what love at first sight says?

Our Eyes immediately differ between attraction,romantic; Is It Love At First Sight?:

love at first sight

The Eyes Know Love From Lust

Dating is often a confusing and difficult process; how do you know if they really like you or if they’re just wasting your time? Well contrary to the common belief, knowing if your partner truly loves you may lie more in their eyes than their kiss. Researchers found that eye patterns concentrate on a stranger’s face if the viewer sees that person as a potential partner in romantic love, but if your date only has feelings of sexual desire toward you, they are more likely to gaze at your body. These results were found to occur in both male and female volunteers. Lead author of the study Stephanie Cacioppo explained in a press release that these findings may help “differentiate feelings of love from feelings of desire toward strangers,” and could shed a bit of light on “the science of love at first sight or how people fall in love.”

Quickly Know If Strangers Could Be Potential Romantic Partner

As part of the study, male and female volunteers were asked to look at a series of black and white non-explicit photographs of people they had never met before. Volunteers were then asked to decide as quickly as possible if they perceived the people in the photographs as eliciting feelings of sexual desire or romantic love. Interestingly enough, there was no notable difference in time that it took volunteers to know if they identified the images with mere lust or potentially something more. This suggests that these feelings may occur almost instantaneously.

Love And Lust Activate Different Parts Of The Brain

Previous studies by Cacioppo have revealed that different regions of the brain are activated by love and lust, however, results from this study suggest the origins of these emotions may be more instinctual than learned. Co-author John Cacioppo hopes that the eye patterns he and his wife have identified will “contribute to the development of a biomarker that differentiates feelings of romantic love versus sexual desire.”

What Makes Us Fall In Love?

Although personally we may “just know” what we are looking for in a potential romantic partner, it can be difficult to translate our natural instinct into a verbal explanation. Psychologists believe that it takes between 90 seconds and four minutes to decide if someone is a potential mate. Science suggests that visual markers such as facial symmetry, and women with “hourglass” figures or men with muscular physiques are what humans naturally look for in a mate, but we all know attraction goes so much further. Some interesting studies have found that people often go for partners that share similar features that cannot be visually perceived suggesting that attraction may actually occur on a subconscious level.  Many couples have similarities between lung volumes, middle finger lengths, ear lobe lengths, neck and wrist circumferences, and metabolic rates.

7 Hard Lessons Everyone Needs To Learn About Success!

1. The universe doesn't care if you succeed or fail.

When you're on top of your game, it can seem like the world is on your side; when you're at your worst, it can seem like the world is out to get you. The truth, says Quora user Tom Wills, is that neither is true. You're responsible for yourself.

2. The biggest obstacle to success is often yourself.

And once you recognize that you're not the center of the universe, Wills adds, you may realize that the main thing holding you back is your own behavior. You're probably guilty of this if you can always find reasons for why you got fired from your job, why your startup fell apart, etc.
The user Manas J. Saloi quoted author J.K. Rowling, who struggled with poverty and personal setbacks before becoming a famous writer and millionaire, on this point: "There is an [expiration] date on blaming your parents for steering you in the wrong direction; the moment you are old enough to take the wheel, responsibility lies with you."

3. You're not owed anything.

Wills says that he also realized that nobody owes him anything. In terms of advancing in your career, it's advisable that you do whatever you can to treat people ethically and help out your coworkers. This can build your professional network and give you a good reputation, but it certainly does not guarantee that your good deeds will always be returned.

4. Luck plays a huge role in success.

Catching a big break that leads to landing your dream job, for example, often depends on being in the right place at the right time. All you can do is foster professional relationships and develop your skills to increase your odds of getting lucky.
"People are afraid to face how great a part of life is dependent on luck. It's scary to think so much is out of one's control," user Aditya Gupta writes.

5. Everything you've worked for can disappear in an instant.

When your career goes well and you make enough money to buy a house and put your kids through college, you should enjoy it. Quora user Ankit Sharma writes that what you have today isn't necessarily yours forever. That's why it's important to live in the present, and be grateful for your accomplishments.

6. You can do, say, and think all the "right" things and still not succeed.

Getting a degree from an elite university and putting in countless overtime hours does not mean that you will be adequately rewarded for your hard work, says user Jon Mixon. And even if they do lead you to influence and money, he says, you can still be perceived as a failure.

