Throughout this quarantine time, I see and hear many people trying to find things to do to keep themselves busy. This is certainly a time where many of us have free time that we don't really know what to do with. Free time is never a bad thing - it gives us an opportunity to…
During this time of quarantine from the COVID-19 pandemic we are experiencing, I can tell that everyone, including myself, has many questions and worries about the situation we are in. I, thankfully, am blessed to be in a place where I have food, shelter, medicine, etc. Not everyone has that, and in a time like…
I'm sad. Sad that this chapter is ending so quickly. 4 years at Rockhurst is coming to an abrupt halt, as they have closed campus and moved to online coursework for the final 8 weeks of my college life. It doesn't affect me much in terms of daily schedule, as the only "class" I have…
Today is the close of a chapter, but hardly the end of a story. In the midst of the current coronavirus epidemic worldwide, we are seeing the cancellations/suspension of play across many sports, suspension of education at all levels, and really any event/gathering with a crowd is being called off. It is a fair move…
I don't normally cross-content with my blog and my podcast, especially because they are two completely different topics, but I felt that one part of my sports show crosses over with this blog. Every episode of my podcast, I slip in a 30-second reminder to take care of yourself. No matter the situation in…
As I reflect on the past month, it was busy and full of unfortunate surprises. Now that I'm on the back half of these things, I am thankful for the learning and life lessons I gained. Fortunately, I didn't receive any "life setbacks" from anything, but there was a lot of time taken away and…
As I begin to work full-time this week at my internship, I am reminded of how busy my next 8 weeks will be: Working 40 hours a week will be a new task of time management and challenges. However, I really enjoy my job and I'm excited about the busyness of the golf season to…
Lately, I feel as if the problems I face in my life as the problems I have faced before. For me, it's easy to turn these "recurring" problems into self-doubt. - If I have had these problems before, why am I having them again? - Why can't I fix the problem as it's still here?…
Fortunately, I'm not lost in thought, but sometimes my thoughts put me in a place where I am lost. I am always thinking about something - we all are. I am someone who constantly is playing out scenarios in my head. I am looking to see how something might play out based on the decisions…
As I reflect on the last two weeks of my life, I recognize that many things that happened were not ideal. Although I had many things not go my way, I never found myself becoming stressed or impatient. I was disappointed that it wasn't going well, but I knew it was things I can't control.…
