Being a mother means being there for every up and down in your child’s life. It means putting your all into a relationship, from nurturing to befriending. You are there from the very first moment, and you want to be there through every moment afterwards. You have watched her grow from a baby into a full-grown woman before you could even blink, and now she has found the love of her life and is ready to get married.

Time goes by so quickly, which is why making the most out of every moment is important, for you and for her. You don’t have time to do things twice, you don’t have time to play it safe. When it comes to big milestones like her wedding, you want the experience to be as incredible and unique as she is, and as her mother, it is your job to help her realize her dreams.

Far too many weddings are based wholly on tradition, despite those traditions being steeped in cultural significance that no longer applies. Yes, many young brides want nothing more than the traditional white wedding they’ve seen again and again, but a wedding should be a unique experience, meaning you should never shy away from exciting or different traditions just because it wasn’t featured in the latest wedding magazine. You can do whatever you want and make your own traditions, which is why as her mother you should do all you can to help her have her dream wedding.

To help both of you get started with planning, consider these unique wedding traditions to use on her big day:

If you’re wondering whether or not it’s a good idea to add to your ATV, think in terms of light. Poor lighting leaves you at risk for so many different types of incidents – which can be avoided. These days, nearly all ATV’s come with standard low and high beam lighting. But, additional lighting can help you to see what is ahead and what to avoid.

In fact, many riders are adding LED light bars for their vehicles.

While the major benefit is that the right lights can help you to see and to avoid accidents, here are a few tips to ensure you purchase the correct LED lights for your ATV.

Mindfulness: it is not just a buzzword or a trend to be dabbled in. It is something that we as adults should be aiming to have a skill, and pass down to our children too. Before we look at how we can instill mindfulness in our children (and whole family), let’s look at what mindfulness is.

“a mental state achieved by focusing one's awareness on the present moment, while calmly acknowledging and accepting one's feelings, thoughts, and bodily sensations, used as a therapeutic technique.”

First things first:

In order to teach something like mindfulness, we need to have our practices in place. How do you do it? Do you meditate? Do you have an inner monologue of sayings that help you stay in that space? Whatever it is, you have to be doing it too. If not, there is no better time to start. Set a goal to begin meditating for at least 3 minutes a day – you can use an app to help you if you want, then up your time when you get more and more comfortable with it.

Think about why you are doing this? If you are finding that you are setting expectations, then perhaps you need to reconsider. Anything other than for your child to learn to process thoughts and feelings with a sense of confidence then stop.

We think of playtime as being just for children but adults should be allowed to play too. When we get together, it’s easy to spend an evening chatting over drinks or chilling out in front of the TV but what if we got more creative with our leisure time?

Adults should be playing much more often whether it is on a sports team or doing challenges like an escape room or having fun with a night of poker. Play brings us closer together, it gives us an opportunity to talk about new things and develop ourselves and relationships. In fact, the more you think about it, the more obvious it seems that adults should be playing together too.

The year 2017 witnessed major cybersecurity disruptions around the world, and as we enter the year 2018, we can expect to see cybercriminals making this trend more profound by using machine learning and artificial intelligence to launch more virulent malware, DDoS attacks and vandalism.
Though 2018 will surely bring more connectivity and embark on proficient digital transformation initiatives, the continual digital transformation entailed in our lives has already positioned cybercriminals to attack on all the devices connected to the IOT (Internet of Things) - both in offices and homes.
But at the same time, the Internet of Things (IoT) and Artificial Intelligence (AI) is a proficient tool in the hands of defenders as well, which can completely alter the cybersecurity landscape.

Here are some cyber security predictions for the year 2018:

Whether you are about to embark on an important job interview, meet your future in-laws, or about to have your first day at a new job, first impressions are always what comes first. It is completely normal to be nervous about what these people may think of you, but there is no reason to not feel confident and prepared. Most individuals will judge you within the first seconds of meeting you, and it is likely that opinion will not change. This is why it is important to knock your first impression out of the ballpark.

First, you need to understand the power of first impressions. This is not something to take lightly, but at the same time, you shouldn’t grow any grey hairs over it. Scientific studies say that a human’s mind can handle 40 bits of information every second. That may sound like a lot, but our unconscious mind actually handles 11 million bps. This all goes to say that we let the unconscious part of the mind handle things like first impressions, along with millions of other things. This means that when you walk into that room for your interview, you only have a few seconds for the interviewer to notice certain aspects about you before they start getting distracted with other thoughts or move on.

Now that you understand why first impressions matter so much, it is time to ensure your first impression is a good one:

It can sound like a bit of a chore, but your resume should be adapted to fit every single different job that you’re applying for. No two of your resumes should be the same. You should analyse the wording of each job advert you like the look of and try to echo this within your resume. If the company you are looking to apply to seeks a candidate to ‘network across the business’, and you have written that you ‘liaise with stakeholders’ change the wording. Many companies use machine screening and will not pick up on the similarities between these two actions.

So, what are the things we could do to make our everyday full of joy?

Every business has its own personal markings that will make it stand out and be noticed. The same happens for individuals when they either become successful or merely make an effort to be seen. Making your mark can also be done by how you contact via practical means. By doing this, you can create an aura and an atmosphere around the point of communication with those you love and or those who are in your close circle professionally. More often than not it will be a case of the latter needing to be pushed forward and become a part of your natural routine. If you own a business or just want to get, your name circulating around the workplace, when you are making memos, handing out documents, and or writing reports, your personal markings should express your presence.
