My hair loss treatment journey begun the day I started to discover myself balding. The most obvious thing to do was to seek ways to comb my hair to conceal my bald spot. I began wearing more hats on the weekends as I went out with my wife, friends or family. Walking in to work every morning was a tough experience without my hat on. Your thoughts changes when you are suffering from hair loss. It is so true that you never know what you have until you lose it. That can be true about your hair loss.

As I looked in the mirror I began to appreciate every one of the hair strands I had left. It was as if with each strand of hair I lost, so was a small percent of my confidence gone as well. A acquaintance of mine had the same problem as me. Yet lately he seemed so much more relaxed and I observed that it was as if his hair was growing back. I didn’t wanted to bring it up but after a while I decided to ask. That is when I was recommended to Advanced Hair Studio. My friend Josh told me that he had only had a few treatments and has already started to see some positive results, he not only regrown his hair, but his self-confidence as well. After seeing what Josh has accomplished from Advanced Hair, I decided to pay them a visit.

At first, I was a little skeptical. Results were obvious within a few weeks. Not only on my head, but in my behaviour. I started feeling better about myself and started to lose the caps on the weekends. My wife who has been unhappy about my lack of interest in our relationship began to notice the change in that department as well. It is amazing how just a few consultations to the Advanced Hair Studio had begun to change my life as a whole. I always felt as if the first thing people noticed about me was my bald spot. Now, I am not scared to look people in the eyes again as I have my full set of self esteem back.

Advance Hair Studio has not only given me back a full set of hair, but a big part of my life as well. So, if anyone is going through hair loss I highly recommend them. Don’t let baldness take your self-confidence away.

I used to love when girls stroked or even pulled my hair. However, one morning while I was brushing my teeth, I soon saw the first telltale signals of hair loss: hair was in the sink and noticed that the hair on top of my head was thinning out and less full than the sides of my head. I would never have imagined that I would endure from hair loss: Most of the men in my family have a full head of hair. And yet, as I bent my head to look at the top of my head, I could soon see that hair loss was not just in my future but already occurring.

I felt that I lost my self-confidence, once I noticed the thinning strands. I was self conscious of what people thought of me, I stopped brushing my hair and started wearing caps when I went out. My girlfriend and I weren’t as intimate as we were because I was concerned about her discovering the thinning patch on top of my head. My anxiousness was through the roof and my work performance fell because of my elevated stress levels and inability to concentrate.

Thankfully, I found Advanced Hair Studio. One of my mates told me about them over a few beers. As far as I recalled, he has been bald ever since I knew him. However, one day at the gym, I observed his hair looked full and fresh. He told me that Advanced Hair Studio was to thank.

That very night, I went on-line and ordered my first product and had them delivered overnight. The results were quickly evident: my hair felt stronger and thicker in just a few days. After a month the thinning patch that caused me to worry myself sick was full of hair. I’d never before believed anti-balding products worked. However, after my experience with Advanced Hair Studio, I now know that there are products out there that can save men a lot of stress, grief, and worrying.

I’m going to suggest a simple practice which is a manner of opening up to multi-dimensional perception. You have a sheet of paper that you drew on a circle on. You get another round object that is smaller in circumference than the first circle. You draw that smaller circle in the center of your original circle. If it’s too small, you’ll notice that this won’t work. If you get it too small, then your perception will focus either on one circle or on the other circle. If you get it too largein other words, if the new circle is too much the size of your original circlethen they just blend as a band. You want it not too small and not too large. It sounds like a nursery rhyme. Ideally, the new circle should be about two-thirds the size of the original circle. Then you sit down and you do your gazing practice. What you do is, you’re gazing at both circles at the same time.

You’re seeing them in your field of awareness simultaneously. And you’re not trying to make one or the other disappear. Something really interesting will begin to happen. What happens is that you begin to feel, in your perception, radiance coming out of one circle and going into the other. Now that radiance is a movement of energy that you are perceiving.

Its as if there’s some kind of energy exchange between the two circles. There is an energy exchange between the two circles. The new circle has to be the right size; if you make it a quarter of your original circle, it doesn’t work. If you make it 90% of your original circle, it won’t work either. You want to be somewhere around 65 to 70% of the size of your original circle. In gazing at these two circles, you are actually beginning to feel something like concentric waves. In fact, they will actually begin to expand beyond the outer circle.

