*** Article: How Lucky Are You? - By Svetlana Stankic ***
------------------------------------------------------------ Over the years I have come to realize that for the most part we are the creators of our own experiences. Our so called "mind-set" is determined by how we think and what we think about, what we believe--both consciously and unconsciously--how we behave, and how we feel about the experiences and the events in our lives. More important, we can influence and change the patterns of our experiences--and thus change our lives. This has been proven time and again in the past two decades by psychologists and other behavioral and cognitive scientists examining what determines "destiny"--our so-called "good luck" or "misfortune."
A number of key factors have been identified as important determinants in how we experience life. In short, there are many things that we can do to change our luck for the better.

*** Article: Healing Social Phobia - By Margaret Paul, Ph.D. ***
------------------------------------------------------------ Social phobia - or social anxiety - is the fear of interacting with others in various situations: groups, work, school, parties, on the telephone, in a market or store, and so on. People with social phobia experience extreme anxiety or panic when they know that they have to talk or interact with others. They often find themselves isolating rather than risk the rejection or ridicule that they fear.
People with social phobia may be saying things to themselves such as:
- What if I make a fool of myself?
- What if I can't think of anything to say?
- What if I say something stupid?
- What if people think I'm weird?
- What if no one wants to talk with me?
- What if everyone can see how nervous I am?
- What if I blush?
What exactly causes social phobia?

*** Book Review: Working on Yourself Doesn't Work: The 3 Simple Ideas That Will Instantaneously Transform Your Life - By Ariel and Shya Kane ***
------------------------------------------------------------
Have you ever wondered what it would feel like to go through your life without stress or self-doubt? To have a real sense of inner peace and fulfillment? Now you can--through the three simple principles in this book. Just as they do in their world-renowned workshops, Ariel and Shya Kane teach a refreshingly natural approach to living that is easy to do yet dramatically transformative. The three simple ideas that form the foundation of their approach are:
- What you resist persists and grows stronger.
- You can only be exactly as you are in the moment.
- Anything you allow to be exactly as it is completes itself.
Once you grasp these three straightforward but enlightened concepts, you can stop "working" on yourself and start living the life you've always wanted--free from your old perceptions, and open to world of possibilities for discovering the ins and outs of who you are.
