It was rough to say the least. That is, until I found some solid recommendations for making school and getting things done easier. So, instead of making you scrounge around for the same resources, here is a handy list to get you started. Here are the 17 best lifehacks for your college semester: Do you have any good lifehacks for college goers? If so, drop them down in the comments....

One thing is for sure: money is an echo of value. Those who bring great products, services, businesses, and ideas into the world are rewarded (at least somewhere along the way) with financial gain. Some of these people even become billionaires. Now, it’s not to say money is everything (it’s not), but having financial freedom certainly makes life more flexible and filled with opportunity. For all the hubbub surrounding success, most of the attention is often swallowed up with the aesthetics of materialism....

Well, let me introduce you to the power pressure cooker, aka the game changer. The power pressure cooker makes the impossible possible. You can create a healthy, balanced meal in under an hour from start to finish....

You Make Sure Everything is Correct I learned within 10 minutes at my first job at Burger King that I would never make a good drive-thru “pusher.” I was just too slow! I knew how upset people got when their order was incorrect, and I think I spent 3 precious minutes bobbing my head up and down between the food in the carry-out bag and the overhead order screen. Management quickly sent me back to front cashier....

It’s likely now your team all have a very different view of what their “new normal” looks and feels like, collectively and individually. Hybrid working, changing personal motivations, and constantly changing business strategies have made some previous leadership approaches to teamwork redundant. Listening and displaying emotional intelligence are skills all leaders will need now and into the future, but teams and individuals are after different things. Want to create a new normal that your team can thrive in?...

‘Bit stressed out at the moment’ ‘Not too bad, really tired though’ ‘Feeling a bit spaced out today’ ‘Not with it today’ ‘Can’t seem it concentrate’ ‘I’m knackered’ Sound familiar? So often when I ask how someone is, I get these sort of responses. Often the main reason for this is the high level of stress hormones (adrenalin and cortisol) in our bodies. It’s a big problem because it’s stopping us from fully enjoying our lives....

We like these stories because they effortlessly connect us with characters and circumstances that we dream up in our own minds. We have to do some of the legwork, but that makes the impact significantly deeper. There are plenty of books that make you cry and that you can really sink your teeth into, but you surely want some of the best. Here are 20 books that will have you crying (and sometimes laughing) in no time....

For teaching me to stop attributing value to unimportant things, and start trusting my instincts. Before reading Jobs’ speech, I was working a job I hated because it was really the only thing I ever tried. It was what I knew. Jobs says “You’ve got to find what you love.” His speech helped me realize that I was wasting my life living someone else’s dream. If I settled for someone else’s dream, I’d grow old and die without ever seeking my own....

So why not experiment at home? As you go through this list, you’ll find some ‘different’ flavors. I wanted to make a list of the most amazing recipes out there. And to add to that, I also wanted more healthy options. A lot of these recipes are for baked donuts, instead of fried, which makes it better on the calories. Also, a few are gluten free or vegan, and even made with vegetables!...

Recently I have found that the practice of meditation has set into motion a drastic shift in my perception of self. I’ve been realizing how much joy is to be had in the present moment and how little my desires actually need to determine my state of mind. That being said, I often have days where I get caught in the perpetual mind trap of questioning who I am and what my place in this world is....

1. You have an authority problem. Creative types don’t always get along well with management because they would rather march to the beat of their own drum. 2. You have a hard time relating with people. Most people have a strong desire to fit in, something that you don’t understand. Conformity is gross. 3. You like to solve problems. While most people are running and hiding from problems, you purposely seek them because you love nothing more than a fresh new challenge....

1. Take a walk through the park Find a nice park around you and just take a stroll. As cliche as it sounds, it might just add a spring to your step. Bring yourself back to the simplicity of life by walking through a non-commercialized zone. Soak in the greenery and fill your lungs with fresh air. 2. Set a measurable goal for time of silence This is a bit crazy…but we really do have to set apart time for silence....

“Don’t cry because it’s over, smile because it happened.” ― Dr. Seuss Memories will forever live in your heart, no matter how brief the experience might have been, so be thankful that you can reminisce at any time you choose. “Happiness is not something ready made. It comes from your own actions.” ― Dalai Lama Complaining is a fool’s errand, because you can’t expect your dreams to come true if you’re not willing to pursue them relentlessly....
