6 Clues That You’re Life-ing Right

Picture

💎 You no longer lie to yourself. You realize that telling yourself that you’re on the right path or making the best decisions for the sake of being liked, especially when it isn’t true, doesn’t suit you. You’d rather take the road less traveled and figure things out one step at a time. What’s the worst that could happen?
Your life’s not perfect and you don’t pretend that it is.
💎 Your need for validation decreases. Whatever you have a desire to do, you do just that. No apologies. The saying goes: “Other people’s opinions of you are not your business!” In the grand scheme of things you realize that whether you’re living up to the standards of others or not, there will always be someone to remind you how imperfect you are. Shrugs.
💎You don’t chase titles. You understand that titles define the ‘what’ but not ‘who’, which is ultimately your true essence. In the rat race up the success ladder the victor doesn’t go to the quickest but to the one who endures so even though the title is a nice reward you know at the core of your spirit that the true winner is you!
💎You own your flaws. People remind you of what you come from but you’ve gotten so comfortable and passed those stages in life that you’re able to accept their criticisms with a grain of salt and your energy is redirected to embrace the new stage you’re at. When you own who you are, flaws and all, life is smooth sailing and the air smells better. There’s nothing to prove to anyone but self.
💎You have moved out of the box. From the time of birth, life is spent being instructed on what to do, when to do it, and the how. Now, you’re at the point where you make the necessary decisions that bring you gratification. ‘Society-soshmiety’. You change careers when you want, travel and eat if/when you get the urge, and you do a damned good job at doing you! Kudos to you!
💎You’ve found your tribe. The people around you accept you for who you are. They bring energy and feed off of yours. Reciprocity is the name of the game. Your tribe consists of individuals who share your ideals, morals, and values, and people who thrive on the joys of living life without the judgments that is human nature.

Top 5 Friends You DON’T Need Where You’re Going

“Top 5 Friends You DON’T Need Where You’re Going”
by Maat Kheru

☀️Chronic Self-doubters. These are those people who do not believe in themselves, like ever, and will keep themselves tied to why their elevation seems unfathomable. Eventually this thinking will cause you to start second-guessing your abilities as well. Where you’re going, try a Chronic Self-starter!
☀️Self-minimizers. “It’s nothing to brag about”, I’m starting my lil business“, “It’s not much but it’s something”. (Insert cringe here) The self minimizer sees themself as minute (mī-noot) ...they play down their accomplishments and milestones. Where you’re going small-minds have no place. Surround yourself with those who exude confidence & won’t dumb themselves nor their achievements down for others.
☀️“Broke” People. A person who has a broke mentality will attract exactly that. Anything attached to them loses. Choose wisely. Get you someone who desires wealth for themselves. *Wealth doesn’t automatically equate to finances.
☀️Secret Cheerleaders. If you can’t root for me while I’m on the stage, don’t do it when the curtains close. It’s self-explanatory. These people usually have underlying motives and sometimes jealousy and envy play their role in this equation. There’s that.
☀️“Yes” Men/ Women. These are the people who will tell you that every decision you’re making is great, even when it isn’t. This can be detrimental to where you’re going and could set you back. You need people who will be honest with you and hold you accountable even when your ideas/decisions suck.

Not only does exercise release endorphins, which are also known as the happy hormone but exercise is also a great way to release tension and rid your body and mind of whatever frustrations built up that day! And lets be honest, what person doesn’t walk out of the gym after a hard session with their chin that little bit higher and their chest a little big bigger! Good food is the perfect compliment to exercise. Eating well does not have to be complicated or time consuming. Eating well will ensure that you have limitless energy, vitality and clarity.

The Modern Dating Game: Navigating Love in the Digital Age

Picture











​    Dating has changed dramatically over the years. Gone are the days when people relied solely on chance meetings or mutual friends to find love. Today, dating apps, social media, and shifting relationship dynamics have completely transformed the way we connect. But with all these changes come new challenges. If you’re trying to navigate the modern dating world, here’s what you need to know.


1. Online Dating: The Good, The Bad, and The Ugly


Online dating is one of the biggest revolutions in modern romance. With apps like Tinder, Bumble, and Hinge, meeting potential partners is just a swipe away. But while it increases the chances of finding someone, it also comes with its own set of issues—ghosting, catfishing, and endless scrolling that can make dating feel like a never-ending game.


Tips for success in online dating:
    •    Be clear about what you’re looking for in your profile.
    •    Avoid generic openers—show genuine interest in the person.
    •    Don’t take rejection personally; not every match is meant to be.


2. The Rise of Situationships and Casual Dating


Many people today prefer to keep things casual rather than committing to a traditional relationship. While there’s nothing wrong with that, it’s important to ensure both partners are on the same page. Miscommunication can lead to heartache if one person wants more than the other.


How to handle a situationship:
    •    Set boundaries early.
    •    Have an open conversation about expectations.
    •    Know when to walk away if it’s not fulfilling.


