Life Lessons From A Bumblebee: Fly Anyway

1:00 PM

When people tell you your wings are too small, flap them and fly anyway.

Life Lessons From A Bumblebee: Fly Anyway

They say that the bumblebee is not supposed to fly. It is not physically capable of flying.

The bumblebee's wing size is not big enough to support its body and make flying possible.

Experts argue. Science keeps on proving facts and debunking myths.

But, the bumblebee in all its glory flies anyway.

Flapping its plain and feeble looking tiny wings and reaching heights experts used to believe it will never reach, the bumblebee defies physics and flies on.

Despite what the naysayers, doubters, critics and the pros say, the bumblebee minds its own business; flying triumphantly, hopping from one lovely flower to another, sucking sweet nectar, playing its part in the beautiful circle of life, making the world a little more colorful by defying the odds.

The bumblebee does what everyone else says it couldn't and shouldn't do.

Because the bumblebee couldn't care less about what others think. Well, they couldn't hear or understand science but you get the picture.

I could--for the lack of a better word---be jealous of the bumblebee.
How I wish I couldn't hear or understand what the "experts" say about what I can and cannot do.

I could be reaching heights I never thought I could.
I could be doing things I never thought I'd be able to do.
I could be accomplishing incredible things.

But, no. I listen to people who plant doubt in my heart.

"Yeah, right. That's the dream. Dream on."
"Who told you you can? Look at yourself."
"You're too dumb for that."

Bumblebee, you don't know how lucky you are!

Here's the good news for us who are not as lucky as the bumblebee: it's never too late! It's okay to start over.

It is never too late to be what you might have been (George Eliot).

I can still do what the bumblebee does; fly even though people tell me I can't.
I'll pursue my purpose.
I'll be an essential part of the circle of life, making the world a little more beautiful with what I do.

It's time to heed the lesson the bumblebee has been teaching us since it flapped its wings from day one and showed the critics how wrong they were.

Who are the "experts" in your life?

Who are those people who tell you "you can't do it"?

Your parents
Maybe they are your parents who belittle your dreams. Sometimes they don't mean it. They maybe trying to protect you from heartache and disappointments. They just don't know how to say it right.

You have to understand that they might have gotten this from their parents too. Look at the culture they grew up in. Consider the condition and situation where they were raised.

Your teacher
Maybe it's your teacher who told you you're not good enough or you're slow.

You're not alone. In 1895, Albert Einstein’s teacher told his father: “It doesn’t matter what he does, he will never amount to anything.”

Einstein, like the bumblebee didn't listen to that expert and flapped his wings and flew anyway.

Do you know who that teacher was? I bet you don't.
But, who hasn't heard of Einstein's name? He put a dent in this world. 😉

Your boss
Maybe your boss told you that you will never be successful. If you look up to that person as he's an expert in your field, you may believe him.

But his opinion does not define you. He's just as human and imperfect as you are.

Continue to learn, improve and train. It's good to be self-aware. Know your limitations. Know what you need to develop. Get better every day.

All the experts were once newbies.

Maybe once in their lives they also wanted to fly but someone cut their wings off.

Trolls
You maybe pouring your heart out and spending hours of your precious time writing an article, creating videos, finishing your arts, and then a troll saw it and tell you the most hurtful comments you've heard.

These are noises. They are definitely not experts and not worth giving your time.

Hurting people hurt people. It is sad but that's the reality.

Where are your wings?

What are you good at?
What is the one thing that you really want to do?

Flap your tiny wings.

Make do of whatever little it is that you have.

What are your gifts? Your talent, your skills, your creativity, your wit, the passion in your heart---they are all that you need to bring you places.

Of course, you need to fuel them with faith. Know if your dreams are really yours and not those of others for you.

They maybe little for the doubters' and naysayers' eyes, and in the years of listening to them, their size may have shrunk in your eyes too.

Use them anyway.

What if David saw his weapon the way onlookers saw it?

