Sorry gentlemen, this one goes out to all the pussy cats out there… Shark week is rounding the corner and you’re feeling fatigued, bloated, irritable and unreasonably sensitive. We’ve all been there- amidst a sudden pool of tears, a confused man asking, “why are you crying?” Only to respond, equally as baffled, “I don’t know.” Welcome to the wonderful world of womanhood! Sorry ladies, being a woman does not entitle you to a monthly ‘get out of jail free card.’ Yes, hormones a

Focusing on the negative- Get accustomed to giving gratitude daily.  Try writing down 3 things you’re grateful for right before going to bed.  This practice will invite peaceful slumber and promote fresh perspective. Drinking to cope- It’s no surprise that depressants encourage depression. Isolating yourself- Involve yourself.  Give back.  Participate in a community event.  Volunteer.  Engaging with others through service is a wonderful way to meet like-minded people while fe

Struggling from perpetual impatience, I believe my dreams CAN’T wait.  Pressuring myself to execute with efficiency, generally leads to unreasonably high expectations.  My latest focus has been one of entrepreneural endeavours.  I’ve been reading, breathing and dreaming in business.  Regardless of my obsessive compulsive behavior, I often experience disappointment in my efforts, feeling discouraged that I’m not putting in enough time and energy into their actualization.

So what?  What does it matter if we still must abide by the rules of a collective cognition?  What I extrapolated from this was quite simple and certainly nothing new… Thoughts Become Things Too often we discredit the power of the mind.  We are capable of willing into action.  But first, you must believe! I know what you’re thinking, sounds like some hokey secret garbage.  I get it, I was a skeptic as well, that is until I began manifesting… 8 months ago I was struck by an ov

It’s easy to get caught up in a monotonous cycle of obligatory living.  24 hours never feels like enough time to complete every task on the list.  Looming productivity drives attention, focus and progression.
