Honesty

I remember this saying as far back as I can remember; it hung on a little wooden plaque on the dining room wall of my grandad and grandma's house. I admit that I was a little slow on the significance and meaning of it; but this is an insight; we would do well to remember. We have many such reminders that are popular in culture, such as, "oh what a tangled web we weave, when at first we practice to deceive" and "honesty is the best policy." But all too often we (and I include myself) end up being dishonest. Lying is something that we all struggle with; we know we shouldn't lie; we know we should tell the Truth; but all too often we don't. But we do not have to lie. None of us have to lie. So, lets start working on being more honest with each other. There is another saying I have like since I was a kid: "Today is the first day of the rest of your life." No matter the lies you have told before; you can start today with honesty.

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.
