Have you ever been driving along on the freeway and up in the distance you see something that sets off a process in your mind? You begin to tense up, most likely get annoyed and irritated, and immediately you start trying to make a decision. Traffic not only causes irritation but possible tardiness which can…

I haven’t felt much like writing lately. I have had a hard time finding my voice because I’ve been too painfully aware of my flaws. I certainly don’t have everything figured out, so I have felt like, “who am I to put my ideas out there or give anyone advice about anything?” But I realized…

Life is replete with challenges, problems, difficulties, issues. Life also has blessings, miracles, good-times, and enjoyment. We can go from the highest of highs to the lowest of lows in the blink of an eye. We can go from the lowest of lows to the highest of highs as well. There are things that happen to…

What are you good at? Is there something that you consider yourself pretty adapt at? Have you ever wondered why?

Life should be easier, shouldn’t it? The answer is up to you. I’ll tell you what I think, I think life is as easy as I decide it to be. My life is my life. I’m still young but I will say I’ve lived a long time. I have learned a lot thus far. I have…

Life will be as hard, boring, negative, slow, and unsuccessful as we choose. Conversely, life will be as easy, fun, positive, controlled, and successful as we choose. Take a moment to think about how many decisions you make every day. How many of those decisions require effort? How many of them are significant? How many negatively…

Written by Nichole Graham I went running this morning. I enjoy distance running because it forces me to focus on the moment. From my experience, it’s very hard to run a marathon constantly measuring how far you are from the end. Of course, I keep it somewhere in the back of my mind because, obviously,…

I have found myself “waking-up,” so to speak, from a dream where 1 year of my life just passed without a single thing accomplished. What happened over the past 12 months? I don’t remember doing anything substantial, where was I? This happens because we live our lives on autopilot. We turn our minds off and…
