Be Complet! Seja Completo!!!

By

“When we're incomplete, we're always searching for somebody to complete us. When, after a few years or a few months of a relationship, we find that we're still unfulfilled, we blame our partners and take up with somebody more promising. This can go on and on--series polygamy--until we admit that while a partner can add sweet dimensions to our lives, we, each of us, are responsible for our own fulfillment. Nobody else can provide it for us, and to believe otherwise is to delude ourselves dangerously and to program for eventual failure every relationship we enter.”

Saiba o que significa um prego 17 x 27.

By
Muito interessante pessoal, jamais imaginei como se media isso! abraços, Ivan Saiba o que significa um prego 17 x 27. A nomenclatura dos pregos é algo bastante desconhecido da maioria das pessoas. Isso ocorre porque há muitos padrões no mercado. Existe uma equivalência aproximada entre elas, mas as usuais estão em Polegadas Inglesas x BWG, JP x LPP e ainda o padrão métrico oficial, mm x mm. Entenda o que significam estas siglas: Polegadas Inglesas: multiplique o número correspondente por 25,4 para ter o comprimento em mm. BWG (Birmingham Wire Gauge) e JP (Jauge de Paris): são tabelas próprias que indicam o diâmetro do prego. LPP (Linhas Por Polegadas Portuguesas): multiplique o número correspondente por 2,3 para ter o comprimento em mm. No Brasil usamos mais o seguinte formato: JP x LPP Onde: JP é o diâmetro, em JDP (Jauge de Paris) LPP é o comprimento, em Linhas de Polegada Portuguesa. 1 JDP = ver tabela abaixo 1 Linha de Polegada Portuguesa: 2,30 mm Conversao de Medi...

By

6 de abril de 2017   Mr. Flow Flow Your Career (Se preferir ler em Português, clique aqui:  http://bit.ly/2jX7rGY ) Blissipline is not something you can easily find on the internet as it’s not a formal word. But, Google it, and Urban Dictionary will gladly explain you the meaning of this not-yet-famous term, and give you the first hints of how important it may be in your life. According to ColleteKenney on urbandicionary.com, Blissipline is “…the combination of Bliss and Discipline. The term is used in the context of being in the now (bliss) as you strive towards achieving your goals (which takes discipline). With blissipline you no longer pursue your goals with grim determination or use fear to motivate you. Instead, there is a joyous energy behind everything you do. You are in the now, and the steps towards your goal are a blissful journey rather than a means to an end.” So, putting it in simple words: Blissipline happens when you dedicate yourself to achieve a goal, bu...

Mandala or Mandorla?

Mandala or Mandorla? "Happily...we have a solution. This is the mandorla... It is far too valuable a concept to have lost." Owning Your Own Shadow -- by R. Johnson "Everyone knows what a  mandala  is,  even though  mandala  is a Sanskrit idea borrowed from India and Tibet. A mandala is a holy circle or bounded place that is a representation of wholeness..... the Tibetan  tanka  [for example], a picture generally of the Buddha in his many attributes... Mandalas are devices that remind us of our unity with god and all living things." Mandalas are found in places as diverse as a Tibetan monastery, an Indian ashram or a Christian cathedral. In the christian version, the mandala is most often represented as a rose flowering. It appears in Gothic architecture as a  rose window ,  frequently representing a healing symbol in christian mythology. While mandalas are perhaps more familiar to many  persons, the  mandorla  is an important s...

As a mix of Ostentation (money) Latin Rap together with tons of sex the music is super catchy. However, understanding the Sl...

  Do we Need $75,000 a Year to Be Happy? A new study by Princeton University researchers puts a figure on happiness: $75,000 a year By Belinda Luscombe   Monday, Sept. 06, 2010 Kelly Blair for Time Happiness caps at $75K People say money doesn't buy happiness. Except, according to a new study from Princeton University's Woodrow Wilson School, it sort of does — up to about $75,000 a year. The lower a person's annual income falls below that benchmark, the unhappier he or she feels. But no matter how much more than $75,000 people make, they don't report any greater degree of happiness. Before employers rush to hold — or raise — everyone's salary to $75,000, the study points out that there are actually two types of happiness. There's your changeable, day-to-day mood: whether you're stressed or blue or feeling emotionally sound. Then there's the deeper satisfaction you feel about the way your life is going — the kind of thing Tony Robbins  tries to teach you ...
