5 Tips For The Lazy
bestoutdoormarket.com

Do you find yourself trying to juggle all your work, school work and free time but end up sleeping and not doing any of it? Do you ever boss someone around to get you food, drinks or whatever from another room because you do not want to get up? Do you find yourself waiting till the last second to do that 20-page essay that is due today? If you answered yes to any of these questions I, a former member of the lazy team, have some advice for you!

1. Think: is it worth it?

My friend, I know how much you don't want to get out of bed but think: is it really worth sleeping till noon and not being productive at all? Is it?! The answer is no. Sleeping is not going to move you forward in life it i just going to move you back. Those five hours that you wasted of your day could have been spent moving towards your dream. Instead you wasted your entire afternoon sleeping an extra five hours.

2. Get a planner.

Having a planner is a visual way for you to see how much you can mess up if you ignore all of your work just to sleep and be lazy. This way you can divide the work so you don't have to spend all night writing that essay or sending out that important email.Think of it this way: if you get your work done now you will have an extra day to be lazy and free from the clutches of being an adult.

3. Find your passion.

Believe me, I've been in your shoes. I used to be very lazy with no motivation to wake up and change. However, now I am different. I found my passion, I found out what I want to do and sleeping will not get me to that goal! Figure out who you are and what you want to do and trust me it will feel much better the laying down all day watching TV and eating.

4. Find some friends.

Trust me this one will help a lot! Not only will your friends motivate you to get up and start your day, they can also help you accomplish more then you've ever imagined! Just make sure you all aren't lazy because then they just might motivate you to sleep.

5. Evaluate yourself.

Think about it, do you want to be known as the lazy one? You can be known as the one moving towards your dreams! So, instead of sleeping, lets get motivated and find your passion! It's the only thing in life that will truly make you happy.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
