But the most important reason for reading fluently and well is the world of books. Textbooks, novels, biographies, the scriptures of the world religions; all these help us to understand the world of the past, interpret the present, and plant for the future. It is, of course, possible to ‘overdo’ reading, and become ‘bookish’, preferring the world of the written word to the realities of living experience, but this is the failure of relatively few.

How Dogecoins came into existence?
What started as a joke n 2013, is now suddenly worth more than $10 billion. Dogecoin was created back in 2013 by two programmers, Jackson Palmer and billy markus. It was created as a fork of Litecoin which in turn is a fork of bitcoin. It is based on another cryptocurrency called Litecoin but with some modification like faster transactions and also no restrictions on the number of these that can be supplied. Palmer and markus thought it would be funny to brand it with the Doge mem that was very popular back then. In the past couple of days, the values of dogecoin has skyrocketed which wasn’t very popular earlier.

As abstract expressionist painter Hans Hofmann says, to simplify, you have to get rid of the unnecessary. To do that, you need to know what is necessary, and that knowledge comes from knowing what your message is.
If you don't, you'll just wind up carving away at your work willy-nilly, and you could be slicing off some of the most important and pertinent parts.
Think about what you are trying to say. Does your art convey that? Are you letting your work speak?
Know your message and simplify your work so it may speak for you.

Business casual vs business formal
Dressing for job interviews used to be straightforward; regardless of industry, job title, or gender, the appropriate outfit was some variation of a suit. For folks in creative or casual industries, job interviews might be the only times they wore that suit, but wear it they did — or else. It was understood that hiring managers wouldn’t look kindly on candidates who showed up to interview in anything less. First things first: let the corporate culture of the company be your guide. This means that if people generally dress up to go to work, so should you.
When interviewing for a professional position at a traditional company, it's always important to dress professionally and to dress in your best business attire, regardless of the organization's dress code.
On the other hand, if you’re interviewing at a tech startup, a media company, or similar, and most people wear jeans and t-shirts to work, you can be a bit more relaxed and opt for business casual attire.

"Top 3 Muscles which will make you look bigger
""Is your fitness goal a bit different than the classic “lose weight and look fit” narrative? Do you want to look buff, big, and bulky like professional bodybuilders? If that sounds like you, then you’ve come to the right article. Working on your gains takes more than just gym dedication and the right diet. There are certain muscle groups you should be focusing on in order to gain mass and look bigger.
We’re going to go over how to look bigger by training key muscle groups and areas of your body. We’ll also throw in a few other tips for looking big as well, so keep reading.
"Traps
Your “traps” refer to your trapezius muscles, aka the triangle shaped muscle that appears to connect your neck to your shoulders/back. Picture a football player or a wrestler in your mind: most of these huge, strong athletes have highly developed traps that make them look wide, thick, and strong.
Building up your traps will give your neck and back a broader and thicker appearance. Not only will building your traps make you appear larger and stronger, but it will also increase your upper-body strength tremendously, which will help you add size and gains to other areas of your upper body as well.
Pecs/Chest
Your “pecs” are your pectorals, aka your chest muscles. Gaining muscle in this area will make you look wider, and will give your chest a more “puffed out” appearance, which will make you look bigger overall. Professional bodybuilders know the importance of these muscles and dedicate ample time to their bench press in order to gain strength, size, and definition.
Arms: Biceps and Triceps
You probably aren’t surprised to see the two major muscles of the upper arms on this list. Most people equate arm muscles with strength, especially since some find these are the easiest to train and the quickest to gain mass.
You want to be careful about training these two muscles equally. If you only train your biceps, you’re sure to see an increase in mass. But, you’ll look imbalanced and non-symmetrical, which won’t give you the built look you’re trying to achieve.

“If you don’t seem confident of what you say or your speech is stuffed with instances of throat-clearing and fillers, why would the listener have any
concrete faith in your words either?“ Grady Roche
Another quote spoke about stumbling over your words but this one is about inspiring trust in your words. If your message isn’t delivered with conviction and it seems
like you don’t believe it then how could anyone else
Filler words and stuttering seem to communicate that you’re not confident in what you’re saying – even if that’s not the case. If this is a problem for you then
rehearse ahead of time to make sure you get it right.
