The reasons can be varied, but the fact remains that you are not able to achieve the goals or sub-goals you have set. You get stuck. The roughness of your failure has bruised your mind. So, you are no longer in the mood to move forward. You now feel that your failure is an ominous indication showing that you are facing an insurmountable obstacle to your growth. Is this situation real, or can you move ahead despite the failure that hit you hard? The answer is: Yes. This situation may be real, but it is not insurmountable.

Troubled Marriage? Is Divorce or Separation a Solution?

Several so-called experts have been misguiding us for many years that separation or divorce can be a wiser option, especially to protect children from the agony of being a victim of never-ending arguments at home. But researches done in recent years have proved otherwise. In fact, these researchers have proved that the decision of the married partners to separate is a faulty one. Children living with a single parent who is separated from the other partner are likely to be affected seriously. Let us find out more about this.

Lessons You Should Learn from Your Dog

It is often said that you can learn something from everyone you meet. But most of us do not realize that we can learn from animals including our pets as well. To quote an example, if you have a dog in your home, you can learn a few lessons from the animal also. Let us now discuss some of the lessons you can learn from your dog.  1.

Of course, he may be under leash but at times, you may have to use all your strength to prevent him from pouncing upon the strangers he does not like or some food item someone has discarded on the sidewalks. To put it precisely, thanks to the animal's canine instincts, your dog may refuse to be the best-behaved one even if you want him to be.