3. Social Media and Dating: A Blessing and a Curse


Social media has made it easier to stay connected but also adds extra pressure to relationships. From “soft launching” a partner on Instagram to checking when they were last online, it can create unnecessary stress.


Healthy ways to balance social media in dating:
    •    Don’t compare your relationship to others online.
    •    Set boundaries on social media interactions.
    •    Focus on real-life moments, not just digital ones.


4. Dating Etiquette in 2025: What’s Changed?


Some traditional dating rules have evolved. While chivalry isn’t dead, equality and mutual effort are more important than ever. Splitting the bill, communicating openly, and respecting boundaries are now the norm.


Modern dating etiquette tips:
    •    Be upfront about your intentions.
    •    Don’t ghost—if you’re not interested, just say so politely.
    •    Respect personal space and boundaries.


5. The Importance of Self-Love Before Dating


Before looking for love in someone else, it’s essential to have self-love and confidence. Many people jump into relationships hoping to fill a void, but true happiness comes from within.


Ways to practice self-love:
    •    Pursue your own passions and hobbies.
    •    Set personal goals outside of relationships.
    •    Don’t settle for less than what you deserve.


Final Thoughts


Dating in the modern era can be exciting but also overwhelming. The key is to stay true to yourself, communicate openly, and not rush into anything that doesn’t feel right. Whether you’re looking for something casual or a lifelong partner, the best relationships are built on honesty, respect, and mutual understanding.

5 old school bodybuilding exercises that will never go out of style!!!

5 Old School Bodybuilding Exercises That Endure
Bodybuilding exercises come and go. Most trends change with the invention and increased popularity of newfangled machines, workout routines, and exercise theories. But despite the routine upheaval in bodybuilding exercise trends that comes around just about every five years, certain old school exercises remain globally popular and widely used. Here are five such old school exercises and the reasons they rock.
1. Bench Press
Get it done with free weights, get it done with a machine, but get it done just the same. Why? The bench press is the single most effective exercise for your upper body, primarily hitting your chest. This movement also recruits fibers in your arms, delts, and back, letting you hit multiple heads from shoulder to shoulder.
This exercise is as old as the sport of bodybuilding. Yet even to this day, rookies and pros measure their overall strength and gym cred according to how much they can bench. Benching properly requires enormous control, discipline, and strength, making it a central component to any effective, extensive workout.
2. Biceps Curls
A bulging, chiseled chest is synonymous with power, masculinity, and strength. But huge guns are the keys to the kingdom. Curls isolate the biceps, one of the upper arm muscle groups that help you to complete nearly every other upper body exercise.
Full, round biceps are also the most aesthetically alluring to admirers, according to IFBB pro Nate Dugdale writing for EliteFTS.com. This accounts for the old expression “curls for girls.”
Biceps curls are as old school as it gets, but they never get old and neither do their rewards. Who doesn’t love big guns? And speaking of big guns…
3. Triceps Extensions
Triceps make up two-thirds of your upper arm, and they are the fastest growing muscle group in your entire body. Beginners start to see bigger, more defined triceps after just a few weeks of heavy lifting. Triceps extensions are the classic go-to exercise, mostly because they’re extremely effective, and they present opportunities for variety in terms of execution.
For example, you can do them standing, sitting or lying down. When performed lying down, they’re called skullcrushers. You may use dumbbells or barbells with either variation.
4. Crunches
Nothing hits abs and obliques like crunches, although you may want to supplement these with leg raises to work lower abs. When done properly, crunches isolate your abs, resulting in that classic striated 6-pack or 8-pack you’ve seen on all your favorite bodybuilding idols and those vintage action figure toys, such as He-Man and Conan.
There are no hard and fast rules about numbers of crunches to do. Just do as many sets as you can to failure, one to four times weekly.
5. Squats
Whether you choose to use the smith cage or the power rack, incorporating squats is key to strength, definition, and power in your quads, lower back, hams, glutes, and even your lower legs.
Quads are the largest muscle group in your entire body. Working your quads through squats increases your testosterone, growth hormone, and your overall muscle mass, according to Muscle & Fitness.
Old school bodybuilders had first hand understanding of the benefits of squats. This is why this exercise remains on the radar after decades and decades. It is the fundamental lower body/total body exercise for mass, speed, power, and strength.

YDNOTES #11 HOW TO PULL THE FEMALE YOU WANT!

Picture

​ You'll think this Blog Post is to good to be true but if you follow every step to the T in this Post then trust me you will have (FAR LESS) problems then you already have getting that female you always wanted. (BTW Every Female have a particular taste in the men they want so I don't get upset if you don't get every female..) (If the Chick like eskimos and your not an eskimo then let them be.)

-THE FIRST RULE! Is to build confidence, confidence, confidence! If you don't believe in yourself the how the hell the female is supposed to believe in you? Ive made a blog post called YDNote#10 **Confidence is key** back in June so go read that. Confidence builds respect for yourself and females are only looking for leaders. If the female is leading you then soon she'll lose respect for you. So build confidence is for starters.

