When we stop conforming to the crowd, when we are doing what we believe, when our actions are in line with our values, when we stop compromising, when we are being our truest self, that’s when we start creating our path to success. Be you. #Motivation

You came to this world with unique strengths. Don’t dwell on your weaknesses. Focus on what you excel at. Each soul excels at something. Clarify your strengths, what makes you come alive, what you do best. Build on it. That’s what creates momentum, & great success.
Beautiful Sunday
Blue, sunny. Trees blooming. Just summer.
“Inaction breeds doubt and fear. Action breeds confidence and courage. If you want to conquer fear, do not sit home and think about it. Go out and get busy.”✨ — Dale Carnegie
WHY is the thumb called the "big finger" if it is the shortest of all? The thumb is opposed to the others; such a position allows us to make varied and precise movements. Only humans are capable of grasping, holding, and masterfully manipulating both large and tiny implements, from a punching machine to a pin. Such diverse functions might be impossible if the thumb were longer or shorter than its actual size. Despite the thumb's seemingly small size - it appears to consist…
Use your creative energy to make a bright future. Don't use it on worries, bad people or on things you can't change.

“Striving for success without hard work is like trying to harvest where you haven't planted.” – David Bly Love this one.
WHY are foxes cunning? The fox is indeed quite a sly animal - when it comes to saving its life or getting its food, it can outsmart many predators. Foxes have a keen sense of smell and great eyesight, and they're smart and inquisitive. They know how to avoid poorly hidden traps, understand when a yard dog is leashed and when not. Foxes can tell hunters from unarmed humans and can go through yard scraps in broad daylight. But the fox is not as cunning as it seems. Curiosity…
WHY do insects buzz? In most cases, they have no specific organs for this; the buzzing, heard only during flight, comes simply from the fact that, while flying, insects flap their wings several hundred times per second. A wingbeat is an oscillating plate, and we know that any oscillating plate, sufficiently often, produces a tone of a certain pitch. Scientists have determined that a housefly, for example, makes 352 wing strokes per second, a bumblebee 220, a bee 440, and a…

WHY is barbecue called that? B-B-Q stands for the method of cooking meat and other foods over charcoal and open fire, a word that has long existed in many languages of the world in different variations. It is thought that, in Europe, it first appeared in Spanish: in the form "barbacoa", it is mentioned in a dictionary published in 1526. The word came into Spanish from the New World - the natives of the Caribbean called "barabicu" a carcass of sticks, which was placed over a…
WHY do we crave to move to the rhythm of music? We only know that this reaction to rhythmic music is innate, for it is inherent even in young children who have never seen a dance. Apparently, beating out the rhythm with his hand or foot, a person feels it more clearly, more accurately, captures the changes. This agrees with the famous hypothesis of the Austrian musicologist Richard Wallaschek, according to which the music itself was born as a means of coordinating the…
WHY can the color of the seas and oceans vary, even in areas close to each other? Pure water looks bluish, but organic and less often inorganic impurities can change the color of seawater. Many single-celled algae secrete substances whose molecules contain chromophores - groups of atoms that selectively absorb and scatter certain colors. Even small variations in water temperature and salinity due to currents, bottom topography, the presence of nutrients greatly affect the…

WHY do hamsters devour their cubs? Numerous mammals eat the placenta coming from the fetus as well as their stillborn cubs. Doing so is essential to keep the den clean and to avoid attracting predators to it. And the nursing mother thus receives additional nutrients. But sometimes the program fails, and the female eats the live cubs. It happens mostly due to anxiety, when unfamiliar or dangerous creatures, sudden sounds or smells appear.
WHY do cats often get "stuck" in a tree? A domestic cat's claws are bent so that they give it support when it moves up the tree trunk, but they can't hold it down when it goes down. And cats don't like to climb down backwards, as they can't see the way they're going. However, if a human doesn't come to their aid, cats will eventually get down from the tree with their tails forward. Some of them manage to overcome this psychological barrier and become skilled tree climbers.
WHY working more than 8 hours is harmful? It was found out that over-working is bad for your health. It is even more harmful than alcohol and nicotine. Calculations have shown that a person, who works 11 hours a day, has up to a 70 percent higher chance of getting a heart attack. Apart from heart disease, about 60 percent of those, who work overtime, are more likely to fall ill with acute respiratory infections and suffer various injuries. And the illnesses have nothing to…

WHY do dogs stick their heads out the car window when driving? The Internet is full of funny pictures of dogs sticking their heads out of car windows while driving: the wind blows their fur and their muzzles are full of bliss. Dogs clearly love doing this, but for what reason? It's all about smells. Dogs rely on their noses for everything, since their eyesight is not so good, but their sense of smell is amazing. Human olfactory membranes have 5 million receptors, or "smell…
WHY does a human only breathe through one nostril? Roughly every 4 hours, there is a change in the "lead" nostril. This phenomenon has a name: the nasal cycle. Namely, the two parts of the nose are able to change the resistance of the mucosa in response to the air flow passing through them. That's possible due to the special structure of the blood vessels in the nose. The cavernous body swells, blocking the passage of air, or, conversely, shrinks in size.
