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

The History of Presidents’ Day
Here in the United States, yesterday was Presidents' Day. We honor a few American presidents because their birthdays were in February. Over time, it has expanded to a day off for certain groups of people and big sales from stores. I want to give a history of the holiday, and why we celebrate a day … Continue reading The History of Presidents’ Day
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
New Year, New Clean
You've probably heard the phrase, "New Year, New Me." I want to take that phrase and change it up a bit (hence the title of this post). See while I hope to improve myself this year, I'm not looking to become entirely "new". I mostly like who I am, and I have goals to help … Continue reading New Year, New Clean

Happy New Year! 2023 is officially done and we are starting 2024! This is the time for new ideas, goals, and resolutions. I've mentioned on here a number of times how I feel resolutions aren't things you plan to keep. You make them only to break them or ignore them when times get hard. For … Continue reading Goals for 2024
A Wrap-up of 2023
This will be my last post of 2023 because I will not post in between Christmas and New Year's. But it is the end of another year! Time is such a funny thing in that it keeps moving whether or not you want it to. I want to take today and maybe slow down time … Continue reading A Wrap-up of 2023
Challenge Your Thoughts
As the year wraps up to a close, I'm spending time to review and reflect some of the things I've learned this year and lessons I'll take with me to the future. I'll do this more in-depth next week as I wrap up the year in a whole. But I want to take today to … Continue reading Challenge Your Thoughts
Changing Course
Did you know that ships plot a course even before they leave port? They know the routes they're going to take. But sometimes it's necessary to change course. Life throws curveballs. Things don't work out. Passions, hobbies, and interests change. That's okay. Sometimes you as a person need to change course too. What's really cool, … Continue reading Changing Course
Put in the Work
Last week, I talked about projects and how they help you reach your goals. Projects are great! But today, I want to talk about the three steps to making those projects work for you, with the emphasis on being able to put in the work to accomplish the projects. The first step is that you … Continue reading Put in the Work
