The question to ask yourself every morning
TI woke up and thought, “What is one thing that I can do that will bring me closer to my goals?” The answer was exercise. I got that done. It is almost as if whatever happens today, I was successful. Where I got this idea from was from, I’m not quite sure. Was it a…

Does future you really need those jeans?
Perhaps you are like me and trying to figure out how to save money. Well, one way might be to stop buying so many things for future you. You know who I mean. That person you hope to one day be. The one wears a different size, the one who goes to fancy dinners, the…

Laziness is a choice that I want to make more often
At the end of the day, my invisible to-do list haunts me. It is full of all the items that I knew I should have done but didn’t remember to do or simply put off in favor of something else. I spent the day doing things, exhausting myself, but I had nothing of value to…

This is the best I’ve got for today
I am struggling to come up with an idea of what to write about today. All of my ideas seem to be taking a lovely vacation. They didn’t put in any notice. I am left here to just wing it, I guess. I wish creativity were something I could keep in a box. I wish…

Plant the tree
In an age of teen-aged TikTok millionaires, I can’t help but feel like I missed the boat on success, and I’m not even sure where the dock was. Looking at the business ventures and massive houses that people barely out of high school have secured, I wonder if I am too late. I’m not saying…

I am now convinced
I am fairly certain that the affliction that you are not good enough is only experienced by those who most certainly are. And that those who believe they are of no use are those who bring the most value. Those who fear they are most unloveable are already loved deeply. Those who believe their life…

Dissecting my success
Coming off a successful one year streak of posting, I got curious. What exactly was it that made me successful in building this habit, whereas I fell off in other attempts? Really, first I affirmed that I am in fact not lazy and can get things done under the right conditions. And then I started…
