  Intermittent Fasting for Beginners | The Natural Method To Lose Weight, Boost Energy, and Regenerate Your Body by Luca Morelli   Recently I read a book on Intermittent fasting that was an interesting read. The writing style was simple and accessible. As a person who had heard about this but had no deep idea about how intermittent fasting worked, I learned a lot from this book. This book made me curious about how intermittent fasting worked. Intermittent fasting introduced many core concepts that imparted a clear and succinct understanding on how this method was a healthy approach towards enhancing one’s quality of life.  As a person who hasn’t read many books on health and lifestyle, I had no idea what to expect from this book. But this book was written in an informative tone that conveyed a ton of useful information without unnecessary fluff, just the way I like it when it comes to non fiction. The author introduced practical approaches as to how one could start invest...

  I have come across many people who lie, cheat and scam people out of their money, time and energy working in digital marketing and social media. This experience has been invaluable to me to help me understand more about how to spot a profile that might belong to a scammer. While on LinkedIn it’s very rare, as the system warns you about accepting connection requests from certain individuals, other platforms don’t do a good job at keeping these devious cybercriminals at bay. They Rarely Show Their Face From their profile picture to the images they upload, it’s mostly not about them and what they do. This is one major giveaway, if they don’t have a profile picture, especially on LinkedIn, they are likely hiding something because LinkedIn is one of the safest platforms online - if I say so myself. Unlike Meta who does a subpar job at keeping unlawful activities at bay, LinkedIn does a much better job. If they don’t even bother to upload a profile picture on a secure platform like Lin...

Since people here just adore throwing around the word, “ethics” I thought I will talk about the ethics of using AI or artificial intelligence. Artificial Intelligence didn’t magically appear during the last few years, as it appears to have, it has been around for 60 plus years, officially. I think people tend to go to town with things, especially if they are from where I am. Here are some things you might want to consider when using “AI” or artificial intelligence.  AI is Not Always Right While I can’t argue that I felt that AI is honest more than most people here, it tells the truth it thinks is true. Since it was created by humans, who are not always right (even if they firmly believe they are in and are oftentimes are in complete denial due to pride and ego), AI can make mistakes too. In other words, it can be wrong. Therefore when consulting AI on important matters, other than posting things on social media, you might want to fact-check what AI tools such as ChatGPT says. If Yo...

  You will learn it the easy way or the hard way - that money has wings as long as you give it wings. How do you give it wings? By not planning out your finances. At this point in time, I’m struggling with the aforementioned issue. I have a habit of spending impulsively - which is something I see as being detrimental to my financial stability. I’m trying to cut costs as much as possible - the first thing I thought of doing was to stop eating out and to stop lending people money without knowing for sure that they will pay it back (unless it is a gift of course). People have a way of taking advantage of people who don’t have a proper financial strategy in place. While it does sound rather harsh, I am writing this because I firmly believe that everyone should plan out how they spend their money - or suffer the consequences (like I have). While failing and making mistakes is inevitable, learning from them is super important. If you don’t learn from your mistakes, you will keep repeatin...