"That's all you have? A sling and five stones? They're good for fending off animals and protecting your sheep. But they're no match to this mighty giant. Get real! Go back to being a shepherd."

They wouldn't have defeated the Philistines.

If he changed his weapon to a sword, he might have not won. Because those were not his "wings".

David may look like a loser to soldiers but he did what he's good at...and eventually became a king.

Whose wings are you using?

Is that really what you want and not what your parents wish you would do?
Is it really what you expect to do and not what society dictates you?
Do you want to do it because everybody's doing it and you're scared to be the odd one out?

If you're about to give in to peer pressure, remember these words from Rick Warren:

Those who follow the crowd usually get lost in it.

woman with pink umbrella jumping high against yellow wall

Flap your plain and feeble looking tiny wings.

Prove the doubters wrong.

More importantly, prove it to yourself. For you are your own worst critic.

It's hard to shake off the negativity if it's inside your head 24/7. Change the movie playing in your head.

In reality, you are the only one stopping you from reaching your dreams.

The critics' words are just words. It's up to you if you will let it become your reality.

The bumblebee did not let science define his destiny. He let his heart direct him.

Just be.
Just do.
Just fly.

Defy the odds.

Like that little bumblebee, ignore what they say and fly anyway.

3 Famous Historical Places In Mumbai To Explore

famous historical places in Mumbai which one must visit

3 Famous Historical Places in Mumbai To Explore

1. Gateway of India
One of the important architectural and historical stops, Gateway of India secures its place among the most visited monuments in Mumbai.
Constructed since 1924, this approximately 83 feet tall building stands high on Apollo Bunder overlooking the Arabian Sea. The entire monument is built with yellow basalt and solid concrete.
The monument symbolizes the commemoration of the visit of King George V and Queen Mary to India in 1911. Not only this, the monument is also the centre of attraction because this was the way which last British Force adopted to depart from India forever.

Near to this place, you can find Taj Hotel which is another biggest tourist attraction in Mumbai. Because the monument is situated near the Taj Mahal Hotel, it is also called as Taj Mahal of Mumbai. To visit this monument, there is no specific timing; it is open 24/7 for everyone.
However, if you want to enjoy the cool breeze and pleasant weather, you are suggested to visit there post monsoon. Boating and ferry rides are also available which add to the excitement of the place.

2. Prince of Wales Museum Built in the early 20th century, this splendid Indo-Saracen structure is regarded as one of the most significant and Grade I heritage buildings of the city. It was named after Prince Wales who visited India in 1905.
On November 11, 1905, the foundation of this museum was laid by the Prince Wales and was inaugurated on January 10, 1922 by Lady Lloyd, the wife of Governor of Bombay. This museum is also known as Chhatarpati Shivaji Maharaj Vastu Sangrahalaya.

Spread over 3 acres land and surrounded by a garden of palm trees and formal flower beds, the museum is located in the centre of the South Mumbai and reveals more than 50,000 ancient artworks, sculptures and artefacts dating back from the Harappan sites, Indian and European paintings, porcelain and ivories from China and Japan, etc. and is divided into three sections- National History, Art and Archaeology.
It is located at MG Road in South Mumbai. You can visit here at any time of the year. However, it remains closed on Public Holidays. Every day, a 20 minutes show is conducted here in English and Marathi language which depicts the content history and other details related to the museum.

3. Elephanata Caves
Among the most enigmatic heritage sites in India and about 10 kilometers east of Gateway Of India stands Elephanta Caves. It is also one of the UNESCO heritage sites and represents the diorama of the Hindu and Buddhist culture.
There are carved out stone sculptures inside the caves which showcase the syncretism of Hindu and Buddhist ideas and iconography. The caves are believed to be dated between 5th and 9th century.

To reach there, you have to go hire a ferry from Gateway of India. Since Mumbai welcomes end number of tourists every day, there are chances of not getting the ferry to sail across the sea to reach the destination.
Another way to reach the caves is going through the suburban local rail network. You can board on a local train from wherever you are in Mumbai and board off at CST Station. At the caves, you can enjoy boating also. The place is closed on all Mondays and visiting hours are between 9 AM and 5 PM on all the other days.

