The Big Picture
As many have said before, life is such a roller coaster of ups and downs. Why are all these negative things happening? Why can't I do anything right? My life is full of mistakes and hardships, just like the next person. However, I finally came to a realization that has changed my life. How to have true optimism.

The Legitimate Dollar
Friends, family, even the stranger you walk past everyday would find it ever so laughable that you think you’ll ever become rich. I suppose most people might pat you on the back and tell you to get real. Ironically, they'll also tell you with conviction to follow your dreams. As if your dream can’t grow into something lucrative. Everything that has to do with money interests me. It’s how we eat, clothe ourselves, travel, etc, etc. Our world is so heavily dependent on some pieces of paper that you’ve gotta be quite preoccupied not to take interest in it.

No Need to #RESIST
Play is natural. Must we grow up into rigid, old, serious waddlehumps? No. We needn’t have to. What is it that creates rigid holding in our systems? Is it trauma? Is it painful life experience that hardens us? Is it a protection against the world, a distrust of life? If so, how can one work with that suffocating overprotection within one's individualized system?

3 Tips to Finding Your Motivation
Is it just me, or has anyone started a new health routine with the intentions of never looking back? Only to be met with the sad disappointment about two weeks later, when your strict willpower slowly wears away with every small slip-up, eventually bringing you back to where you were before you started this health routine? I've done this COUNTLESS amounts of times. Eventually, it gets really frustrating. You wish you could just find the momentum to keep you going.

On Creativity
To be creative is quite literally the "use of the imagination or original ideas to create something," and in a time where many feel at a loss for both, creativity is needed more than ever. That isn't to say, however, that creativity is dead or dying; it has simply taken a backseat in a modern life that demands so much of each of us. We can't be blamed entirely; when it feels as if the weight of the world is on our shoulders, we tend to think logically rather than creatively, and strive to solve the problem alone. This is where we begin to go wrong.

The Struggle of a Young Filmmaker
I am just like any other novice screenwriter out there, but like many in this type of business, I feel like we never truly give up on our ridiculous ideas. There are never such things as stupid ideas when brainstorming. One of my biggest idols is Mr. Spielberg himself and he once said that he would prefer someone who is all about the story and make sure it is well rounded than someone who knows everything about working the camera. That holds true to this day for me. I always like to draw inspiration from my favorite filmmakers, but I always seek for originality and brand new things that the big screen has never seen.

Climb Your Mountain
Dear Daydreamer, Every day comes with its share of adventures and experiences no matter how simple or extravagant they may be.

Inner Thoughts
Up until this point, I was pretty convinced that I had become a strong individual. I could easily admit that I had lived though many challenges and obstacles in which I felt most individuals would not experience in life. I had a sense of pride, along with a sense of accomplishment and yet a desire for more. I would argue the roughest and toughest down with no hesitation...

Things I Wish I Knew When I Was Younger
1. Life is not some game where everyone must strive towards perfection in order to win. You do not need to reach those ridiculous standards society has created and you most certainly do not need to refer to those standards as goals to set for yourself. You are rare and extraordinarily beautiful just the way you are, and if society doesn’t accept that you may be under or over the proposed body mass index or have a slightly larger nose or crooked smile or scars or acne or a flat chest, they are the ones who need a change of heart. Don’t change for them, even if that means “losing” in the eyes of society.

Why You Should Wake up Early
Some of you may be reading this saying to yourself, "Yeah right," "Next," "This girl's crazy." Yeah, yeah, I get it. I hear it enough from my own friends. But really, think about it, and this isn't just the farmer in me saying it—if you wake up early every morning, you're going to feel better about yourself.
