The Importance of Breakfast: Starting Off With Better Nutrition

Eating breakfast gives you a mental advantage. When you start off your day, your bo

dy needs fuel. “Glycogen stores start to deplete. If you haven’t had any food, by lunch you’ll start to feel fatigued,” says Kraus, adding that cognitive studies, particularly on children, tell us what happens if you don’t eat — you lose focus and concentration as well as the ability to think and problem-solve.

“Without eating breakfast, you’re more vulnerable to cravings and less likely to make healthy choices in the morning and throughout the day,” says Kraus. That’s a disaster — whether you’re on a diet or just eating for good health.

One study that tracked nearly 10,000 young people from adolescence into their twenties found that not only did skipping breakfast lead to being overweight, but people who missed out on their morning meal also increased their eating at fast food restaurants, and both unhealthy behaviors caused them to gain weight.

Take care of facial hair. This ensures a fine facial structure and clean look. Keep your eyebrow lines neat, upper lip hair and chin hair groomed. To trim eyebrows

, meet with a professional who can wax or pluck your eyebrows. They really do the best job, and will make sure that you don't take too much off, as this can lead to problems in the future. If you want to do it yourself, take a wash cloth soaked in hot water and press it onto the area where you are about to remove the hair. Then remove the few stray hairs with tweezers. Do this every night before bed for best results.

Don't touch ur face.....

Don't touch your face. Many people have bad habits of messing with acne or leaning their face on their hands. Your hands have oils on them that will clog pores, increas

ing blemishes. No matter how tempting it might be, don't pop pimples or interfere with anything facial- though it may seem like it will make it better, it actually makes it much worse and instead of dealing with a two day pimple you now have a two week long project. A tip here is changing your pillow case often- the oils linger on the fabric, getting on your face during the night.

Learn English Very Fast........

Learning English can be a frustrating process. Many students don’t know how to learn English properly or quickly. As a result, they waste days, weeks, or years struggling to improve. Typically, their progress is slow and painful.

However, there are 3 easy steps that any student can take to accelerate their English learning. These steps produce faster results and a more enjoyable learning process.

1. Focus On Input, Not On Output
Most English students and teachers focus on language output- on speaking and writing activities. Yet, research shows that the key to excellent speaking is actually input-- listening and reading.

To learn much faster, students should spend most of their time on input activities. They should listen to understandable and interesting English audio as much as possible.

Using this method, listening skills will rapidly improve. Surprisingly, speaking also improves more quickly when students focus on listening rather than on speech practice.

2. Stop Studying Grammar
Analytical grammar study simply does not work. Countless research studies show that grammar study is ineffective and inefficient. Yet, grammar-based activities form the bulk of instruction at most schools.

Grammar is best learned naturally and intuitively through meaningful input activities. Listening to correct grammar repeatedly is the best possible way to improve-- not by studying grammar rules. Learning grammar subconsciously in this way has been shown to be the fastest method for improvement.

3. Repeat More And Go Slowly
A surprising key to faster learning is to go more slowly. In schools, students often rush through their textbooks. As a result, they never learn the material deeply. Nothing is mastered. The material never leaves short-term memory.

Research shows that constant repetition and review produces faster and better results. Students should repeat audio lessons, for example, as many as 50 times before moving to the next lesson.

This kind of repetition produces deep learning that forever remains in long-term memory.

By following these three easy steps, any English student can dramatically improve their learning speed.