Wrapping it up

Mumbai has come a long way from being just a city to a city with immense history immersed in it. Therefore, it is not possible to appreciate the beauty of a city if you soak yourself in opulence and grandeur by just visiting the famous historical places in Mumbai. You should know the history, culture and historical significance of its renowned places to fathom the greatness of the city.
In the modern times, Mumbai has become India’s one of the well-established city which is packed with lots of historical sites and tourist destinations in hidden corners or even ordinary locations of the city.
Here are a few more historical attractions that have a long history attached to them: Mahim Fort, Kanheri Caves, Mount Mary Church, Asiatic Library, Siddhivinayak Temple etc.

Visit these exquisite places with your friends and family!

When The Devil Tries Too Hard

10:29 PM

When The Devil Tries Too Hard

It is when I’m close to reaching my goal, feeling joyful, or planning a promising project, when the devil tries too hard to steal my happiness.

I’ve read somewhere that you’ll know if you’re really close to your dreams when the devil is working double time to delay you, discourage you, and make you quit. He tries to take away everything important to you to distract you.

Sometimes he even sends people---friends, relatives, significant other into our lives to distract us. Be careful what and with whom you are spending most of your time with.

Ask yourself, is this a distraction or a blessing? Are they bringing you closer to your dreams or are they pulling you away?

Remember: you are made to do great things.

The enemy doesn’t have to do anything major to stop you. He only needs to take your eyes off of God. What happens next is up to you.

When the devil tries too hard, always find the strength to stand up again and shake it off.

Despite your weakness and vulnerability, God won’t let His child be defeated.

"That is why, for Christ’s sake, I delight in weaknesses, in insults, in hardships, in persecutions,

in difficulties. For when I am weak, then I am strong." - 2 Corinthians 12:10

The devil would usually take away the things that you’ve been holding closest to your heart. This is to break your spirit and make you turn away from God.

Remember that when you have God, you have everything you need. God will always provide you of what you NEED.

As a mere mortal, I am flawed. I admit that sometimes, I let bad things discourage me.

When you lose a loved one,
when an investment failed,
when a plan didn't go as expected,
when someone hurt you,

It's easy to question God's presence. No wonder a lot of people turn their backs from faith.

I’m sure he’s laughing so hard just by watching me fail and feel lost.

But in the end, I realized that it’s really up to you if you let him win.

You can either look at things from a victim’s perspective or with victor’s mindset.

Don't let loneliness be your destination. Let it only be part of your journey; to hone you, to make you stronger.

No matter how hard it gets, or how many distractions the devil tries to throw your way, don’t take your eyes off God.

The next time you’re feeling weak, just remember that you are an inch closer to your dreams and victory.

Why do you think the devil tries so hard? He knows he’s losing the battle, that’s why.

Bible verses to help you get through the tough times

When the devil tries too hard, remember these passages:

I will repay you for the years the locusts have eaten--the great locust and the young locust, the other locusts and the locust swarm--my great army that I sent among you. --- Joel 2:25
After Job had prayed for his friends, the LORD made him prosperous again and gave him twice as much as he had before. --- Job 42:10
The LORD will keep you from all evil; he will keep your life. --- Psalm 121:7
I can do all things through Christ Who strengthens me. --- Philippians 4:13
Because you know that the testing of your faith develops perseverance. ---James 1:3
These trials will show that your faith is genuine. It is being tested as fire tests and purifies gold--though your faith is far more precious than mere gold. So when your faith remains strong through many trials, it will bring you much praise and glory and honor on the day when Jesus Christ is revealed to the whole world. ---1 Peter 1:7
The LORD is my shepherd; I have all that I need. --- Psalm 23:1
Rescue me from my enemies, O LORD. I come to you for protection. ---Psalm 143:9
For he will order his angels to protect you wherever you go. ---Psalm 91:11
God, your God, will restore everything you lost; He'll have compassion on you; He'll come back and pick up the pieces from all the places where you were scattered.

