Something that I believe that is very important is achieving a balance. I think of this mentally - how is your life positioned? How does it make you feel? Is something overwhelming you or do you feel like a piece is not there enough? When we can start to answer those questions, we can begin…

Push and Pull.
As The Masters Tournament begins today in the world of golf, many life lessons I've learned from 16+ years of golfing begin circling in my head during a moment of reflection. As I watched the beginning of the broadcast, I saw a few players hit some wayward shots, and as the broadcasters analyzed these misses,…
Featured Focus.
There are hundreds of things that come to our mind each day. As we maneuver through tasks and challenges that the day provides us, we shift our focus with those changes in action. However, our focus doesn't always lock in properly to what is in front of us. We have distractions - we have emotions…

Motivating Milestones.
I've been thinking a lot about my goals lately. I have new goals every day and oftentimes, they change based on what is going on around me/in my life. We should always be motivated to reach our goals, but sometimes I find myself just "hoping" that my goals are achieved. It's not that I don't…
Staying busy.
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…
Learning and doing my best.
Today is my first day at my internship. Naturally, I have some butterflies. Those butterflies aren't rooted in fear - just the uncomfortable feeling of doing something new. When new opportunities come into our lives, we have to realize we don't know much at that moment about what we are doing. We have to be…
