Today might have been the quietest day I have ever experienced. My office was empty at work. I focused on using that time to be productive. My apartment was peaceful, just watching the cars through the now leafless trees at sunset. Went on a walk with my dog and didn't see a single person during…
Time is a great metaphor, a great reminder, and a great asset to our lives. I find myself often looking at the clock in thankfulness rather than anxiety. We have many pieces in life that we make time for. We always have some time as the clock spins. The clock, to me, is a helpful…
One of the things I have wrestled with the most throughout my life is overthinking. For as long as I can remember, I often put my mind through stress by getting stuck on the idea of something and continuing to flood my brain with thoughts (whether positive or negative). We all do this as humans.…
A lesson I am learning is that time always seems to move faster and faster. It does in fact fly. Many times in Mac Miller's music, arguably my favorite musician of all-time, he uttered the line "Time flies... try and catch it." Although this is a cliché, it always rang true each time I heard…
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…

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…
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…
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. Some are more productive in the sunshine - some more productive in the rain. Some more productive in the noise…
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…