No matter how far away you end up, God, your God, will get you out of there and bring you back to the land your ancestors once possessed. It will be yours again.

He will give you a good life and make you more numerous than your ancestors.

God, your God, will cut away the thick calluses on your heart and your children's hearts, freeing you to love God, your God, with your whole heart and soul and live, really live.

God, your God, will put all these curses on your enemies who hated you and were out to get you. And you will make a new start, listening obediently to God, keeping all his commandments that I'm commanding you today.

God, your God, will outdo himself in making things go well for you: you'll have babies, get calves, grow crops, and enjoy an all-around good life.

Yes, God will start enjoying you again, making things go well for you just as he enjoyed doing it for your ancestors. But only if you listen obediently to God, your God, and keep the commandments and regulations written in this Book of Revelation.

Nothing halfhearted here; you must return to God, your God, totally, heart and soul, holding nothing back. This commandment that I'm commanding you today isn't too much for you, it's not out of your reach.

It's not on a high mountain - you don't have to get mountaineers to climb the peak and bring it down to your level and explain it before you can live it. And it's not across the ocean - you don't have to send sailors out to get it, bring it back, and then explain it before you can live it. --- Deuteronomy 30:3-13

Finding Solutions To Planning A Family Trust

9:07 PM

Finding Solutions to Planning a Family Trust
Thorny Problems and Solutions All of us at one time or another in our life reach a dead-end road. We are trying to find solutions to something, but we find we are not making any headways in closer to a solution.
For example, in making an estate or trust plan, there are many things to consider. Leaving something or someone out of your project can cause anxiety or lack of enthusiasm to move forward with planning.
At times like this, it is good to consider getting outside help and a square-headed advisor who is a professional.
Estate Planning Professionals Estate planning is needed as part of planning your final days, and you want to find the right people to help you. Often, those making these decisions will turn to an advisor. There are professional trust advisors available to help with these estate plans.
For example, there is a dynasty trust by Anderson Advisors. Anderson Advisors has helped many clients plan all the details of their final estate and how it will be divided among family members.

Correcting Mistakes Nothing is perfect in life. When we plan, we often make mistakes. The reason a trusted advisor is important is that they are trained in final preparations and know the legal information that will affect our planning.
If we have made a mistake in our planning, it will be noticed by our professional advisor when we show them our plans.
Making a family trust without mistakes would require us to be professional estate planners. It is much easier to give the heavy lifting of all the details to our trusted financial advisor.

Thinking Through Our Legacy When it is time to plan our family legacy and how we will be remembered, as you gather all of the information of your estate and assets, you begin to have more questions than answers. What is a trust?
What is the difference between a revocable and irrevocable trust? Then there are the unique needs and spendthrift trusts which you plan to use but don't know enough about.
What to do? Then you find that setting up a trust and going through a probate court to establish a beneficiary of your assets may require months or years.
It dawns on you that seeking an advisor is the logical solution to getting the right ideas that will allow you to make the right decisions.

Free Estate Planning Help There is plenty of help that is free on the internet, and you could do a Google search for "estate planning" and get plenty of free advice. Alternately, you can visit your local bank branch, which usually has financial advisors trained in estate planning.
Making a phone call to your local bank will give you an understanding about what their process is and what documents you will need to get started.

Visiting a Local Library Visiting a local library can be an excellent resource in getting the latest information on estate planning or getting a trust made.
Your local librarians are trained in helping library patrons find the information they need. A librarian will make sure you find the most recent information you need to make a decision.

Talking to Friends Do you have friends who have planned a trust or will? Speaking with someone you can trust or have a common interest as a close friend or relative will allow you to get a perspective of what you want to do.
Once you share with someone, the other person can share their solution to solving a big problem like estate planning. Of course, there is no guarantee they will have an answer or that they will understand what you are trying to do, but a compassionate ear in finding a needed solution will prove very helpful.
Deciding on how to distribute your assets equitably throughout the family, and creating a legacy trust, may require speaking to a tax professional or legacy trust advisor.

