watch your intake especially if your out in the sun, your skin won’t thank you for it.</p> <p class="MsoNormal"><b style="mso-bidi-font-weight:normal">What is the biggest offender then?</b><br />Well it’s simply sugar in its liquid form; yes you guess it all that Orange Juice and Pepsi have been doing you no good. Recently a report came out that the average American diet consists 33% of sugar! So 1/3 of Americans gets no nutritional benefits, while ageing their skin.</p> <p class="MsoNormal"><b style="mso-bidi-font-weight:normal">What you can do to deter the effects!<o:p></o:p></b></p> <p class="MsoNormal">Cinnamon<b style="mso-bidi-font-weight:normal"> – </b>research has shown cinnamon has beneficial effects when it comes to sugar. It can reduce blood sugar levels while also lowering blood sugar levels. 20 days after will even see you with useful effects from the cinnamon.</p> <p class="MsoNormal">Omega 3 Oils – It can improve cellular circulation by making the membrane more fluid, which increases receptor sensitivity, which means insulin can work more efficiently.</p> <p class="MsoNormal">Exercise – Regular activity of resistance training has been shown to be better than aerobic training in bringing down insulin levels and increasing insulin sensitivity, which means, it can break down the sugar better and make your skin healthier.</p> <p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p> <p class="MsoNormal">Go to <a href="http://thesuccessfulmale.blogspot.com/2009/12/fighting-workout.html">Previous Post.</a></p>TeDWooDhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14032338180338238623noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6698105419110417679.post-61364743956073882582009-12-30T06:41:00.000-08:002009-12-30T07:00:53.647-08:00A Fighting Workout<div><div>Here are 4 Workout tips used by martial arts fighters notably the UFC.<br /><strong>Bar Bell Push</strong><br />Get a barbell that is 80% of your on rep max and lie on a bench.

It’s true that scientific research has found that people who are most positive recover from surgery faster and suffer less pain when they are ill. This can be true for many situations and roles of life. Try these tips to give yourself a positive outlook on life.<br /><strong>1. Know you are Successful</strong><br />When you have good feelings about yourself, don’t let negative thoughts come across and ruin it. Try and embrace all you can and believe that you are successful at what you do and what you plan to do. Everyone is successful at something in one way or another, just have belief in yourself.<br /><strong>2. Look at the Solutions, Not Problems</strong><br />When you have done something wrong or badly don’t look for excuses, these will cause you to make more mistakes as you continually blame it on outlying events or circumstances. Instead look at how you can solve this and really use your imagination; you’ll be surprised at what you can think of.<br /><strong>3. Go ahead reward yourself</strong><br />Completing even a small task will give you positive energy; every great idea starts with one small step. Experiencing results builds trust in yourself and will give you a further positive outlook on life. Every time you do a task reward yourself with a chocolate or anything that motivates you, this may well be a reason to carry on.<br /><strong>4. Intentionally Speak Positively</strong><br /> Try and remove any negative thinking you have about events in the past and present and move towards a more constructional point of view. Look at what you have learnt from the event and try and correct it. For example losing a client may seem quite bad at first but it will free up time to potentially find a bigger one and you could be more motivated.<br /><strong>5. Change Where you are to Change What You DO.</strong><br />People get accustomed to similar places and so develop similar habits associated with that environment. Try to move to a new place even if it’s just another room, like a study room or maybe even the local coffee shop. It will spark new ideas and bring about a new creativity and outlook on your work and challenges. It will help you think more clearly and remove any negativity associated with your old working spot.<br /><br /> Return to <a href="http://thesuccessfulmale.blogspot.com/">Home Page</a>.