What is the VERY FIRST thing that you do every morning when you wake up?I’m talking immediately after you wake up. While you’re still in bed. That first moment of consciousness. Do you wonder what time it is? Do you reach for your phone? Do you wonder if you should go back to bed? Is … Continue reading The first thing I do every morning to love myself
Make yourself your top priority
Nothing should come before your own needs I believe we should all be a bit more selfish. We should all prioritize our own needs. We should take care of ourselves before taking care of other people. I was recently reading the book “12 Rules for Life” by Jordan Peterson, and he has a chapter about … Continue reading Make yourself your top priority
Overflow your cup of self love
You can only love someone else if you have an excess of love for yourself. I recently watched a video of Lisa Nichols that inspired the living hell out of me. In this video she talks about how we need to “serve from our overflow” - That you can only give love to others when your … Continue reading Overflow your cup of self love
Moods are like diseases
Whether we like it or not, we’re all sending and receiving frequencies of energy from each other when we interact with each other. This is why some people can pump you up. Others can leave you drained. Some can leave you sad or angry. Others can leave you happy and calm. It's why we say … Continue reading Moods are like diseases
Energetic Empathy
My “bagunça-ness” For much of my life I’ve been a messy person. I don’t pick up after myself. My room is usually full of empty cups, my clothes are hanging up on my furniture, and I’ve never been in the habit of making my bed. Over the years while living on my own I like … Continue reading Energetic Empathy

Controlled Confrontation – The art of handling difficult conversations
The vast majority of people I meet are averse to confrontation. They fear an argument. They avoid it with all of their willpower. People often look at arguments and confrontations as a BAD thing. If people are arguing, something is wrong. And for good reason - who wants to spend their day locked in heated … Continue reading Controlled Confrontation – The art of handling difficult conversations
If you’re hard on yourself you’re probably hard on others
I’m someone who is very hard on myself. I hold myself to high standards. I expect myself to perform at my best at all times. When I don’t, I become frustrated. When I do, I barely even notice my good performance because I’m too focused on the future and overlooking the present. Unfortunately, while this … Continue reading If you’re hard on yourself you’re probably hard on others
Give people the opportunity to surprise you
Goal setting is an important part of your business, but not for the reasons that you think it is. There’s a famous study (that I can’t find right now but you probably can) in which they found that people who exercised for only 5 minutes per day were more likely to build a habit than … Continue reading Give people the opportunity to surprise you
Friends and family are the worst people to pitch your business ideas
When starting a business the first people we (usually) jump to for feedback are friends and family. They are the quickest and most reliable people to get feedback from. Easiest way to get people to try your potential product. However, I think that this is dangerous. I believe that friends and family are not reliable … Continue reading Friends and family are the worst people to pitch your business ideas
