When Forgetting You Have a Problem Might Be The Problem.

When you take action and address a problem, sometimes you feel that it has been dealt with and now think that things will go well for you from now on. But there is a difference between doing well, and just thinking that you are doing well. 

I feel better when I have "done something" about my health. I also think that my car runs better after I wash it.  It is best to have some third party or look to an objective measurement to evaluate your true progress.

Change your attitude, change your lifespan

Apparently, modern empirical science is finally catching up with King Solomon.
