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"…
Over the past 24 hours, I've been very critical of myself. I am being nitpicky about what I want to be better at, what I need to "fix". Originally, it was solely in a negative outlook. I was looking at these things in my life and viewing them as "you're not good enough". It…
It's amazing how 24 hours ago I was flying through 1,000,000 thoughts and this morning I'm bopping to some music and loving life. I'd say my mood changed 5 times yesterday. My mind is just a constant switch, that sometimes I don't have control of. But, at the same time, I feel like I do…
Unfortunately, I'm starting the week off sick. Coughing, stuffed up and feeling a bit weak. Overall, just not a good time! However, I am reminded of my work ethic and that I can easily make my way through this. (I kinda have to because I have a busier school week). Nonetheless, I want to…
I am nearing, or experiencing, a lot of "lasts". The final part of my term as Vice President of my fraternity. The final month of college classes in my undergraduate college experience. The final semester of college golf. The final week until I turn 21 (I'm just getting old). It's all, of course,…

I have a word document that I consistently update titled "Life". It is a compilation of things in life that I love, that I don't love, that I have learned about myself, what I want going forward, what I thought about the past, bucket lists, reminders, and much more. It's a bunch of lists about…
Throughout my golf career, I learned a valuable lesson each time I played: I play better, physically and mentally, when I am focused on the present. Don't focus on the bad shot I hit 2 holes ago, and don't focus on the difficult hole that is coming up. Focus on the task at hand. One…
This summer taught me something important that I need to focus on and remember: I need to chill more often. And this goes further than escaping the Missouri humidity - I find myself wrapped in anxiety and nerves that don't need to be there. Some anxiety and nervousness is natural - it will happen whenever…
Golf season is right around the corner, and for most of the summer, my swing has felt weird. Not bad, just weird. After hearing from a few people that have watched my swing and working on some things, my hands seem to be moving quicker than my body. I'm not in sync! When I was…
