8 Character Traits That Poison Family Life Not everyone is blessed with a good character. Every person has a unique personality and has his or her own understanding of how to deal with difficulties. It’s often easier to come to a resolution in an argument if the involved people agree to treat each other with respect and pave a path towards compromise instead of creating unbearable conditions due to their disagreeable behavior. Bright Side tried to figure out which personal character traits are unhelpful when it comes to conflict resolution. 8. A habit of making decisions for two Although it can sometimes be really nice to have someone solve all of your problems and allow you not to have to worry about anything, it’s not always a sign of love. If someone makes all of the decisions for you all of the time and doesn’t take your opinion into account, it’s worth asking yourself if this person really cares about you or if he or she just feels the need to dominate. 7. A wish

15 Tipping Points For 2018 To Make Life Easier These below are far from resolutions, they are more or less aids in making you change your lifestyle and also your ideology. Most time we might not know this but we are own banes and we are the ones who use our actions and ideologies to limit ourselves in life. We use fear, self doubt, over/under doing things to stop the blessing and awesomeness life has to offer us. If you start doing these things mentioned below i can guarantee you that by the end the year you’d end up laughing with no major regrets. 1. Question yourself, and honor your doubt. People who aren’t secure enough to do this stagnate. 2. Be willing to live the way other people won’t, so you can live the way other people can’t. 3. Learn how to budget your money in a way that makes you feel responsible and liberated, not restricted. 4. Be friends with different types of people.

Approved by Scientists: Your Birth Month Influences Your Health and Character Modern science proved that the planets have no influence on our lives. However, some recent investigations show that the season in which we are born influences our lives and health. How does the season of our birth influence our lives? What are the things people born in autumn, summer, spring, or winter should pay attention to? These are the questions that we tried to answer. As a bonus, you can find out the most popular professions according to birth month. Throughout the year, women get different amounts of solar light. Scientists from Budapest think that a lack of solar light may influence a child’s development in the mother’s womb. Surprisingly, the birth month influences the level of dopamine and serotonin — the happiness and good mood hormones. Together with that, researchers at Alicante University, Spain, defined the connection between the birth month of a person and a disposition to 27 chronic

7 Funny Things About Laughter It’s true — laughter is the best medicine. In an instant it can improve mood, increase energy, decrease pain and reduce stress. Yet for such a powerful healing tool, scientists know very little about it. Neuroscientist Sophie Scott from the University College London’s Institute of Cognitive Neuroscience has spent a good deal of her career studying laughter and has come to the conclusion that much of what we think we know about laughter is wrong. In a recent TED talk, “Why We Laugh,” Scott often gets the giggles when she explains the science of laughter and fills us in on what’s really happening with each chuckle and guffaw. Here are some fun facts from the video and from her many interviews that you probably never knew about laughter. 1. Couples who laugh together stay together. In her TED talk, Scott describes an experiment conducted by psycho-physiologist Robert Levinsen in which the scientist brought married couples into the lab and m

9 Amazing Examples of How We Influence Our Brains The human brain is probably the most mysterious organ in our body. Scientists constantly learn new facts about its work, but it still hides lots of secrets. We decided to acquaint you with the brightest discoveries of the last few years in the field of brain research. They will surely surprise you. 9. Chronic lack of sleep worsens memory. Scientists from the University of California at Berkeley have found convincing proof that a lack of sleep can worsen memory and cause Alzheimer’s. During a full night’s sleep, brain cells remove toxic compounds dangerous for our brain. If a person never gets enough sleep, it has a devastating effect on their brain cells. 8. Prolonged stress destroys the brain. A decrease in memory, in the ability to learn, in self-control — these are the consequences that chronic stress is fraught with. In addition, it contributes to a person feeling irritation, anxiety, tension, and often being

11 Types of Texting Behavior That Show a Person Is Lying to You People think that it is easier to tell lies while texting. In this case, we don’t have to look an interlocutor in the eyes, and we don’t see each other’s facial expressions, confusion, or fear.
