So often, I feel like I am living life at full speed. I have goals, progress, and changes I am working towards. I am in the last stretch of my current school year, and I am eagerly looking towards summer and all the things I will be able to do with more time. I also … Continue reading One Day at a Time

Mindful Decisions
I feel this year has been off to a different start in a good way. I feel more motivated to complete goals and try to make improvements in my life. Even though we are only three months into the year, I feel I can already see the changes that are occurring. Because I am so … Continue reading Mindful Decisions
Soft Days
This is a term I've come up with for myself, and it's something I'm starting to really love. As I was researching in making sure this wasn't anything else to avoid confusion, I came across the 75 Hard and the 75 Soft. Those refer to following certain health plans for 75 days to help your … Continue reading Soft Days
Allow Room for Growth
Growth, progress, and change are all topics I talk about often on here. Today, I want to approach this topic in a different manner. Not only do we have to be willing to grow, we also have to allow room for growth. Plants can't grow if there's no room. In the same way, you can't … Continue reading Allow Room for Growth

But in the spirit of Valentine's Day, I want to talk about something that my partner and I both do in the hopes that it will encourage and inspire you in your relationships, … Continue reading A Partner’s Support
History of the Super Bowl
Here in America, it is the week of the Super Bowl. This is the culmination of the professional football season. I want to provide a history lesson of how we got to this point ahead of the game itself. As I've talked about before, games and sports have an incredibly long history. People have been … Continue reading History of the Super Bowl
Time and Effort
I think, sometimes, a lot of people mix up or interchange the words time and effort. While these two are related, they're not always the same thing. I hear people tell me I do a lot, and I definitely do. But some of the things that I do don't take a lot of time or … Continue reading Time and Effort
Small Steps, Big Changes
The new year is in full swing. I'm working on the goals I've implemented for myself this year. I'm creating and improving routines so that I can make this year better for myself overall. However, I am changing my approach this year as opposed to in years past. Normally, I set myself up for failure … Continue reading Small Steps, Big Changes
