Daily Om: Centering Yourself →
When our thoughts are scattered in several directions at once and we are no longer conscious of what we are doing or why, it is time to center ourselves.

Women now outnumber men at almost every level of higher education, with three women attending college and graduate school for every two men. They get more master’s degrees and more PhDs.