We spoke about a circle being a two-dimensional figure, mathematically its x2 + y2=1. If we wanted to make a three-dimensional figure, mathematically it would be x2 + y2 + z2 = 1. We’d have depth there. We would actually have a sphere. We would have dimensional depth there, like a ball, a sphere, or the earth.

Then we go to four-dimensionality, which we call the dimension of time. From the perception of three dimensions, four-dimensionality is like a ball being inflated to its maximum inflation and then deflating and going back to being a one-dimensional dot like the expanding and contracting universe.

When we go to five dimensions, what we’re seeing is not from the perspective of the third, but from the perspective of the fourth. What we are seeing is a vortex, spinning with a center. What we’re doing is that we’re beginning to perceive four-dimensionality going into five-dimensionality.

Between regular monthly bills and unexpected expenses, it seemed I was always off on my budget. As soon as I got my pay, it was already spent. I get lots of bills every month and put them off to the last minute, then dealt with them all in a rush. As a solution I ended up taking over money from the next pay just to make it through. The problem was not related to how much money I made, it’s that I didn’t know how to manage my budget. In the case of any emergency, landed me even further in debt.

Most of us have been in this situation. We try to be careful with our money, but long before the month is over, the money is gone. Paying Off bills is a juggling act that most of us don’t have the time or energy to comprehend. There’s always one bill that was forgotten or delayed, one more expenditure we weren’t consenting for. With school supplies and fees for the kids, groceries, new tyres for the car, and the raising cost of petrol, just making it from paycheck to paycheck is difficult enough; saving money is out of the question. Meantime, debt is quietly piling up. How can I get my budget under control?

I was fortunate to have found a service which will help me manage my money more wisely and take away the tension of paying off monthly bills, letting me focus on the things that really matter to my family. I can ultimately relax not worrying about money, knowing that my monthly budget are in good hands.

The financial planning process:
Usually during your initial consultation, your budget specialist will evaluate all of your current debts and monthly payments to come up with a plan that works for you. They will handle your money, setting aside money for savings, emergencies, and long-term investment, ensuring your family’s financial security. If you are planning a major purchase, this will be figured into your budget so that when you are ready to buy, the money will be there for you.

Your paychecks are typically deposited with your financial planner, and a separate account is set up for your living expenses. Bills and repayments are diverted to your budgeting specialist for payment. There is a chance that your consultant can lower your monthly payments and reduce your outstanding debt by negotiating with creditors. A low monthly fee is assessed for all these services.

For me, the best monthly service my budget specialist provides is peace of mind. No more fuss with bill payment; I know my bills will be paid on time, and that I’ll have money in reservation for life’s little emergencies. My budget is finally under control, thanks to my financial planning service.

We couldn’t believe the radiant Amelia Upton, my high school BFF, could need a collection of wigs. Her trademark hair and fashion flowed in sync with her personality. Get this. The one and only is still known for her trademark toss ‘n turn. Very few know she lives confidently wearing human hair wigs. Guess it’s no secret anymore.

As young girls in our home town of Scottsdale, we once took turns winning Miss “SCH” four years running. But in college her women’s hair loss took its toll and she went bald. I hinted about some lace front wigs. Whatever, she just shaved her head. Undeterred by her hair loss, she proudly showcased her bald-headed look.

At her fiance’s rugby game, we taunted the players till her beau purposefully slapped the puck (or however you say it) towards the fans. Such a sport, she reached out for the thing and her head scarf landed in a beer, revealing her bald head. No big deal, she tossed the ball right back at him. Attitude, did I mention she’s got it?

Of course, everyone has insecurities. Once at our semi-monhtly stroll to the art gallery, when she looked me in the eye and told me that she would rather do without hair out of bitterness. She loved her old hair so much she can’t even look at human hair wigs, despite the fact that she would wear them. At that disclosure, she changed the subject and asked that I drop it. I didn’t know what to say.

There was no way to get her words out of my head. That night, I talked about going shopping with me for a new lace front wig. Eventually we both ended up with an agreement: we were going wig shopping! Wigs for the both of us, on me!

