Written errors in the use of lose , loose , and loss are common. One error is to write the adjective loose (rhymes with moose ) as if it were the verb lose (rhymes with booze ). Incorrect: Don’t loose touch when people leave for a new position. Correct : Don’t lose touch when people leave for a new position. In the expression “to lose touch,” lose is a verb with the meaning, “to fail to maintain.”. Incorrect: It can be painful to loose a loved one. MORE
The word OK has found its way into just about every language on earth. Although it’s usually written in all capitals and pronounced as separate letters, OK is a word and not an acronym, although it began as one. The most likely origin of OK is as an acronym for “Oll Korrect,” a deliberate misspelling of “all correct.”. In the years before the American Civil War (1861-1864), journalists thought it was great fun to misspell words for comic effect. MORE

Beth and I were talking about how paralyzed she feels. She''s been trying to choose between two options for a project she''s working on for her business.

That''s a long time to be undecided. And, in Beth''s case, while she''s been chewing on this, she''s missed a few opportunities. MORE

‘Hey Bro, how do I get that prison body?’ One of the most common questions I’d be asked by guys when I worked as a Personal Trainer. The body they’re talking about of course is that larger than life look some prisoners have when they go away for a long time. How they can be put away for a couple of years – and suddenly come out looking superhuman at the other end of the stretch. Sadly, there is no formula for the bros to get that prison body though – unless they actually go to prison. MORE

Many people see business ownership as the best route to financial and career freedom, so it’s no surprise that the number is so high.
