» How I save money By Leo Babauta I think I’m a fairly frugal person. I haven’t always been this way, and it’s taken years of simplifying and cutting back on little things, one at a time. And while there are definitely many more things I can scrimp and save on, I’m proud of how far I’ve come already. Here’s how I save money: 1) I cut my own hair. 2) No Cable TV. 3) Became vegan. 4) Don’t use the gym. 5) Rarely go to the movies. 6) Quit smoking. 7) Don’t drink much. 8) Never go out. 9) Stay healthy. 10) Don’t go shopping. 11) Have only one car. 12) Bring my own lunch. 13) No magazine or newspaper subscriptions. 14) Rarely buy new clothes. 15) Never travel. 16) No more lattes. There are more little ways that I’ve learned to save, like getting my books at a used book store, cooking most of my meals (aside from the above-mentioned lunches), power-saving measures, no long distance calls. Estimated total savings: $20,445. Now, I’m not sure if most people spend the full amounts listed above, or if I ever did.

I’ve noticed that successful people have an unwavering belief in themselves.To others this belief may seem like foolish stubbornness but I think that belief in oneself is a crucial ingredient in the recipe of success.You have to know with every fiber of your body that you’re going to be successful. It doesn’t matter how long it takes, how many times you have to try or how many times you fail. With 100% belief that you’re going to be successful, it’s just a matter of time and persistence before you achieve the success that you know you’re going to get.Life has a tendency to throw some big and bad obstacles our way which can easily cause us to lose faith in pretty much everything we believe in. I say it’s okay to lose faith in many things, but never lose faith in yourself.

Source: Paul Bateman In the German context, a question is either an attempt to present one’s own view or an attack meant to question the authority of the speaker It seems to me”, says Clive Bloom, emeritus professor of English and American studies at Middlesex University, “that academics are the rudest people on earth.” Bloom’s first book, The Occult Experience and the New Criticism (1986), was greeted with a review claiming that it “mentions every orifice except the arsehole from whence [it] emerged”. And this, in Bloom’s cheerfully jaundiced view, is part of a wider sense of “resentment and defensiveness” resulting from the fact that most academics “don’t really produce anything that people want”. It is not difficult to turn up examples of academics being deliberately rude to each other, whether in print or in person, openly or anonymously. Can the same be said about really vicious reviews?