We had a great time, bewildered by the possibilities. We never knew that women’s medical wigs were so prevalent for so many women. These wigs for women’s hair loss complimented her youthful spirit. I built an entirely modern ensemble to wear with our wigs. We do it all together, and that will surely endure. Last Christmas she gave me a photo of us in our wigs and thanked me for her wig, and explained it fosters a lost identity that she’d forgotten. It’s a relief to witness little miss attitude reclaim her beauty. I’m right there with her.

Usually, I bottle things up inside, but dating games don’t “get” me. I finally bottomed out, this week I filed three years of back taxes. During my birthday party that comes from being alone, obviously. You better believe it was great. What does this mean? Actually, that’s when I honestly thought about finding a date in Dallas or Denver.

No problem. I’ll ease back into dating with a professional dating service, Denver Great Expectations. That turned out to be my golden ticket. Prolly wouldn’t be an issue, but it is. When I was a little tipsy at George’s graduation in Dallas this afternoon, Richard wouldn’t get off my back about if I have yet to win the love of my life. They always bring this up, every year. I didn’t want to answer, but then laughed, “what’s your deal, yo?”

Even Cousin Terry kept pressing me on the topic of my personal matters. I joked to the family gang: “Hey look, my romantic destiny is right over there!”

How can they be so rude? They smiled politely. Perturbed, I fell asleep that night just to get some perspective. What a waste of time! I can’t imagine what I was thinking there. Chuck, who wrote to me from Egypt, advised that I enlist in Great Expectations. I said, “Fine, okay.” But it really was a good idea. I am truly grateful for Great Expectations Dallas.

At the time, dating services were a novel thing as I am a simple guy. I was a bit nervous at first, that my hands started sweating. My mess couldn’t bring an end to a great time. The evening was full of crazy-fun mingling. The host was incredible and I’ll always remember the attractive, single women.

It’s been a pleasure to party at these amazing Dallas singles events, I met quite a few winners that obviously feel as excited as I am while being in this kind of fun, sophisticated company. Now I can stop letting anyone give their two cents about me being single at my age. Astoundingly enough, dating with Great Expectations is enjoyable and a remarkably refreshing dating experience.

We are all given a certain level of talents when we are born, some more than others. What it boils down too with this is whether or not you enjoy what you are good at and like what you are truly talented in. When someone has a whole bunch of talent in a specific area but does not love it then it is never going to work out. There is also then someone who will not have that much talent but completely love it and do an outstanding job. If someone is given a talent to cook but does not love to cook, then when that person cooks they will never ever enjoy it, even though the food will be excellent. Then when you take someone who does not have any cooking talents but more drive and love for cooking then you can expect the person to be truly happy and love it to its fullest. It is by and far mission critical to spend your time doing what you truly love. There are so many tasks that have to get done each day that you don’t love, but if the core of it is enjoyed and wanted then great things will happen. The love for something can make up for the lack of talent and for the majority of the time can create better results.

This article describes how your life is what you make of it. If you are willing to work hard to reach your ambitions and goals, there is no reason why should not attain them. In my opinion far too many people try to take short cuts or are too willing to expect free hand outs from other people or have the credit card attitude of buy now, pay later. I hope you enjoy the read.

One of my best friends whose name is Chris turned seventeen around a month before I did. For his birthday his father bought him a very nice and sporty looking car. Chris was very pleased and showed his new present to all his mates including myself. He was unable to take us out for a spin as he had yet to learn to drive. I thought what a great gift it had been and returned home to tell my parents.

I now had it in my head, that I also wanted a car for my birthday. Chris only lived a few doors away from my house and my parents looked out of the window to view his new car. I stated to them that I would love a car for my seventeenth and my parents started to laugh and replied with, I bet you would.

Despite this negative comment, I really believed they were only joking and was convinced that they would not let me down. My birthday arrived and I opened all of their gifts. The main present they had bought me was a pair of trainers. I have to admit they were a quality pair of trainers, however I wondered where they had hidden the car. The car was not hidden, it had not been bought.

An ungrateful young man went to bed, not best pleased. I then started to take driving lessons and on the second attempt managed to pass the driving test. I came home to inform my parents of the good news. My dad congratulated me and seemed proud of my achievement. I stated that I was also very happy, however in reality, what was the point if I had no car to drive. My father did not reply to this comment.

