Eat Your Fruits and Vegetables

Have you asked yourself whether or not ten years from now you will enjoy the bite of an apple? Or the crunchiness of a stalk of celery?

Don’t wait until tomorrow to eat your fruits and vegetables. Eat them today! Why wouldn’t you want to live a happy life?

Still not convinced? Okay, let me give you a science lesson. Have you ever heard of vitamin E? Vitamin E is something your body does not synthesize, so you must consume it. Its role is a biological antioxidant? What does that mean? Well, your body contains lots of reactive oxygen species. These species may cause various effects. In case you're wondering, yes, these species may cause cancer. So, how do you combat them? Well, EAT YOUR VITAMIN E.

I hope you will eat your fruits and vegetables now. If not, you know the consequences.

Why Shrek Would Be One Friendly Nurse

If you are looking to hire a nurse, I know just the right person.

Here he is. Let me give you a rundown of his resume and 4 reasons why he would benefit you.

Number 1. Shrek is extremely hygienic. Look at him! He wears a mask as a safety precaution while he is dealing with the dragon and treating her fire breath. And remember when Fiona wanted to pull the arrow out of Shrek’s bottom? Shrek doesn’t let her. Why? Because pulling the arrow out may lead to the spread of blood born diseases. Clean enough for you?

Number 2. He knows how to entertain kids. Shrek understands the mechanics of making an awesome balloon. And if kids have a party in the playroom, Shrek is a wild party animal. Imagine how wild the kids will be when they Shrek screams as he does in Shrek Forever After.

Number 3. He will stand up for the rights of his patient and the facility. Look, when the swamp was overcrowded, Shrek goes to Lord Farquaad to fight for the right of the swamp in hopes of making it less crowded. And do you remember all those knights that he had to scare away? He did that all to make people stay away so that he could take care of others and himself.

Number 4. Shrek is a master of getting people to do what he wants. Don’t believe his skills? How about when he got Donkey to do this [crossing the bridge]? If that isn't some epic jedi sublimal skills, I don't know what is.

How Video Games Suck Out Your Uncreativeness

I can only speak from my personal experiences, and the judge of whether my words are true rests on your shoulders. As a kid, I loved playing video games, reading comic books, and watching TV. In fact, I did these 3 things so much that I never did my homework or studied. With that being said, did that make me any less smart or did it in any way squash my potential to have been great? Nope. In fact, it was perhaps these three things that made me who I am today. I feel more creative, smarter, and can think faster because of those activities.

But let’s face it. I still wouldn’t consider myself successful. Sure I am more creative or smarter, but I seem to be progressing slower than usual. Others seem to be getting higher grades or accomplish feats much more glorious than anything I could possibly have done.

Should I lessen the time I spend playing video games, passively reading comic books, and going on Netflix? The answer is yes and no.

Yes, because sometimes those 3 things provide too much of a distraction to oneself that it takes away from one’s real work. If I am always online, I may not have time to do homework.

No, because we can transcend to the next level of gaming, reading, and TV watching. You see, there is a way for me to interact with the things I love without being distracted. All you have to do is innovate.

Innovate? What is that supposed to mean? Think about this: when you are gaming, you are actively playing out a role or exploring a map that someone else has designed for you. Your imagination and power is limited only to that world. But what happens if you were the person creating the game? That flips everything around. Instead, you are the person designing the world. Your imagination and power is unlimited.

It is not the act of playing games that make you smarter, but rather the act of going one step further and creating something out of your passion and love for a hobby. That’s what makes you successful.

3 Best Weapons Against An Alien Invasion

It could happen today. It could happen tomorrow. It could happen 100 years after our generation. If we don’t prepare for it, we will be exterminated from the planet. Do we want to leave our planet open for alien destruction? If not, I have three weapons that can be used against the alien invasion.

Giants

No, we’re not referring to the giants from Jack and the Beanstalk. We’re talking about the giants from Pacific Rim. But the difference between the Pacific Rim Jaegers and our robots, is that we don’t have to limit ourselves to rocket powered punches, explosives, and blades. Why, we can use deadly acids, nuclear weapons, and even biological weapons. I’m sure the giant robots we will be making can shoot missiles out of their chests and knock out an entire alien fleet.

Quantum Teleportation

You know, quantum mechanics has gone to point where they are considering teleporting people from one place to another. If this technology does become real, we will have a weapon of our own. Imagine one person against a fleet of aliens. All he or she has to do is teleport around each alien and destroy them one by one. The aliens can’t hit our one person army, but our one person army can annihilate an entire battalion.

Music Fest

Have we ever consider the possibility that the alien soldiers are tired of invading other planets? Maybe they just want to go home to their families. In other words, they are demoralized. Why not demoralize them even more with music? They’ll be shaking their bodies so much they’ll forget about invading Earth.