When Obstacles Show Themselves There are times in life where you need to make decisions about trimming all the details in your life and settling accounts with everyone.
Estate planning only takes place once in a lifetime. Knowing the essentials can help you make the right decisions. Presently, you are at a crossroad because you only have so many assets. You are planning to spread them around to members of your immediate family.
You want to leave them a little something of your legacy.

Technology

What's The Best Type Of Car Battery?

7:27 PM

What's the Best Type of Car Battery?

The Top Types of Car Battery

An optima battery is the best type. More specifically, look for 34/78 RedTop Optima batteries. They're versatile, able to withstand the rough and tumble of regular cars, frequently used SUVs and even hot rods (any car with a regularly sized alternator). The batteries use SpiralCell technology to ensure a powerful start, including in extremely cold weather. They are easy to install, last twice as long and are maintenance-free. They also have 15 times more vibration resistance than a typical battery does.

In second place are the ACDelco Advantage batteries. They were designed with the Toyota Prius in mind and work great with all Prius vehicles. Another excellent battery is the Mighty Max, and it's a solar battery. It powers cars, boats, tools, solar energy generators and more. It's rechargeable and works well in both hot and cold temperatures. It's also a breeze to install.

Now, a return to Optima for the D35 YellowTop battery. Like its RedTop counterpart, it's 15 times more vibration resistant, easy to install and maintenance-free. It uses SpiralCell and helps cars start great regardless of the weather.

Battery Checks

Many people are not sure how to check car battery. Early signs of a dying battery include a slowly cranking engine, a dashboard warning light, a swollen battery and a radio that doesn't turn on. Many auto parts stores will check your battery for free.

You can also test a battery on your own, ideally twice a year. Use a multimeter to measure voltage. A healthy battery should be about 13.7 to 14.7 volts when the engine is running. If you don't have a multimeter, turn on the car and your headlights. Look at the lights' strength. Dim lights indicate a battery that needs to be replaced soon.

Tips for the Best Batteries

Regardless of the battery type you buy, there are several steps you should take.

Buy a battery less than 3 months old (6 months is OK if necessary).
Review the best types regularly, as they do tend to change from year to year.
Consult your owner's manual or a store associate to ensure you get a battery that works well with your vehicle.
Check your battery twice a year, especially if you live in the South (batteries there don't last quite as long as they do in the north).
Look for warranties with generous free-replacement periods.

Batteries may qualify for cheap prices on auto parts in some stores, so look for sales when you're shopping. However, do keep the above points in mind. The younger your battery is, the longer it should last once it is installed in your car.

Is A Career In Healthcare Right For You?

11:09 PM

Is a Career in Healthcare Right for You? written about teaching

Is Healthcare Growing or Shrinking?

The good news is that in most areas of healthcare, there’s a clear expanding demand. Whether from local residents in cities with growing populations that use nearby clinics for affordable healthcare or hospitals needing reliable registered nurses (RNs) to work in a specialist care ward; healthcare is not shrinking.

That might surprise you with all you might have heard recently about medical tourism, yet it’s not having a huge effect on the industry as a whole. Why is that? Because the U.S. population is aging.

The baby boomer generation is mostly retired now and over the age of 65. People tend to get sicker as they age, so the demand on healthcare facilities only grows with an aging population.

As such, while there is some medical tourism evident in younger sections of the population, that’s less the case with older people who might not be able to travel when sick or feel safer seeking healthcare in a country they’ve never set foot in before.

Better Job Security?

In most areas of healthcare, there’s a supply shortage of qualified nurses, doctors, and other medical personnel. Hospitals often cannot hire fast enough to meet demand, which is a growing problem.

