A lesson I am learning is that time always seems to move faster and faster. It does in fact fly. Many times in Mac Miller's music, arguably my favorite musician of all-time, he uttered the line "Time flies... try and catch it." Although this is a cliché, it always rang true each time I heard…

Feeling the feelings.
Every moment of life provides us with different feelings. Whether that be feelings that our 5 physical senses present ourselves with (a smell, a taste, a touch, etc.) or a feeling that our mind sends through our body and makes us think about (happy, content, anxious, etc.) I went through a time in my life…
Acknowledgment.
I talk all the time about how it is "easy" to know that something is happening but not necessarily "easy" to do something about it. Lately, I've realized that sometimes it's not that easy to acknowledge something. Specifically, it's not always easy to acknowledge that a problem is occurring. I was reflecting a few…
Reflecting on… reflection.
I don't know if I will ever stop talking about self-reflection itself, but something new came up this morning as I was reflecting on my past few weeks. There are times when I sit down, reflect on something, and move forward with the mindset that comes from that reflection. I've learned that I don't…
Mindful of my mindset.
It's always funny to catch yourself in the midst of thought. I find myself "spaced out" in thought sometimes - then I realize I'm doing it and snap out of it. I've always tried to maintain focus when I'm diving into my thoughts. Lately, I haven't had to catch myself in the middle of…
How patience becomes easier.
"Patience is a virtue." As I've discussed before, I have been in a period where I've had to wait for things to come. I knew they were coming (and they were good things), but I couldn't do anything about them because it wasn't time yet. Now that the time has come for these things…
There’s always something to be thankful for.
Unfortunately, I am feeling a bit sick today. Being sick is obviously not ideal, but the mindset that you have can go a long way in the path to getting better. Earlier in the day, I caught myself sulking in the fact that I'm not feeling well. I didn't really do much about it. Once…

Bound and determined not to be bound.
As I continue to reflect on my goals/reminders for myself in 2020 and look at my current to-do list, things can become stressful. I don't handle stress the best, but I start to handle it better when I take a step back... So that's what I did today. The step back I took today…
2020: Reminders instead of resolutions.
2020 has arrived! I am super excited about the upcoming year, as I have a lot going on that I can't want to be a part of. When I was thinking about my personal, health, and work goals for 2020, I started to write them as resolutions... things I wanted to "change" or "add"…
Christmas Eve Jitters.
Hello everyone! Before I get into the meat and potatoes, I want to wish everyone a Merry Christmas Eve today and a Merry Christmas tomorrow. For those of you who don't celebrate Christmas, I wish you a Happy Holidays. I hope that the holiday season is enjoyable as you spend time with family and friends.…