<br /><br /><div></div>TeDWooDhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14032338180338238623noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6698105419110417679.post-37615755598781944892009-12-24T07:36:00.000-08:002009-12-24T07:44:29.739-08:0010 Reasons Why You Should Eat a Banana<p align="center"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgX_7oAlKrA8AgoFW60BN6IBynEfoFNql5Ggk886jopSrE-0qQOJgEyrjILK5hDFbpLSKp542KFCCygLnOyEWFa9OKYDrXKuOgYfd6U7XkIv4mRf7ILxPy-3O9g20F_62c_axWG-qnEYMQ/s1600-h/Fit+Girl+with+Banana.jpg"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5418827549186108274" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 148px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 161px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgX_7oAlKrA8AgoFW60BN6IBynEfoFNql5Ggk886jopSrE-0qQOJgEyrjILK5hDFbpLSKp542KFCCygLnOyEWFa9OKYDrXKuOgYfd6U7XkIv4mRf7ILxPy-3O9g20F_62c_axWG-qnEYMQ/s320/Fit+Girl+with+Banana.jpg" border="0" /></a></p> It has been known for many a time that bananas are good for your health, and are a fantastic snack. Here are some information and tips that will hopefully remind you how important eating fruit but in this case a banana is.<br /><br /><strong>1. Gives you an Energy Boost</strong><br />The combination of slow energy releasing carbohydrates such as glucose, fructose and sucrose, not forgetting fibre, makes the banana ideal for an immediate and slightly prolonged source of energy. Have one 30 minutes before a workout or even at breakfast to give you energy at the start of the day.<br /><br /><br /><strong>2. Put You in a Better Mood.</strong><br /> Bananas contain tryptophan, an amino acid (Protein) that the body uses to convert to serotonin. Serotonin is a hormone that is responsible for boosting your mood and making you feel happier. People who suffer from depression have low serotonin levels, so a simple snack like this can help.<br /><br /><strong>3. Reducing High Blood Pressure</strong><br /> Bananas are brilliant for people with high blood pressure since they contain a lot of potassium and hardly any salt, therefore having a perfect ratio to combat high blood pressure. Since this has been heavily proven, the US food and drug administration has allowed the banana industry to make official claims about the fruits abilities to lower high blood pressure.<br /><br /><br /><strong>4. Giving You Stress Relief</strong><br /> Potassium in the banana is used to normalise the heartbeat and naturally regulate the body’s water balance. When you are stressed mentally or physically, the body uses the stores of potassium and depletes it from the body. This is bad for you since it’s the third most abundant mineral in the body. Bananas are an easy way to replenish these supplies rather than medication.<br /><br /><br /><strong>5. Helps you quit Smoking</strong><br /> If you are looking for a fruit that helps you quit smoking, consider the banana. They contain the vitamins B6 and B12 which also contains magnesium: These substances help the body recover from nicotine withdrawal, a good alternative to nicotine patches.<br /><br /><strong>6. Keeping Healthy Bones</strong><br />Bananas are a remarkably rich source of fructooligosaccharide, a compound that nourishes friendly bacteria in the colon. Thanks to this helpful bacteria is produces enzymes that increase our digestive systems ability to protect us from unhealthy infections and bacteria. When the compound is absorbed it increases the number of these enzymes and their functionality, which helps the body absorb calcium,<br /><br /><br /><strong>7. Protecting Your Eyesight</strong><br /> According to the research published in the Archives of Ophthalmology intake of three pieces of fruit daily can reduce the risk of ARMD (Age related macular degeneration) the primary cause of vision loss in older adults by upto 36%. That’s compared to people who eat 1.5 portions daily.<br /><br /><br /><strong>8. Restoring Nutrients from Diarrhea</strong><br />Thanks to bananas containing a lot of fibre, it helps the body restore normal bowel activity and function. During Diarrhea the body is deprived of important electrolytes and fluids (One of the majors being Potassium). Many deaths are caused a year due to Diarrhea an estimated 1.1 Million from the ages 5 and up.<br /><br /><br /><strong>9. Helps you Avoid Gaining Weight</strong><br /> Researches have found that the most obese people are the ones that work in high pressure jobs and use food as a comforter. To avoid this stress be sure to eat snacks like bananas high in carbohydrates and potassium, it will also stop your craving temporarily.<br /><br /><strong>10. Morning After Cure</strong><br /> A fast way to do it would be to make a banana milkshake with traces of honey. Bananas simulate the cells on the internal stomach lining to produce a thicker mucus which protects the body from acids. With honey or a sugar of your choice it will keep blood sugar levels up and stop you from feeling sick.

