Life lessons you can learn from introverts

Introverts are often told that they need to be more extroverted, that their natural way of being is not conducive to a successful or a fulfilling life—just look at the countless guides trying to "help." But the implication there is that being introverted is a problem that needs to be solved, which can sometimes be all too convincing in a world that seems to reward self-promotion over quiet reflection. The real difference between introverts and extroverts relates mostly to how they recharge. The people who gain energy from being alone happen to have a lot of really valuable and underappreciated traits which go a long way in relationships, work, and the general quality of one's life.

Do you know the signs of an identity crisis?

The proverbial "identity crisis" is something we know well in pop culture, but when it comes to ourselves, it can be harder to pin down. Identity itself is a complex concept because it is intrinsically subjective, but most psychologists agree that our identities encompass memories, experiences, relationships, and values, and involve how all of these things fit in our external circumstances. In combination, these components help create our sense of self and define how we move through the world. So, what happens when that personal blueprint is suddenly blurry or torn into pieces? We begin to question ourselves and act out. And this can happen with trauma, career changes, divorce, retirement, and more. But all hope isn’t lost. Click through to learn all about the causes, signs, and ways to work through an identity crisis.

Nancy Meyers movies ranked from worst to best

Nancy Meyers' name is brought up a lot online and across social media when people talk about exquisite interior designs, but this iconic filmmaker's talents extend far beyond her solid taste in design.

These Insanely Helpful Garden Plants Keep the Mosquitoes Away

Say goodbye to the outdoor pests. Bugs come with the territory when you’re outdoors, but some are more tolerable than others. If it feels like mosquitoes are invading your yard, it’s understandable to want to do what you can to get rid of them. Enter mosquito repellent plants. Here’s the thing: Experts say that the best way to keep mosquitoes at bay is to use personal repellents recommended by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC). But if you want to go a more natural route, you may be interested in selecting certain plants—they’re just not necessarily guaranteed to work as well as a spray. “The idea that planting certain plants around your home will successfully repel mosquitoes is only supported by anecdotal evidence and not empirical evidence,” says Eva Buckner, Ph.D., assistant professor and state extension specialist at the University of Florida Medical Entomology Laboratory. It’s important to note, though, that there is some evidence that certain plants may help discourage certain mosquitoes from setting up camp in your yard—they just don’t work as well as a chemical or spray. If it feels like your outdoor space is a haven to mosquitoes, it’s a good idea to “eliminate mosquito breeding grounds on and around your property by draining standing water from flowerpots, birdbaths, grill covers, baby pools, and other sources,” says Jim Fredericks, Ph.D., board-certified entomologist and senior vice president of public affairs at the National Pest Management Association (NPMA). Using a small fan outside may also help keep mosquitoes away since “they are not strong flyers,” Fredericks says. But if you like the look and smell of certain plants and want to see if they keep the mosquitoes away, too, there’s no reason not to try them. These are the plants fans swear are most likely to help get rid of mosquitoes. Snap up one or a few to enhance your outdoor space.
