In life, I value connectionships. Yeah, that's not really a word, but let me explain what a connectionship is to me - we all have them. I have relationships with many people in my life - coworkers, family, friends, alumni, my girlfriend, etc. However, I don't have a true connection with all of those relationships.…
With the amount of tasks that each of us have to do every day, it can often appear overwhelming. It's never fun to wake up and immediately feel stressed. However, I often find that breaking it down into "simple" steps helps guide me through a day. Whether the day is incredibly busy or completely tame,…
Sometimes a few words can make all the difference. A few years ago, when I start getting into the blogging/personal writing space and taking time for self-reflection, I realized that I often struggled with understanding my own thoughts. Our thoughts really can race, and when it feels like we only have a few moments to…
Sometimes our surroundings can mean everything. They can dictate our mood, our schedule, our plans. Whether these be in weather, in city, in work, in people, in home - it can all mean so much.

As the page turns from 2020 to 2021, we are all eager to see what comes next. The text on everyone's page will look different, but I wanted to discuss our outlooks on the new year (and really, our individual futures in general). I personally spent some time earlier this week writing down my goals…
In reflecting on the thanksgiving holiday and the year 2020 beginning to wrap up, I have been reminded lately of the many things I am grateful and thankful for in my life. I wanted to take a moment to thank you all, my readers, for being a part of my life's journey. I am thankful…
As an avid golfer for most of my life, I understand the importance of the follow through. When I swing a golf club, I know that a good follow through is the final piece of the puzzle in terms of getting the ball to where I want it to go: The target. So, when transferring…
Every day, I find many things in front of me that are new. When seeking knowledge or experience on new things in our lives, we have questions. I have noticed something about myself that has changed over time when it comes to "questions" - I used to be afraid to ask questions, because I feared…
Change is a big deal... A big, sometimes scary word. When something in our life shifts, we have a lot of things to adjust for. Especially when these things come quickly, we have to be willing to adapt and pivot in a timely manner. However, sometimes that is hard. Any time that our life is…