It will show you care and are willing to negotiate and understand why they are reacting this way. Firstly you must </span></span></span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="FONT-WEIGHT: normal">“</span><span class="apple-style-span"><span style="color:black;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="FONT-WEIGHT: normal">seek to understand before being understood” as this is vital to the relation to the person and also to your argument. Since many people use emotion rather than logic in arguments, it’s best not to ask questions just to try and settle the emotions and bring them to your point of view. </span><span style="mso-spacerun: yes"></span><o:p></o:p></span></span></p><p></p><p></p></b><p></p><p class="MsoNormal"><span class="apple-style-span"><b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal"><span style="color:black;"><o:p></o:p></span></b></span></p><p class="MsoNormal"><span class="apple-style-span"><b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal"><span style="color:black;">2. Value their opinion<o:p></o:p></span></b></span></p><p class="MsoNormal"><span class="apple-style-span"><span style="color:black;">Wherever possible try and listen and talk with empathy especially in a personal dispute. One technique to use is to reiterate what they say and communicate that you understand what they are saying “but my point is…” this will leave them more open to think about your point since you are with theirs.<o:p></o:p></span></span></p><p class="MsoNormal"><span class="apple-style-span"><b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal"><span style="color:black;"><o:p></o:p></span></b></span></p><p class="MsoNormal"><span class="apple-style-span"><b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal"><span style="color:black;">3. Try and Relate <o:p></o:p></span></b></span></p><p class="MsoNormal"><span class="apple-style-span"><span style="color:black;">There will always be something you can agree on no matter what. Finding common ground is a good way to sway the other person to your side, as they realise you aren’t droning on about what you want. For example I and a friend had an argument over the irony that rage against the machine got number one and beat a major corporation when they used Facebook (The biggest social site) and didn’t understand the hype. I agreed with him and said I could see the irony and that me myself is not a rage fan but there should be hype because people made a stand and stopped x factor getting number one, for the 5th year in a row.<o:p></o:p></span></span></p><p class="MsoNormal"><span class="apple-style-span"><b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal"><span style="color:black;"><o:p></o:p></span></b></span></p><p class="MsoNormal"><span class="apple-style-span"><b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal"><span style="color:black;">4. Think Win/Win not Win/Lose<o:p></o:p></span></b></span></p><p class="MsoNormal"><span class="apple-style-span"><span style="color:black;">When you gruellingly get your point across even if you were right, you have upset the other person.

The facts being you have destroyed your trust bank and respect from that person in a matter of minutes. A good negotiation is where both parties walk away happily and have each others interests in tact but most importantly the relationship.<o:p></o:p></span></span></p><p class="MsoNormal"><span class="apple-style-span"><span style="color:black;"><o:p></o:p></span></span></p><p class="MsoNormal"><span class="apple-style-span"><b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal"><span style="color:black;">5. Final Thing to Avoid…<o:p></o:p></span></b></span></p><p class="MsoNormal"><span class="apple-style-span"><span style="color:black;">After the dispute don’t gloat or do anything that makes it seem as you ‘Won’. It will make your task 10x harder the next time one opinion is raised against another. The only real win in a dispute as I mentioned earlier is one where both people come to an agreement and are happy, this is win/win.</span></span></p><p class="MsoNormal">Return to <a href="http://thesuccessfulmale.blogspot.com/">Home Page.</a> <span style="color:black;"><o:p></o:p></span></p>TeDWooDhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14032338180338238623noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6698105419110417679.post-69932735949358089432009-12-05T04:09:00.000-08:002009-12-24T07:46:13.820-08:00Tips on How to End a Relationship.