Do you feel stuck? Like every day is Groundhog Day? Are you waiting for life to change, but you don’t know how to make it change? Change starts with releasing what no longer serves you. So many of us don’t even realize how much we are burdened and dragged down by expectations that we were never given a choice about. Make space in your life for the good that’s coming to you by getting rid of these 3 habits that are holding you back and draining you dry. Following are from Amy Waterman's [1] advise: Habit #1. Accommodating Others The first habit I challenge you to release is the habit of accommodating others. We are utterly  terrified  of saying or doing the wrong thing. We don’t want to scare a guy off. We don’t want to be a bother or make a fuss. And so we hide everything. We hide it when we’re upset. We hide it when someone does something that hurts us. We even hide it when someone makes us uncomfortable. We tell ourselves that it was nothing. It will only hurt thei...

There is no better feeling in all the world than being in love. It is better than any kind of partying. But when the break up happens... Boom - Crash.  It can seem like your world is falling apart at the seams. So what do you do when you lose a guy that you were madly, deeply in love with. How do you win back your ex boyfriend? One of the best ways to win back your ex boyfriend is to understand exactly what happened in the relationship in the first place. Relationships break up for lots of different reasons, but when a man leaves a woman it almost always boils down to one single reason. I'm going to share a secret with you about men, that sometimes men themselves aren't even aware of. I learned this several years back, and it has changed my life. What men really want is admiration.  This is not quite as simple as it seems. Men really want admiration from their women.  They not only want it, they seem to crave it on almost subconscious level, and when they don't get it, th...

According to surveys done with thousands of men, here are the BIG 8 of what men really want women to do and be like. How to please your man? Is he happy with me? What does he want me to do?  These are just some of the questions that constantly plague women. We end up obsessing about it and ultimately jump to the wrong conclusions. This, is what they really want: 1) Guys absolutely love the attention that you splurge on them. Whether you are trying to attract them or have been in a relationship for a long time. Fuss over them and you will be richly rewarded for your effort. 2) Men are really attracted to women that are happy with themselves and how they look. Simple gestures that exert confidence turn them on.  Your walk, flicking of your hair, your smile, simple gestures like touching your waste or bum. If you are confident in yourself and show interest in them - they feel special and singled out. 3) Guys love everything feminine about you (but in moderation!). Your perfume,...

What men want from a woman is sometimes a hard question that has no answer and for that reason makes it even harder to understand men and how their minds work.  What men want are women that don't bug them, especially during work. Guys just think you are hounding them and they just need that space, that way they will look forward to seeing you without being put off. Men want someone who shows emotional support. Somebody who is courageous enough to jump into their oceans of troubles and be able to prove to them that they're not anything more than puddles.  This doesn't affect everyone, but for others who do tend to get sucked into distress due to the difficulties they suffer at work, etc. a wife or partner who will comfort her partner and tell him that it really isn't worth worrying about will always be in his good books.  What men want in a woman is someone who's positive. To understand men involves a great deal of understanding yourself first. If you really would li...

Article from James Bauer[1] Think of the last guy who really flaked on you. What did he do? Didn’t text/call you back. Disappeared on you. Didn’t show up for a date. These days, it’s common for someone to vanish off the face of the earth, whether it’s  ghosting  (in which he disappears for good) or  zombie-ing  (where he disappears unexpectedly, only to pop back in your life like nothing happened). Despite the increase in flaky behavior, it’s still rare that a guy would arrange a date with you, and then simply not show up. (Even he knows he’d better text you if he’s going to cancel!) That gives you a clue about the best way to deal with flaky behavior in guys.  Why Guys Flake You might think that everyone knows right from wrong… And surely these guys should have learned better behavior… But what’s normal today isn’t what was normal even 10 years ago. Technology has changed the way we interact. New norms are being created all the time. Maybe you remember the...

When you met your guy, it was amazing. He treated you like a queen. He took you out. He listened. He wanted to learn everything you liked so he could give it to you. You felt seen, treasured, appreciated…. Everything you’d ever hoped for. So why does he do NONE of those things now? Now he just slumps on the sofa and watches the game and expects you to be there. It’s like he did all that work of winning you… And now he doesn’t have to do anything. Why?? Doesn’t he value you anymore? To figure out the answer, you need to know 3 things about men. #1. His focus shifts once he gets into a relationship. The flames of passion burn hot when you meet someone new. Your body is flooded with lust and attraction chemicals that give you a boost of energy and wellbeing. You can stay up all night with your beloved and bounce into work the next day. Colors seem sharper; the world feels full of possibilities. Yet that honeymoon phase eventually cools. It HAS to. You don’t have the energy to keep it up. ...

An article from Amy Waterman.[1] "There’s nothing more nerve-wracking than dressing up to go out and looking at yourself in the mirror… And seeing all the bags under your eyes and the lines and the spots and all the ways in which you’re definitely no longer 21! You know your body better than anyone, and you know all the ways in which it falls short. But you make yourself go out, and you put on a smile, and you hope for the best, even though you know nothing’s going to happen. Love is for those beautiful young things with time on their hands and energy and no job to get back to in the morning. So instead of looking around to see who’s noticing you, instead of flipping your hair and preening and batting your eyelashes, you do what YOU do best: You focus on making other people feel good. You ask people questions, you laugh at their jokes, you see who needs help. You make people smile, and you consider the evening a success. That’s one of the wonderful things about women. Women are SO...
