In the last eight to twelve weeks, I’ve been thinking a lot about things. When I was younger, I used to think tears were a sign of weakness. I believed if I couldn’t keep my emotions in check then I would be considered weak and fragile. As I got older, I gave myself permission … More You’re NOT Weak, You’re actually Strong!
While I was headed out of town last week I was listening to different podcasts on the road, and one of the podcasts was talking about their Enneagram number. They had a panel of people talking about how your number can show you some hard truths. If you’re completely honest while taking the test … More I Got Checked by My Enneagram Number (Blogmas #5)
One thing that I tend to enjoy is listening to inspiring stories from people who started from the bottom. When I hear great success stories from people who started out with nothing but a dream, it lets me know that it’s possible. Sometimes when we are in the midst of our journey we start … More Timing vs X-Factor (Pursuing Your Dreams)
Today I had a lot on my mind. I was thinking a lot about grad school. A lot of my work consisted of interviews. As an introvert who is also awkward and a little shy, I was always afraid to approach people or reach out to strangers. I guess you can say it was just … More Just One Door . . .

We might want to do something meaningful and … More Instant Motivation

Continuing on with the “ideal” series, I thought it would be fitting to write a post of my ideal first date. If I had to think of a date that’s fun, special and leaves a lasting impression this would be my idea of that. I’m going to share my thoughts about two different dates, … More My Ideal First Date
In honor of Motivation Monday, I thought I would share a tip that keeps me motivated. One thing that keeps me driven is my music playlist. I have a playlist that’s dedicated to songs that express where I want to be, or how I want to be. It’s almost like visualizing. Every time I work … More This Keeps Me Motivated . . .
I was watching a compilation video of inspiring words and wisdom. In the video Will Smith mentioned that some people are talented, and some people are really skilled. Talented people are naturally gifted and born with a special ability or skill. Then you have people who are really skilled, who practiced a particular skill … More Talent vs Skill (Were you born with a talent? Or did you learn a skill?)
This month there won’t be any challenges. Seems like whenever I start a challenge unexpectant situations pop up, and at this point these challenges are giving me a little PTSD. I’m actually terrified to start another challenge at this point. The May challenge started off great, but if you read my last … More No Goals, No Expectations!