Keep these possibilities in mind in case an alien invasion occurs. Share these ideas with friends and families, and see what they will use to defend themselves against invaders.

The Biggest Mistake With Eating Ice Cream

“That kid is so smart.”

“I wish I had an iPhone! I want one myself.”

“Look at that guy. He owns several houses and some of the sickest cars in the world.”

It’s definitely disappointing when we see someone else with something we want. What makes us more upset is that we will never get our hands on it. How we wish we could be like them.

I would like to shed a different perspective on things. So, you think that person you envy lives an awesome life?

Let’s say you are poor. You see somebody who’s wealthy. They eat ice cream every day. Saliva drools from your mouth. If only you could have one bite of that vanilla ice cream. If only they would let you lick their chocolate sundae.

Want to know something? I’m a rich man. I will buy you a lifetime’s supply of ice cream. Sounds good? Alright. Here’s a mint chocolate ice cream cone.

You devour the cone in a minute. Want another one? Sure, here you go. You devour this one in less than a minute. You know what, I know you love ice cream. Look behind me. Here is a truck full of ice cream. Dig in!

After about a day, you sit in the empty truck with the empty ice cream containers. But I know you love ice cream. Here is another truck full of ice cream. What? You don’t want ice cream anymore? You feel terrible? You have cavities? Nonsense. C’mon! Just one more truckload of ice cream. You’re living like that kid who you envied a day ago. Isn’t this what you wanted?

Never assume someone lives an awesome life on the basis on the pleasure they derive of materialism. As George Bernard Shaw once stated, “The man with the toothache thinks everyone happy whose teeth are sound. The poverty stricken man makes the same mistake about the rich man.”

Why Your Life 'Ain't So Bad'

We all have had times where we tell ourselves “Why me!” or “I don’t want to do this!” I understand that we don’t have time to do other things or we simply hate doing what we’re asked. I hate doing chores. But do you know what motivates me to do them even when I hate it? I overcame this by asking myself three simple questions.

“How does cleaning the washroom sound to you?”

The question I most fear coming from my mom. There are germs and creepy little things crawling the washroom. Now that I think of it, my chores include washing the dishes, doing laundry, and vacuuming. These ain’t so bad compared to cleaning the toilet. I don’t want to deal with Mr. Clean and the toilet plunger.

“Would you rather become too poor to afford food?”

I can’t possibly imagine myself go hungry. And that’s great! Thinking of this statement made me realize how fortunate I am to live in a country where I’m well fed. The least I could do to alleviate the burden on my parents is to do some chores. Chores ain’t that bad when I compare it to the possibility of being too poor to afford food.”

“Are you really suffering as badly as war-torn countries?”

Chores ain’t near the level of badness of war. Think of it this way: there are millions of people who are dying and suffering from war. The suffering and pain I get from chores is nowhere near the level of war-torn countries. Again, my chores ain’t so bad.

Whenever you tell yourself “Why me!” or “I don’t want to do this!” ask yourself the three simple questions. That will allow you to see how little your problem is compare to other things. Hopefully, you can motivate yourself and others to do their work.

What questions do you ask yourself to motivate yourself to do work?

Why Pikachu Would Be One Awesome Undercover Agent

If you are looking to hire an undercover agent, I know just the right person.

Let me give you 4 reasons why he would benefit you.

Number 1. Pikachu is the best assassin in the world. Imagine a room full of men dress in suits, wearing sparkling watches and rings. Do you believe Pikachu can knock out everyone at once? Do you know how? All he has to do is do one of these [thunderbolt].

Number 2. Imagine meeting Pikachu on the streets. Isn’t he just adorable? He will charm just about anybody. What better way to get close to the target than to charm him or her? Nobody can resist him. Then what? Well, Pikachu may look cute and adorable, but when he gets his game on [evil Pikachu]…Anyways, moving on

Number 3. You don’t have to worry about Pikachu getting too close to his targets and starting an actual relationship with them. Pikachu does not have a change of heart. Remember all those times when Pikachu and Meowth got lost together? Pikachu saves him, but when Meowth tries to lead the way, Pikachu simple ignores him. No pity for Meowth. No friendship for Meowth. Pikachu maintains the same hostility towards Meowth.

And just imagine what is going through Pikachu’s mind. Maybe chuck Meowth off the cliff? Leave him in the forest with other wild beasts? Or perhaps something more sinister [evil Pikachu]…

Number 4. Underneath all that friendliness, Pikachu has many henchmen he charmed to work for him. Look at these! Are you sure Pikachu is best friends with Piplup? And how about Bunneary? I’m confident that if Pikachu just speaks, Bunneary would be begging Pikachu to let her help him on his quest.

If you think Pikachu would be one awesome undercover agent, please leave a comment. Thank you for reading and I’ll see you next time.