<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgnEl9yCweF7FxxAkVGxsgenLvxSf6ropEgf8RymveyXDvhCTc68KxaKa38zeimVPA-en3jOV76kMbdT6zyHniEbO2Pa_Ir8bPQQSZF-Dgv6ot586QeYtOJacf92SRzYlh5xN_CyTuQ5uI/s1600-h/Couple+walking+apart.jpg"><blockquote></blockquote><blockquote></blockquote><blockquote></blockquote><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5411725943605460386" style="FLOAT: left; MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; WIDTH: 114px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 170px" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgnEl9yCweF7FxxAkVGxsgenLvxSf6ropEgf8RymveyXDvhCTc68KxaKa38zeimVPA-en3jOV76kMbdT6zyHniEbO2Pa_Ir8bPQQSZF-Dgv6ot586QeYtOJacf92SRzYlh5xN_CyTuQ5uI/s320/Couple+walking+apart.jpg" border="0" /></a> <p class="MsoNormal"><br /></p><p class="MsoNormal"><br /></p><p class="MsoNormal"></p><p class="MsoNormal"></p><p class="MsoNormal">You have tried so hard to keep it going but as heart-breaking it is, you know it won’t work. Now there is no time to waste and you need to get to the point. This may be especially hard for some people to do, when you have loved them and had big dreams with them. Just try and take some courage to follow these steps.</p><p class="MsoNormal"><b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal">Be 100% Certain and Don’t go Back.<?xml:namespace prefix = o /><o:p></o:p></b></p><p class="MsoNormal">When ending a serious relationship it should only even be considered when you are 100% confident it’s what you want. One of the biggest and hardest mistakes to overcome is leaving someone then giving out the wrong messages. <span style="mso-spacerun: yes"></span>Getting back together almost never works as there was a good reason for it, and you may have forgotten its influence on your decision. It will lead to an on and off relationship which is unfair and cruel on the both of you.</p><p class="MsoNormal"><b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal">Where Should it be Done?<o:p></o:p></b></p><p class="MsoNormal">The best possible places to end a relationship are where <u>you</u> can leave. An ideal place would be her place or a quiet spot at the park. This is especially important if tears and anger are going to be involved. This is so all of your attention is focused on her and there are no distractions, including the radio, tv and any sounds etc or even women. </p><p class="MsoNormal"><b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal">What you should say?<o:p></o:p></b></p><p class="MsoNormal">When you are in a quiet place at hers or the park etc, don’t start with small talk to postpone what is eventually going to happen. Stay calm and get straight to the point, while being clear and concise. You should then expect her to be shocked, surprised, emotional and maybe even aggressive. Don’t expect logical answers especially when this is an emotional conversation and should be taken very softly.</p><p class="MsoNormal"><b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal">What you must avoid?<o:p></o:p></b></p><p class="MsoNormal">The number one thing you must beware of, is listing bad things about her and why she ruined the relationship. Even if its true forget it, it will turn into a nasty argument where both of you will be biting at each others necks. Another one is to not mention anyone else and tell the truth no matter what. Don’t take some rubbish out of movies and start saying “Its not you it’s me” that wont work. A much more effective method at soothing the tense atmosphere is to blame it on outside factors and never use self blame or personal reasons. Try to avoid contact with her at all costs this will spark a lot of confusion and unnecessary rethinking.</p><p class="MsoNormal">As a final note you should try and visualise the best you can how you want the meeting to go. You should want it to be fast, clear and for her to understand the situation calmly. Best of Luck.</p><p></p><p>Return to <a href="http://thesuccessfulmale.blogspot.com/">Home Page.</a> </p>TeDWooDhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14032338180338238623noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6698105419110417679.post-90235925609938672312009-11-28T05:56:00.000-08:002010-02-15T08:18:16.616-08:00Stop Blood Pressure Highs and Lows<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhuibXi6RwramarNyuPCD3bcWXRIBLh8qTrl8PjcpwI6tPpGIm6CPhARdZstAMKBIC4q8fz4l3NNn7WrM8DE_6JrqQQlroxccNQGV8rpf18b6D41fUU1YdFwmqIhyapMfv3B8V99EJ2_hs/s1600/x14875829.jpg"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5409163803159970018" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 169px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 170px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhuibXi6RwramarNyuPCD3bcWXRIBLh8qTrl8PjcpwI6tPpGIm6CPhARdZstAMKBIC4q8fz4l3NNn7WrM8DE_6JrqQQlroxccNQGV8rpf18b6D41fUU1YdFwmqIhyapMfv3B8V99EJ2_hs/s320/x14875829.jpg" border="0" /></a><br /><p class="MsoNormal">Blood pressure depends on two main factors. </p><p class="MsoNormal">One – How forcefully the blood is pumped around your body and heart.</p><p class="MsoNormal">Two – How narrowed or relaxed your arteries are.</p><p class="MsoNormal">The worst case scenario is that you have narrow arteries with a strong blood flow and it can lead to hypertension.

