Forbes Living Ponders the Differences between Night Owls and Early Birds

Some people naturally get up with the roosters and hit their performance peak by mid-morning. Others prefer to stay up late and get up later in the morning, hitting their peak later at night. Forbes Living explores the differences between the night owls and early birds.

For the record, this article is being written in the morning, which makes its writer an early bird. Up before the sun, powered by some good coffee, peak performance is reached by 11 AM.  Some might call morning people “coffee achievers”.  With the day starting afresh, there is much to accomplish before noon. The night owls are still cozy in bed as the early birds start checking off completed tasks for the day. Come mid-day, early risers can take a break, catch a cat nap and then get busy with leftover chores.

Night owls are people who like to hit the sack later, around 11 PM or after. They sleep well into the daylight hours of the morning. They reach peak performance in the late evening, around 8 PM. The stillness of the night as others sleep allows them to accomplish nearly every item on their to-do list. No distractions when the world is sound asleep and dreaming. Night people relish to overnight or graveyard shift.

The early morning risers love the bright of day to awaken their senses, minds and bodies. A regular routine is usually a given for day people. Structure is good and keeps them on track. Night people enjoy the freedom of getting work done without real restrictions. The differences between early birds and night owls can be a difference as night and day, or as common as day and night. Forbes Living wants to know: are you an early bird or a night owl?

Forbes Living TV and How to Keep Finances in Tact for the Holidays

The holiday store displays and some merchandise is already available in many shops and has been since before Halloween. Christmas tree lots are beginning to set up. Very early Black Friday sales are advertised.  It is really hard to not want to break into holiday shopping mode before Thanksgiving. Forbes Living TV shares how to keep finances in tact for the holidays.

Make a gift budget right now.  Be sure to include gifts, entertaining, baking goods and travel expenses. Keep it on the fridge or in a purse or wallet for easy perusal.

If planning to use credit cards and store cards to purchase gifts, choose the cards with the best interest rates and the store cards that offer discounts or cash back. Don’t charge more than 10% on any card. Pay it off before the end of the month or before the due date.

Forbes Living also suggests to use cash instead of credit if there could be a problem paying the amount due on the credit card. Be safe wherever the card is used. Be sure to secure it in a wallet and away from pickpockets can grab.

With a little planning, it won’t be so hard to keep finances in tact for the holiday season.

Forbes Living on How to Deal with Internet Trolls

Internet trolls are people who specifically set out to harass, threaten, insult, offend and cause harm to another person’s life, livelihood and reputation. They pop up everywhere people meet online to communicate, socialize, view videos and discuss the hot topics of the day. And it can be hard to deal with them when it seems there are so many of them. Forbes Living offers advice on how to deal with Internet trolls and other online pests.

Americans take their right to free speech seriously. Some abuse that privilege by going online to purposely wreak havoc in someone else’s life. If we think about it, we all take risks on the Internet when we use social media to catch up with the people in our lives and share remarkable stories. Then, along comes someone we’ve never met who feels they can post something negative and hurtful about us. And we feel like there is nothing we can do.

Dealing with Internet trolls takes time, patience and confidence. Readers who find they are being bothered by trolls and harassers have some options: block the user on the social platform, report the user to the website or social platform, and block the user on cell phones. Forbes Living TV believes that we all have the power to rid negativity from our lives. Here is a thought to keep in mind: “If people are trying to bring you down, it only means that you are above them”. ~ Unknown