A couple of months later my eighteenth birthday was now approaching. My father told me that because this was quite a big birthday, he was planning to spend a bit more money on my presents this year. He asked me if I had any idea of what I would like. For the second year in a row, I replied that I would love a car. Yet again he laughed and stated that he had said a bit more, not hundreds.

I really believed that because it was in his words, a big birthday, and because I was now legally able to drive, that he would buy me a car. Guess what, he didn’t. Yet again I was not impressed.

I waited a couple of months and then tried the head on approach. I spoke to my parents and told them that I needed a car, they agreed. My dad stated that if I wanted a car, I should go and buy one. I replied that I had no money, and he stated that I should start to save up then.

I started to save and had to sacrifice many things. Eventually I bought a car. It was not exactly sporty but it was my pride and joy. I washed the car every weekend and am sure that I loved it ten times more than Chris loved his car, because I had earned it.

Whenever I want to achieve something in life, I am aware that I have to work very hard and am very grateful to the lesson my parents taught me, even though at the time it seemed harsh and cruel.

Written shortly after Princess Di’s death and published October 1997 in The Other Press.

Princess Di, England’s Rose, is really a rose to many people. The phenomena we saw in the media, on the streets, at British Consulates, all over the world, show just how precious she was. People need to remember this day, this lady, and the vulnerable love and compassion that she displayed in her life and that many of her admirers felt as they came together to mourn her death.

She had qualities that we admired and connected with. She lived her life openly, showed us her human frailties, and hugged lovingly those whose hearts were in need. The pictures televised around the world showed that many of us had taken this opportunity to allow ourselves the freedom to be human, to cry. One television reporter even commented on the openness among the many people who had taken to the streets; people opened up to each other, were more willing to speak up and take time to talk to strangers.

A tragic event should not, although it has, be a catalyst to give us permission to be human and let our true selves free. Is there a new possibility for us all? Can we take the legacy left by Princess Diana and continue to display our compassionate nature, become more forgiving, and live more peaceably? I think we can, if we open our eyes and see what was evident during the ten days or so following her death. As individuals we all have a personal responsibility to do good works and be kind, no matter how small. The lesson to be learned, as hard as it may seem, is to trust our hearts, break down our barriers, and realize the power of human compassion.

Many of us are witnesses to tragedy every day: the homeless, poverty, unemployment, genocide, and war. We feel sympathy towards those that suffer and yet we feel powerless. Some of us even forget to display within our own homes the love and compassion we believe in. That is understandable: We are human and we let our difficult lives get in the way of our true nature, suffocating our ability to display acts of kindness. When we do show acts of kindness to others we feel peaceful, rewarded and happy. This is what society needs on a whole.

We are a society, a world society, with many diverse and fractured sub-cultures, groups and societies, but we are still human first. To that end we can work together, as compassionate human beings, in non-violent ways, with love in our hearts, and bring changes to the world. If you wonder how, look again at the way Princess Diana led her life and touched millions of lives. She gave freely of herself to children, victims of war, and brought people together and crusaded for a better world.

The British media commented on renewed national unity being shown as never before in Britain for Princess Diana’s funeral. Even Ireland mourned her death and felt the loss; a country with a rich history of despising the British and the monarchy. My only wish and hope is that her influence helps us create a stronger global unity. This should be our endeavour, the unity of all humankind.

Each of us has tremendous influence in some aspect, whether it is within the family unit, the community, city, government, school, and so on. We all have minor roles and some of us have larger roles of influence. The power of the individual, unified with others of like minds and hearts has tremendous influence over the direction our futures will take. Not just our futures in our own countries, but those of others who are more in need in other parts of the world. This is how Princess Diana conducted her life, by exercising her influence.

You may ask “what can I do about it?” It really is simple. Take personal responsibility for the conduct of your own life and the relationships you have. Most of us already do take personal responsibility and set a good example within our families and social groups. That itself will do much, but you may also take on more if you look a little further. How can you improve your neighborhood? Who else is interested and supportive of change? Together we stand a better chance of making change, if we aren’t afraid to speak out and get involved.

