What Can Lead Us to Failure

Hi guys!! I know that not all of us here are successful, some may fail. They fail because they have made wrong decision in choices they take. Now, I am writing about examples of something that will lead us to failure which are laziness, having no spirit at all, and stubbornness.

First, laziness leads us to failure. You want the example? I will gladly give you one. So, I have a friend who is a lazy boy. He never studies although it is a test. Because of that, he always gets blue form every time there is a test. And you know what is the worst part? He failed the class twice. He repeated year 8 twice. That makes his parents ashamed.

Second, having no spirit at all will also make us fail. Why? Because by having no spirit at all, what are we going to do? It only makes us fail and later we also can suicide. The example is the beggar at the road. Beggars there only beg for money and hope that people will give them some money.  Actually, they can work because they are still healthy. But, because they have no spirit, they just ask for money, money, and money.

Third, we will fall if we are stubborn. We can’t keep on thinking that we are the smartest and the best because there are still many people who are better than us. I have a really stubborn friend. He doesn’t want to hear other comments about him. He thinks that he is the most correct person in this world. He said that we can’t judge others, but actually he is the one who loves to judge others. At the end of the year he is the only one who fail.

In conclusion, laziness, having no spirit at all, and stubbornness will lead us to failure. So, don’t do those things!

Some Productive Ways Students On Spending Their Leisure Time

I know that there are many students who can’t manage their time wisely included in this school.  Why?  Because they spend too much time on playing online games, bbm, playing twitter, and many others.  Because of that, I would like to write some productive ways on how students can spend their leisure time.  For me, those productive ways are pray and have time with GOD, read some books, and take lessons.

First, of course we should have time with GOD!  Students must pray or talk to GOD maybe about 5-10 minutes a day.  That makes GOD happy because He will know that you didn’t forget about all things that He has given to you.

In our free time, we also should use our time to read some books with a minimum of two books each week.  Why?  So that we can be broad minded, become smarter, and know more vocabularies.

Students also can take some lesson like music course, Math course, and many others.  We should keep our left and right brain balanced.  But remember!!  Don’t always study!  Spare some time for you to play or for refreshing, so that you won’t be stressed because of too many studying.  One more thing that I want to say is use your time wisely because we can’t reverse time!  And be careful because these days are evil!

In conclusion, some productive ways students on spending their leisure time are pray and have time with GOD, read some books, and take course/s.  Hope this will be useful for you guys!

WHY YOU SHOULD EAT CHOCOLATES??

Superfoods don't just come from your supermarket's produce aisle. In fact those chocolate candy bars next to the gummy bears now qualify. Study after study proves that dark chocolate—sweet, rich, and delicious—is good for more than curing a broken heart.

The secret behind its powerful punch is cacao, also the source of the sweet's distinct taste. Packed with healthy chemicals like flavonoids and theobromine, this little bean is a disease-killing bullet. The only problem? Cacao on its own is bitter, chalky, nasty stuff.

Enter milk, sugar, and butter—good for your taste buds, not always good for your health. Besides adding calories, these can dilute the benefits of cacao. So snack smart: Stick to healthy chocolate with at least 70 percent cacao (or cocoa, which is cacao in its roasted, ground form). As long as the content is that high, says Mary Engler, Ph.D., a professor of physiological nursing at the University of California at San Francisco, you can reap the benefits from eating only small amounts. Because of its high fat and sugar content, limit yourself to 7 ounces, or about four dark chocolate bars, a week.

What Makes a Person Successful??

I know that there are many successful people in this world. They can succeed because of many reasons. For me, in order to be successful, we should have a good relationship with GOD, think positively, and never give up.

We must have a good relationship with our beloved Father, Jesus Christ. How to have a good relationship with Him? By praying every day, but not only asking all the time. We should also give thanks to GOD for all things that He has given to us, for His blessings to our family, so He will be happy. We must pray continuously.

In order to be successful, we must always think positively. Although we know that we can’t do that, we still should have faith in GOD, because all things are from Him. Without GOD, we can’t do something. We also must be diligent if we want to be success. We should study every day, ask other if we don’t understand, and many other examples.

If we have failed, we must not directly give up! We must keep trying until we can because that’s where the spirit come. Each of us should have a big dream because dreaming is free, but don’t always dream. If you want to be success, WORK HARD! And HARDER! You must not only “NATO” which is mean “NO ACTION TALK ONLY.” Examples; We dream to be the best student and to gain the highest average among the others. We should study hard, so we can achieve it! But remember! Although we already succeed, we can’t be snobbish because GOD hate haughty people! And He will also destroy them!

In conclusion, to be successful, we should have a good relationship with our Father, Jesus Christ, always think positively, and never give up!

WHY DO WE YAWN??

Everybody yawns — from unborn babies to the oldest great-grandparent. Animals do it, too. But why, exactly, do people and animals yawn? No one knows for sure. But there are many theories (ideas) about why people yawn.

One is that when we are bored or tired, we just don't breathe as deeply as we usually do. As this theory goes, our bodies take in less oxygen because our breathing has slowed. Therefore, yawning helps us bring more oxygen into the blood and move more carbon dioxide out of the blood.

Yawning, then, would be an involuntary reflex (something we can't really control) to help us control our oxygen and carbon dioxide levels. Sounds good, but other studies have shown that breathing more oxygen does not decrease yawning. Likewise, breathing more carbon dioxide does not increase yawning. Hmmm. Now what?

Another theory is that yawning stretches the lungs and lung tissue. Stretching and yawning may be a way to flex muscles and joints, increase heart rate, and feel more awake.

Other people believe that yawning is a protective reflex to redistribute the oil-like substance called surfactant (say: sur-fak-tint) that helps keep lungs lubricated inside and keeps them from collapsing. So, if we didn't yawn, according to this theory, taking a deep breath would become harder and harder — and that would not be good!

But there is one idea about yawning that everyone knows to be true. It seems contagious. If you yawn in class, you'll probably notice a few other people will start yawning, too. Even thinking about yawning can get you yawning. How many times have you yawned while reading this article? We hope not many!

Legends says, when you can't sleep at night, it's because you're awake in someone else's dream~