For eager staff such as RNs who perform well and are reliable, their job security should be far more assured than when working in other professions. That’s even truer when comparing nursing (or other healthcare-related jobs) to ones which are at serious risk of being outsourced abroad.

Whilst technology can make life easier and reduce the number of steps necessary with certain types of care, nothing replaces having enough nurses on the ward to provide the required medical care to patients in need.

With job security, there are also current concerns over artificial intelligence, automation, and other technology-related innovations. How will they affect the healthcare profession? It’s true that technology is changing healthcare in a meaningful way.

However, it also often improves health outcomes through new innovations rather than taking something away from patient care.

It’s possible that AI could be used to suggest what might be wrong with a patient based on their diagnosis or test results, but that doesn’t remove the need for able doctors or nurses to provide necessary medication.

Flexibility of Where to Work in the U.S. or Abroad?

Given the demand for qualified personnel to work in certain professional positions within the healthcare field, it stands to reason that they’re needed across the States. That’s true in larger cities but also smaller rural communities that often find it difficult to attract the best talent.

For anyone who enjoys small-town living and a greater sense of community, then a nursing role within the community is going to be perfect for them away from the hustle and bustle of big city life.

Sometimes there’s a generous relocation allowance offered to encourage the best talent to move from a different state and join a healthcare organization’s staff too.

The flexibility for nurses is especially good. There are some that have even chosen to be a van dweller, moving to different nursing jobs through the seasons. This is true of Nate Hemann, an RN, who hit the news not long ago with stories about his ownership of a home on wheels.

There’s also an occupational therapist who does the same thing and several female travel nurses have embraced the RV lifestyle for greater flexibility.

How to Get Involved with Healthcare?

The time to study to become a doctor and the debt required to achieve that level is extreme. By contrast, nursing is a common way to get into healthcare. The great thing about nursing is that there’s a clear educational path in this career with nurses able to decide how far they wish to progress.

Studying for an Associate degree in Nursing is one possible step that takes at least a couple of years but provides what is required to work in the profession. Becoming an RN does require an exam and passing the licensing requirements for the state where you’ll be working.

From the registered nurse stage, moving up from an RN to BSN is a matter of taking the BSN degree in nursing, which is longer and more advanced. Still working as an RN, you’ll have access to more senior nursing positions. The RN to BSN in Georgia suits people who plan to stay and work in that state too.

Is the Career Trajectory Positive?

For ambitious nurses, they don’t have to stop with being an RN with an associate degree or even with a higher BSN degree. They can move up from the BSN to study for a master’s in nursing. From there, a Ph.D. is possible too.

Alternatively, at the master’s level, there’s the option to study for a future nursing administrator role. This would move behind the scenes in charge of how the hospital is run to ensure that frontline medical staff have what they need to perform at their best.

Overall, healthcare is an excellent field to go into. There are positive expectations when it comes to job demand, availability and flexibility too. In terms of the roles themselves, you’re free to pick one that matches your skills and preferences.

Additionally, choosing your studies wisely, the doors are opened with greater career options and higher remuneration. With regard to nursing jobs specifically, these offer some interesting choices with specializations like acute care, pediatric care, along with management or administrative career paths too.

A career in healthcare looks positive now and in the future too.

raised hand worshiping in time of uncertainty

Prayer In Time of Uncertainty

Dear God,

Hear my prayer in this time of uncertainty in my life.

I am blinded by the challenges of the present, help me remember that this is a part of your big plan for my beautiful future.

I am discouraged by the uncertainties of things today, remind me that tomorrow is surely wonderful as You are already there.

It is too dark where I'm standing now. I can't see a single thing. I am scared. I am lost.

Hold my hand. For holding Your hands, I know I can do anything.

Help me take a leap of faith. I don't know where I am going to land. But I know for sure that You will be there to catch me.

Help me remember that if You can calm the waves and the raging storm, You can calm the storm in me.

Remind me of the times you did the impossible to save your children in the face of peril and lead them to Your Promise Land.

I may be in the desert today; parched, exhausted, alone, but I have faith that You are here to provide and protect.

