Write Your Own Legacy
Imagine a book with several billion pages, each page having a unique story engraved onto its delicate pages. With each flip of a page, there is a different font, different images, and a different energy that is emitted from each message. There are no two stories that are exactly alike, each being its own original that cannot possibly be replicated. Each is special. Beautiful in its uniqueness. Magnificent in its simplicity.

Little Leaps of Faith
In my belief and experience as a college student, paying your way through college isn't easy, but thankfully God provided a job to pay the bills! Although I am not a social butterfly always eager to talk to people or meet new people, or even being a customer service agent, I don't think manual labor is the easiest job in the world either.

The F.I.M.I. Theory Explained
What is the F.I.M.I. Theory? The F.I.M.I. Theory is a well-known one. It's a simple, yet powerful, phrase: "Fake it 'til you make it". Simply put, faking it until you make it is a way of saying to pretend you are/have what you want until that thing is actually procured. Even more simply put, it means pretend you are what and who you want to be until it becomes a reality.

Clowns and Men
Like most children, I have a monster under the bed. (I say "have" because they still unnerve me to this day.) My monster under the bed is the simple Clown. There is really no story to this fear, no trauma as a child to talk about. I just started to fear them. My father's first gift to me was a porcelain clown. When the Clown Craze in 2016 occurred it was my worst nightmare in real life and it didn't help that I found out from my father while at the mall parking lot at 9 PM. And with the remake of IT late last year, I wasn't having any of it. Just looking up the dates of the clown sightings I got uneasy with the clown pictures that popped up with the articles.

Stress Out ⇨
Gone are the days when we could simply just step back and take a breather. No longer is it just a matter of taking a quick 5 second timeout to destress your brain. Things have changed. More and more things make us stress and where there are more things, there are more ways.

The Difference Between a Life Goal and a Career Goal
"What do you want to be when you grow up?" How many times did you hear that question as a kid? If you were like me, after what felt like a thousand times, you got a little frustrated being asked that question. It is a crucial question though, and one that shouldn't be taken lightly; but perhaps, we're asking the question wrong. Now don't misunderstand me, I'm not condescendingly preaching at all those who ask that question and say they should stop asking it; however, that question often carries over in these kids' minds when they have to grow up and take it seriously, and I think it's the wrong question to ask. Instead, I think the proper question is, "What do you want to do with your life?"

You're Not Shit. Society Is.
Before you think you might have a mental illness, read this. So you've noticed that you're not quite feeling yourself lately. Maybe you can't focus on anything, enjoy the things you once did, sleep or eat as well... perhaps you might be thinking that there's something wrong with you. There could very well be, but before you come to this conclusion, there's something everyone needs to look at.

Grounded Goal Setting
Sometimes it can feel like everyone around us is easily achieving great success, when in truth, every individual has relevant struggles when it comes to goal setting. Only you can know the true depth of your motivations, no matter what category your goals fit into. They could revolve around dieting, workout plans, academia, a career, or any variety of other things. Or, in some cases, all of the above.

Five Controversial Things I Wish I Knew at 15
So I recently wrote a post called "Five Things I Wish I Knew at Fifteen," all but few were surprising, common sense perhaps with a few twists, however I wanted this post to highlight things we feel we probably shouldn’t do at fifteen but are actually just a part of growing up, so here it goes.
