How To Repair Roof Leak They are the two most dreaded words in a homeowner’s vocabulary: a leaky roof. Water is the most insidious foe, eager to penetrate your home covering’s most vulnerable defenses. And once inside, the damage and destruction may be taking place far from the point of the initial attack, making the initial source of a roof leak difficult to identify. 1. Age Roofing materials, especially asphalt shingles, get old and tired. Expansion and contraction with the change in temperatures cause aging roof protection to turn brittle and eventually crack. Years of harsh rays from direct sunlight can melt the tar that holds  composition shingles  together. Father Time has not lost a battle yet and when roofing materials run up against their life expectancy, it will be time to  budget for a new roof  at the first sign of a leak. 2.  Secure curled shingles. Curled-back shingles, for example, can be re-secured by brushing on a coating of ...

Master of Time

You are 15 minutes late. I don't want to hear your excuses!  Save your excuses. It is not about "having time". It is about "making time". If it matters, you will make time.    Successful people are successful because they get a lot done. The only way to do is by making the most out of the allotted 24 hours we all get. Extraordinary people value their time and see the direct connection between how they spend their time and their well-being. They are usually always on time by implementing strict start and end times.    Everyone has 24 hours a day to complete their tasks. It all comes down to time management, which is an art. Whenever you say you do not have time for this or do not have time for that, you really mean to say that you have other things to do. So it all depends on you to prioritise which task you want to do or complete first. If you have a meeting and you show up late. You start giving excuses. Of course sometimes there are things which w...

Gratitude

I feel grateful for... Be grateful for what you have, work hard for what you don't have. Stop complaining. Stop wishing. Start working.    Your attitude about your life and how much gratitude you show on a daily basis can greatly impact your success. In fact, the more grateful you are for what you already have, the faster you can achieve the success that you are looking for. Well, you must be thinking how on earth can a gratitude play an important role in determining your success. Let me give you an example.    Let's say you get up late in the morning for work, and you get upset and blame the alarm for not waking you up. Then you hurried into the kitchen to cook your breakfast but then you burned your toast. You then say, "could my day get any worse?"  If you want to avoid the day that seems to keep getting worse, all you have to do is change your attitude. Instead of getting upset when you woke up late, you can just feel thankful that you have a comf...

Courage

Are you ready to face it?  YES you, I am talking to you! "  Success is not final, failure is not fatal; It is the courage to continue that counts "  - Winston Churchill    We have all heard the phrase "No risk. No reward." But how many of us really take the risk necessary to get the reward we want? Not many. But for those who do, they are the ones who make it and become successful. Successful people have the courage to begin and the courage to continue. They are willing to not only bet but go "all in" on themselves. They are not afraid to burn bridges if it means moving forward    There's very few examples of successful businesses that happened from only luck or opportunity. Even if an opportunity were to land in one's lap, it still takes courageous decisions and dedication to make it successful. Courage is not something which can be developed overnight. But through experiences and exposures, one can choose how to face the outcomes i....

STOP! procrastination and get back to work... They say nothing comes easy and that is true. Only hardwork and determination will get you to the finish line. There is never a short cut.      I believe hard work and determination brings success. In my opinion, hardworking means to strive and to ignore anything or anyone that can be a distraction. I know throgh determination, hard work can be established. If you are determined to become successful, hard work would not be something that you will avoid. Instead, because of your determination, hard work will be something you would love to do in order to reach your goal.        If you ask any successful people what is the key to their success, hardwork and determination will be one of their first answer. Every people have their own dreams. We all dream of becoming or achieving something in life. We dream about it, prepare for it,gather all the resources necessary for it. But in the end, how many ...

Believe in Yourself

BELIEVE IN YOURSELF!  Have faith in your abilities! Without a humble but reasonable confidence in your own powers, You cannot be successful or happy....     Believing in yourself is probably the most important and fundamental trait every successful people have. Most of the self made billionares started from little or nothing. They had to go through difficulties and failures, but they never gave up.They kept on pushing forward and believing in themselves, with affirmation that everything is going to be alright.             In the midst of darkness, they always believe that there is light. Belief is what keep them going. Believing in themselves and their abilities is enough to convince them that whatever they have done, whether the results would be as expected or not, at least they have tried and have done their best , even though they miss the shot.  Belief is what drives them toward the success.    ...
