As I often talk about planning, I am looking at each hour of the day to see what I can accomplish. The goal: Trying to segment my time into reasonable increments to help achieve what I'm trying to achieve for the day. Of course, not every hour is full. We need to schedule our breaks…

I feel like all of us have that thing in life that bothers us way more than it should. When I was younger, when I would drop something on the floor (for example, the reoccurring fall was my toothbrush), it would really frustrate me. Whether it was something breakable or not, I would always become…
Slow it down.
Life moves fast. Every day, we find moments where we are in a sprint in order to keep up with life. However, we also have moments in a day that we can take a breath - analyze - slow it all down. Those moments are just as important as when we have to keep up.…
Current(s).
If there was one central "theme word" of my life that I had to choose, it would be "Presence". I feel as if it is a recurring theme in a lot of my writing and speaking, too. I am constantly making a concerted effort to live in the moment - to take in and experience…

As someone who is constantly planning and setting goals, I am looking at where I want to be in the future and the steps I should take to try and reach that point. They always talk about "enjoying the grind" and just trusting your process. I have truly found the importance of this thought process.…
Turning detours into determination.

Mindful Steps.
When I am in the midst of a challenge, I try to use whatever time I have available to think about my next step(s). Sometimes that's a few seconds, sometimes that's a few days. No matter how much time I have, my process seems to work the same each time. Observe - analyze - plan…
Don’t stray.
We are a little over a month into 2021, so I started reflecting on my goals I set for myself on the 1st of the year. I reflected on them not so much to look at my progress thus far, but to remind myself of what I'm working towards. Each goal I set for myself…
Hide and Seek.
You would think that what comes next in life would be easy to see. It should be right in front of you, right? Well, it usually doesn't end up being what was thought to be next for us. Other times, we can't even find what's next. We feel stuck - we feel as if we…
Belief.
As you may have seen on my social media recently, I am beginning to make an emphasis on what I believe in. We all have a lot of beliefs, but this specific belief I am talking about comes from what I believe I can do in the world. I want to use my platforms, my…