When potassium is low, the body counters this by holding onto sodium because they are very familiar chemically and this will lead to high blood pressure. When potassium levels are high it removes sodium, therefore reducing blood pressure. Banana on toast will do the trick.</p><p class="MsoNormal"><b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal">Pop Eyes Spinach<o:p></o:p></b></p><p class="MsoNormal">This annual plant that is grown in <st1:place st="on">Asia</st1:place> is absolutely loaded in magnesium and folate that are very helpful in lowering blood pressure.</p><p class="MsoNormal"><b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal">Slim Skimmed Milk<o:p></o:p></b></p><p class="MsoNormal">Skimmed milk is high in vitamin D and calcium, which can help blood pressure levels by around 4-11 %.

The fact is that it actually tells you what she is looking for in a male. If she has a picture showing her with friends in bars, clubs going out etc it demonstrates she wants to prove she has an interesting and healthy social life. The wisest form of conversation then would be to ask her about hobbies, her friends and what she has planned on the weekend.</span></p><p class="MsoNormal"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="FONT-WEIGHT: normal">On the other hand if she has a really lustrous, clearly posed shot then watch what you wear as you can tell she takes a lot of time to look good and will expect you to as well. If her profile picture is meant to be funny with her pulling a funny face or doing something stupid then she will look for someone with a good personality and a sense of humour.</span></p><p class="MsoNormal">Read her…Status Updates<span class="Apple-style-span" style="FONT-WEIGHT: normal"><o:p></o:p></span></p><p class="MsoNormal"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="FONT-WEIGHT: normal">A status that updates where she has been, when and with whom in ever minor detail then choose where to meet very carefully. Picking a peculiar location for your date will give her the excitement she desires even if it’s so she can tell everyone about it later.</span></p><p class="MsoNormal">Spy on…Personal Information<span class="Apple-style-span" style="FONT-WEIGHT: normal"><o:p></o:p></span></p><p class="MsoNormal"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="FONT-WEIGHT: normal">Always check how much information she is willing to give out about herself. If she has hardly any at all she wants to keep things to herself and will be guarded. So don’t ask personal questions as it will only make her withdraw further and will create an uncomfortable atmosphere. With these girls they may ask questions to relieve their own anxiety, but don’t fall into the trap of not asking your own, this will make her assume you are uninterested.</span></p><p class="MsoNormal">Avoid…Text Language <span class="Apple-style-span" style="FONT-WEIGHT: normal"><o:p></o:p></span></p><p class="MsoNormal"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="FONT-WEIGHT: normal">When you use abbreviations and poor grammar in your conversation you are basically saying you are too busy or too lazy to type properly. Using proper grammar is vital as it gives you the conscious impression you are being courteous and polite. Even if she doesn’t still make sure you do, it will show you care.</span></p><p class="MsoNormal">Friends in… Photos<span class="Apple-style-span" style="FONT-WEIGHT: normal"><o:p></o:p></span></p><p class="MsoNormal"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="FONT-WEIGHT: normal">A photo album that shows her with attractive friends shows she is confident and secure about her looks and will know that. Beware though, if she has un-tagged herself in bad photos or ones with better looking females it may mean she has a less secure body image. This will indicate she won’t appreciate you looking at pretty women in bars or even having a conversation as it will make her feel threatened.