-SECOND PHASE! Most interactions are %85 Body language %15 Actual talking.. Pay attention to vibes of the female

-THIRD UNDERSTANDING!!! Understand that women care more about what you think of them than more than what you think about yourself & And more of how you view yourself than more of what they think you are. So if you approach strong you’ll get strong vibes. If you view yourself as a king 👑, you’ll get treated like a king.

YDNotes#9 *With Orders of Repetition*

Picture
You ever go out of your way of doing something, I'll say a big task without no one's consent and when your finally completed the task.. The person or your superior (Manager, boss) tell you how the idea won't last forever which he was right because no one is on the same page with your agenda ends up presenting you with the same idea of your previous agenda down the road like it something new to the world?? Yea I hate that, and guess what it happens a lot when your working at a medial job..
With Honesty I don't think humans were designed to work a 9-5, if your very fluent in a skill then it would be better if you just work on that skill because Money ends up coming when you stick to it.. Believe me when I tell you this! You'll will never get rich working for someone else.

Gaia Electi Preamble -1



We have no choice in the decision we make, if it's about survival as a whole then we'll have to sacrifice the few.. I understand We're Floating the line in Morality but how else will we survive? We're outnumbered and the rest will refuse the enlightenment. We must continue the battle without them..
~ Tonio Kuro

Atrament has always been a valuable resource on this planet, this resource can be used to create all kinds of wonders and only could be found in living things. It's not easy to extract it either because it's only found in Hue-man beings.. An Hue-man with Natural Atrament has the ability to feel the vibrations of the planet and communicate with their chosen Orisha (Depending on the month the Hue-man was born) they'll have access to that Chosen Orisha ability if they continue to hone in on it.. Now just that fact right there shows how much of a threat they're to us and what pro cautions we'll have to take to survive!! But I know you have questions so I'll be happy to answer them..
How are we supposed to control the Hue-mans?
Great question, I'll explain that to you.. Since we don't possess the ability to create Atrament for ourselves yet we've managed to construct tools that will extract Atrament from the Hue-mans and wield their abilties (Atra-Extractors) I'll say..
Scientist- So I see we'll oppress them with their own abilities?
In a way yes, we have to keep a grip on them to self preserve our way of life.

YDNotes #8 A Guide to Self Improvement Part 1 (Read this Nerds)

Picture
It's been a while since I've done a YDNote so let's dive right in..
Alright so let me guess, your an Lame,Nerd, Otaku, Geek whatever people going by in 2016 (Yea I'm saying 2016 because we only have a Week left in 2015) and your having a hard time trying talk to the females so guess what your in luck.. I'm starting a little step by step guide on how to get your points up from physical, Mental all the way to psychology went it comes to speaking to women and gonna get into crazy detail so your not gonna want to miss this blog topic.


Physical
So I don't wanna waste time but let's get to the point.. The first category we're gonna start with is Physical.. Meaning what's your body looking like. If your overweight it's time to cut down on the Doritos (wane away from Carbohydrates) or make a substitution to a different snack (Fruits or Vegetables). Or if your having a hard time giving it up do a google search on Conjugated Linoleic Acid or CLA for short..
Here's a Brief Photo

CLA or Conjugated Linoleic Acid is a Soft Gel that actually helps with cutting down weight and keeping muscle you just have to take 2 before you start eating a meal (Breakfast, Lunch & Dinner) and drink a least a gallon of water a day your good to go.. I Recommend this product because its very safe, it's also found in Dairy and Meat Products and I consider it a natural supplement. I also recommend Natural supplements like Tumeric or Curcumin (which is a herbal supplement found it Mustard which increases testosterone naturally which leads to fat burn. And Arginine(A Natural Nitric Oxide) that gives you an energy boost for workout..

Now for workouts let's start simple like push-ups What I Recommend is Downloading a Push-up all for your smartphone or Tablet (Trust me they have one for this day and era) and just follow the routine from there.
If you don't know how to do a push up; Lie prone on the ground with hands placed as wide or slightly wider than shoulder width. Keeping the body straight, lower body to the ground by bending arms at the elbows. Raise body up off the ground by extending the arms. Repeat.) If it's your first time, Try to aim for 5 sets of 5-10 reps with 30 second rest between each set (5-10 Reps=Rest 30 seconds Repeat until 5 Sets are finished) for a schedule of 3 times a Week (Monday, Wednesday & Friday) while increase reps by 5 into the next week with water for a beverage and listen to your favorite music for motivation or something with a fast tempo.
Next is Walking/Running, try walking around your neighborhood for starters for at least 30mins to an 1hr Repeat this every week or if you go to the gym run on a treadmill for 10mins to 100 calories with a incline of 3.0(For starters) (If you can't then at least keep moving around.)

Now Physical plays a heavy part in self improvement because getting in shape in General increases your self esteem, discipline and Confidence to talk to Females. So first start with Physical and before you move on to the next part (Physical is not a problem for you, then stick around because we're gonna dive into Mental!!)
