I am so sorry to break this terrible news to you today, November 30, 2011. I know its holiday season and all but we have been in this relationship far too long. You are KILLING me! You always stink. You make my teeth turn yellow and you are definitely decreasing my chances of becoming a famous singer. I have a great voice and I LOVE myself too much to keep holding on to you. It just doesn’t even make sense. I mean you calm my nerves for a minute but then I’m running back to your smelly A$$!

Can you just let me BREATHE now? I have to move on with my LIFE!

According to CopyBlogger.com, here are eight of the very worst bad habits that could be holding you back every day:

1. Creating and evaluating at the same time-Don’t JUDGE your work too harshly.

2. The Expert Syndrome-Every path to success is different. Be your own expert

3. Fear of failure

4. Fear of ambiguity-Don’t be afraid of chaos.

5. Lack of confidence

6. Discouragement from other people

7. Being overwhelmed by information

8. Being trapped by false limits

Take this kiss upon the brow!
And, in parting from you now,
Thus much let me avow–
You are not wrong, who deem
That my days have been a dream;
Yet if hope has flown away
In a night, or in a day,
In a vision, or in none,
Is it therefore the less gone?
All that we see or seem
Is but a dream within a dream.

I stand amid the roar
Of a surf-tormented shore,
And I hold within my hand
Grains of the golden sand–
How few! yet how they creep
Through my fingers to the deep,
While I weep–while I weep!
O God! can I not grasp
Them with a tighter clasp?
O God! can I not save
One from the pitiless wave?
Is all that we see or seem
But a dream within a dream?

Have a great weekend!

Don’t confuse the reader?

Question:

Do the appetizers precede or proceed the main course?

Answer:

precede

How to remember it:

Consider the prefix, pre–. It means “earlier than,” or “before” – as we can see in a phrase like preexisting condition, or in the word prefix itself.

To precede is to go or come before, or to be earlier than.

The root of proceed means “to go forward,” a meaning we can see in a sentence like “Let’s now proceed with the meal.”

Can you use both words correctly in a sentence? Feel free to respond!
