“Each of our cells is a living entity, and the main thing that influences them is our blood. If I open my eyes in the morning and my beautiful partner is in front of me, my perception causes a release of oxytocin, dopamine, growth hormones - all of which encourage the growth and health of my cells. But if I see a saber tooth tiger, I'm going to release stress hormones which change the cells to a protection mode. People need to realize that their thoughts are more primary than their genes, because the environment, which is influenced by our thoughts, controls the genes.” PeopleIfsNeedsEyeBeautifulCausesGrowthRealizingMorningEnvironmentBloodInfluenceFrontsPerceptionStressProtectionPartnersTeethReleaseCellsPrimariesGenesEntityOur ThoughtsTigersHormonesDopamineOxytocinGrowth HormonesStress Release Author:Bruce H.

“Education spurs growth and unlocks potential. After all, a single year of primary education creates a 10 to 20 percent increase in a woman's wages later in life. Education lowers the risk of disease and decreases the likelihood that a child will fall into violence and crime. And a child born to a literate mother is 50 percent more likely to survive past age five. No country has achieved sustained growth without at least 40 percent literacy for its adults.” YearsChildrenCountryAgePastMotherFallGrowthBornFiveViolenceRiskCrimeDiseasePercentAdultsIncreasePrimariesWagesLiteracySpursDecreaseLikelihoodLater In LifePrimary Education Author:Shakira
“I often think there are three primary responses to suffering - rage, intoxication, or growth. We either want revenge for our pain, or we numb ourselves with the endless array of intoxicants available to us, from drugs to overwork, or we grow in empathy. Emptiness can transform into spaciousness; lack can become an agent of social action. But I think many of us struggle to remain on that third path without backsliding into the other two. I do.” ThinkingWantTwoActionPainSufferingThreeSocialGrowsGrowthStrugglePathDrugEmpathyThirdsResponseAvailableRevengeRageEndlessAgentsPrimariesEmptinessNumbIntoxicationOverworkSocial ActionSpaciousnessBacksliding Author:C.E.

“Obama and the Democrats' preposterous argument is that we are just one more big tax increase away from solving our economic problems. The inescapable conclusion, however, is that the primary driver of the short-term deficit is not tax cuts but the lack of any meaningful economic growth over the last half decade.” ProblemBigsLastsGrowthTermHalfCuttingEconomicTaxesArgumentIncreaseDemocratDecadesMeaningfulConclusionPrimariesJust OneDriversDeficitShort TermEconomic GrowthTax CutsEconomic ProblemsTax Increases Author:Bob Beauprez
