Wanna Be a Genius For a While? Maybe This Hat Would Make It Come True



Do you ever dreamed to be a genius or very creative person, like an artist? You have studied music or painting, but already give up your dream because you're not creative enough?

There's a new hope for you, coming from some Sidney Univ. researcher from Australia. Dailymail reported that now they're developing a "thinking cap" that could artistic and reading ability, and boost your creativity only by wearing it for few minutes, simply it's able to unlock hidden potential in human brain.

Yes, this invention is still far away from market. But just imagine this, by this time now, only some few of us are able to make a painting or sculpture, and only a small number of them are categorized as masterpiece of art. But few years later, maybe we will see an "artist" without art education background and lack of experience produce many masterpiece painting, only by wearing this "smart" cap. It seems that in future, we could short passed art education to be an artist.

And what's wrong with that? I myself studying painting right now, and I know how it's hard to be a good artist, and we have to learn it for many years to be a good and idealistic painter. It seems that our next generation could be an artist instantly without proper education or experience, only by wearing this cap. Technology is very helpful, but for some reason we have to keep in mind that learning process is something more valuable than modernization.

How about your opinion? You can send your comment here. Thanks

5 Tips to Increase Your Confidence Instantly



Confidence is a part of success. But sadly, many people these days are lack of confidence at all. I myself were have no confidence, but I got these simple tips from my friend, and I'd like to share it here :

1. Do proper grooming
Appearance is one big part of confidence. You don't have to be a blinked metrosexual guy, just spend more time for shower, shaving, brushing... and the new you has born!

2. Set goals and make it happened
Make your own daily, monthly, and lifelong goals, and accomplish it. You can start by making
simple goals and accomplish it in short time, and stepped to bigger goals. By accomplishing
goals, your confidence will grow even higher than before.

3. Exercise
I know many people hate this part (including me). Just imagine yourself with exhausted body
and weakened muscles. How could we build self confidence with that bad condition? Have a
15 minutes daily exercise, let your blood flow in your body, and start a new day!

4. Never stop learning new knowledge
Constant learning is biggest part of self development, yet it will boost your confidence either.
By having new knowledges and skills, you have new chance to show your capability, making
new friend and find new job, and uprising your confidence.

5. Have a nice flashback of your pastime success
Success and failure is part of everyone's life. If you failed and made mistake recently, and
trapped in bad mood, there's simple way to get rid of the bad situation. Have a nice seat at a
comfortable sofa, close your eyes, try to remembering your pastime success. Maybe you have
won little league at your primary school, dating the hottest girl at your school, or receiving
your first salary at your dream job. If you started to remember how it feels to be successful,
write it on a paper or note. This note proofing that you can be successful too, just like other
successful people. Read that note everytime you feel dumped or wasted, and start a new day!

Is that too simple? Maybe, but by practicing it, you will find a big difference in you. Have a nice day, and a "new" confidence!

Everclear - Not to Pick Up Chicks!







Liquors and other alcoholic beverages are our handy mate to pick up chicks. And fire camp on cabin is suitable enough to build romantic sensation to attract our girl to bed. Nice combination, but can we make them with one ingredient?

Yes, if you've got this firebreath maker Everclear. Everclear is considered as one of the strongest alcoholic drink available on market today, not to say that it's actually a ( almost ) pure alcohol liquid packed in tall liquor bottle. Everclear is grain alcohol, and available in 95% alcohol concentration / 190 proofs (!) and 75,5% alcohol concentration / 151 proofs. That's more than enough to build a camp fire ( or burning your house). Ordinary pick up chicks already get hangover with a drought beer, and double shot of Vodka ( 40% alcohol ) is enough to kick her ass. So, just imagine what would happen if you give single shot of Everclear to her...

95% alcohol version Everclear is illegal in more than 10 states, but we can still have the 75,5% version instead. So, how's the flavor of this fire-starter liquid? The good news is it doesn't contain much sugar and flavor additive, so ( maybe ) it's save to drink if you won't get hangover the next morning. But Everclear is rarely consumed in the pure state and almost always used in cocktails. Well, who dare to, anyway?
