		<description><![CDATA[One of the first things I teach my new students is the &#8220;a little, a lot&#8221; rule.
I suggest reading their college textbooks a little, a lot. Read small amounts frequently. The reasoning is simple: to stay focused, to remain productive, and to retain more.
I believe this philosophy also applies to the larger palette of life.
Here are 5 favorite &#8221;a little, a lot&#8221; suggestions to be [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[
It&#8217;s easy to motivate, but much harder to inspire. Motivation is exciting, often short-lived, and tells you what and how&#8230; True inspiration is encouraging, often long-lasting, and teaches you what and why&#8230; Aspire to Inspire!

		<description><![CDATA[True contentment and serenity are matters of the heart. We cannot think them into place; try as we might.

		<description><![CDATA[Whatever it is that makes you happy; trips your trigger; brings you joy and excitement; puts a smile on your face; energizes you; makes your heart beat faster; makes your soul sing; makes you feel alive&#8230;
Whatever it is&#8230;
Do that. 
Do it today, do it tomorrow, and keep doing it like there is no tomorrow.

The &#8221;happiest&#8221; and most &#8220;successful&#8221; folks out there have found this elusive balance. It&#8217;s a goal toward which we all should strive.

Elbert Hubbard said, &#8220;To avoid criticism, do nothing, say nothing, and be nothing.&#8221;

&#8220;That&#8217;s good advice. If you look me (Hooper) up in Google or elsewhere, you&#8217;ll see there are plenty of people who think I&#8217;m full of it. So what?&#8221;

		<description><![CDATA[It takes a certain amount of self-control to remain simple. A lot of people tend to complicate their lives by reaching for lofty internal expectations while often buckling to shallow external situations. They then attempt to medicate and soothe the resulting disappointment by setting up more distractions disguised as &#8220;to-do&#8217;s.&#8221;

A person looks for things they&#8217;ve lost whereas one searches for something they&#8217;ve yet to find. Looking is to retrieve and is largely external. Searching is to discover and is largely internal. We have [...]]]></description>
