Every day, I feel like I am pushed and pulled by people, things, and life into different directions, different mindsets. I talk a lot about keeping a constant focus on your goals, but the best way to do that is to remain yourself through all of the pushing and pulling. People, things, life will get…
In life, we develop many connections. These connections can be to people, to activities, to feelings, etc. We get to a certain point of life where we learn what connections feel right and what connections feel off. We get to a point where a combination of our feelings and our knowledge give us the insight…
It's funny watching lingo change over time. Words can change meaning quickly and keeping up with the times can become difficult if you aren't plugged in. A word that is thrown around a lot is "vibe". When I think about how people use "that is a vibe" or simply commenting "vibes" on social posts, it…

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,…
Any time that something happens in our lives, the question always seems to be "Why?" Why did that happen? Why do I feel this way? Why is that person acting that way? Why now? I have learned how to look at my "Why?" questions as a whole piece. My why's have become an acronym of…
