Yesterday, I started to plan for my final semester of college (I can't believe it started today!). I've always loved planning things out and maintaining organization. It always seems to bring me a sense of peace, a sense of control, and de-stresses my life. However, a thought crossed my mind as I was…
How do you deal with good news? Whenever I hear or experience something good, I try to do two things: Embrace the moment (stay present). Reflect on why it made me feel good. I have previously struggled with both of those things, but in the past few months, I've dealt with success well.…
"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…
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…

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"…
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.…
