10 Hard Things We Should All Do for Ourselves More Often
10 Hard Things We Should All Do for Ourselves More Often
Don't avoid doing these hard things for yourself. Your mind and body both need to be exercised to gain strength, consistently.
Which team succeeded in the end? The team that took consistent daily action. Why? Because what we do EVERY day defines us! Today’s progress is always compounded by yesterday’s effort, no matter how small.
In most cases, problems like these are not caused not by a physically present limitation, but by a weakness of the mind — specifically, a lack of self-discipline.
We put the hard things off until tomorrow — because the “weather” is bad — until we’ve lost our edge. We grow accustomed to the idea that things should be easier than they are, and that waiting another day or two makes the best sense. Then one day we wake up and we’re emotionally incapable of doing the hard things that must be done — it’s too late.
Remember, many great things can be done in a day if you don’t always make that day tomorrow. Take positive action and plant the right seeds in your life right now. Nature herself does not distinguish between what seeds she receives. She grows whatever seeds are planted. This is the way life works. Be mindful of the seeds you plant today, as they will become the crop you harvest tomorrow.

Autism severity rooted in embryonic brain growth, study suggests
Autism severity rooted in embryonic brain growth, study suggests
The severity of autism symptoms is linked to brain overgrowth during early embryonic development, with larger brain cortical organoids correlating with more severe social and cognitive challenges in children with autism.
Some children with autism struggle with profound difficulties in social, language, and cognitive skills and might be non-verbal, while others show significant improvements as they grow older.
Previous studies had suggested that autism has prenatal origins, but no study had definitively linked early brain development with the severity of autism symptoms until now.
A significant finding was that BCOs derived from toddlers with ASD grew substantially larger—about 40% larger—than those derived from neurotypical toddlers.
“Toddlers who had profound autism, which is the most severe type of autism, had the largest BCO overgrowth during embryonic development. Those with mild autism social symptoms had only mild overgrowth.”

Receiving an Autism Diagnosis Later In Life: a self-advocate perspective
Getting an autism test, and being diagnosed as autistic when you are an adult can be an intense experience. This toolkit was created to support those experiencing this exciting, but sometimes emotional, transition to self-acceptance. It provides some helpful information and lived experience with the hope that it will be useful to those beginning this journey. The primary author of this toolkit, Rebekah Kitzinger, was diagnosed as an adult. She created this toolkit to share her experiences and the lessons she has learned since receiving her diagnosis.

ASAN intern Lydia Brown originally published this article on their blog Autistic Hoya under the title The Significance of Semantics: Person-First Language: Why It Matters. At the Adult Services Subcommittee's final meeting last Wednesday, much to do was made about semantic disagreements -- "ASD individual" versus "individual with ASD," and…
