Rise and Grind: 8 Morning Habits for the Ambitious
When asked what the key to success is, everyone will tell you something different. Hard work. Determination. Vision. Ambition. None of them are wrong. There is no right or wrong answer because success means something different to everyone. The man who puts on his work boots every morning has a different drive in life than the man who wears a suit and tie. The stay at home mom has different goals than the career woman. Does that mean one is less successful than the other? No. Put all money, all materialistic things aside because they are superficial. Success isn’t all that. It’s achieving an aim or purpose in life. It’s following your ambition. So, no matter who you are, where you come from, what you do for a living, everyone has the power to get where they want to be, and become who they want to be. See, successful people have a high sense of self, that’s why accomplishing their goals comes naturally to them. The rest of us just need a little boost in the right direction. So let’s get started.

"I Am"
"Ahum de LeeLa:" To be in God's light. From this, I was named. A simple four letter word, attached to my soul to ripple energy out into the universe. "Ahum de Leela," "Ahum de Leela," "Ahum de Leela." Repeated three times for the mind, the body, and the soul. Repeated throughout my life to remind me that I AM in God's light. (I have a confession to make, as a child, I hated my name, I insisted being called something different. I think that I was not ready to take on the energy that is attached to it.) It took me until college to grow into it and now embrace its meaning and powers.

A Message for the Younger Generation
I’m a bicentennial baby. Yes, I was born in 1976. My parents are Army vets. Yes, I said Army vets. I grew up in a caring household. My parents weren’t overly strict, but they also didn’t let me do whatever I wanted whenever I wanted. They set boundaries to ensure that we were safe. They taught me morals and values. I had a healthy balance of dependence and independence. I knew that if I wanted any success in life that I would have to work at myself. Nothing was handed to me. My parents taught me how to be responsible for myself and for my actions. If I did something wrong, I had to own up to it. There was no “all inclusion” for things. If we wanted to be a part of something we had to try out for it, or meet certain criteria for it. When I go to work, I know that I have to perform my best if I want to be a good employee. I’ve noticed that things aren’t like that with the younger generation. I’ve noticed myself clashing a lot with the younger adults of today.

There Is Strength in Weakness
Imagine an ice sculpture of a swan. Each curve, each detailed carving in the wings, the beak, the arch of the neck, every aspect formed to realistic perfection. But behind the awe of it, there is fragility in beauty and this seemingly flawless masterpiece isn’t without defect. Its weakness is the very thing that makes it beautiful, the fact that it’s made of something so easily broken.

Finding Your Bliss in Chaos
I briefly caught up with some creative friends this week, which is crazy rare for me these days because I hardly leave the house. Why would I want to? I have a lovely modern apartment with a north facing view from a quaint balcony that gets drenched in sunlight all day long. For me, this is bliss.

How to Make Money Doing What You Love
Today, I wanted to talk about the idea of doing what you love while getting paid for it, because from my own experience, it seems that so many people are just worried about making a living, which really isn't all that hard to do, but we over complicate things greatly, and then we can't seem to step outside of our comfort zone to go towards a life of greatness, because playing it safe is comfortable, but far less fulfilling.
