Estas Tonne offers some of the most beautiful guitar music I have heard. His skill is amazing and his videos seem to have a sort of simple aspect to them making it more of a backyard sort of impression. Great music can happen anywhere kind of feeling!
He seems to have be pushing the concept of beauty in the world. Music must only be played and heard. It is to be enjoyed by all people and there is a story within the notes.

Building in Rest Periods While Working Out by Changing Things Up
Working out is great for your body and many of us enjoy it regularly. We run into the problem when our bodies get stiff and worn out. While sometimes it makes sense to sort of work through these problems other times it is wiser to take the day off by doing something else. Thus you are not taking the day off of a workout but only doing something that uses different muscles allowing your body's sore spots to rest.
These are a few things that pop up when I know I need to adjust my workout
1.Soreness over a couple of days. Your body should nearly recover between workouts.
2. Tiredness. Your body gets tired and you feel like you need more sleep.
3. Stiffness. When your body feels stiff and hard to stretch.
What I do on these days, every three days or so, is to engage in a different type of activity such as walking, hiking, kickboxing, biking, or swimming. Because you don't do this often your body changes and adjusts these sports and turns workout gains into functional muscle that improves your overall health while adding to your quality of life..

Going Back to Your Fundamentals To Ensure You are Giving the Right Signals To Your Horse
Training and working with horses is not easy and takes a lot of time and effort. One of the way I go back and check on my fundamentals is to ensure that as a rider I'm giving the proper signals to my horse. Watching videos helps me do this fairly easy task. If you do it wrong it will impact you. I was playing polo a month ago and couldn't figure out why my reigns kept slipping when they got moist. I think noticed my grip was wrong. :)

What is a Sustainable Economy?
A perpetual sustainable economy is an important part of rejuvenating the U.S. to a system that continues to get stronger year after year. Much has changed over the past 30-40 years and we see that our system has lost some of its economic power and abilities. To return to an upward trajectory we have to think about what it means to be a sustainable economy that continue to grow. A few thoughts below are included for mental digestion.
-Produces Sufficient Tax Revenue: Produces enough tax revenue to pay for large scale improvements, governance, encouraging of work skills, public services and general improvement in the environment. Tax revenue should be able to cover expenditures.
-Investment: Draws enough investment to maintain the area and continue to improve it. That doesn't mean each area must grow but that each area should have enough capital influx to develop and maintain itself.
-Social/Economic Justice: A system of governance that is fair, an economic model that encourages the highest levels of economic activity from all stratus of society, and a general believe that everyone is part of the same community. Each person should be treated fairly under the system and given equal consideration.
-Education, Open Mindedness, and Innovation: Has access to higher education institutions that produce skilled innovative workers, a culture that is open to new ideas and converts them into working philosophies, as well as innovative mindsets that ensure the system develops and rejuvenates.
-Infrastructure: Solid infrastructure that allows the transference of information, resources, product facilities, shipping, and a high quality of life.
-Brand: A city brand that is attracts skilled workers and comes to represent the products produced in the area. Collaborative efforts between government and business is helpful.
-Resources: Cities will need access to certain resources that are not far removed from the products they produce.
-Technology: Continuously takes new technology and integrates into its system. While this seems similar to innovation there are some markets that don't have access to the technological abilities of others.

Cardio Kickboxing Routine that will Make Your Heart Pump
I came across this video that works very well in getting your heart rate up while still teaching you a little about kick boxing. While the skills are not really designed for those who want to learn correct form and more they can help strengthen those muscles and create the coordination that leads to better boxing practices.

Why Diligence is the Main Factor for Success
Success and failure is based on our ability to compete and succeed in our environment. We should not define that success by money alone but by the many different talents and goals that we desire to achieve. If we have something in our mind and focus our efforts diligence will be the ultimate determinant of our success.
If we continue to work toward our goals, and not deter from them, success will be had. No doubt our environment and our skills play a factor but it is our ability to push forward that wins out over the decades. We may not succeed at first but in the end the day will be ours as we discover resources and gain new talents.
The true test of a persons resilience is to find a noble goal and work towards it through many different life events and distractions. We are so focused on our money and trivial things that we forget there is a higher value position out there that we can chase.
For me, shallow things like money can be part of the process but are not a great goal in and of themselves. We can't take it with us when we leave this earth but can use it as a tool for other things. For example, if you were a scientist being independently wealthy might have its advantages in freeing you to pursue your goals.
If you were a billionaire you may also be a philanthropist that seeks to be a patron to the arts, enhance science, develop the human mind, or many other lofty pursuits. Your wealth becomes a tool and continued increasing of wealth can have a positive impact on society.
We know that life is going to throw us curve balls that will ultimately temporarily derail us. Those who are most likely to succeed in school, life, career, and with themselves are those that keep going. They get back on the path and continue to work toward the things that truly interest them. The put their housekeeping in good order and get back to work diligently.
