All too often these days we procrastinate and put things off. Much of what we say can't be done now can, in fact, be done now. I am not saying there is never a time when we can't do something. But we need to as the popular prayer goes: 
"God, give me grace to accept with serenity
the things that cannot be changed,
Courage to change the things
which should be changed,
and the Wisdom to distinguish
the one from the other."

If it should be done, then we should be doing it. There is so much that fear trying for fear of failure, but anything we never start we have already failed at.

I encourage you to find at least one thing that needs doing today, and set out and do it.

It is a question perplexing millions of people around the world who are struggling with this issue.  Recovery isn't simply a matter of stopping the pornography use.

How to fix any Android phone stuck in headphone mode only.

My fiancee's phone had this problem recently. I found this video very helpful and it worked. Except that I suggested she try some compressed air (the kind in cans for cleaning keyboards) She tried the q-tip and it fixed it for a minute or two, but the compressed air cleaned some more out and it has been working great since. If you need phone chargers or headphones or computer cords, other electronics,  check out  the electronics section of our store. We hope to have the one you are looking for.

Success

Sometimes, we feel like giving up. It seems like we put a lot of effort in and never succeed, but maybe if we were to take a step back: we would see that we are having a series of small wins. Even if we can't, we might need to remember to view "failure" in the light of a lesson learned. Shortly before He invented his light bulb, Thomas Edison is attributed to saying "I have not failed; I have discovered 1,000 ways not to make a light bulb." We want to encourage you today to not give up. The only way to surely fail is to never try or to stop trying. You may need a new approach, or a slight modification to your plan or goal; but do not give up on any worthwhile goal.
