    The Success Indicator - Do you want to know whether or not you are headed for success? Check out the indicators of successful people and unsuccessful people as outlined by MaryEllen Tribby.

    Successful people have a sense of gratitude, compliment others, forgive others, give other people credit for their victories, talk about ideas, read everyday, accept responsibility for their failures, keep a journal, want others to succeed, share information and data, keep a to-be list, set goals and develop life plans, exude joy, embrace change, keep a to-do list, learn continuously, and operate from a transformational perspective.

    Unsuccessful people criticize, have a sense of entitlement, hold a grudge, take all the credit, blame others for their failures, watch TV every day, don’t keep a journal, think they know it all, fear change, fly by the seat of their pants, operate from a transactional perspective, talk about people, secretly hope others fail, hoard information and data, don’t know what they want to be, never set goals, and exude anger. And they don’t read nearly enough.

    Mark Bittman’s 5 Commandments for Better Eating

    1. Go mostly vegan. Don’t eat animal products before 6:00 p.m.

    2. Minimize the meat. Cut the portions of meat you used to eat.

    3. Weigh yourself regularly. Use your weight as an indicator of whether you are eating too much.

    4. Cut yourself some slack. No single meal matters. No single day matters. What matters is the pattern of your eating.

    5. Make it your own. Use these rules as a guide. Figure out what works for you.
