I read an article on Jeff Bezos about a month ago and there was part of it that really stuck with me. He basically said that the fall of Amazon was coming and that all he could do was delay it for as long as possible. I don't know what it was about his words … Continue reading Bezos, Amazon and temporary things

What do you want to be known for?
It's a question worth asking and I'd go so far as to call it mandatory for anyone that puts out content online. Whether you're a blogger, podcaster, writer, social media influencer, youtuber, IGTVer etc. Having an intention or some sort of direction will be incredibly beneficial. It helps you figure out what you want to … Continue reading What do you want to be known for?

I think that most of us want to do something with our lives that matters to us as it gives us that feeling of significance, it gives … Continue reading Plans aren’t enough
Work break
A sign that you might be in the wrong job is how you feel when you take time off. Is the work break like an escape from your dreary everyday reality that you dread going back to. Or is it time to relax and recharge but you actually look forward to going back. Career happiness … Continue reading Work break
A simple act of nothingness
I was recently reminded that no, I do not always need to push through and continue on as normal if I'm not feeling well. I decided to take a much needed break and just rest. I lay in bed and drifted in and out of slumber, reflected on how I was feeling within myself and … Continue reading A simple act of nothingness
Growth
Some things are easy and others not so much. Even though we often find ourselves wanting to drag our feet through the challenges we face because we're certain we don't want them, the truth is that from these challenges growth occurs. And I think growth is always a good thing.