Forgive me for forgetting that You are Almighty.

You laid the earth's foundation.
You parted the Red Sea for Your people.
You closed the mouths of hungry lions to save a faithful man.
You made the blind see and the cripple walk.
You raised the dead.

What can you not do for me?

Nothing is too hard for you. Forgive me for doubting.

Awaken my faith. Revive my soul. Raise my dead dreams back to life again, Lord, I beg you.

My future is unclear and uncertain but help me to believe that it is going to be okay.
Because You hold my future in Your hands.

In this time of uncertainty and difficulty, Lord hear my prayer in Jesus' name.

Amen.

Tips To Prolong The Life Of Your Appliances

Tips to Prolong the Life of Your Appliances

Keep them Clean

Keeping your appliances clean not only extends their lifespan but it also keeps them at peak performance. Cleaning is also essential for the health and safety of the members of your household. Follow the manufacturers and experts guidelines when cleaning your appliances. Use the right products and procedures to avoid ruining them. If you are not up to the task, look up appliance cleaning services in your area.

Don’t Overload or Overwork

When you overload or overwork your appliances, you increase wear and tear, ruin their performance and shorten their lifespan. Thus, avoid giving your dishwasher or washing machine more than it can handle. Don’t forget to check if there are time restrictions on how long you should keep an appliance running. If there is a recommendation to allow for cooling after every 5 minutes and you run the appliance continually for 10 minutes, you will be destroying its parts.

Fix Issues Immediately

Whenever you notice a weird noise, change in appliance efficiency, high utility bills, sparks, odour or any other unusual thing, have the cause of the issue identified and fixed immediately. When an issue is fixed on time, you prevent the damage from getting extensive. Extensive damage costs a lot of money to repair and some could be too extensive for repairs. Damage also weakens the appliance.

You can DIY the repairs where you have the skill and call in a professional for everything else. By working with a professional, the job will be done right and your appliances will last longer. Additionally, a professional can easily detect other issues that may not be readily evident and fix them before they become serious.

Consider Professional Appliance Installation

Whenever you buy a new appliance, consider seeking professional services for installation. Poor installations can lead to appliance damage, injuries to the homeowner and home damage. Experts know the procedures to follow for proper installations, items and tools to use and how to set up the appliance for optimal performance.

However, remember to do some research on every appliance installation or repair company you hire. If you choose the wrong person, the job will not be done right. Evaluate factors such as the experience, reputation and licensing. You can easily find an expert online by using search terms such as “appliance installation near me”.

Buy the Right Appliance Parts

Even with the right care and maintenance, some appliance parts do get worn out, damaged and lost with time. When making replacements, make sure you buy the right product. Most parts normally come with a certain number that you can use when shopping for a replacement. Another factor that is useful when choosing the right parts is the model of the appliance.

Finally, buy your products from the manufacturer or a dealer who is approved to sell those parts. This guarantees that you will get the correct and high-quality product. If you aren’t sure what to buy, call the manufacturer and ask for assistance.

Use Your Appliances for the Right Purpose

Finally, use your appliances correctly. One of the things that will ruin your appliances fast is using them for another purpose other than what they are intended for. Nowadays, there are appliances for most tasks. Thus, you don’t have to use an appliance for another task other than what it was designed for.

You don’t have to use your blender to make coffee and chop nuts when there are a coffee makers and food processors on the market. For the dishwasher and washing machine, use the right cleaning products for your clothes and dishes. The wrong cleaning products will wear out and damage your appliances.

By taking such measures, you will prolong the lifespan of your appliances and save money in the short and long term. Don’t forget about high quality when buying appliances as this too has an effect on the lifespan. Take time to browse different options and choose the ones with the best quality, price and performance.