How should we conduct our lives? Let us look to the Queen of Hearts’ life and examples for that answer. Let us look into our hearts for the desire: Forgiveness, love, compassion, understanding, concern, caring, and recognition of our own human weaknesses lest we leap to judge others’ errors too harshly. We can end suffering for many people and raise healthy and supportive children who will lead future generations with acts of kindness; simple acts of kindness. Do you think evil can remain evil forever if we always forgive and continue in kindness? Is it not possible that your examples will contribute to the positive growth of others? Of course it will. Evil only begets more evil, but goodness begets goodness. If we stand up for something we believe in with courage, don’t you think we will give courage to someone else to come forward and lend their support? Absolutely!

As an ex-Catholic, I’ve had to practice giving up guilt around
the conscious pursuit of pleasure in my life. I tend to agree with
Napoleon Hill in Think & Grow Rich: “Ask life for great gifts and you
encourage life to deliver them to you.” I made up the following list for
both a speech I gave and a column I wrote. I’m not elaborating much
on any of my 11 principles here, because I hope you will put your
own imagination to active use in seeing how they apply personally.

My 11 guidelines include:

1) Grab your pleasure when and where it shows up. Don’t
have a set idea of how it must look. If you have your schedule set to
accomplish 17 things today, and you get a free ticket to a concert
you’d love to attend, drop those last 13 things if you must, and exult
in your good luck. Do know and honor your & others’ boundaries and
values in the process.

2) When you see something you want, ask for it. Do it as
easily as you’d place your order with the waiter. Assume if you want
it, you’re meant to have it. Ask Life to be your waiter from now on.
It’s easier to get a “no” than to wonder for the next three months
whether you might have gotten your desire if you had asked.

3) Go for what you can have when you can’t have it all.
The sunny part of the rainy day; the friendship if not the lover; the
soup when the entree is too expensive.

4) Get out of your serious adult and into your playful child
every chance you get. How would that look for you? Who would you
invite along? How can you make playfulness a regular fun habit? I
hired the Bubble Man to do a bubble show in my back yard for my
59th birthday party; the five kids and 30 adults oohed and ahhed over
his tricks and the tools he entertained us with. I mark in my annual
calendar in April to find out which day Ben & Jerry’s is giving away
their free ice cream cones. Once a friend in a green foam sombrero
and I in my rainbow colored wig gave away free tickets (”to nothing”)
at a local street festival. It was great fun for us and also for the
receivers of the unusable tickets. What sounds playful to you?

5) Take pride in what does work for you instead of putting
yourself down for your limitations. When I was in Siena, Italy, and
geographically challenged, I feared I’d never find my travel partner
Dee again when I went off looking for lodging. I retraced my route
the long way, but found her. How can you reframe a criticism of
yourself into an approval/ acceptance of you just as you are?

6) Plan for, and insist on, breaks or rests to make the
demanding times less stressful. That goes for at work, on a hike, and
meeting a deadline. What kind of breaks work for you? It could be a
cup of tea, a three block walk, a trip to the store, five minutes of
stretching, or even a nap.

7) Don’t limit yourself by another’s belief on what is
enough. Go back for Life’s seconds. Stop when you have had enough.
Only your own self-judgment keeps you from going for what you
want. In Conversations with God, God says “I don’t care what (work)
you do; all I care is that you fully express all of who you are.” Does
that mean being active in six major projects? Going out to concerts
and dinner and meetings four nights a week? You get to decide.

Don’t make snap judgments about people or places.
There is good and not so good in everything. Give it a chance to
shine. When a man I met through the personals sent an inappropriate
email card, I didn’t ditch him, because I knew he had a good heart.
Some people take time to open up.

9) Tune in to the little things. Look and listen for what
soothes your spirit and quiets your busynessstar or cloud gazing,
daydreaming, birds flying, lilacs, a water fountain, the variety in a
garden center, or classical music.

10) Do whatever it takes to figure out what fulfills you.
Then give yourself over to it. Examples that inspire or fulfill might
include the artist Gaudi in Spain; Journaling; Barbara Sher’s books;
Tony Robbins, B. Kipfer’s 14,000 Things.to be Happy About and The
Wish List.

11) When you experience bliss, wherever you are, embrace
it. Don’t put conditions on it. Let it come; let it go. When I was in
Europe a couple years ago, I had only three days to spend in the Swiss
Alps. I would have loved extra time. But I got total delight out of
those three days. Preferences are fine, but delight in the day.