</span></p></b><p>Return to <a href="http://thesuccessfulmale.blogspot.com/">Home Page.</a> </p>TeDWooDhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14032338180338238623noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6698105419110417679.post-77842128264424842922009-11-08T15:34:00.001-08:002009-12-24T07:47:00.972-08:00Stress Proof Your Body<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi7WHhjFN7PUUwg4f0M9wtXCaZq81KgC8E_tWLZHAi9lpYWpB9E2GUiGM12phRns331iYMYAeEZCXHra38OeubO72J1GpQIMhjhjLQ0liAW8_fh_JsrfEIScOQ9_-PcdwLK_gbL8TNvTDo/s1600-h/Stressed+Business+Man.jpg"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5401880872496952258" style="FLOAT: left; MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; WIDTH: 113px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 170px" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi7WHhjFN7PUUwg4f0M9wtXCaZq81KgC8E_tWLZHAi9lpYWpB9E2GUiGM12phRns331iYMYAeEZCXHra38OeubO72J1GpQIMhjhjLQ0liAW8_fh_JsrfEIScOQ9_-PcdwLK_gbL8TNvTDo/s320/Stressed+Business+Man.jpg" border="0" /></a><br /><div style="TEXT-ALIGN: center">Stress as how we experience it, is not nice and is a known trigger for depression and it can also affect your physical health. So it’s very important to find out the cause and to minimise the effect they have.</div><p class="MsoNormal"><b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal">Have That Little Extra<?xml:namespace prefix = o /><o:p></o:p></b></p><p class="MsoNormal">Studies have found that restricting your calorie intake can significantly increase cortisol levels.

Research has been put in and it has found that taking a gram a day extra helped testosterone to cortisol ratio by 20% helping muscle building and recovery. Some brilliant sources of Vitamin C are oranges, kiwis, peppers, Brussels sprouts and sweet potatoes.</p><p class="MsoNormal"><b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal">Having a To Do List For The Week<o:p></o:p></b></p><p class="MsoNormal">Stress causes loss of concentration and lack of concentration will unfortunately lead to people forgetting things even important ones at that. It has been a very profound and successful business and management aide as jobs in management are usually very stressful. Just sit down for 5 minutes and think about what the most important activities are that need to be done for the week. Then close your eyes almost meditating and visualise yourself doing those important activities, this will give you confidence and belief as you have already seen yourself do it. Planning your week is much better on your stress levels as it will lead to less disappointment and you can have enough time to change accordingly plus you will subconsciously allocate the time to each day.</p><p class="MsoNormal"><b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal">Sleep The Stress Away<o:p></o:p></b></p><p class="MsoNormal">Early sleep at consistent times is one of the most vital keys to recovering from stress. Make sure you sleep in a blacked out room to stop you waking up early in a mood. Exercising in the morning will also help a lot in removing stress; it will give a sense of inner peace and calamity and raise your energy levels for the rest of the day. Some foods to consider eating more often are trout, yoghurt, salmon, eggs and chicken as these are all rich in Vitamin B12 which helps re-set the sleep-regulating circadian rhythm.</p><p class="MsoNormal">Return to <a href="http://thesuccessfulmale.blogspot.com/">Home Page.</a> </p>TeDWooDhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14032338180338238623noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6698105419110417679.post-4950630483750719882009-11-04T06:53:00.000-08:002009-12-24T07:47:15.369-08:00Get to Know Your Body LanguageAs we all should know body language plays a big part in attracting potential mates and it has been with us even from the primitive days. So how can you stand above the crowd and get the females to notice you.