Awareness
I took a hot yoga class tonight. I could write about that in itself but my biggest take away of the class is awareness. The instructor stressed it a dozen times. From what I gathered, she was stressing awareness and for mediation and stretching. Being aware of the thoughts you may have, acknowledging them, and […]

Sunday Summary (12/17/17)
I’m a man of routine and enjoy having set schedules. So introducing my newest routine, the “Sunday Summary” (Name pending). Essentially, its completely inspired by the Tim Ferris 5 Bullet Friday.

Becoming Your Ideal Self
“One day at a time, live the life the way the man you want to become would” I recently read a quote that loosely translated to the above. It probably was worded better too. Anyway, It really resonated with me. We all have people or figures we look up to. Or envision an idea self […]

My Go-To Saying For Awkward Conversations. And any other
“I hear ya” The most multi-functional saying in my daily vocabulary. I say it it nearly every conversation. And its not one of those habits like saying “Do you know what I mean” that your mother tells you to stop saying all the time. Because if she does, shes wrong. This one is far too […]

Measuring Progress and Enjoying the Process
I have a hard time trusting the process. I, like many others, want immediate results. Its so easy for me to get discouraged thinking how long it will take to reach the “end result”. Be it as simple as homework, college degree, a relationship, a new deadlift PR, or “success” it self. Most goals worth […]

Forcing Eye Contact
This is a skill that I work on every single day and situation. I came across Gabrielle Reece’s advice of “going first” from a friend. Which, after some looking into, found out is also touched upon in Tim Ferriss’ Tools of Titans. So whats that, 4 degrees of separation? Gabrielle explains it as… “I always say […]
