Within a 24-hour period, the normal frequency for urination is 6-8 times.[1] Some factors may affect the normal frequency of urination, such as drinking a lot of fluids, the type of fluids you consume, and some medications that you might be taking.[2] Other than these factors, an increase in urination could be a sign of a health problem, such as a bladder infection, prostate problems, a heart condition, leg swelling, or a urinary tract infection....

Are you taking it all in? That is, are you sure that you’re noticing everything that matters to you, or could matter to you if only you’d noticed it? Could you do more with your life – or just enjoy it more – if you were more actively engaged in the world around you, in your day-to-day activities, your conversations, and the beauty of your everyday surroundings? Most importantly, do you approach the world as if it were full of value?...

1. Limit your sun exposure I always remember an ex-colleague of mine who spent several months a year in Sardinia on holidays. She used to boast about the wonderful beaches and the crystalline water but she was paying a heavy price. She had a wonderful tan but as the years passed, her skin became more wrinkled and leathery and was starting to show age spots. I noticed the opposite with a friend of mine who always stayed out of the sun....

We don’t keep our head in the game. For a range of reasons, somewhere along the way we lose it mentally and emotionally. And when the discipline, the self-control and the can-do attitude go out the window, so does the new and improved body. Pity. We know that what happens below the shoulders is driven by what happens above them (our physiology is a by-product of our psychology), so for most of us, mastering our mind is the key to mastering our body....

To that effect, here is my list of the Top Ten Ways to Kill a Community. These same concepts can be applied to your business or organization if you have the foresight to view it as a community which must learn to thrive in a global market. In the development of this piece Leon Ho raised an excellent question. “How could readers prevent them (the ten killers) from happening?” As you see, Leon has a true talent for getting straight to the essence of an issue....

Now, because I’ve worked service jobs before and was very, very good at it, I also tend to be very discriminating about the servers I get at restaurants. If you’re going to ignore me or forget stuff, I’ll likely let you know with my scanty tip, but I’ll tell you why. However, if you work hard or are obviously the go-to person for everyone else, you’ll get a very nice tip from me....

Over the years of working with numerous companies, the single biggest challenge that I have come up against is the reality that most businesses are built around a collection of email in-boxes belonging to its team members. If I am lucky, those in-boxes have folders and labels attached to them, but this is rarely the case. The problem is that a collection of in-boxes is not an open system. An open system is characterised by transparency in communication and a flat approach to team structures, which makes blame-shifting very hard to do....

Here are four ways the modern world is setting you up for failure: Instant Gratification It is very easy and cheap to buy that snack, marathon that show (hello, Netflix weekends!) and distract yourself in the most pleasurable ways. This should be a good thing, but it’s also a really bad thing. Why? Because of instant gratification. A lot of us are hooked on that “high” that comes when you do something to please yourself, and it’s destroying our ability to work through things that are hard in order to achieve our goals....

Not all jobs are created equal. Even with a college degree, the salary gap greatly varies for professions that are in-demand and for ones with limited slots. Furthermore, due to advancements in technology and shifts in needs, some jobs are now extinct. For students, these times can be confusing. Luckily, not all jobs are susceptible to dips in the economy. In fact, some professions such as consultants and financial managers grow despite cutbacks in the job sector....

I pose the question because in the early stages of my fitness career, following an exercise demonstration, I would get comments like, “wow, I used to move like that,” and “It must be nice to be still so young” and “wait until you are my age, you won’t be able to move like that.” Taken back by the remarks, I began to examine the validity of each statement. I wondered, was it easy because I was still relatively young and will I begin to experience a steady decline in basic human movement?...

There are dominant ideas in every walk of life. They are the assumptions, rules and conventions that underpin systems and influence people’s thinking and attitudes. The idea that the Earth was flat or that the Earth was the centre of the Universe are examples of dominant ideas that polarized thought along set lines. Once the dominant ideas are in place then everything else is viewed in a way that supports them....

In a study published in the journal Optics Express, Kyungah Choi and Hyeon-Jeong Suk look at the way lighting can boost student success in the classroom. Research Background In the preliminary and main study, Choi and Suk examined the effects of different correlated color temperatures (CCTs). The CCT characterizes the color of a given light source. A low CCT gives out a light that appears “warm” or yellowish white. A high CCT gives out a light that appears “cool” or bluish white....

While it can be easy to operate for a day or two on a lack of sleep, the long-term effects can be detrimental. One big problem is that we can get used to not sleeping enough.

In the commercial, a father hears his baby crying. At first he uses his phone to try and cheer his baby up (because reasons ???), but no amount of cartoon penguins or live video of the mother will cheer the baby up. Eventually, the father realises he can’t calm his baby from behind a screen and reminds us all that real contact is always superior.

1. What are you paid to do? In other words, what is it that you were taken on to accomplish? What is it that you are supposed to be doing? Most people answer this question with some form of their job description or objectives. 2. What is it that you actually do? When I ask this second question in my workshops people often say that they spend most of their time on low-value tasks like reading and answering emails, completing reports, attending poorly run meetings, etc....
