How to Decide on a Career

 Your job career should, whenever possible, be something you enjoy and something you seem to be naturally good at. Everyone on this planet is good at at least one thing, and most of use are good a several or more things. You can be good at a lot of things. 

Don't overly focus on the money, or which career pays more. You might be really great at creating and baking pies, and also good at delivering structured, well thought out and logical arguments.  A few friends say you would make a great lawyer, but is this what you want for a life career? Maybe you could start small with a bakery and then expand it into a huge enterprise making millions of dollars a year. If you are happier practicing law then become a lawyer.

A job doesn't have to be a daily grind in which you can't wait to clock-out and go home. You can do something you like and are good at, from home if you want. 

Maybe you are good at something but need more knowledge. Consider classes at a local college or online. Get yourself better at what you already have a good solid base for understanding. 

If you are young, try different careers and don't feel permanently attached to any one until you have that epiphany realizing this is what you want to do. 

If you are going to take the time and effort, not to mention money to go to college, pick a major right away and get the most of your studies. An undeclared major can be a costly mistake. 

The best careers are the one in which we really enjoy the work we are doing, and we're getting paid for it. Examples of this are musicians and other artists, writers, professors, scientists, dancers, architects and many more. Discover your interests and try to incorporate them into a career.

How to Put on Perfume or Cologne

 There is almost nothing sadder than when someone spends $100.00 on a bottle of smell-good, only to ruin it by putting on too much. People around are robbed of the opportunity to appreciate your investment, to catch a slight, aromatic whiff of your bottled scent as you pass them in the supermarket or in a fancy restaurant, work, everywhere you go.  And if you continue to take a bath in your perfume or cologne you have for all intents and purposes wasted your $100.00, because no one can appreciate the overwhelming scent you carry, and you would be better appreciated with no perfume or cologne on at all.  Sometimes the scent of perfume or cologne is so overwhelming it immediately invades the nostrils of others, causing some to actually feel sick or get a headache.  The best way to apply perfume or cologne to your body is not to directly apply it at all. To apply perfume or cologne place yourself in a room with high ceilings if possible. If not possible still use this p...

How to Create a Natural Privacy Fence by Growing Bamboo

 Bamboo, one of the fastest growing plants in the world is misunderstood by many people when it comes to gardening. The main reason for this is because some people do not have enough knowledge about bamboo and the 1,000 species of the plant. You can successfully grow bamboo in your yard with only a little extra knowledge about the plant and caring for it. You can create a natural fence of bamboo along perimeters of your yard by doing the following: 1. Plant a version called "clumping." There are numerous clumping versions of bamboo. Just make sure you have purchased a clumping version because it forms a root ball, and the roots should not spread like evasive varieties of the plant. 2. Decide the approximate height you are seeking for your privacy fence. This is because you can control the height of the bamboo early on. If you wait too long, it may take lift equipment to reach the top of the bamboo. You can also control the depth of the bamboo on a regular basis, for example i...

How to Make Vanilla Bourbon Chicken

                                                           Photo: Herbscapes.com Yesterday a neighbor gave me a small jar of Madagascar Bourbon vanilla she has been curing for about six months. The vanilla beans stood in a brown liquid of vanilla and bourbon. For some reason I immediately thought of chicken. I will definitely infuse this liquid gold into some dessert creations, but I happened to have three chicken filets in the fridge ready to make their culinary debut. I rinsed the filets under cold water and placed in a plastic bag. It occurred to me that if I poured too much of the vanilla bourbon into the bag, it would be absorbed by the filets and overtake the flavor, knocking out the fresh German thyme I planned to top on the cooked meal. In plain English: it would be too strong. I carefully dripped about an eighth of a teaspoon into...
