Flirting with men is so fun and so simple. So why don't we do it? One man recently wrote me that it was true that flirting was a great way for women to attract men, but he was "yet to experience this from a woman, must be fun." Men LOVE it when women flirt with them! They love the fun aspect of it: the playful banter, the dance of eye contact, and the sheer joy of being surprised by the unexpected. Best of all, flirting is immensely flattering. It's an indication of interest in another person, even if that interest is not romantic in nature. The best flirts know how to make the other person feel special without expecting anything in return. If you are going to improve your flirting skills with men...

Thousands of years ago Buddha said: "Meditation brings wisdom; lack of mediation leaves ignorance." As mankind begins to grasp the unlimited power of the mind it becomes more clear that using it in a creative and genius-like manner is our natural evolution. William James, psychologist, author and founder of the first American psychology laboratory said: "There is a law in psychology that if you form a picture in your mind of what you would like to be, and you keep and hold that picture there for long enough, you will soon become exactly as you have been thinking." Mr. James was referencing what we today call creative visualization; the practice of seeking to affect the outer world by changing one...

Bill was once quoted as saying something along the lines of, "Microsoft has had lots of competitors over the years. It's a good thing we have museums to record those moments in history." Ouch. Not a good thing to think about if you were one of those competitors, that's for sure. But, you certainly don't need to be a competitor of Microsoft to feel the sting of business competition. With the quantity of chiropractors in practice today, and the quantity of new doctors coming into the profession every year, I'm sure you'd agree, it's a pretty darn crowded and competitive chiropractic marketplace out there. The number of shrinking incomes and struggling doctors, certainly confirms that. So, how do you...

Sometimes, what seems like the simplest technique can be the hardest to get right. Fill-in flash is commonly used when the subject is backlit and there's large exposure difference between the subject and the background. In order to expose an image evenly, a burst of flash can be used to balance things up, illuminating the subject against the brightly lit background. It's possible to use a pop-up flash for this technique, but you'll risk the dreaded 'red-eye' effect if you're shooting people, and the results can be quite harsh. Using a separate flashgun offers you several advantages. Firstly, it has a much larger and more controllable power output, which means that it can illuminate subjects that are...

The first professional theater company I designed for taught me one of the primary skills that made my career in the world of theatrical wardrobe and costuming the success it has been: Shortcuts. Learning that the outside appearance of a costume is much more important than the inside being steeped in perfection has allowed me to put the effort when building a costume into the actual, measurable effect that it should be for the audience. Before my first show, I was overly, and as I would soon learn, unnecessarily concerned about every little thread and seam no matter where it landed on the piece. But I quickly learned that the inside of a costume was nothing to be concerned about. There would be no...

If we remember this always, we shall never be attached to nature; we shall know that nature is a book in which we are to read, and that when we have gained the required knowledge, the book is of no more value to us. Instead of that, however, we are identifying ourselves with nature; we are thinking that the soul is for nature, that the spirit is for the flesh, and, as the common saying has it, we think that man "lives to eat" and not "eats to live". We are continually making this mistake; we are regarding nature as ourselves and are becoming attached to it; and as soon as this attachment comes, there is the deep impression on the soul, which binds us down and makes us work not from freedom but like...