<br /><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjlzxWhbs4LIiKsP2SxXzc9wHaBa4rmn5C88El_jSKwhXt_Ddkl46SyqErRjuJLHtD_PipoxGKwRXRf7kRJduVoozhh4O3NXB7jPPiqMHQDm86K6tjLvkxNGy5W9xKcMUhiLzyTdubLwv0/s1600-h/Confident+Posture.jpg"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5400265143909823298" style="FLOAT: left; MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; WIDTH: 100px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 140px" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjlzxWhbs4LIiKsP2SxXzc9wHaBa4rmn5C88El_jSKwhXt_Ddkl46SyqErRjuJLHtD_PipoxGKwRXRf7kRJduVoozhh4O3NXB7jPPiqMHQDm86K6tjLvkxNGy5W9xKcMUhiLzyTdubLwv0/s320/Confident+Posture.jpg" border="0" /></a><br /><strong>1. Stand Confidently</strong><br />Make sure your feet are wider apart than normal when you walk as it will improve your balance and will stop you moving around as much. This is because you don’t have to shift weight from foot to foot. Doing this will make you look more confident and assured instead of nervous and unsure of yourself. Making sure you seem confident and have a straight posture is good especially when around women. It will make them feel confident around you as subconsciously you are saying you can look after them and you have no problems.<br /><strong>2. 60% Eye Contact <a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjZDViElN9hPB1hStRuXdsTC8Wb3rZgk4EKzBS57wzFkwCDJbcV3o8TLgH2vcEi3uNut_6eHxD01UKGsugldxzV7Qcr8zMjKWvMY5NRtV0fYDm-Nz8CWit-wZu4gONsCHCiKqxGgjasQww/s1600-h/Eye+contact.jpg"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5400266087496326546" style="FLOAT: right; MARGIN: 0px 0px 10px 10px; WIDTH: 170px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 113px" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjZDViElN9hPB1hStRuXdsTC8Wb3rZgk4EKzBS57wzFkwCDJbcV3o8TLgH2vcEi3uNut_6eHxD01UKGsugldxzV7Qcr8zMjKWvMY5NRtV0fYDm-Nz8CWit-wZu4gONsCHCiKqxGgjasQww/s320/Eye+contact.jpg" border="0" /></a><br /></strong>Research has shown that looking into a woman’s eyes 60% of the time can improve her attraction to you. Apparently it produces a hormone called phenylethylamine, which is the pleasure chemical primarily responsible for love and attraction. A good way to tell if you are making enough eye contact is to try and remember what her eye colour is after the encounter. When eye contact is given over a period of time it will make her feel more comfortable around you and more familiar as it is also a signal for trust. Making this connection is vital but don’t overdo it or she will feel uneasy because it will look as though you are trying to intimidate her.<br />Tilt your head to the right when she’s talking. German scientists discovered that it will make you look more caring and genuinely interested in what she is saying, which she will find very at<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhTmfTcYC_Rq5Sqt6ZQnxFq4Z-I4K-YqzjsINx9AEBMxqE8Yuda6pRdOuQLu2wA7y2wbD_VSAlDcnLyPlWObcR0I6rB6ILpSWxpcs-1JgKOFnJi_LMlA__5hmpv0xMtEyTb2I1iaXMnyCw/s1600-h/Raised+Eyebrows.jpg"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5400266698627288770" style="FLOAT: left; MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; WIDTH: 104px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 146px" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhTmfTcYC_Rq5Sqt6ZQnxFq4Z-I4K-YqzjsINx9AEBMxqE8Yuda6pRdOuQLu2wA7y2wbD_VSAlDcnLyPlWObcR0I6rB6ILpSWxpcs-1JgKOFnJi_LMlA__5hmpv0xMtEyTb2I1iaXMnyCw/s320/Raised+Eyebrows.jpg" border="0" /></a>tractive.<br /><strong>3.