THE LEARNING HUB: How Can I change my life completely and make it interesting

1 Talk to people not to improve but to observe and understand. 2 Dedicate at least half an hour to exercise, half an hour to hobby, half an hour for self-improvement each day. 3 Spend at least one hour of early morning time in acquiring knowledge or walking and enjoying the smooth winds outside. 4 Write a schedule for each day, make a checklist of all important activities, make sure you check most of them before falling asleep. 15 minutes: Introspect your day and identify scope of improvement.

THE LEARNING HUB: Some Tips To Have A Healthy Relationship

Never underestimate the value of asking your partner how his day went. Some fights are just fights. They don't have to be deal brakers. Not all disagreements means that things are all over. All cuples fight but it's how you resolve it that counts Schedule time for yourselves. There is no need to fill your social calendar up every weekend with group events or trips. Take things easy and pencil in a visit to the cinema or a picnic in the park just for the two of you. More “ I love you “ are better than fewer. Nobody gets tired of hearing that they are loved. You really can't say it too often. Kiss hello before doing anything else when you get home. Kiss good bye when you leave Respond to each other's texts, calls… no screening when it comes to your significant other. If he needs to get in touch for whatever reason that should be priority.
