Follow Your Intuition: Your Gut Feelings Are Soundly Based

Whatever we do the most of during our waking hours is information that we store. The more experiences that are stored in our subconscious, the more hunches we get, so most of our gut feelings involve our day-to-day activities. A professional gambler who follows his hunches is often very “lucky.” His subconscious mind is steering him in the right direction because of all of his past experiences. He is subconsciously counting cards or calculating the odds on a particular bet. His winnings are based upon experience, not luck.

Exercise Can Extend Survival: Physical or Fiscal, Exercise is Good For Business

The jury is in and the verdict rendered. Exercise, even for the “oldest old” is good for you and may extend you life.

Active was described as “more than fours hours of exercise weekly,” and consisted of walking and other forms of fitness. The study also concluded that previously inactive people of all ages benefited from starting an exercise regimen. Those who were part of the test reported also that the “active group” experiences less depression and loneliness. They also had an easier time performing routine, daily tasks.
