We – well most of us – fall victim to living out our lives and sharing every moment on social media. With our 837 “best” friends that we haven’t seen or actually spoken with in 15 years or maybe haven’t even met. We see the perfect moment and just can’t help ourselves. We have to…
Sure. Those rainy days and lazy days can help your mind rest, relax, and re-energize. But they are really just stopgaps. Moments when we do what we need to do to keep ourselves moving. When we were working, we needed more than just a day here or a day there to keep moving. We needed…
We all have habits. But not all habits are created equal. We have good habits, and we have bad habits. Unfortunately, it seems like the bad habits are easier to form than the good habits. Probably because, even though they are bad for us, we tend to find them more enjoyable than what we consider…
There’s an old saying that you can’t teach an old dog new tricks. Maybe if that dog is of the canine variety, that’s true. I mean, they do tend to get a bit lazy and just want to eat and sleep in their golden years. But for us old dogs that are human? That’s simply…

Hopefully you’ve been able to establish a rhythm to your day. You’ve figured out what needs to be done on a daily basis, what needs to be done every couple of days. How each of your days will and need to play out. And you have also figured out that you have some free time…
Maybe we try to fool ourselves into thinking we only need to do those nasty projects that always exist in our lives once a year by calling them spring cleaning. The reality is, they exist in every season, and all the time. And they don’t always take the form of cleaning. Think about it. You…
You might not want to. Actually, you probably don’t want to. Instead, you probably want to just give in to that desire each morning to just stay curled up under the covers. Pretending that if you just stay asleep, when you wake up, everything will be back to the way it was. But it’s not.…
Whenever I hear the word hustle, I automatically think of Pitbull’s lyric in Usher’s DJ Got Us Falling in Love. You know the one. “I’m a hustler baby, but that you knew. And tonight it’s just me and you.” Pitbull is referring to a different type of hustle in this instance, but being a hustler…
