15 Beautiful Quotes For Today & Tomorrow

The two most common elements in the world are hydrogen and stupidity. Yesterday is history. Tomorrow is a mystery. Today is a gift. That’s why we call it the “present”. A person who never makes mistakes never makes anything. In the end, it’s not the years in your life that count. It’s the life in your years. Knowledge talks, wisdom listens. The best things in life are not the things. Go as far as you can see, and when you get there you will see farther. A smile is a curve that sets everything straight. You never lose by loving. You always lose by holding back. He who finds a faithful friend, finds a treasure. Today is the first day of the rest of your life. "Silence is a friend who will never betray." – Confucius "Weakness of attitude becomes weakness of character." – Albert Einstein However long the night, the dawn will break.

How To Keep Your Passion For Blogging Going

This is not an uncommon phenomenon. Most bloggers do not feel the same passion about blogging as they did when they had just started and ultimately end up following the "I QUIT" route.

People feel a certain compulsion to follow these so called 'RULES OF BLOGGING' and here lies the reason for their lack of interest. Let me clarify this statement with an example. We all enjoy reading classics. If we find a book interesting, we generally tend to devour it within a couple of days, even if it means reading till late