</strong> <strong>Watch your Facial Expressions<br /></strong>Being aware of facial gestures in a flirtatious conversation with the opposite sex<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj_byDyg3GhajReFl5JNqUXmiePrWP9cjeF_3Fnm7LZCzSGkpFsCdgBJajmfxylhp653Qrj5o6NeBYbktbbBeikLLpdoPCXM9JXBjhcNHOTLzvbttYHVsJUDHUk5hLzYhIr1JSYeuQD4_U/s1600-h/Lean+towards.jpg"></a> is important as gestures and facial expressions show invitation and interest. A common flirtatious facial expression is the eyebrow raise. This expression is obvious for attraction as it draws attention to the male just like a peacock will flaunt its feathers by looking bigger. The shocked face look is not what we are after just a small raise to show interest.<br />Lip licking will clearly convey a message to the woman that you are interested. It’s a very sexy and overt way of flirting If not overdone. It will attract attention to your lips which will make her subconsciously think about kissing you. We are just talking about a slow swipe along your lips with the tip of your tongue, just enough to grant some attention.<br /><strong>4. Lean Towards Her</strong> <a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi6BTMVkJcWAo8phz_2RxxFZer4b2uE9sksENMjZuZFdb40dsd2F5Ewm5E8870DVJVrMtI9AXoaA9WMsU66hXPcMfAoIOZKk5jCH_01qBC69eSWJfWwI91OFSuWlv0kgUIe8T9hDY3JfR8/s1600-h/Woman+Leaning+over.jpg"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5400268075263192370" style="FLOAT: right; MARGIN: 0px 0px 10px 10px; WIDTH: 158px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 141px" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi6BTMVkJcWAo8phz_2RxxFZer4b2uE9sksENMjZuZFdb40dsd2F5Ewm5E8870DVJVrMtI9AXoaA9WMsU66hXPcMfAoIOZKk5jCH_01qBC69eSWJfWwI91OFSuWlv0kgUIe8T9hDY3JfR8/s320/Woman+Leaning+over.jpg" border="0" /></a><br />This gesture will show interest, liking and acceptance. The most common form is leaning forward if she was sitting at opposite end of a table i.e. in a restaurant or café. It shows that you feel comfortable and want to share space with them or be close to them. This shows that you’re attracted to her and you are ok with sharing space. On the other hand if you are leaning away it shows you are not bothered by what she is saying and show a sense of arrogance which she won’t appreciate.<br /><strong>5. Finally… Smile :)</strong><br />It’s Possible to alter your attraction to the opposite sex simply by gazing and smiling<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjWGVxA-DTDgFRdGGAHsUu1ip520mAbN3UAqsQnfciru4-lHFcoKBRS8tnDV5oFU0ZVqKYDVLRXONRswJE4B-g9EYXD-pw39Toexhf7x2_Zq6nqwYfsZWtX8cM2vXqdriLl8Kv6JlLrMGE/s1600-h/Smiling+man.jpg"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5400269081113270962" style="FLOAT: left; MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; WIDTH: 131px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 137px" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjWGVxA-DTDgFRdGGAHsUu1ip520mAbN3UAqsQnfciru4-lHFcoKBRS8tnDV5oFU0ZVqKYDVLRXONRswJE4B-g9EYXD-pw39Toexhf7x2_Zq6nqwYfsZWtX8cM2vXqdriLl8Kv6JlLrMGE/s320/Smiling+man.jpg" border="0" /></a> at them. A study including hundreds of volunteers showed that averting your eyes even a fraction to the right can decrease attraction. One of the tests included a woman looking directly into the camera while another only looking marginally to the left or right. The difference was so small it wasn’t immediately obvious to the viewer. When men were asked to rate attractiveness some results were eight fold to the woman looking directly into the camera.<br />People prefer faces that seem to “Like” them, proving that physical attraction is not just about beauty. So smile as it will make people like you more and you will seem more attractive.<br />Never fake a smile though as many people can suss it out by your facial expressions.<br />This is because only certain muscles are used when producing a genuine smile and only your mouth is used for a fake, so keep it genuine at all times, try to think of something funny or a good moment beforehand.<br /><br />Return to <a href="http://thesuccessfulmale.blogspot.com/">Home Page.</a>TeDWooDhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14032338180338238623noreply@blogger.com0