How To Have A Fulfilling Career In Teaching

How to Have a Fulfilling Career in Teaching

Get a Teaching Degree

Every teacher working in the U.S must have a degree, with many teachers opting to educate themselves at an even higher level with a Masters or Ph.D.
Many teachers aim to earn a degree in any subject before taking an additional teaching course on top of this, enabling them to expand their career options.
However, if you want to open up the the best job prospects available to you, and if you are set on a career in teaching, then there are many specialist teaching degrees available.

Merrimack College offers an elementary education masters online which can build on your prior knowledge of teaching and allow you to specialize.

Find Classroom Experience

After you have reached the education level that you desire, you can then start to consider how you will get the classroom experience that you need to succeed. Many schools offer schemes that allow students and those interested in working with children to go on a placement within the school.
This will allow you to gain the experience and skills that you need in a practical way, from knowing the best practices to teach children, to all elements of childcare.
Many degree courses, however, will have classroom experience combined with the course requirements, meaning that you will be assigned a placement as part of your course.

Apply for the Right Documentation

Every state also requires the right documentation for graduates to work as teachers and with children, and these include licenses and record checks. You must have state certification to work in schools, no matter what your role is.
However, if you are considering working in a private school, you may not have to have these documents as they are outside of state regulations.

Find a Teaching Position

There is a large demand for teachers in the US. You should decide what type of teaching position you want to look for before applying, such as special needs schools, elementary or secondary schools, or religious options.
Most teaching positions are advertised broadly in local newspapers and on job listing websites. The best time to search for a job is during the summer, when the highest majority of staff change-over occurs, and when organizations are particularly streamlined in looking to fill job roles while the school terms have come to an end.

Teaching affords you the opportunity to impart knowledge and wisdom to children, plan lessons and activities, and care for every child in your classroom. Therefore, it can be a superbly rewarding career path to actively pursue.

Best Car Covers For Your Luxury Cars

Inside Safety

The best way to keep any vehicle away from harm is to keep it in a storage facility or garage. While this keeps out UV rays and moisture caused by precipitation, it doesn’t provide the total protection such an expensive investment needs.

The Car Capsul is an excellent way to seal your car from corrosion, dust and debris, no matter where you keep it secure. Its clear dome-like coverage lets everyone see your car in its mint-condition glory, making it perfect for long-term storage that lets you appreciate your mechanical masterpiece.

Take a Seat

Sometimes it’s not the outside of your car you need to worry about. Fresh leather interiors are both comfortable and gorgeous accents, but seats can be a magnet for cracks caused by ultraviolet exposure while dust and mildew can find its way between the cushions.

Custom fit seat covers like those made by CalTrend will both protect the leather and cover any wear that might have already taken place. With leather sheaths, you’ll still get the same look and feel while keeping the original seats in great condition, too.

Full Coverage

When storing your vehicle inside isn’t an option, you need to make sure your luxury car isn’t exposed to nature’s worst. Aside from harmful UV rays, dirt and water, you runt the risk of impacts from falling debris during windstorms or even hail and sleet damage.

Choosing protection like the Superweave car cover is a great option since it is not only an excellent barrier for moisture and dust but its thicker construction makes it very durable against dents and dings. Quick drying times and superior lightweight materials mean you won’t need to wait long to get your favorite toy onto the asphalt, either.

Hitting the Road

Storing your car only protects it when it's not in use. Taking your luxury car out for a drive shouldn’t leave you stressed that it might get some unforeseen wear and scratches thanks to unruly roads.

To protect that precious front end, look into custom made car bras that will shield the nose from bugs, stones and dirt that often get in the way of the perfect drive. This will also add to the stylish look of your vehicle, showing off how much you care about protecting the things you love.

No matter how you store or drive your car, make sure you keep it protected from all hazards both on the road and off. Look for custom car, seat, and bra covers online to find the best deals that will keep your luxury car looking great for years to come!

I love to travel and recently discovered the benefits of a Bluegreen timeshare resale rental online. These are up to 50% off the cost of a typical hotel room. I probably wouldn't buy a timeshare because I wouldn't want to cancel Bluegreen timeshare later with a company like Wesley Financial Group.