7. You define what "success" means.

A big paycheck and the respect of your coworkers are great things to have, but there's a danger to narrowing your definition of success down to them, argues Mixon, because they mean nothing to your happiness or self-fulfillment if you destroy relationships along the way.
"It is difficult for most people to accept the fact that they are only as happy as they allow themselves to be,"

why you are bad at whatever you do! reasons>

5 Reasons You Are Bad At Whatever You Are Doing!

Failure
1. Failure to start with the basics.
We are often guilty of thinking that we already know the basics of something and this then leads to us skipping reading the instructions and just getting stuck into it. The problem here is that we are often slightly deluded and misjudge our own capabilities or see it as some kind of a weakness in having to go right back to the start. However, it is essential that you read instructions or take small steps from the outset in order to build a firm foundation and the task, or job, you are doing will then become easier and you will be better at it. Get the foundation wrong and you will continue to make the same mistakes and be completely unaware that there is anything amiss leading to you failing to improve over time.
exhausted
2. We rush through it without too much thought.
Following on from the idea of not starting with the basics, you will often also find that people are bad at what they are doing due to not taking their time with the job and trying to just rush through it in order to get it done. The problem here is that we will often make the same mistakes time and time again, but due to the speed at which we are doing the task we will not even notice the mistakes and carry on regardless. The key here is to slow down a bit and try not to do too much in the one day and you will see an improvement in how you handle the tasks and will be better as well.
3. We do not practice and lack concentration.
Studies have shown that there are so many working hours lost in offices around the world due to people being easily side-tracked in a variety of ways or time wasted correcting mistakes that have come due to a lack of concentration. If your heart is not in whatever it is that you are doing it will then lead to errors not only being made, but also you missing correcting them. In order to improve our concentration we need to be focused and actually practice what we are doing. Accept that even top people in their field still practice, you only have to look at sports people, and there is no shame in it, so just do it.
Bored at work
4. We allow our frustrations to get the better of us.
If you find that you are becoming frustrated it will often lead to you being bad at whatever it is that you are doing because as that anger builds and the adrenaline flows around our body it leads to the job or task getting the better of us. Instead, you need to look at ways to prevent yourself from becoming so frustrated and accepthat things will not always go as smoothly as you hoped and when you master your mood it should hopefully lead to things becoming a lot easier.
5. We try to do something we have no real interest in.
Doing a job that you find laborious or boring will often lead to you being bad at it as you do not have the same kind of drive to complete it to the standard required and you will also care less about those small errors that creep into your work. By doing something you love, or at least have some kind of interest in, you will find that you can get better and have a willingness to learn and improve, but we need to have that desire inside us in order to make any progress. If you have no real interest in a particular type of job, then the best advice is to avoid it or if you hate golf, then avoid picking up those clubs or you will face an uphill struggle from the start.

Overcoming Loneliness:

we all fell lonely sometimes,instead of running from it try this

Loneliness can take root deeply within you. Maybe your daily routine is punctuated by this pain emanating from an emptiness in your chest. If so, you know that you are in trouble. It is a symptom of your severed connection from humanity. But while it can instill a sense of worthlessness and hopelessness, it can also be soothed.
The healing agents for loneliness are awareness, acceptance, and compassion. Here’s how it works:
Awareness. Choose to bring your awareness to your experience. Pay attention to how your body feels—the hollowness in your chest, the constriction in your throat, the heaviness of your body. If you feel the sadness well up within you, allow yourself to cry without restraint.
Acceptance. Many people instinctively try to run from loneliness. Sometimes they try to hide from it by numbing themselves. They might sleep, watch TV, or play video games. Or, they might try to distract themselves with chores and activities. They keep busy and superficially engaged in life. But none of this really works—at least not for the long haul. The aching emptiness breaks through numbed bodies and mindless activity.

Sometimes, people try to get rid of the pain by blaming themselves for it. They criticize themselves for being unworthy of others. They see all their flaws or mistakes and demean themselves for them. Frequently, their unconscious hope is that if they could identify what’s wrong with themselves and fix it, then they can make the pain go away. Or, if they can’t make it go away, they can at least make sense of it. But they only feel worse for their efforts.
Instead, choose to stay with the feeling. Acknowledge your loneliness and choose to continue being aware of it.
Compassion. Practice reminding yourself that others feel lonely, too. It is part of the human experience that most people share at some time or other. And just as you would show compassion for anyone else who suffers from being lonely, you also deserve this caring response. So, choose to see yourself with perspective—as you would see someone else—and tell yourself that it is sad that you feel so alone.
If you have supportive others in your life, reach out to them. Take a deep breath, pick up the phone to text or call, and ask for support in whatever form you need it. Allowing yourself to truly connect with others will help you feel emotionally stronger and less alone.
Strange as it might seem, there are benefits to loneliness, so you don’t necessarily want to be totally without it. By feeling lonely, you are able to understand and have compassion for others who feel similarly. Your loneliness can also be a crucial signal that your relationships are not as emotionally close, supportive, or engaging as you really want them to be. So it offers you a chance to identify this problem and make efforts to fix it.
As you consider these ideas, keep this in mind: The person who you are right now is in pain, a very human kind of pain in which you feel different from all other people and yearn to feel connected. Just as it would be sad to see others struggle with this, it is sad that you feel this way. And just as you would naturally feel compassion for their pain, you deserve the same compassion. So accept and feel your loneliness. Then offer yourself compassion. Doing this will help to ease your pain, open you up to experiencing a sense of feeling connected, and help you to take the necessary steps to reach out to others.
