Once you trust yourself, the world opens up to you. Those opportunities you’ve been dying to have and the better life you seek all come to you when you finally realize that you’re capable. The universe doesn’t give you what you want. The universe gives you what you can handle. People often reply by telling […]

Emotional vampires drain you of the life force necessary to live a happy, healthy, and meaningful life. Some types of emotional vampires are easy to spot. Others hide in plain sight. People grossly underestimate the impact their environment has on their life. I know the ‘five people you spend the most time with’ idea is […]

It’s my birthday today. At 25 I was a reckless kid doing everything possible to fuck up his life. I decided I wanted to move in a different direction. 7 years later at 32, I became exactly who I always knew I could be. There’s always time, but you have to start. I’ve learned a […]

It’s amazing, the extent to which, you will go well out of your way to find refuge in your own bullshit. I’m in the same boat as you. I treat it like a 24/7 job to unravel my own B.S., but I’m human. And human beings have this way of being able to fully logically […]

It’s the difference between living the life you want to live deep down or continuing to remain on the sidelines — afraid to do all of the things you’d do if you just had a little bit more confidence, certainty, and conviction.
